remained to the point of their own final liberation (nirvana) but the reign of Lord Mahavir will last twenty one thousand years after his nirvana, which occurred 2500 years ago.
People assert, 'moksha has stopped. Now what will become of these people? By thinking and believing moksha is not possible, they have abandoned the path to moksha and have become involved in other activities. Let me tell you what this is like. If there has been a drought this year, a person will say, "Do not plough or sow anything on this farm, you will waste your seeds. " It is like sitting and doing nothing.
Moksha through normality 'We have one desire and that is that the whole world turns towards moksha. Who can you say has turned towards moksha? It is when a person has 'walked' a mile towards moksha! Religions of today are not the path of the vitarag What is the definition of the vitarag path? It is when one becomes normal. Above normal is a fever and below normal is a fever. 97 is the below normal fever and 99 is the above normal fever. 98 is normality. Above normal and below normal are both fevers. Only a doctor looks at it this way, but the principle applies to every one. Normality is required in eating, drinking sleeping, in everything and that is what the vitarag path is all about. Today, everything is above normality and therefore everything has become poisonous. It is not anyone's fault. Everyone is trapped in the current time cycle.
Vitarag path means to come into normality in everything When a person becomes involved in penance, he gets lost in divisions and sects. Why do you fall into divisions? They are nothing but deep holes, you come out of one hole and fall into another. It is like cleaning just one corner of the home. Those who are involved in doing penance, do penance and nothing else, there are those who are involved only in renunciation and some only read the scriptures. Why are you are taking care of
only one corner? You will have to clean all the corners if you want to go to moksha. You will get the benefit of cleaning certain corners, but you will not be able to attain moksha. If you want life in one of the four life forms (human, animal, celestial and hell) then clean just one corner. I can give you that which will give you life in the human form again where people will sing your praise. But how long is it good for? Then wherever you turn, you will run into other people and create conflicts. Instead of asking for that, why not ask for something that will take you all the way to moksha? Take something from here that will give you a permanent solution.
Each Indian has enough energy in him to make the world tremble. Why do 'we' separate the Indians specifically? Because the Indians have the spiritual energy and development associated with it, however those energies remain stifled and covered by veils of ignorance. You need a nimit to unveil them. You need a nimit who is a bestower of liberation, only then will this energy be exposed. You need a nimit who has no enemies, not even celestial enemies, you need the one who is a bestower of moksha.
'We are telling you that the path to moksha is open. Thus a movement and activity will begin to gather momentum in that direction. It is an intrinsic property of the Self to move towards liberation, the physical body complex (pudgal) however pulls it down. The Self will ultimately win because it is living energy. There is no living energy in the pudgal; it is inanimate and that is why it does not have the capacity or the art of know how, whereas the Self has the art and will somehow manage to find a way to escape. Nothing can stop the one who wants to be free and nothing can free the one who wants to remain bound.
How can a person be free if he claims there is no liberation? Fair enough that liberation is not possible but one can at least touch the gates of liberation. One can even see the
