Aptavani-9

Questioner: Dada we need to become free from this.
Dadashri: It is a very dangerous trap! Yet when the unfolding circumstances call for it, it is our duty to help people. However, it must unfold as a circumstance (udaya). There is nothing to gain from becoming a guru; it must come as result of unfolding circumstances. The circumstances will unfold on their own. It is a different matter if you are forced to sit on the seat you do not want to. Therefore you should not have any expectations for it.
Is anyone likely to fail, if he were to grade his own paper? Questioner: No one will.
Dadashri: If a person examines his own paper, gives himself a grade and fails himself, then I would consider his action as a true judgment, but that does not happen, does it?
Questioner: And here one even struggles to appear humble on the outside.
Dadashri: That is why I call it killing the Selfatmaghat! It will lead to one's suicide. All one has to 'see' is whether people are attracted. Are they? No, they are not. Then it means that a great amount of the disease of 'I know' exists within. Attraction verily is purity! Attraction will occur as purity begins.
Questioner: No, Dadaji, people do get attracted. They get attracted for a little while, do they not?
Dadashri: No. Not at all! Not even a bit! No one will stay. The bulb will blow out on the first day. People will manage to overlook for a couple of days but not for long. This here is a Gnani Purush and that is why you are able to know the faults and mistakes (dosh) that lie within you. Otherwise, how can you know of their existence? The ship will start sailing south! It heads south because the compass is malfunctioning. That compass will show south as being the north. Otherwise, the
442
compass always point towards the north; that is its nature. But if the compass malfunctions, what can anyone do? Furthermore one does not know how to look for the Northern Star.

Will you not have to know all these danger signals? Do you think you can ignore them?
Questioner: No, they are all very dangerous.
Dadashri: It is called the suicidal element (aapghati
tattva).
Questioner: Besides, it does not even let us progress
further. It will not allow the Gnan to unfold.
Dadashri: It will not. It will destroy everything. It will even bring down whatever is already in existence.
Questioner: The amazing thing is that the words that are expressing from You, 'touches that within exactly, they eradicate the disease within, they change the vision and we can exactly 'see' it working from within. Everything appears to be very scientific.
Dadashri: Only if the talk is completely scientific, will it bring closure (nivedo) to people, otherwise it will not.
"Marag sachaa meel gayaa, chhoot gayaa sandeha" "Having attained the right path, all doubts and suspicion are gone"
Suspicion and doubts are gone; the true path has been attained. You will have to walk back if you get lost. What else will you have to do? Those who want moksha will find that path. Simply ask Dada whether you are on the wrong path or the right one? Ask just this much. Do not ask, 'How is my Gnan?' Just ask, 'Am I lost or am I on the right path?' If Dada says, you are on the right one, then go ahead.
