highly elevated stage when such subtle talks come out, and we
are awe stricken by Your great divinity and about Your Vignan
of Akram.
Dadashri: Not everyone recognizes through this
understanding. Is it easy to recognize this? The person who
understands this state will attain this state. To gain this
understanding is not an easy thing to accomplish. Yes the one
who can ‘see’ that ‘our’ aapopu; the last remnant of ‘I-ness’ in
the living state - is gone, has grasped something very important.
That person has understood what ‘I-ness’ is.
One whose ‘I-ness’ is gone becomes
Parmatma
Now how does this ‘I-ness’ aapopu, potapanu go
away? By doing darshan of the person whose ‘I-ness’ is gone;
this is the ‘fitness’ (qualification or degree) of spiritual readiness
(paatrata), nothing else.
Questioner: Does it happen merely through doing
darshan?
Dadashri: Everything can happen with darshan. This
topic has come out only today. Has the word aapopu (‘I-ness’)
cropped up before? It opens up when the occasion arises.
God takes care of the one whose ‘I-ness’ goes away, so
then, where is the problem. Where do I have any such problem?
Let Lord Krishna ride the horses, ‘we’ simply have to ‘keep
seeing’ from within. So when will God take care of everything?
When You let go of your ‘I-ness’. That is why Krupadudev has
said, ‘bhagwat, bhagwat nu sambhadi leshey - God will take
care of the one who has become God.’ To become God, one
has to leave the ‘I-ness’.
It is not God’s responsibility as long as the ‘I-ness’
prevails. And when the ‘I-ness’ is gone, God is completely
responsible.
