Even Ego is a Natural Arrangement
Questioner: ‘Necessity is the mother of invention’; is that
wrong?
Dadashri: That is just an exercise of words. However,
nature does all this.
Questioner: Then what is the basis for this ‘relative’
progress?
Dadashri: Nature makes it happen. Dravya changes as
time changes, and as dravya changes so does bhaav and then
one does egoism of, ‘I did.’ Even the ego is nature’s doing. He
who gets out of this egoism is freed from this too. Progress is
caused by nature; otherwise, all exercising of words is egoism.
People came up with the word ‘prarabdha (fate; destiny)’
and that is the reason for our predicament today! That is why
in ‘our’ science ‘we’ have not called anything ‘prarabdha.’
Questioner: Is it not that whatever is in vyavasthit is
what will happen?
Dadashri: I am telling you all this for your satisfaction.
You continue doing what you are doing and the result is in the
hands of vyavasthit, so do not worry or be scared. When the
order comes for you to fight, go fight, and do not worry about
the result.
Questioner: So should we not plan for anything?
Dadashri: Plans have already been made (in past life).
So when it comes for you to do anything, continue doing. Plans
were already made before the beginning of any event.
