• What is Avgun?
• Finding faults in others and telling others, i.e.
  lowering their status.

5

• There are two levels on which a person can
  behave.
• Being in a state of mind to improve and progress
  compared to being in a state of mind where there
  is no progression regardless of what spiritual
  level that person may be.

6

• Example One person that smokes etc but is in the
  state of mind to stop, become a better person, a
  yearn to learn. In comparison to someone who has
  been in satsang all his life knows about religion
  but does not have that yearn to learn.

  have that desire?
