Devotion greater than intellectual jargon

On one occasion, Roda's husband, who was well-versed in scriptural lore and learning, was discussing seriously with his friends spiritual matters using high-sounding technical terms. Roda felt sad that she could not at all follow what they were talking about. She went to Bhagavan and reported it while He was going up the hill, and he replied in English:

'Why are you sad over it? Your path (devotion) is far greater than their intellectual jargon'

[Rod McIver was drawn to Bhagavan upon seeing a photo of His. Her first darshan was in 1942. Excerpted from Unforgettable Years, p 59]
