the following remined me of Patanjali Yoga Sutras where in the end at the stage of Samadhi even the thought of self realization has to be given up cause it is a mental vasana like any other one...althought here in that quote Sarada is more targueting the ungenuine type of students . "if your motive for surrendering to me is desire for realization then you are no better than a monkey who pretends to make friends with a man so he can steal a mango which the man is holding.If the monkey has a real love for a man,the man may sense it and give him the mango, but if the monkey's eyes are always on the mango,the man will be aware of it and he will never let the monkey close enough to grab it"(No mind I am the Self/life and teaching of mathru sri sarada/david godman)
even the desire of realization has to be given up
