Aptavani-6
This world will not let anyone go to moksha. The world
is full of interfering intellect. Amidst it all, if one passes through
with awareness and closes all accounts of karma, then he will
attain moksha.
Getting the Work Done Through the Prakruti
After attaining Self-realization, when one says, ‘I am
Shuddhatma,’ from that moment on, he is nirvikalp; he is
without the vikalp – the false imagination of, ‘I am Chandulal.’
But if he says anything other than that such as, ‘I am like this,’
or ‘I am like that,’ then that is all vikalp. Vikalp is the cause of
the worldly life. I am Shuddhatma is the nirvikalp state, the
state of bliss. Nevertheless, Chandulal will continue doing good
deeds as well as bad ones. He will do right deeds that are
helpful to others, and he will also do wrong deeds that hurt
others. No one can do only helpful or only hurtful deeds. Some
do more hurtful ones and some do less.
Questioner: Is that going to happen even when we do
not wish it?
Dadashri: Yes, it will; so once you decide, ‘I am
Shuddhatma,’ then you simply have to ‘see’ all these helpful or
hurtful, right or wrong actions that unfold. If any good or bad
results occur within, then you should not think, ‘Something bad
happened. My Shuddhatma has become ruined.’ Shuddhatma
is your real Self. This so-called helpful-hurtful, good-bad is the
result of mistakes of past life (karma). You just have to keep
‘seeing’ those results. And this ‘good-bad’ ‘helpful-hurtful’ is
the worldly, relative language. There is no such thing as helpful-
hurtful in the Lord’s language. (‘Lord’ refers to Lord Mahavir).
Questioner: Why should one even bother with it if helpful-
hurtful is not in the Lord’s language?
Dadashri: There is nothing to do or bother about. That
is why I say ‘see’ (juvo) and do not hurt anyone. However, if
