________________ doing repentance or giving religious discourses, all are activities of the non-self. Only when one becomes absorbed with the Self (swa-ramanata), can moksha be attained! The one whose swa-ramanata has commenced, is indeed unattached and nonacquisitive even though he is immersed in an ocean of attachment and acquisitiveness. And the one who has not attained swa-ramanata is completely attached to all material things, despite having renounced the worldly life and attachment to all worldly and material things. This is because he is in pudgal ramanata. 'Once the detailed study and experience of the prakruti is completed, one becomes a Vitarag. - Dadashri 'We offer my highest obeisances to the eternal sadguru Dadashri gates' of moksha and this has been proven. An analogy of this is, although in these times, a check for Rs. 100.000 (final moksha) cannot be obtained, Dadashri gives us a check for Rs. 99,999.99 and many have obtained it! How much loss is there? There is a loss of only one paisa! The path to moksha' is open. One only needs to find it. *The one who wants to be free cannot be bound by anyone and the one who wants to be bound can not be freed by anyone.' Dadashri What is one bound by?

Where there is a living Gnani Purush, there is no need for scriptures or rituals. Merely complying with the Gnani's Agnas is religion; his Agnas verily is penance. Lord Mahavir has said, 'Agna is religion, Agna is penance The Lord also said that after 2500 years, the effect of Bhasmak Graha (planetary influence) will end and the Vitarag religion will, once again come in to magnificence. Now the 2500 years are over. With the manifestation of the Gnani Purush, what harm can come to the Vitarag religion? Moksha will come face to face when one becomes completely impartial; impartial even towards one's own (relative) self! There are two types of ramanata (absorption; inner attention: absorption of the self): one is in the non-self (pudgal ramanata) and the other is that of the Self (arma ramanata). The one who has not even the slightest absorption in the nonself will definitely attain the bliss of the Self. One cannot attain the Self as long as there is even the slightest of involvement with the non-self. From the moment one is born, he remains only in pudgal ramanata.
