Famous Dada Bhagwan Quotes

“One should not be obstinate even in worldly interaction. If you are obstinate with a ‘collector’, what will he do? He will throw you in a jail. So then what will happen if you are obstinate in front of God? God won’t put you in jail, but his contentment towards you will break away.”

“A person tastes the sweet pride of doer-ship by saying ‘I did this so well’. The taste of this subtle pride seems to be very sweet. There is suffering with the false imputation (of doer-ship). God is in the state of eternal bliss, and that is indeed the nature of the Self!”

“Chit’s tendencies can become pure [transparent] in front of God, but people don’t have this knowhow. The easiest solution to purify chit’s tendencies is to associate with a person who has the least amount of desires and the ultimate solution to make them pure is the inner visual contemplation (niddidhyasan) of the Vitarag (the enlightened ones who are free of all attachments).”

“Circumstances can change through worldly knowledge (ignorance of the self, the Soul) and also through (true) knowledge (realization of the self). With ignorance, circumstances will bring entanglements and with (true) knowledge, circumstances will bring solutions. (True) Knowledge itself changes circumstances. Is God likely to come down and do so?”

“When one prays to an image of Lord Krishna, it reaches the 'relative'. If one bows down here (at the lotus feet of the Gnani Purush), then it reaches one's own Self (Atma) directly. This is because the vitaraag One (One free from all attachment and abhorrence) does not accept it, does He? It is always such that, wherever there is darshan of both the 'relative' and the 'real', there indeed lies liberation (moksha).”

“Just as God has established the Knowledge of the Kramic path (traditional step-by-step path of spiritual progress), similarly this is Akram Vignan (spiritual science of the step-less path to Self-realization); however the Knowledge is the very same. Kramic Knowledge is such that it cannot work in accordance with the current times. That is why, in this era of the time cycle, Akram Vignan has naturally come to light.”

“When you do devotional viewing (darshan) of God, do it with (pure) intent. When you make the effort to go and do darshan, but you do not do it with the proper intent, then it is in vain. Therefore, do darshan in this way, 'Dear God! The one residing within me is verily You. You are vitaraag (one free from all attachment and abhorrence). I am bowing down to you.' If you do darshan in this way, then God has no choice but to answer the 'phone-call'. If He does not answer, then that is His responsibility. Hence, when a real 'phone-call' comes in, then God will answer it immediately.”

“The Lord himself is Vitaraag (free from attachment and abhorrence), and when the state completely free of attachment and abhorrence (vitaraagta) towards the world and the body arises in you, then your (spiritual) work will be done. Leave aside that towards the world, but even if you become free from attachment and abhorrence towards the body, then your (spiritual) work will be done.”
