Aptavani-8
191
The Atma that I am referring to, is one in which there is
no subtle (sookshma) division, nor gross (sthool) division; it is
indivisible and inseparable (avibhagi-avibhajya), which is the
Absolute Soul (Parmatma). And you are talking about an Atma
that is gross (sthool) and subtle (sookshma) which can be
divided. All this gross and subtle is impermanent and destructible
(vinashi). It is a mechanical atma. It will only work if you allow
air into it (body), but if you stop the air from entering, it will
perish. Whereas the original and fundamental (muda) Atma
never dies.
So if the Atma were a portion of the Absolute Soul
(Parmatma), it would never become absolute. And if it does
not become absolute, then it cannot be the Atma! ‘You’ are
absolute. But you are not aware of it. Your awareness is just a
fraction. You are the whole Absolute Soul. The Absolute Soul
can never be a portion. You cannot make pieces out of the
Absolute Soul.
Can You Ever Make a Rupee from a Pai?
Do you now understand that Bhagwan (God) exists in
an absolute form? You thought God existed as a fraction (ansha)?
So when those people who have said that he exists as a fraction,
it cannot be wrong, can it? Would that be wrong? It is not
wrong, but if they drank the medicine which was supposed to
be rubbed on, what would happen? What is the fraction form
(ansha swaroop)? It is that Bhagwan within you is complete
and full (sarvansha), but however many coverings (avaran)
break, a proportional Knowledge (Gnan) is uncovered for you.
But the Bhagwan within is complete (sarvansha). And in this
lifetime, it is possible that the complete Knowledge (Gnan) can
manifest for you. It has to be someone from Hindustan (India).
That is because someone from here, in Hindustan, is “fully
developed” (spiritually evolved). This Gnan is not useful to those
in foreign countries. It is because they do not understand
