🌷Statement of truth (sacca kiriya)🌷
Guruji made a strong determination (adhitthana) with the base of a statement of truth (sacca kiriya), as follows:
"Whatever Dhamma service that I have given till now is totally free from any selfish interest and it has only been given with the sole motive of helping others.
I have acted thus to fulfill the Dhamma wishes of my revered teacher. May my teacher feel free from the debt of Dhamma received from India. May I feel free from the debt of Dhamma I received from my teacher. It is only with this motive that I have given Dhamma service.
These are words of truth and with the strength of these true words I leave the decision to Dhamma.
If Dhamma wants me to carry on my Dhamma duties only in India then may I remain a Myanmar citizen, and if Dhamma wants me to travel the world for the spread of Vipassana, then at the completion of 10 years of my Dhamma service in India may I receive Indian citizenship."
