that is called raudradhyan. And the fruit of raudradhyan will be Narak gati (a life in hell). Now tell me, would the Lord have spoken justly or unjustly? The Lord would not have spoken unjustly, now would he? The vitarag Lord would never be unjust.
Now, why can a person not tolerate insult or hurt? It is because, ‘he has not known religion, has not listened to religion, nor has had faith in religion. He has not heard real religion yet. If he listens to the religion (dharma) and establishes faith in it, then the religion would help him. However, religion does not wait, does it now? You are not the only one who has this problem. Real religion is that which frees you from all kinds of suffering (dukh). How can you call it a religion when it increases one's suffering?
The Path of Moksha Is... There is only one path to moksha (ultimate liberation), and not two. When you look, you will see that there is only one path that leads to moksha. Gnan (knowledge of the Self), darshan (vision of the Self), charitra (conduct) and tapa (internal penance) are the four pillars of moksha. And when you look, you will notice that they are always the same four pillars. Then the roads that lead to them may be different. Some are Kramic paths, in which one does chanting and penance (japatapa) for one's progress; climbing up cumbersomely one step at a time.
Another one is the Akram marg, which does not require you to climb any steps, but simply puts you on an elevator (lift)! Go for whichever path that suits you. Do you want to take the lift, or would you rather climb?
Questioner: Wouldn't it be easier and straightforward to take the lift?
Dadashri: Then come to me, and within an hour you will
