Questioner : Dada, will this path of Akram continue in
your absence?
Dadashri : This Akram path will last for a couple of
generations after ‘we’ are gone. (Dadashri came forth with these
words in 1974. Later in 1977, he said that the Akram Path
would continue for as long as there is a presence of true seekers
of liberation in this world). After that, things will be the way they
were. Nevertheless, ‘we’ will be instrumental in raising the
Kramic path to newer heights. There will be new scriptures;
everything will be new. Things will not be in the state of ruins as
they are today.
This is the Akram path. Therefore, within just one hour,
the Gnani breaks your belief of the worldly life as being the
reality and establishes it in the actual reality of the Self. That is
why, Kavi has written:
“Never has there been knowledge like this in a million years.
Forgotten was this real knowledge, never spoken of before.”
This has never happened before and that is precisely why
this path is such a wonder. And if in this path one attains the
ticket of liberation, then his work is done. This path is for those
with a lot of punya. Otherwise even after taking countless taunts
and sufferings from mother-in-laws and husbands, liberation is
not possible. Liberation is not that easy. It is only because there
is a presence of the Gnani Purush that it has become so. The
scriptural writers have emphasized and praised in glorious terms
the Gnani Purush as the giver of liberation.
‘We’ are not the Lord of salvation; ‘we’ are merely
instrumental in the process, and those who have the punya will
reap the benefit without doing anything. This Akram path is the
result of their own good deeds, otherwise where can one even
dream of an Akram path? Only later, when people read about
Akram Vignan in the history books, will they wonder whether
