Absolutely revered Dada Bhagwan reveals the reality of the world that, “There are only two things in this world, the pure Soul and circumstances.” The pure Soul is permanent while circumstances are temporary and are of the non-Self and are entirely dependent on external factors. One becomes engrossed in that which he likes, while in that which he dislikes, he has abhorrence and he continues to suffer; all of these are still weaknesses. If your opinion changes, then equan...

After attaining Knowledge of Self, followers have attained awakened awareness of the Self, yet the filled stock of karma remains to be emptied. This filled stock of karma creates interference & its effects in worldly interactions. It is the intellect that creates interference. As long as you listen to the advice of the intellect and consider it to have value interference of intellect will remain. As one continues to follow the Five Agn...

To meet a Gnani Purush (Self-Realized One), and to access their spiritual power to achieve spiritual enlightenment, is extremely rare. One such Gnani Purush of recent time is Param Pujya Dada Bhagwan. The book “Gnani Purush – Part 1”, describes his early childhood life before he attained spontaneous Self Realization. He went through the same incidents that we have all gone through, but what he learnt from each incident and how he tackled every problem he faced, is described in this book.

Who hasn’t asked themselves what there is to life beyond just living? What is true purpose in life? There must be higher purpose than just living… In the book “Who am I?”, Gnani Purush (embodiment of Self knowledge) Dada Bhagwan describes that one’s ultimate life purpose is to find an answer to the age-old unanswered question of spiritual seekers: Who am I, and who is the ‘doer’ of all that happens in life? Dadashri also resolves questions such as: “What is the nat...

There are times in life when we must endure suffering due to no fault on our part – or so it seems. Life circumstances can appear terribly unjust. Naturally we question, “Why me? Am I wrong? It’s not my fault!, Why do bad things happen to good people?” Added to the many problems in everyday life, these situations can feel like the very definition of suffering. We may conclude that there is no God, question how to get inner peace, and how to live through such trying ci...

The essence of all scriptures, all spiritual discourses and spiritual activities is one and the same and that is to get the ‘awareness and the knowledge of Self’. The ‘main Self’ is shuddha (verily pure), but one has the wrong belief of “who am I”? This wrong belief of I am Chandu (reader should use his name) has given rise to the prakruti (nature and characteristics of a person). Published in this book are the discussions of Param Pujya Dadashri (master of spiritual ...

With the grace of absolutely revered Dada Bhagwan, followers have assuredly attained Self-realization. However, followers have attained this knowledge without discharging their karma, therefore the Self has not yet come into complete experience. If the Self is known & experienced completely then One himself is indeed God.
