One is the Self (Atma) and the Self is Knowledge (Gnan), the Self is Science (Vignan), the Self is the liberated state (moksha), so then why is the experience of moksha halted? Because of kashaya: anger-pride-deceit-greed. Anger-pride-deceit-greed arose and that is verily bhaavkarma (charge karma). When karma is charged, effect is inevitable at the time of discharging, that verily is this antahkaran, mind-intellect-chit-ego. So effect from causes and causes from effect,...

Absolutely revered Dadashri is the wonder of this current time cycle as a Gnani Purush in the attire of a householder but along with this, his phenomenal worldly interaction can also be considered as a wonder. It is evident from his worldly interaction that he is an excellent example of carrying out ideal worldly interaction while staying constantly in the state of the Self. How should be the worldly interaction? Who can give us precise and incontrovertible understanding...

Absolutely revered Dadashri says that we are bound by our mistakes. We are verily parmatma (the absolute Self), if we destroy the mistakes. You have as many faults as you have hair on your head, but how will these faults come to surface if you are the judge, the lawyer and the plaintiff? The fact is that as long as one is partial, he cannot see his own mistakes. One becomes impartial by attaining Self-realization from the Gnani Purush. One does not remain partial towards...

What does pratikraman mean? The mistake that has happened is wrong, I am not agreeing with it. Pratikraman is to change our opinion. Prakruti means our charitra moha (discharging illusory conduct) and it would harbor opinions but You want to become free from opinion. You (the awakened One in Akram Vignan) do not have desire to do this again. You have to do pratikraman to get rid of this aggression from your nature (swabhaav). If one does not do pratikraman then one’s nat...

There are only two things: circumstances and Atma (the Self). If one remains as the Self then what else is left? Only circumstances. And circumstances are of the non-Self and are dependent on the non-Self; they are settling as they are discharging. The effects of causes created by me are verily unfolding through the other person; and in all that; what can the other person do?So then what kind of happiness will he achieve by seeing a person who is faultless, at fault? Int...

Anger does happen for some or another reason in the life. Did you ever think seriously about anger? What is anger? What are the results of anger and why does it arise? Anger that arises is the result of unawareness. Anger is always associated with violent intent and with an ongoing link of grudge. Anger is a live fire. As long as one moves about as, ‘I am Chandulal,’ anger-pride-deceit-greed, remain within. Now when Gnani Purush gives You awareness of the Self and You re...

People are trying to attain pleasure, peace and bliss in the life but why they do not attain true pleasure or bliss? The whole world is in kashaya. Kashaya means anger-pride-deceit-greed, all these are weaknesses. Absence of kashaya is verily bliss, that which makes one forget the world is called the bliss of the Self. Anger, pride, deceit, greed, attachment abhorrence, cause a veil that comes over the Self and thus prevents the bliss from being experienced. Your kashaya...

Food is mandatory for maintenance of life. One has to eat the thing which has life in it and only through this a body can attain nourishment. This is because the act of eating itself involves killing. And killing of living beings happen in act of eating food; as a result, violence is committed; so then what should people, who want to follow the path of religion or spirituality, do? Dadashri has given right understanding regarding such aspects. This will give the right un...

Ego should be such that people would like you and welcome you. Such ego can become so purified progressively that there remains only one degree difference between the self and the absolute Self (paramatma). And if the same ego walks in the wrong direction then not only it will not bring about one’s own salvation, but it will hurt many people. Revered Dadashri particularly explains in detail about this crazy ego which is one grave danger zone in the progress in the path o...

So it is worth understanding this world. Not in one’s own understanding; it should be understood as in the vision of the Gnani Purush. The Gnani Purush gives one the ‘long-sight’ that will enable one to see things exactly the way they are; then one will not have conflict or quarrel, one will not have todfod cracking and breaking, one will not have munbheda separation due to differences in mind, matabheda divisiveness due to differences in opinions; and thus all will get ...

One decides to practice brahmacharya according to today’s understanding and knowledge, however the knowledge and understanding from the past life was not favoring brahmacharya completely and that became the mind of this life, as a result the current mind will show both; he will feel illusory attraction moha towards sexuality too and will have the intent of practicing brahmacharya too. This is where the sadhak the aspirant of brahmacharya has to keep awareness. One has to...

Absolutely revered Dada Bhagwan had kept only one goal his entire life, intention of salvation of world.

Speech is a necessary medium to carry out worldly interactions with ease. As long as the spoken language remains in normality, it is beneficial to the self and to others. However if it goes out of normality then such speech becomes harmful to others and to the self too. Absolutely revered Dadashri has unfolded the science of the basis and reason for wrong or right speech. In the root cause there are the tubers of ego, moha, pride, greed, insistence and wanting to have it...

What is the reason of this divisiveness? It is the divisive intellect bheda buddhi. The intellect creates separation that ‘this is mine’ and ‘this is yours’, ‘I am right’ and ‘you are wrong’, ‘I am good’ and ‘you are bad’. As long as there is intellect, ‘Iness’ potapanu will not leave and how can one become one until ‘I-ness’ leaves? When one’s ego is not satisfied-nurtured then at that time one will have separation with the other person; he will have abhorrence and when...

Right or wrong exist with respect to intellect in the world. Wrong and right, worthy and worthless all these duality exist in the society. In the eyes of the Lord, wrong or right does not exist at all. All are gneya—the object to be known, only. If it is not favorable to us then we say it is wrong, bad and if it is favorable then we say it is right, good. This wrong or right is duality.Gnani Purush Dadashri says that as long as you are having divisiveness due to differen...

We have never thought seriously about positive or negative inclination in speech, behavior, thoughts, and opinions which take place naturally in worldly interaction, have we? Highly revered Dadashri says that the whole world revolves around these three statements 1. Have a positive ego to be happy. 2. Negative ego is the cause of unhappiness and misery. 3. Become free from the false projection, ‘I am Chandulal—the ego,’ if you want liberation.The correct understanding re...

The world is flawless. In spite of knowing this, why does it not come into our complete experience? In spite of attaining such a wonderful Gnan—Self-knowledge, what mistakes remain which prevent one from experiencing complete bliss and freedom in this very life? Absolutely revered Dadashri explains this that as long as one sees the faults of others, one is protecting one’s own subtle faults.Dadashri has explained beautifully about kinds of faults being committed by mahat...

The Gnani Purush remains vitarag, does not have any likes or dislike in any task. The Gnani Purush is devoid of raag-dwesh—attachment-abhorrence. The Gnani Purush does not have anger-pride-deceit-greed. He is always in the here and the now. The past is gone, the future is under the control of vyavasthit—scientific circumstantial evidence; what is left is the present. That is why He is always in the tension free state. He has avagaadha pratiti absolute conviction of the S...
