Aptavani-8
the body (dehadharma), the nature of the mind (manodharma), the nature (dharma) of the intellect (buddhi), the nature of the inner working complex comprised of the mind, intellect, chit and ego (antahkaran); or any kind of dharma (states of nature or religion). And that is because you have attained your own true nature of the Self (swadharma).
Questioner: So after entering the nature of the Self (swadharma) do we need anything?
Dadashri: After entering the nature of the Self, you have no need for anything else. All these mahatmas have come into the nature of the Self (swadharma). Therefore, they have no need for thought. As long as one has not come into the nature of the Self, there is a need for thinking.
Questioner: Because Krupadudev (Kramic Gnani) has said, 'Kar vichaar toh paam (if you think, you will attain)'.
Dadashri: Yes, 'if you think, you will attain' he said. However, those thoughts are all layers of coverings (avaran). Nevertheless, what Krupadudev has said, is correct. Those are very elevated thoughts; they are not like the thoughts worldly people think about.
Questioner: No, no. Not those thoughts; only thoughts about the Atma.
Dadashri: That is all, only thoughts related to the Atma. And even so, what kind of thoughts? Those whose link does not get broken. So the thinking process is uninterrupted. Only when your thoughts are like that, do you understand perhaps some of what the Atma is all about. Otherwise, the Atma is very difficult to understand. And if you find a Gnani Purush, it is possible to attain the Atma very easily.
All these mahatmas have already attained the Atma. And they can all see your Atma. Through a divine vision (divya chakshu), they can all see your Atma.
