terms ‘bhaavna’ and ‘bhaav’ interchangeably. Now these terms
are being defined precisely. ‘Chandubhai’ is the name given by
Dadashri to the one that has been separated from the Self, after
the Gnan Vidhi. The mahatma substitutes his own worldly
name for Chandubhai.)
Questioner : What is the difference between ‘bhaavna’
and ‘bhaav’?
Dadashri : Both are within Chandubhai. Yes, you are
correct that there is a difference between bhaav and bhaavna.
Questioner : Bhaavna is pavitra (pure) and bhaav can
be good or bad?
Dadashri : No. It is not that bhaavna can be pavitra
(pure) only. Bhaavnaa can be apavitra (impure) also. There
can be a bhaavna of burning someone’s house down and also
there can be a bhaavna of building a house for someone. So
bhaavna can be used in both ways, but bhaav is considered
‘charge’ and bhaavna is considered ‘discharge’.
When you feel, “I have a bhaav to do this, I have to do
this,” that too is a bhaavna, it is not a bhaav. Bhaav is something
that is ‘charge’.
This whole world has come into existence because of
bhaavkarma, (charge karma, cause). Even though you cannot
do anything positive, you must have the bhaav for it. I have
taken away the bhaavkarma of mahatmas. Everyone else
have bhaavkarma, so they have to ask for the strength.
Whatever strength they need, they should ask from Dada
Bhagwan, the Lord within.
Questioner : These other people have to ask for this
strength, but what happens when the mahatmas ask for strength
and they have all these bhaavnas? .
