Trimantra
Dadashri: Vyavasthit is when, if the obstacles were not meant to be removed, then until that time you would not be able to recite the Trimantra: you should understand vyavasthit in this way.
Questioner: Despite reciting the Trimantra if the obstacles are not removed, what can we infer?
Dadashri: You would not know how large that obstacle was and how small it became. Only I know that.
Navkar Means Namaskar
Questioner: Many people recite the mantra only to the line 'loyhe savva Sahunam', and others say, 'Aiso paanch namukaro,' and finish the Navkar mantra, is that all right?
Dadashri: If they do not recite the last four lines, it is fine. The mantras are only five in all. The remaining four lines are to stress the importance of the mantra.
Questioner: Shree Krishna and Mahavir Swami - who are they?
Dadashri: They are Gods. They are Gods with a physical body. Why do we call them God? It is because the Lord has completely manifested within them. That is why we call them God, even when they have a body.
The Lord otherwise called Vasudev, manifested within Sri Krishna. There is no doubt about this, right? Vasudeva is Narayana, the supreme Lord, who manifest in a human being (nara).
Lord Mahavir and Lord Rushabdev were absolute and complete manifestations of the Lord. Lord Krishna is called Lord Vasudev. He has one more life time left.
From Human Being To The Lord Questioner: Can you explain in detail the mantra 'Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya"?
Dadashri: Starting from the time of Lord Rushabdev until now, there have been nine vasudev bhagwans. Vasudev means those who have evolved from an ordinary human being into God; that state is called vasudev. There is no penance or renunciation here. Along with every vasudev, there will also be their opponent called a prativasudev (prati - opposite). On the one side a vasudev is born and on the other a prativasudev. They are the Pratinarayan! The two will engage in a battle against each other. Also along with these two, there will be nine baldevas, as brothers or stepbrothers of vasudev. Krishna is vasudev and Balram is baldeva. Lord Ramchandra was not a vasudev, he was a balram. Laxman was vasudev and Ravan was prativasudev. However, Ravan too is praiseworthy; he is extremely praiseworthy. But people in India make his effigies and burn them instead. How can this land be blessed? How can this country be blessed where the wrong kind of knowledge is
Questioner: Is it called Navkar mantra because of the nine stanzas it has?
Dadashri: No, it is not like that. These are not just nine stanzas. The word Namaskar is the same as Navkar. The original word is Namaskar mantra but in the Maghadi language it is called Navkar, so Namaskar is now Navkar. It has nothing to do with the nine stanzas. In all there are only five namaskars.
Om Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya
Questioner: Please explain the next mantra "Om namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya'.
Dadashri: Vasudev Bhagwan! These are beings that have evolved from being ordinary human beings (nara) into God - Narayan. To such beings I bow. When they become Narayan, they can be called Vasudevas.
