________________ "This is not 'T', this is ‘I”, is the Self. There should all such awareness, “This is l' and not this.' Questioner: In what instances 'I am- potey' is not, and in what instances 'I am-potey' is? What does 'one' 'see' in it? Dadashri: In all aspects. When 'we' give you Gnan, 'we' give you Gnan of, what 'I am and what 'I am not. Questioner: That separation that happened within is the Self? Dadashri: That is it! That is the Atma-the Self. Questioner: Now that state should remain continuously, should it not? Dadashri: One should not forget to apply the awareness laksha to maintain the separation. Then later, continue to do the same, again and again. Then one becomes the Self. When you fasten the buttons on your shirt, you instinctively know that the shirt can be removed; you have the knowledge this part is the shirt' and 'this part is I', do you not? Or does it all appear to be the same? Questioner: No, there separation is known very well. But the phases avastha of the mind, body and speech arise and change constantly. So is it not here that an uninterrupted awareness is called for, awareness of this is I and all this is not I'? Dadashri: All this is not complex and involved. Somewhere, it is left, and there, are instances where one has an 'interest and that is when one has to say, 'This is not mine.' Otherwise, agter Gnan, one has indeed been separated and remains separate as the Self. Then later there is some interference and mixing. Questioner: So no matter what kind of results unfold, one should have the laksha awareness 'thist is not mine'? Dadashri: Yes, this is I and this is not I'!
