your eyes when you do. Only a Gnani Purush can do samayik
with the eyes open. Others do not have the capacity to do so.
You Have To Continue To ‘See’ In The
Samayik
Questioner: It is fine, I remain the Knower-Seer during
a samayik, but what is the state of the mind, the intellect, the
chit and the ego during that time? What should I pay specific
attention to during the samayik?
Dadashri: You have to ‘see’ what the mind, the intellect,
the chit and the ego are doing. Just like a supervisor. What does
a supervisor do when his boss tells him to supervise a task?
Questioner: He has to keep an eye on everyone and see
what each one is doing.
Dadashri: He only has to supervise everything and not
go and slap or interfere with anyone. In the same way, You have
to ‘see’ what the mind, intellect, chit and ego are doing, and
only keep ‘seeing’.
In samayik, you have to keep separating the Self and
keep ‘seeing’ the rest within (the chit, the mind, the intellect, the
ego and what they are doing). To ‘see’ and ‘know’ are the two
functions of the Self, that is all. The Self does not get involved
in anything else. It continues to ‘see’ ‘what happened, what the
mind is doing (dharma of the mind), what the intellect is doing
(dharma of the intellect). Just like when you are watching a
movie and in the movie people are fighting, you do not become
part of the movie, do you? You do not become emotional, do
you? Similarly, just as you watch a movie, You have to watch
the ‘cinema’ inside. That is samayik. It is very beneficial if you
do it for forty-eight minutes.
Questioner: So then, is there no need to remember the
past in this?
