Quote by Dada Bhagwan

“The Knowledge (Gnan) is itself the absolute Self (Parmatma). Gnan (Knowledge) never becomes agnan (ignorance), but the applied awareness changes and that is what is referred to as agnan (ignorance)!”

“We' (Gnani Purush) have Seen the facts as they are, in our Knowledge, and that is what I speak about. There is no superior father figure who binds one. Agnan (ignorance) binds and Gnan (Knowledge of the Self), will liberate. The ignorance that binds is everywhere, whereas the Knowledge that liberates can only be obtained if one comes across a Gnani Purush!”

“Vyavasthit (result of scientific circumstantial evidences) has to be kept in your laksha (awareness as the Self). You should not take its support wrongfully. [When] all the efforts are completed and the work gets done; if it [the result] turns out wrong, that is when you should say, "It is vyavasthit."”

“It is due to the inspiration from 'vyavasthit' (result of scientific circumstantial evidences) that the pudgal (non-Self complex) becomes the 'doer'. Outwardly, the pudgal appears to be the 'doer', but that is due to the evidence of 'vyavasthit' and in that too, it can happen only if the Soul (Atma) is present.”

“The moment illusion (bhranti) departs, One Knows things as they are. As illusion departs, it means the ignorance of the Self (agnan) has gone. As ignorance of the Self has gone, it means illusory attachment (maya) has gone!”

“If sankalp-vikalp (all the relative 'I-ness' and ‘my-ness’ that stems from the belief that ‘I am Chandubhai’) happen, then it can be said that Self-realization has not yet been attained. As one becomes the doer of the sankalp-vikalp, he cannot become nirvikalp (free from the belief that 'I am Chandubhai' and with the right belief that 'I am pure Soul')!”

“What is considered as a vow (vrat)? For this Dada [Gnani Purush], the five mahavrats (great vows of truth, non-possessiveness, non-violence, non-stealing, and celibacy as expounded by Lord Mahavir) prevail at all times! He lives in wordly life yet He prevails in the mahavrats, what must that be like? One in whom pudgal pariniti (the belief that 'I am doing' in what are the results of the non-Self) does not arise at all! Where there is mahavrat, there is no pudgal pariniti. And where there is anuvrat (observance of minor religious vows), there to a certain extent, pudgal pariniti is present and to certain extent, it has also decreased!”
