Priya Nath had seen how the faith of devotees went up, each time they were in trouble and their prayers were answered, and how they lost faith when their prayers were not answered, or else they were called upon to make even the slightest of sacrifices for the sake of Shri Nathji.“Priyaji, jo log kaihte hain ke unkaa“Priyaji, those people who say that they have lost faith, did not in fact have any faith to start with!”Shri Nathji had also said: “Faith is not that which you can acquire and lose. Faith is that which grips you! “This carpet is red, your eyes see it as red. You have faith in the fact that the carpet is red. It is not you who are calling the carpet red, it is the red colour of the carpet which forces you to say that it is red. Carpet “Even if out of fear of someone, you call the carpet green, your heart will still bear witness to the fact that it is red!”“You drink water, and water satiates your thirst. Your faith in water is made firm. You know, thereafter, that it can satiate the thirst of every person!”Priya Nath who had lived more constantly with Shri Nathji than any devotee in the world, and had even spent more years with Shri Nathji than Mateshwari, knew that each and every moment of Shri Nathji’s life showed that he was God. The greater the time that elapsed in an association with Shri Nathji, the more was this belief re-enforced.
