When the vision rests on the congregation of holy people, one's consciousness attaches with the Lord. The same vision turns into vices in the company of self-willed people.

In the holy company, one realises the Lord through the union of the True Guru's words and the consciousness. But the same consciousness becomes a cause of arrogance and discord in the company of ill reputed persons.

By virtue of the company of Guru-conscious persons simplicity in life and eating becomes supreme blessing. But eating (of meat etc.) in the company of ill-famed and self-willed people become painful and distressing.

Due to base wisdom, the company of the self-willed people become a cause of birth and death repeatedly. On the contrary, adopting Guru's wisdom and keeping company of holy persons become a cause of emancipation. (175)
