a cruel intent, cruelty will be there in the intent during discharge of karma! Salvation is not from scriptural knowledge; it is from the experiential Gnan. The experience of Gnan can only be obtained from the Gnani Purush, who is the embodiment of absolute experience of the Self. Scriptures do not point out our mistakes, they address everyone in a common format. Does a picture of a lamp give light? The limitation of scriptures is like that of a drawing of a lamp. True light can only be given by a Gnani, who is the enlightened lamp! Where there are kashays (anger-pride-deceit-greed), there is parigraha (acquisitiveness), and where there is no kashay, there is moksha! After attaining Gnan, in the Akram path, kashays do not occur, because karmas are not bound here (because You are a non-doer). Kashays leave upon Self- realization. What is the reason for attending satsang? It is only to understand this much: ‘nothing is to be done’. Continue ‘seeing’ the result that unfolds! The theory of destiny (niyativaad) is that the flow of living beings in this universe is going on according to some rule of destiny. But destiny is not the only reason. Other reasons such as time (kaad), intrinsic nature (swabhav), self-effort (purusharth) and fate (prarabdha) also come into play. After attaining Self-realization in Akram Vignan, the chit becomes pure. Pure chit is pure Soul (shuddha chidroop) and that is the ‘shuddha Atma’ (pure Soul). When most revered Dadashri gives Gnan, the chit becomes completely pure. And only because of that the awareness (laksha) ‘I am Shuddhatma’ is always there! Wherever the ego leaves, there arises nirakudata (the state beyond all suffering). 24
