Aptavani-1
Aptavani-1 body?
Questioner : Yes.
Dadashri : Then have you ever wondered who you really are?
Questioner : No.
world? Did he have any unmarried children he needed to marry? Where does God live? What is his address? Is there such a thing as liberation, moksha?
Questioner : Of course there is liberation.
Dadashri : If God is the creator of this world and if there is such a thing as liberation, then there is an absolute contradiction here.
Questioner : Dada, how is that a contradiction?
Dadashri : If God is the superior over you and he was to grant you liberation, then you would have to do whatever he tells you. That means that he can dictate what you do. So how can you call that liberation? Liberation means complete freedom; no superior over you and no subordinate under you.
Dadashri : Before you purchased this watch or even the clothes you are wearing, you checked to see if they were of good quality. Even when you were looking for a wife, you looked very closely to see what she was like before you married her, did you not?
Questioner : Yes Dada.
Dadashri : So then have you ever inquired about your own Self? Have you thought about what is temporary and what is permanent? "All these are temporary adjustments." When You, the real Self who is permanent, mix it up with temporary things, how can you find the answer? If your equation is wrong to begin with, how will you find the correct answer?
Do you think it a trivial or a major error on your part that you have not realized your Real Self? Questioner : It is a huge mistake. It is a blunder Dada!
Creation Of The World
The World Is The Puzzle Itself...
The Christians, the Muslims, the Hindus, say that God created this world. They are correct by their viewpoints, but according to facts, they are incorrect. If you want to know the facts, I can give them to you.
Dadashri : Who do you think created this world?
Questioner: .....
Real knowledge (Gnan) accepts and incorporates the entire 360° (of viewpoints). I too accept the 360° and that is why I am a Gnani. Those who accept all points of views are considered Gnanis (the Enlightened ones, Self-realized beings). I am sitting in the center and that is why I am able to show you the facts. By fact God is not at all the creator of this world. This world has not been created by anyone. So how did it come into existence? "The world is the puzzle itself." We call it a puzzle because it has become puzzlesome. The world has formed itself. I have seen this in my Gnan (absolute knowledge, absolute vision and absolute experience). There is not a single atom in this world that I have not traversed through. I am telling you this
Dadashri : Say whatever is in your imagination. We are not here to pass or fail anyone.
Questioner: God may have created it. Dadashri : Why did God have a need to create this
