He is extremely humble.He appears to be quite an ordinary man.
He never advertises that he is a Sad Guru or a Knower of Brahman.
He never says,‘‘I am an illumined sage. I am an Avatar.I will
give Mukti for many persons. I possess many Siddhis.’’He is
perfectly desireless.

更にこう続きます。

He has no craving for money or name and fame.He has no desire
to establish cult or Ashram.He simply works for solidarity of
the world and elevates people.He says,‘‘I have neither
followers nor disciples,neither possessions nor Mutts of my
own.’’
He has no attachment to any person or any object.He never tries
to establish cult or Ashram.He is absolutely free from ‘I-ness’
or‘mine-ness’.
 
続いて以下は更に重要と思われます。

He never allows those who sorrounded him to tell people that
he has got Siddhis,that he is a great Mahatma.He does not like
to come in the lime-light of publicity.He always hides himself.
If he becomes famous in a place, he leaves the place at once.
