Questioner: You
move around in a liberated state, but how did you acquire the special powers (siddhi)?
Dadashri: Just like you, many people ask me the same question, and I
have to say to them: “Do you want to imitate me? You will just waste your
efforts, if you try to imitate me.”
‘This is but natural.’ Even the Gnan
that manifested within me happened on the bench where I sat amidst the
terrible hustle and bustle of the Surat station.
Questioner:
You say that Gnan that manifested was “but natural”.
Can you explain what you mean by that?
Dadashri: “But natural” Gnan happens to only few people. If
someone says: “I did it myself,” then that Gnan remains incomplete. This
Gnan happened ‘naturally’ on its own. If one did it himself, then the vikalp
(the ego of ‘I am Chandubhai’ – reader can read his/her name) would decrease by
80 per cent, but 20 per cent would still remain. But this is the Science of the
Vitarag, which means that it is a 100 per cent nirvikalp
(ego-less state).
The Gnani Gives Proof Of Moksha
Questioner:
What do you do on a daily basis?
Dadashri: I constantly live in my moksha; even at
this present moment, I am in my moksha. The speech that is emitting
comes from a ‘recorded tape’. I am not its owner. I just see whether that
speech comes out ‘right or wrong’.
Questioner:
When your ‘tape’ within is not saying anything, does it mean that it has just
gone ‘blank’?
Dadashri: The audible ‘tape’ keeps on playing, and simultaneously, the
‘tape’ of subtle (inaudible) speech is also playing.
Questioner: Can
the Gnani
Purush change one’s parmanus (subatomic particles)?
Dadashri: After you have put yogurt in the milk, the Gnani cannot do
anything.
Questioner: What
do you mean when you say, ‘putting yogurt in milk’?
Dadashri: You have no choice but suffer the effects of karmas that
have become solidified like ice. The Gnani can destroy karmas
that are in the form of water and vapour. Nevertheless, his inner intent is
always just naimitik (instrumental), and therefore, he remains as the
non-doer (akarta).
Questioner: What
is moksha?
Dadashri: Moksha is liberation from all types of pain (dukh)
and the
attainment of eternal bliss. Moksha is the feeling of liberation.
Questioner:
What causes bondage?
Dadashri: Ignorance of the Self
Questioner:
Is moksha
a location or a state?
Dadashri: It is a state, but not this state that you are familiar with:
it is a natural state.
Questioner: Does
moksha
mean independence?
Dadashri: Yes, real independence – where there is no superior and no
“underhand” (subordinate).
Questioner: Is
it possible to attain such an independent state in the worldly life (sansar)?
Dadashri: Why not? I have attained it. I am living proof that it is
possible to attain such a state, even while living in the worldly life (sansar).
You will get some ‘encouragement’ from seeing me that it is attainable even
while living in the worldly life (sansar).
