Dadashri: No, how can you ever become a ‘non-doer’?
If you become a non-doer, then how can it be possible for you
to renounce (tyaag) anything? ‘God’s will’ is just there to
appease your own mind. If you drop a cup, you will say that it
was ‘God’s will.’ But how can it be ‘God’s will’ when there is
nobody out there, who goes by the name of God? Does anyone
have the right to interfere in your affairs? Why would God need
to do anything in my work? Is he my superior? But just look at
all this fallacy that has carried on until now.
The Gnani Purush never uses anything as a crutch.
Many say that it is the fruit of their karma. ‘We’ have given
You this beautiful “vyavasthit” so that you will not experience
any difficulties. ‘We’ have examined this vyavasthit before
giving it to you. It is all one hundred percent vyavasthit!
Otherwise, you will get on the wrong path. ‘We’ are saying
that it is vyavasthit as far as it relates to worldly matters.
What ‘we’ have given You, will run things for you from now
on. You have to remain in the purusharth dharma (religion of
the Self). You may ask whether this will work for you or not.
‘We’ tell you that it is vyavasthit, so do not even pay any
attention to it there. This mind, body and speech are under the
control of vyavasthit. All you have to do is simply ‘see’ what
the body does. Keep ‘seeing’ what ‘Chandubhai’ does. And
You just have to keep following ‘our’ Five Agnas (special
directives). Now tell me, hasn’t this been given to you so
simply and directly?
Questioner: Is remaining in the Five Agnas considered
purusharth?
Dadashri: Yes, to remain in the Agnas is itself purusharth;
it is the religion (dharma; duty) and it is also the penance
(tapa). The Agnas contain everything. Therefore, You do not
have to do anything. Once you meet a Gnani Purush, You only
have to remain in his Agnas.
