raudradhyan? Raudradhyan means to cause any kind of hurt
to others and artadhyan means that only he himself is in pain;
he does not hurt others at all.
Nothing is attained no matter how many resolutions
(nischays) he makes, no matter how much he wanders life after
life. Has he not been wandering for endless lives? One has heard
and listened to the ‘liberated One’ (mukta Purush) but one did
not follow His Agnas. To surrender to the Agnas of the
liberated One is itself dharma (religion). Only the liberated One
can liberate you. They have the ‘license’ to do so. You have to
understand this from a Gnani Purush.
We have two paths: a relative path and a real path.
Dharmadhyan is taught by many, but no one knows how to do
it. ‘We’ teach dharmadhyan here but it is dharmadhyan of a
very elevated state. If anyone can grasp it, his work will be
done.
Questioner: As one progresses in dharmadhyan, will he
eventually progress towards shukladhyan (awareness after the
Self is realized)?
Dadashri: No! One cannot go towards shukladhyan
from dharmadhyan. Shukladhyan is not something one can
attain on his own. It cannot manifest without the darshan of a
Gnani Purush or a Kevalgnani (the One who is the light of
absolute Knowledge). It is a nirvikalp state (a state without of
any ‘I-ness’). It is a state beyond the senses (atindriya).
Therefore, it cannot be attained any other way. I give you both,
dharmadhyan as well as shukladhyan.
Disrespect Towards the Gnani
Questioner: If any disrespect (avinaya) is occurring in the
process of asking you questions, or in my speech and actions,
even though it is not my intention (bhaav); is that tantamount to
doing your viradhana (being insolent towards You)?
