SPIRITUAL CORNER - The Knowledge Of The Self

Questioner: What is the difference between ‘attaining the state that you are in’ and ‘attaining moksha’?
Dadashri: There is no difference. I have indeed attained moksha. If you attained the state I am in, even you would attain moksha. You do not have to look for it outside, for it is inside you.

Questioner: You tell us that we should realise who we are, so, how can we do that?
Dadashri: You have to come to me. You have to say that you want to know who You are, so that I can help you do that.

Questioner: Is the Gnan that we have received from you the Atmagnan (knowledge of the Self) itself?
Dadashri: What you have received is not the Atmagnan. It is that which has manifested within you is the Atmagnan. When you repeat what I ask you to repeat, it destroys all your demerit karma (paap) and the Gnan begins to emanate within you.

Questioner: What should one do to attain the grace (krupa) of the Gnani Purush?
Dadashri: The Gnani himself knows when you are following his Agnas. The Gnani wants nothing else. He will be pleased if you abide by the ‘laws’ (Agnas; special directives) of the place that you want to go to, nothing else.

… What Amazing Bliss!

Questioner: Did you realise that you had attained Gnan when it happened?
Dadashri: Did I indeed?! At the time, I felt as though I was sitting in Siddha Gati (abode of the Absolute liberated Souls, located at the crest of the universe), experiencing infinite bliss. So, how would I not realise it? Although I was sitting on a bench, I was still experiencing the bliss of the Siddha Gati. The gentleman who was my attendant, who sat beside me at the time, also attained moksha. This Akram Vignan that has manifested is something quite amazing!

Can Gnani Be Compared With Anyone?

Questioner: Is there no comparison to a Gnani?
Dadashri: There is no comparison to a Gnani. Who is a Gnani? Not everyone is considered a Gnani. One is a Gnani, if he does not have the slightest ownership of the mind, of the speech or of the body; he who constantly remains as the Self and he who does not have even a trace of ego.

Questioner: Does the Gnani have the highest humility (namrata)?
Dadashri: Even an ordinary person has humility, but the Gnani does not have an ego at all. There is no ego, even when someone insults him.

Questioner: Does the Gnani have no interest (nispruha)?
Dadashri: The Gnani is not nispruha. There are many people who are nispruhi. There are many who say, “I do not need anything,” but that is an ego of not having interest. The Gnani Purush is saspruha-nispruha, which means that he is uninterested in material pleasure and interested only in the Self (saspruha).

Questioner: Can you predict the future?
Dadashri: I would not say that. But if you have any troubles, I can make you completely free of worr.
