Famous Dada Bhagwan Quotes

“Knowledge of all living beings of the entire world is in only one Soul. But the knowledge that sees the ego and everything, as objects to be known (gneya); only that knowledge is called as the ‘Knowledge’. However, that is partial Knowledge but only from that moment it is regarded as real applied focused awareness. Where there is Knowledge, the focused applied awareness may be partial or complete.”

“Krupa (divine grace) means ‘every time sincere’. Without becoming suitable for naimitik krupa (apparent grace), one cannot attain the nischay (Realization that I am Pure Soul). Even in the Kramic (step by step) path, there is naimitk krupa. ‘We’ shower down special grace. ‘Our’ grace descends upon one due to ultimate humility. Only thing required is ‘complete sincerity’.”

“There are two types of worldly life: renouncing [tyaag] is a worldly life and family life [gruhasti] is also a worldly life. Those who renounce are constantly in the knowledge of ‘I am renouncing…I am renouncing’. And the family man prevails in the knowledge of ‘I am acquiring…I am taking…I am giving’. But the one, who attains knowledge of the self [soul], will attain liberation (moksha). Where does one acquire Knowledge of the Self? From the ‘Gnani Purush’ [the Enlightened One].”

“There is no means other than Vitaraag Vignan (Science that leads to the absolute state free of attachment-abhorrence) that can give Moksha (ultimate liberation). Other methods will cause bondage and will only help to pass the time. Through Gnani Purush (Enlightened One), one is able to attain the Eternal thing (Soul).”

“In scriptures, there is knowledge about the different methods, it does not have the knowledge of the ultimate goal (to experience Pure Soul). Gnani (Enlightened One) has the knowledge of the ultimate goal. Knowledge about the goal, which is the Soul, is obtained as a result of Gnani’s grace.”

“The Soul can be worshipped only after attaining the Soul (Realization of the Self). Worship removes the veils of ignorance (avaran) and one can see more. It all depends on whose worship one is doing. By worshiping the one who has attained the Soul (the enlightened one), namely the Gnani Purush, one can attain the Soul (realize the self).”

“Is there a Parmatma (Absolute Supreme Soul)? There definitely is, and the Parmatma is within you. Why are you searching for it on the outside? But only if someone opens the ‘door’ for us, can we have the vision of the Parmatma, right? This door has been closed shut in such a way that no one can ever open it by himself. Only the Gnani Purush (Enlightened One), who has become free from all bondage, can help others attain the same.”

“We’ (the Gnani Purush, the enlightened one) are by nature, non-interfering. If ‘we’, ourselves are non-interfering, then how can interfering people around ‘us’ can touch ‘us’? All interferences go away in ‘our’ [the Gnani’s] presence. What problems can the one that dwells in the Self [the Soul], have? The worldly life does not hinder the one who dwells in the Self.”

“The ‘Self’ (Purush) and ‘Relative-Self’ (Prakruti), are two separate things. Self (Purush) is the Pure Soul (Shuddhatma) and ‘Relative-Self’ (prakruti) is ‘pudgal’ (non-Self complex of matter). Pudgal by nature is a complex of input and output; Self (Purush) by nature is Knowledge.”

“Gnan (knowledge) of every living being of the entire world exists in a Soul. However, only the Gnan that is able to see the ego and everything as gneya (object to be known) is considered as 'Gnan'. Yet, that is still ansh-gnan (partial knowledge), and is considered as upayog (applied awareness as the Self) from that moment on. Where there is Gnan, there is upayog, either partially or completely.”
