this world. The Supreme Divine Lord resides in every living entity, so whom will you hurt? Who will you harm?
The Science Behind The Ultimate Ahimsa
After this Gnan, one becomes a Pure Soul. When one understands the nature of the Self, all negative karma or violence that occur, is not part of the Self. Such an individual has complete awareness of the Pure Soul.
As long as you believe that, 'I am picking this flower and I am committing violence' then the laws of violence will bind you. The same laws also bind the people who do not have this awareness. It is only when you attain the realization of your real Self that violence will not affect you under any circumstance.
But as long as one has doubts and feels responsible for the acts of violence, one should ask "Chandubhai' their relative self to recite the following prayer five times each morning: 'I do not want to hurt any living being with my mind, my speech or my body. This is my absolute resolve". When you recite this with Dada Bhagwan as your witness, all the responsibility will then be His.
Emperor Bharat, in spite of engaging in wars and having thirteen thousand wives, was able to remain in his enlightened state. How did he manage to do that? What spiritual knowledge did he possess? Nowadays a man with just one wife gets frustrated.
Emperor Bharat expresses to Lord Rushabdev, 'Lord, I am fighting this war in which so many lives are destroyed. What is worse is that I am taking human lives. I can understand violence against the smaller lives, but here I am killing human beings. And it is all as a result of fighting war.'
Those of you who have no doubts need not worry. I have no doubts, but it is natural for you to have them because this Gnan has been given to you. There is a tremendous difference in the way a man relates to his world when he has gone through life earning and laboring for money and another whose money has been handed to him.
Lord Rushabdev replies, This is all a result of your past karma, which you will have to settle.'
In reality the Soul that the Gnani Purush has come to know, can never hurt anyone, nor can it be hurt by anyone. And that is the nature of the Real Self.
Suffering, Non-suffering And The Self
"But I too want liberation. I do not want to sit around and wait.' the emperor beseeches.
To this, Lord Rushabdev says, 'I am giving you this Akram Vignan. This science will take you to liberation. Despite living with your queens and engaging in wars, nothing will affect you. You will be able to remain absolutely untouched and separate.' Such is the Gnan I am giving you.
A man once asked me what he should do to be able to tolerate mosquitoes. I told him to sit and meditate and just observe the mosquitoes if they bite him. He insisted that he could not do that, so then I told him that whenever a mosquito landed on him, he should say, "I am beyond suffering; suffering is not my nature" In this way, he would gradually come nearer to his home department' (the Real Self). And after going through
