Quote by Dada Bhagwan

“It is due to one’s own mistake that the world continues to be remembered. Whatever keeps coming to memory, that is where the mistakes lie. For a fully enlightened Gnani (One with Knowledge of the Self), the world continues to remain absent from his memory!”

“You are not the 'doer' of this, there is a mistake in your belief. For the work that is not Yours, you claim, "I did it." Moreover, You are not even aware of what Your work is. Therefore, how much of Your work would be accomplished? No work has been accomplished. You had come without awakened awareness (jagruti); you were born in this world, and that too without awakened awareness, and you left without awakened awareness too. You ended up binding so much demerit karma without doing anything?”

“The one with form (sakaar; self) will have to be made formless (nirakaar, Self). The Self is formless. However, opinions about it, reflects the formed state. To have a formed state for that, which is formless, is a contradiction in itself. In order to get rid of the contradiction, one will have to come into the formless intent. ‘We’ (the Gnani) see the formless as formless and we remain in the intent of the formless. To project a shape or form for the Self that is formless is tantamount to chopping off the Self. What a grave mistake is committed!”

“If there were past misdeeds, I do not believe we should nag or repeat them, never mind throw them in someone’s face. If they sincerely apologized and we genuinely forgave them, we must move on. Learn from mistakes, but move on. If we bring them up and toss them at the offender, we may not have actually forgiven them, even if we claim we have.”
