Gadhada Last Section Vach. 9 Vachanamrut Rahasyarth Pradeepika Tika

You too must all maintain a vigilance in your heart and constantly remain in the service of God. You must not allow other objects to be dearer to you than God. You must remain very cautious about this. If a king’s guard did not remain vigilant about protecting the king, and a thief or unscrupulous person managed to reach the king, the services performed by that guard would become futile. Similarly, if a disciple develops affection for objects other than God, and within the awareness in his heart where God exists, other objects such as wealth and women enter, the devotion of that individual becomes false. Therefore, someone who wishes to keep his devotion free from all obstacles and reach the lotus feet of the Lord, should maintain vigilance at the door of the abode of God, which exists in the form of his awareness. He must not allow any object, other than God to enter.” Shreejimaharaj narrated these instructive words to all His disciples.
