Who Am I?
I asked these scientists to discuss with me their evidence that God indeed created this world. I asked them in which year it was created. They drew a blank. I then asked them whether or not the world had a beginning and they said that it did. If there is a creator, then there has to be a beginning. If there is a beginning, then there has to be an end. In fact, this world is anadi-anant (no beginning-no end). This world carries on without an end. Therefore, there is no beginning and there is no end. If there is no beginning, then there is no creator.
GOD'S CORRECT ADDRESS
Then these scientists asked me if all this meant that God does not exist. I told them that if God did not exist, then there would be no experience of pleasure or pain for anyone in this world. So God definitely exists. They asked me where God lives. I asked them where they thought he lived. They pointed towards the sky. I asked them where exactly was he to be found, what his precise address was and whether one could mail a letter to him. They did not know. I told them there is absolutely no one up there. I myself had been there and checked, since everyone says that God lives up there. I have looked for God there, but there is nobody up there; only the vast open sky! Nobody lives up there! When they asked me for God's correct address, I told them to write this down: 'God is in every creature, whether visible or invisible. Not in creation!
This record-player is a manmade creation. God does not reside in any manmade things. God resides in nature. God is present in all things that are naturally created. Therefore, God resides in every creature whether visible or invisible. Between you and I there are infinite invisible creatures, which cannot be seen even under a microscope. God resides in all of them. Now what does God do? He only gives light to every living
being. How to utilize that light is up to each individual. Whether one performs good deeds, like giving alms, or bad deeds, like stealing or cheating, one does so at one's own risk. You are free to use this light for whatever purpose you want to.
You too believe that he is up there don't you? There is no one up there. It is your wrong belief that someone is up there. I have come to reveal to you that all these beliefs are wrong and unless this is openly declared, things can never be resolved. All your wrong beliefs and confusion will remain. Traditional beliefs will not die. THE WORLD IS THE PUZZLE ITSELF
"The world is the puzzle itself". It has puzzled itself. God has not created this puzzle. If God had created this puzzle, then we could hold him accountable for all the suffering in this world. We would ask him why he makes people suffer. But God has not created this puzzle. God is God; God is the state of permanent bliss. We accuse him because of our own ignorance and that is our mistake, which is why this world has puzzled itself. No one else has created this puzzle.
Now if someone were to say, “Chandulal has no sense", would it not give rise to a puzzle"?
Questioner: Yes, it would.
Dadashri: If someone were to insult me right now, it would not faze me, but for you the puzzle will arise, because you are bound. The ropes of ignorance bind you. The wires of ignorance bind you.
Questioner: So how can this puzzle be solved for us?
Dadashri: There are two viewpoints to solve this puzzle: One relative viewpoint and one Real viewpoint. Real is
