abhorrence towards anything; whether you insult him or
shower him with flowers. His speech is syadvaad, which
means that it does not hurt anyone’s religion or anyone’s
viewpoint at all.
There Is No Method to Gnan
Questioner: You move around in a liberated state, but
how did you acquire the special powers (siddhi)?
Dadashri: Just like you, many people ask me the same
question, and I have to say to them, “Do you want to imitate
me? You will just waste your efforts, if you try to imitate me.”
‘This is but natural.’ Even the Gnan that manifested within me
happened on the bench where I sat, amidst the terrible hustle
and bustle of the Surat station.
Questioner: You say that Gnan that manifested was “but
natural”. Can you explain what you mean by that?
Dadashri: “But natural” Gnan happens to only few
people. If someone says, “I did it myself,” then that Gnan
remains incomplete. This Gnan happened ‘naturally’ on its own.
If one did it himself, then the vikalp (the ego of ‘I am
Chandubhai’), would decrease by 80 percent, but 20 percent
would still remain. But this is the Science of the Vitarag, which
means that it is a 100 percent nirvikalp (ego-less state).
The Gnani Gives Proof of Moksha
Questioner: What do you do on a daily basis?
Dadashri: I constantly live in my moksha; even at this
present moment I am in my moksha. The speech that is emitting,
comes from a ‘recorded tape’. I am not its owner. I just see
whether that speech comes out ‘right or wrong’.
Questioner: When your ‘tape’ within is not saying
anything, does it mean that it is just gone ‘blank’?
