Autobiography of Gnani Purursh
Autobiography of Gnani Purursh life. I met all kinds of saints, but none worthy of making a guru. I had a lot of spiritual discussions with them and had served them but none were worthy of becoming my guru. I did read about all the human beings who became Gnanis, but did not meet any of them.
Shrimad Rajchandra cannot be considered a Guru for me because I did not meet Him personally. I had taken support of his writings along with some others, but his writings were the greatest support for me.
I used to read books by Shrimad Rajchandra, on Lord Mahavir, Lord Krishna's message in the Gita, volumes of Vedantas, works of Lord Swaminarayan and also of the Moslem religion. I discovered what they all are having within, trying to say, and covey. They are all are correct, but from their own perspective. Within their own degrees of spiritual vision, they are all correct. The total perspective is of three hundred and sixty degrees. Some are at fifty, some at hundred, some at a hundred and fifty. They are all correct. But no one has three hundred and sixty degree vision. Lord Mahavir had three hundred and sixty degree vision.
Questioner: From where did you acquire all this? Dadashri: It is a study of many many previous lives.
Questioner: What was it like initially for you, after birth? Where did it start from, after your birth?
Dadashri: After birth, I observed the religions of the Vaishnav, of Swaminarayan, of Shiv and many others. Then I studied Shrimad Rajchandra. Then I read all Lord Mahavir's books. I read extensively. This is all I did everyday while conducting my worldly business of construction.
Sincerity Towards The Vitarags,
The Fully Enlightened Ones Questioner: What else did you do?
Dadashri: Nothing except that I constantly remained sincere towards the vitarag Lords and towards Lord Krishna. I had no interest in the worldly life. I have never been greedy about anything. From my very birth, greed was not in my nature. As children we used to visit big gardens; they had all kinds of fruit trees; pomegranate, apples, oranges etc. The other children would bring back a lot of fruits but not me. I was never inclined to collect anything. But at the same time I had so much pride that I felt there was no one like me in this world and only I know how much that pride hurt me.
Questioner: What was it like for you, before this Gnan?
Dadashri: I had a feeling that I would attain the right vision of the Self. I had figured out what the true essence was from all the books I had read. I did understand it all and was convinced that the tirthankaras, the vitaragas are real and that their doctrine is absolutely correct. This was my spiritual search from endless past lives. My worldly religious conduct was like that of both a Vaishnav and a Jain. In some situations it was Vaishnav-like, while in others it was Jain-like. I always drank boiled water, even at work. Even you as a Jain would not have done that. But that is not the reason why this Gnan manifested. The Gnan manifested as a result of many other evidences coming together. Otherwise this phenomenon is not possible; the Akram science would not have expressed. This Akram science is the collective science of all the past twenty-four tirthankaras. This science is now the final opportunity for those who were not able to attain the Self when they were in the
