WHO AM I? 23
Questioner: Yes, I understand.
Dadashri: If you understand even this much, you are closer to solving this puzzle. All these people claim to do penance, japa( repeated incantation), meditation, and fasting. All this is an illusion. But the world will always carry on like this and will never be without ego. That is its nature.
IT HAPPENS...
Dadashri: Do the events that take place occur because of our control or do they just happen?
Questioner: They just happen by themselves.
Dadashri: Yes, all this just happens. When you wake up in the morning, it just happens. When you drink tea, it just happens. When you use the lavatory, it just happens. When you sleep, it just happens. Are you making all these things happen or do they just happen?
Questioner: They just happen.
Dadashri: When you are working at a job, does it happen or are you doing it?
Questioner: It happens.
Dadashri: Yes, so in this world,“ It happens.” This is what the world is all about. Things just happen, but people say,“ I am doing it.”“ I went to the toilet, I did this, I earned this money,” and so on. When something is happening by itself and we say,“ I am doing it,” we are creating new karma( sowing new seeds of karma). If you stop creating( charging) new karma, you will be free. Without Gnan( self-realisation) however, one cannot stop creating new karma.
‘ DOERSHIP’ = PRAKRUTI,‘ NON-OERSHIP’= ATMA Each and every human being in this world is a‘ T-O-P’.
