Bhaktha is in total love and hence there is no mind at all. In fact the Bhaktha does not exist and only god exists in him. He allows God to take him over so totally that there is no trace of “Bhaktha” is left. He is immersed in the godly state throughout. It appears Bhaktha does something but actually only God does. Bhaktha ceases to exist.
In contrast, a mad person gets lost in his mind. For some mad persons, mind does not function at all. For some mind functions very very fast.. They speak words which are not conceivable. There will be no absolute continuity in the words used.
The questions till remains? How to differentiate..
In Bhaktha, only god exists, hence there will be a total silence around him. Near Bhaktha, you will be as will be in a “Temple”. In fact he is the temple himself. With Bhaktha, you lose yourself completely. Your mind will cease as well. No mind will be your state.
A mad person will be surrounded by madness around him and nothing more. Hence your mind will act and you will not be normal.
If still you feel you are not capable to differentiate, you have got 2 options
1.Don’t go to any such persons. Instead go to temples, Jeeva Samadhi's etc i.e the time tested option
2.If a person trust worthy to you who is matured spiritually says, take their word for it.
For the first 5 years in my spiritual career, I chose the first option i.e the safest option.
