Aptavani-6
Questioner: I continue to repent for my actions of disrespecting and speaking ill (viradhana).
Dadashri: One will have severe regrets, experience misery, suffer and be restless; there will be no end to that. It will not let one off, will it?
is not called delirium, but it is called a crack. If you wonder why someone is talking a certain way, you can say that that the 'engine has a crack in it and that he should take it to Dada to have it 'welded. Even a new engine can develop a crack! When a person cannot cope with suffering, and if he is a good man, he will develop a crack. Otherwise, he will become a shameless rogue. It is better to have a crack than become a shameless rogue. At least we can weld the crack and the engine will start working again. All these new engines came from Lancashire, England, but how can they run when the heads are cracked? Even the heads of human beings crack; they will say odd things. You ask them something and they will tell you something completely odd.
Therefore, there is no value to these virtues and attributes of the relative-self (prakrutik gunas) at all. What happens to a dish of delicious Basmati rice the next day? It will start smelling! That is how these attributes or virtues of the non-self (paudgalik gunas) will start smelling. A businessman may appear very kind but when he gets aggravated with his employees, that is when his unkindness will come out. You will not want to witness it. Therefore, all this is worth understanding! The Consequences of Viradhana of the Gnani
Purush
Questioner: It will never come to an end; is that so, Dada?
Dadashri: 'No end' means it is not something that will come to an end within two or four days. Someone's 'tank' may be the size of this room and another person's 'tank may be as large as the entire building. Will there not be a difference between the two?
Questioner: But, Dada, it will empty one day, will it not?
Dadashri: It will empty. You go about your business believing that it will empty, but you should not make the same mistake again. Otherwise, that pipe will close. If that mistake was going to occur again, then it is better to fast three times, but do let not allow disrespecting and speaking ill (viradhana) to happen.
Key to Pleasing the Gnani Questioner: Dada Bhagwan, what should we do in order to understand and know who you truly are? Also, what spiritual development must we attain in order to please you (Dada's rajipo - to please Dada)?
Dadashri: You only need absolute humility (param vinaya) in order to win 'our' rajipo (we are pleased with you); nothing else. Rajipo comes only from absolute humility. There is no such thing as winning our rajipo by massaging our legs and feet. One will not win my rajipo even if he drives me around in his car. One attains it from maintaining absolute humility (param vinaya).
Questioner: What are the consequences of talking or behaving negatively (doing viradhana) against a Gnani Purush in the past life? I have all such traits in me; can they be pardoned or will the consequences of past actions have to be suffered?
Dadashri: The Gnani will make use of all the medicines he has in his armamentarium. The Gnani is compassionate and, therefore, He will help cure whatever is in His hands. One has to suffer the consequences of that which the Gnani has no control over because the dissolution of karmic effects and consequences (visarjan) is in the hands of nature.
