Speech is an important tool to run worldly life, isn’t it? But often our speech gets misused & wasted when we use negative speech or when we use our speech in wrong place. Param Pujya Dada Bhagwan has revealed secret by which good or bad speech comes forth. This edition of Dadavani focuses on fault of backbiting that arises through speech - what is backbiting, difference between backbiting & criticism, basis through which backbiting happens, opinions that have been formed behind it, relationship between backbiting & rivalry, etc. At the root, ego indeed prevails in the fault of backbiting. Backbiting about a person happens when there are negative opinions about that person. Backbiting is a large obstructive fault on path of spirituality. For danger of backbiting, Param Pujya Dada Bhagwan says, “By backbiting for an hour, a human being binds eight lives as an animal.” This edition of Dadavani will help reader to understand dangers of backbiting & criticism and to turn back from them.
