Aptavani-9
Questioner: But that wrong belief does not go away that
easily does it?
Dadashri: The wrong belief does go away for sure.
‘We’ remove it for you. There are many people whose wrong
belief has gone and there is not just one wrong belief; ‘I am
his brother, his uncle, etc’ there are so many such wrong
beliefs.
Questioner: But that wrong belief does not go away until
You make us realize the Self (swaroop), does it?
Dadashri: No, it will not. That awareness (bhan) has to
be attained. The awareness ‘I am not Chandulal, Chandulal is
just for the worldly drama,’ has to occur. Then saiyam (the state
without kashaya) will prevail within. One will not taste
garvaras when inner saiyam prevails, he will not take delight in
the sweetness of the juice of doer-ship. So much bliss of saiyam
arises that one has no need to taste garvaras. One takes
garvaras because he has no inner bliss. When such bliss is not
there, there is at least the sweetness of garvaras.
The Gnani has no garva (doer-ship)
Indulging in garvaras will continue to increase keyf
(intoxication) of ego. Then one becomes very intoxicated. How
will this keyf come down? How will the intoxication of the
illusion (moha) that has risen come down? In life, the profits that
come are mandatory (farajiyat) and so are the losses. But
when a person makes a profit, he claims, ‘I earned it.’ And
when he incurs a loss, he says, ‘God did it’ or ‘my stars are not
favorable.’
One wants to taste the sweetness of the garvaras and
that is the cause of the worldly life. The worldly life is not
perpetuated by drinking alcohol, smoking cigarettes or drinking
tea. It is this garvaras that perpetuates the worldly life.
Garvaras is the only thing that no one likes to get rid of.
