abhorrence towards anything; whether you insult him or shower him with flowers. His speech is syadvaad, which means that it does not hurt anyone's religion or anyone's viewpoint at all.
There Is No Method to Gnan
Questioner: You move around in a liberated state, but how did you acquire the special powers (siddhi)?
Dadashri: Just like you, many people ask me the same question, and I have to say to them, "Do you want to imitate me? You will just waste your efforts, if you try to imitate me." 'This is but natural.' Even the Gnan that manifested within me happened on the bench where I sat, amidst the terrible hustle and bustle of the Surat station.
Questioner: You say that Gnan that manifested was “but natural". Can you explain what you mean by that?
Dadashri: "But natural" Gnan happens to only few people. If someone says, "I did it myself," then that Gnan remains incomplete. This Gnan happened 'naturally' on its own. If one did it himself, then the vikalp (the ego of 'I am Chandubhai'), would decrease by 80 percent, but 20 percent would still remain. But this is the Science of the Vitarag, which means that it is a 100 percent nirvikalp (ego-less state).
The Gnani Gives Proof of Moksha Questioner: What do you do on a daily basis?
Dadashri: I constantly live in my moksha; even at this present moment I am in my moksha. The speech that is emitting, comes from a 'recorded tape'. I am not its owner. I just see whether that speech comes out 'right or wrong'.
Questioner: When your 'tape' within is not saying anything, does it mean that it is just gone 'blank"?
