The Flawless Vision
The Flawless Vision
intellect is a way to liberation.
The intellect will become still either way, but that stillness should not come from blaming others. If you place the blame on yourself, your problems will be solved and the intellect will also be stilled.
This false use of intellect is what complicates and entangles the world. This is what prevents one from detecting one's own mistakes, and quickly brings forth many mistakes of the others. Those in whom the intellect does not arise have no problems whatsoever. There are so many animals and other such living beings on this earth and none of them complain. Only man complains, because the intellect arises.
Questioner: Dada, this is an extraordinary enlightening statement from you about pacifying the intellect! So far we were indeed pacifying the intellect by seeing the faults of others.
Dadashri: Yes. For the purpose of pacifying the intellect, people end up blaming others rather than themselves. What else can one do? People need to appease their intellect somehow, and so they blame others. So when the intellect becomes restless, what should you do? You should say that the fault is entirely mine. Therefore, the intellect will be stilled within. Otherwise the moment the intellect becomes restless, it sets the entire the inner complex of mind, chit and ego rippling into motion. It shakes up this inner complex, creating havoc. Until the intellect is pacified again it will continue to riot. Those without Gnan try to appease their intellect by looking at the faults of others and they do so at their own risk, while you who have Gnan will pacify it by looking at your faults exclusively. Once the intellect becomes pacified, the internal unrest will cease, if not the thoughts will continue to flow in a torrent of an endless stream.
If you say that the other person is at fault, then your intellect will become still and you will be able to finish your meal in peace. When you blame others, you prolong your worldly life times. We need to be rid of all worldly life interactions. Therefore, we say that the fault is mine only. And then also you will enjoy your meal in peace. Do you understand this?
Questioner: It is very easy to understand that the intellect can be pacified in these two ways.
Dadashri: Yes because as long as the intellect remains restless, it will not let you eat, sleep or do anything peacefully. When you feel restless, it is not your mind but your intellect that is restless. Once it has been pacified, the problem is solved.
Questioner: You say that the intellect can be pacified either towards worldly interactions or towards the Self...
Dadashri: Your intellect becomes still when you look at others' faults and so it will allow you to eat, drink and sleep in peace. It will let you do everything. But when you blame others, you perpetuate the worldly life. What I am telling you is that if you want liberation, you must accept that the fault is entirely yours and in reality this is the fact. The intellect will become still even if you take the blame on to your self. The intellect is indifferent to where the blame is placed, but it needs to be pacified all the same. You cannot function without pacifying your intellect. Have you come across anything like this anywhere in the scriptures?
The scriptures no longer have the final analysis of this world. I am making this clearly open now that no one in the world is at fault. What is apparently seen as rampant injustice, murders, riots, looting, acts of revenge, deceit etc., in all that, no one is at fault. This is the Real view. If you ever acquire the Real through this vision, your faulty vision will vanish. You will
