The Flawless Vision

decrease from within. These faults will continue to decrease until
they are completely gone. You will then be absolutely flawless, at
which point you can say that you have entered the realm of your
Real Self forever.
Now when will this happen? You have been wandering
through countless lifetimes, multiplying your faults. Only through
the grace of the Gnani Purush -the giver of liberation- can you
attain your salvation. That is what he has come for; he desires
nothing for himself.
When you have the complete and continuous awareness of
the Self, you will no longer make even a single mistake. To make
the slightest mistake is lack of awareness. Unless you void yourself
of all your faults, you cannot become faultless. And without
becoming faultless, there is no freedom.
When you become faultless, you will become The Pure
Self. Otherwise, when a few faults are remaining, if you let go of
the ownership of the mind, speech and the body, you will be The
Self. This body is not mine, this mind is not mine, this speech is
not mine, then you will become faultless. But, at this moment you
are the owner are you not? You have ownership and a title, don’t
you? As for myself I had destroyed the title a long time ago, so
since that time, some twenty-six years ago, I have not been the
owner of this body, this speech or this mind.
