divine and dexterous devices for transmission of one ’ s awakening , communication with the Self and enlightened intuitive intellect for inspiration . One should take the utmost benefit of the Gnani for the attainment of Liberation and make one ’ s existence on this earth meaningful and fruitful .
One will have to come to the Gnani in order to realize the Soul . The cherished object cannot be attained from the one who is not familiar with that which one desires . To know the Soul , you will have to approach the Gnani , who is perennially in a state of meditation of the Soul – Nirvikalpa Samadhi - He is completely free from any sense of ‘ I-ness ’ and ‘ My-ness ’. The Gnani alone can place the Real in your hand . The Gnani has the ability to do anything and yet he performs all tasks in the spirit of being a mere instrument in the process . The Gnani never becomes a ‘ doer ’ of anything .
All the scriptures proclaim unanimously , ‘ If you desire to realize the Pure Self , go to a Gnani .’ The lighted can kindle light in others . The Gnani is the perfect Self-Realization in the human form . He is therefore , the Liberator and the Saviour .
The Gnani lives in the present – not the past or the future . There is a permanent prevalence of the present within Him . A broken glass is the past and worries and anxieties about ‘ What will happen now ?’ is the future . The Gnani ‘ lives ’ in the minutest fraction of time , which is impossible to divide any further . Being Self-Realized , he has traversed and seen each and every atom of the cosmogony of the universe . Yet he remains the Knower – Perceiver of all that is to be known . Only the Gnani can reach to the level of the smallest indivisible fraction of time ( samay ) and sub-atomic matter , which can no longer be divided ( parmanu ).
There is no sorrow for that , which has past , No yearning for that which is to come ,
