unfold will only unravel when the time is ripe. The power to unravel these entanglements is not in your hands. That is why the Lord has said to do dharmadhyan, or devotional worship of God instead of worrying and waiting for the entanglement to unravel. When your hair grows long do you have to run around for a haircut? No, because circumstances come together and you will get a hair cut. Similarly these entanglements will unravel when the time comes
The world is a puzzle itself. It is a puzzle. It has become like a puzzle. If you solve the puzzle then your work will be done. "Lakha re chorashini bhool-bhoolamni na fera mara kaun
fade." "Who will bring an end to my wanderings of the eighty-four lakhs (84,000,000) lives cycle and pull me out of this labyrinth?"
How can you escape from this cycle of eighty-four million rebirths? Who will help you get out? Krupaludev has said that any embodied soul that escapes the wanderings of the cycle of eighty-four lakh rebirths, is considered a great one indeed.
By meeting a Gnani Purush, you have now found the way to escape from this horrible web. What can a Gnani Purush do for your mistakes? He can only show you your mistakes; He can only shed light on them. He shows you the way out by telling you not to protect your mistakes. If you protect your mistakes by saying, "I have to live in this world, how can I do that?" then you are nurturing your mistakes. Do not side with your mistakes. First you make a mistake, then you lament endlessly, for that you will have to wander endlessly
If you want complete freedom and liberty, you will attain it after you destroy all your mistakes. You can only find those mistakes when you realize who you really are. This happens when you become the Self.
Natural law : Fault is of the sufferer
The law of the Lord says whatever the location, whatever the time, the one who suffers is the one who is at fault. There is no need to ask any attomey about it. When someone's pocket gets picked, the one who picks the pocket is happy. He is eating and enjoying himself and during that time the one whose pocket he picked is suffering. Therefore the fault is of the one who is suffering. He must have stolen sometime in his past life, for which he got caught today therefore he is the guilty one (guilty of stealing in past life). The other person will be called a thief and suffer whenever he is caught.
"The fault is of the sufferer' is a very profound and hidden elemental principle. Here the intellect will become exhausted trying to understand it. The Gnani Purush sheds light where matignan (knowledge through the medium of the senses and intellect) stops working. This mysterious elemental secret needs to be understood at a very subtle level.
There is no one above you; no superior to reprimand you. Your superior is your own mistakes. No one else is at fault here The sufferer is the one at fault.
A doctor gives a shot of medicine to his patient and goes home and sleeps peacefully. But the patient suffers all night from pain from the shot. Who is at fault here? It is the patient and doctor's fault will become evident when he suffers for his mistake
There are two types of languages (bhasha): a language of illusion (bhranti) and the language of the vitarag. In the language of the vitarags only the sufferer is at fault.
