one's own separation and independence – that is the correct thing! If we do not have the experience of separation and independence, and in the final liberation (moksha) we have to merge and become one, then there is no point in going to moksha, it would be meaningless. Therefore all these are just thoughtless ideas.
Constant Immersion in Eternal Bliss – That

Questioner: So according to your assessment, what do you consider moksha (the final liberation) to be?
Dadashri: Moksha means, no boss, no subordinate and permanently remaining in one's own natural state of bliss. And one enjoys one's own bliss, on his own, independently. Every Liberated Soul (Siddha) is in its own state.
Questioner: So do all these many Liberated Souls (Siddha Atma) behave in their own different ways over there?
Dadashri: No, not in different ways. They all have the same nature (swabhav), which is only in one way. They have Knowledge (Gnan), Vision (Darshan) and bliss (sukh). They do not have conduct (charitra). If there were a Tirthankar Bhagwan here, He would possess Knowledge, Vision and Conduct (Gnan, Darshan and charitra), as well as a body. The Liberated Souls (Siddhas) over there, do not possess conduct (charitra). Over there, they always exist in their own natural bliss!
So there is no merging over there. There, you can enjoy your own bliss in an independent way. In the abode of the Liberated Souls (Siddha gati), all the Liberated Souls (Siddhas) exist in an independent way. And they all experience their own bliss. They experience constant Absolute Bliss (Parmanand). If just a minute's worth of their bliss (sukh), should ever fall to Earth, or happen to ever slip down, the entire world would
