and it is impartial. There is nothing wrong in partiality, because it will keep you in a 'standard'. Whereas impartiality is 'out of standard'. 'This' (Akram Vignan) is a science; it is not a religion. The Hindu religion, the Jain religion, and Christianity, are all religions. There is only one science, but there are many religions.
The Limitations of Relative Religion
The religions of the world are 'relative' religions, which help in 'relative' matters. They help direct you towards the 'real'.
Questioner: Dada, what are the limitations of the relative religion that you speak of?
Dadashri: Whatever you experience through your five senses is within the prescribed limits of the 'relative'.
Questioner: Does the 'relative' have any connection with
the 'real'?
Dadashri: Of course it does! It is because of the 'real' that the relative came about. It is because of its affiliation to the 'real' that the 'relative' has arisen. This has created a phase. And the phase that has come about is temporary.
Questioner: As long as one has not attained the 'real', is there a need for the 'relative'?
Dadashri: Until one attains the 'real', everything is 'relative'. Only after one attains the 'real', does the 'relative' become separated.
The "Thermometer" of Real Religion
Dadashri: What do you do nowadays?
Questioner: I am reading the books of Shrimad Rajchandra (also known as Krupadudev, Gnani Purush of the Kramic path who became enlightened) and studying religion.
