Four F’s

There are four F s that you will have to fix before your attention. (1) Follow the Master, (2) Face the Devil, (3) Fight to the End and (4) Finish at the Goal. Follow the Master means, observe Dharma. Face the Devil means, overcome the temptations that beset you when you try to earn artha (wealth or the wherewithal to live in comfort). Fight to the End means, struggle ceaselessly; wage war against the six enemies that are led by kama (lust). And, finally, Finish at the Goal means, do not stop until the goal of Moksha (Liberation from ignorance and delusion) Is reached. The F s are fundamental for the pursuit of the four Purusharthas - Dharma, Artha, Kama and Moksha. (SSS Vol.13)


Students have to be encouraged to Follow the Master (the inner Voice of Conscience), Face the Devil (the down-dragging anti-social urges), Fight to the End (until one is able to overcome the inner foes of lust, anger, greed, undue attachment, pride and hatred) and Finish the Game (of life on earth). This duty is referred to in the Gita as Svadharma (one s genuine obligation to oneself); the duties that one gets involved in, while dealing with others is defined as Paradharma. Of these two, svadharma is more vital and valuable. (SSS Vol.19)

 

Follow the Master, the Master stands for your conscience. Only when you follow the dictates of your conscience can you reach the right destination. (SSB 1990)

 

Your duty is to follow the four F’s. (SSS Vol.31) If you carry out the injunctions of the Divine, all will be well with you. Every one is selfish in this world. God alone is selfless. He alone has the authority to confer joy even on selfish persons. He alone is the Master. Follow the Master. (SSS Vol.26)
