Where there is no merit karma (punya) or demerit karma (paap), where there is no piousness or unholiness, where there is no dualism, where the Self has illuminated in the perfectly pure form-such is the state of a Gnani. If one gives adjectives to such a Gnani, the giver opens up to liability! To pay respect using adjectives to the one who has attained the absolute state is like decorating sunlight with a candle; yet one supports his ego by claiming, 'How well I described the Gnani!' What can we say to this? What can we do?
Every talk of the Gnani is original. There is not a drop of scriptures in His speech, there is no shadow of other preachers at all nor is there the language of any founder of a major religion! His examples and similes are exclusive. Even in His spontaneous, lively humor there is unfailing, deep meaning and originality. Here before the Gnani, everyone has the clear experience that he is removing his own conflicts by himself in his own language!
Experiential knowledge is contained in the heart of the Gnani. The one who is thirsty can attain satisfaction by dipping his vessel of surrender in the well of the Gnani's heart.
The Gnani's speech of knowledge. His words from experience, His heartfelt solutions about removing our mistakes, are solutions that are to be found nowhere else. His child like frankness and innocence come to surface and clearly indicate Him as a Gnani!
Every statement of the Gnani dances with joy on the highest stage of our heart!
Whoever has gone to the Gnani with a problem, the Gnani initially reads it as it is and ends his misery in such a natural way that, in just moments, the seeker is left with a feeling of awe and wonder of, 'Oh! I had this much difference of understanding in my vision?' Instead of the outward vision, if the vision was turned around 180° inward, the resolution could have been attained a long time ago! But let alone 180°, how can one turn even 1° by his own effort? That is the task of only the Gnani Purush.
Where the science of the Self has manifested entirely, where our search for the Self of infinite lifetimes can come to an end, how can we afford to miss the opportunity and return to wander around again in infinite lifetimes?
Not only the science of the Soul, but the science of the innate nature and makeup of the non-Self complex (prakruti) has simultaneously manifested. This phenomenon has not occurred anywhere else, but it is experienced here. Therefore, why not attain freedom from the 'web' of the relative-self by taking advantage of this science, and by experiencing the exact differentiation of the real-Self from tl relative-self? For how long will you remain crushed by the pressure of the relative-self? The science of going beyond the relative-self is at arm's length so why should we not open up the qualities of our own relative self in front of the Gnani? For those who want to be free, why should they protect the deformities of the relative-self?
When can the Gnani be known completely? When the Gnani's knowledge' is understood, as it is completely! At that time, the one who has understood it has probably become the image of the Gnani!
If the world can understand and attain such a Gnani who is a master of this knowledge, then it will delight in the joy of His praise. Then the nature of the world can be understood as it is and an absolute, unattached state can be experienced.
Any errors that may have occurred due to the limitations of writing on paper and the vastness of the speech of those devoid of all attachments (Vitarags), are those of compilation and for that our apologies and prayers.
