Scanned final page of Subháśita Saḿgraha Part 19, Salvation and Devotion: Missing Final Five Paragraphs.



Here below is a scan of the final page of Tiljala group's publication of the DMC Discourse Salvation and Devotion. They have concluded the discourse with the line, “Such persons are called Gopa. Gopayate ya sah Gopah i.e. one who imparts bliss to Paramátmá is Gopa.” As if that were the end of Baba's discourse. However, in the actual discourse that day 14 October 1966 in Mumbai, Baba continued for five more paragraphs. Those final five paragraphs were never printed by the Tiljala Publishers.

In the scan below, a red square has been drawn to indicate where the final five paragraphs should have been printed. That is, these paras should have continued from where the Tiljala AMPS Publishers created the false end of the discourse. These five paragraphs contain 447 words or almost two pages. The discourse as currently printed by Tiljala group is ten pages long. Adding these true final five paragraphs would have added another two pages to the discourse, making it twelve pages long.


The final five paragraphs should have been printed starting in the above red square (and continuing on to the next two pages.)
