Special note to the reader
The word Self, with ‘S’, refers to the awakened Self or
Soul, which is separate from the worldly soul (non-
awakened self), written with ‘s’. The term Shuddhatma
(pure Soul) is used for the awakened Self, after the Gnan
Vidhi given by the Gnani Purush.
Similarly, any word in the middle of a sentence, with an
initial capital or words in inverted commas, e.g. ‘You’,
‘Your’, at the beginning of a sentence, refers to the
awakened Self or Pragnya. This is an important distinction
for the correct understanding of the difference between
the awakened Self or the Self and the non-awakened self
or the worldly self.
Wherever the name ‘Chandubhai’ is mentioned, the
reader should substitute it with his or her name.
Dadashri uses the term ‘We’, ‘us’ or ‘our’ - meaning the
Gnani Purush.
