( 9) The Aura of the Individual
‘ This’ Gnani Is Vitarag Questioner: What do you love the most? Dadashri: I do not love anything except the Atma( Soul;
Self).
Questioner: Tell us about your spiritual thoughts and experiences.
Dadashri: I remain completely separate from the mind, body and speech. Nevertheless, I have not attained absolute knowledge( kevalgnan). Owing to the effects of the prevailing time cycle, I am still four degrees short of attaining it( the full 360 degrees).
Questioner: How do you manage to live in such a detached state, from this worldly life( sansar)?
Dadashri: With complete vitaragata( state of absolute detachment). I do business; I pay income tax, sales tax and all that. Even with all the‘ swords’ of the worldly life hanging over my head, I remain vitarag. This vitaragata would remain, even if someone were to cut off my hand.
Questioner: Despite having all this, do you feel the importance of business?
Dadashri: Nothing is important to me, but I still have to do it. It is like being taken away by the policeman and made to do something against your will.
