Aptavani-2
rest is dharma of the prakruti. And what is the dharma of prakruti like? One prakruti invokes absolute fearlessness, another invokes severe terror. From the beginning of time one has encountered only the prakruti. In the end however, this prakruti will have to become Godlike. This Gnan of ours is such that the prakruti will become Godlike and You (the Self) will remain in eternal bliss.
Once one enters prakruti and becomes it, he becomes trapped and dependant. Once the obstacles of the prakruti are gone, he becomes the Self, and boundless inner energies arise within. People claim everything is prakruti, but prakruti has come into existence because of one's own mistakes and now it has taken control and see how it makes one dance. Circumstances are temporary but one believes them to be permanent.
Prakruti rendered natural through Gnan
Questioner : When prakruti becomes unnatural (vibhavik, asahaj), emotional, is it because more knots within begin to erupt? What exactly happens?
Dadashri : Yes, but it happens only when one encounters the evidence. A person may not collapse even if he feels slightly dizzy but if the evidences of dizziness persist, he will. Before Gnan, say if you had to catch a train and when you got to the station they told you the train would be fifteen minutes late, you would wait. And later on, they told you the train would be late by another half an hour so, again you would wait. But what would happen, if they told you the train would be delayed by another half an hour?
Questioner: I would become agitated and even curse the people that work for the railway.
Dadashri : The Gnan tells you that if the train is delayed, it is vyavasthit. Avastha matra kudrati rachna chhe, jeno koi bapoye rachnar nathi aney tey vyavasthit chhe - All states of
the non-self are natural occurrences. No one is independently responsible for their creation, and that is vyavasthit (scientific circumstantial evidences). When You say this much then, with the support of these Gnan words. You will be able to remain in
your' natural state. Since the beginning of time, prakruti makes one asahaj (unnatural and reactive). Now through Gnan, one brings it to its natural state. In reality, prakruti is sahaj, natural and spontaneous, but it becomes unnatural due to its tendency to react to situations and circumstances (vibhavik bhaav), because of ignorance. It has to be brought back into its natural state through the support of Gnan. Once the interference (dakho) into the relative (I am Chandulal), i.e. the worldly self ceases prakruti becomes sahaj. The Self then remains in bliss as the knower and the seer.
If Gnan prevails then even if you have to spend entire night waiting for the train, you will not have any problems. Whereas a person without Gnan will become so agitated that within half an hour he will be cursing everyone. Is the train or the guard going to be affected by his cursing? No, one is only slinging mud onto his own self. If there is Gnan, then the Self merely remains the observer of the difficulties that arise in a difficult situation as well as the ease in an easy situation; that verily is the sahaj Atma. This Gnan that 'we' have given you is such that it will not agitate you in the least. There would be no problems even if you were to be hung, because that too is vyavasthit. If that is going to happen then why not leave the world laughingly instead of crying?
Prakruti is reactive by nature The nature of the prakruti is like the touch-me-not plant: the moment you touch the plant it withdraws its leaves. When you get frustrated and tell your children, "I am tired of you", his or her prakruti will instantly withdraw and pull away just like the plant.
Therefore, you should tell your child, "I am not really tired of you" and remedy the situation, then he will not withdraw from you.
