your wages of one thousand rupees? Your boss pays your wages but it is all dependent on merit karma. When demerit karma (paap) takes over, the employees will abuse even the boss!
Questioner: Is this because the boss must have made the intent (bhaav) to employ him and he must have made the bhaav to work for that boss, and that is why everything has come together?
Dadashri: No, bhaav is not like that.
Questioner: Then is there some kind of a connection of give and take?
Dadashri: No, nothing like that. Questioner: Then why did he go to work for him?
Dadashri: No, that is their karmic account. Neither the boss nor the employee has any relation or acquaintance with each other in the past life. The boss had in his receptacle of the intellect (buddhi's ashaya), 'I want an employee such as this, and the employee had in his ashaya, 'I want a boss like that.' All this has been printed in their buddhi's ashaya, and so everything comes together without fail.
Even the children are born to one according to buddhi's ashaya: 'It is more than enough even if I have just one son. He will uphold my name,' and so the son will uphold his name according to his buddhi's ashaya. The Jains will say, 'It would be nice if our son takes the formal ceremony of renunciation of the worldly life (diksha); at least he will be blessed! Then those parents will happily allow him to take diksha. Try talking to other parents about diksha! They will refuse because they never did such bhaav to begin with.
Nature and Buddhi's Ashaya When one attains a wife, it is not because he had made
bhaav of 'I want this woman as my wife'; there is no bhaav, no acquaintance or familiarity. He meets up with her according to the buddhi's ashaya. Dravya, kshetra, kaad and bhaav are such that when there is a shortage of women, his buddhi's ashaya will be, 'I will marry any girl that I find, but I must find one!' So he will find such a one.' Now he complains that she is like this and she is like that. Hey! You are the one who made such a choice so what are you complaining about? He feels discontent when he sees someone else's beautiful wife. Nevertheless, he finds satisfaction only in his own home and he also says, 'I will stay only in my own house.
Nature is telling you, "You got what was in your buddhi's ashaya, so why are you complaining?' He complains when he sees someone else's bungalow, but ultimately he likes his own hut.
Buddhi's Ashaya of the Ultimate Kind
If his buddhi's ashaya is, 'I am tired of all this wandering around; it would be nice if I were to meet a Gnani Purush so I can find liberation,' then he will meet a Gnani Purush. Now no one is likely to do such a buddhi's ashaya, are they? How can people become free from this infatuation for the worldly life (moha)? The Doer of Pratishtha is Under External
Control Effect, location, time and inner intents (dravya, kshetra, kaad and bhaav) are constantly changing. Whatever comes out of your mouth is all an ego, but you continue to do pratishtha
instillation of life) with that. This ego is not your doing either Dravya, kshetra, kaad and bhaav make you do it. You can get rid of the ego when you receive Gnan from the Gnani Purush. Once the ego is gone, all pratishtha will come to an end. Then where will he go? He will go to moksha!
