state of a 'Gnani.'
This incident that took
place in Baroda on the
day when Hiraba left for
her heavenly abode
describes the amazing
'vitragi' state of
Dadashri.
Dadashri was on the
second floor of the
house when the maid in
service of Hiraba ran up
from the first floor to
inform Him about the
passing away of Hiraba
early at 5.00 am that
morning. She was in
tears when she

the sad news but
Dadashri did not panic
even for a moment and
calmly instructed her to
proceed with the
necessary rituals while
He would join them
after completing His
regular 'vidhis' (prayers)
.
It was almost after an
hour and a half that
Dadashri came down
after having completed
His 'vidhis' for Hiraba.
Generally in such
circumstances any one
would get emotional but
Dadashri maintained His
poise and it seemed as if
not even a 'parmanu'

was absolutely 'sahaj'
(natural).
This incidence quite
distinctly highlights calm
& composed state of a
'Gnani.' How absolutely
'vitrag' they are. Even
the wife's demise
cannot affect their
internal state of
remaining free &
unattached entirely
'mamta rahit' and
'vitrag'.
