Aptavani-2
everyone around 'us' maintain order? It is because of our sheel. There are no laws or orders where the vitarag Lords are concerned. There is complete impartiality. If you want to fast for two days, the maharaj will give you his blessing and tell you, "Fast for two days. "His vachanbad which is the energy behind his words is such that you will constantly remember what he has told you and you will not take any short-cuts or cheat. Typically what happens is the disciples will grumble while carrying out the maharaj's instructions. The relationship of love between a true guru and a true disciple is such that the disciple will not mind anything the guru tells him, no matter how harsh.
There is not supposed to be any kashaya (anger, pride, deceit and greed) where there is a Jain and where there is kashaya, there is no Jain. The vitarag path is to become devoid of kashaya. When only the last fifteen lives before final liberation are left, one can say that he has attained vitarag dharma. He who listens to the Jina (the one who is the Self) is a Jain. There are no conditions or contracts with one who is a (true) Jain; their work is accomplished simply through their words. They do not need law enforcement, they just need the taxes. All the negativities will come to an end now. The end of this bad time (dusham kaal) is at hand. The general atmosphere of dusham kaal will continue, but at the same time the new dawn of harmony amongst human beings and the end of their misery is around the corner
at all. So let them roast completely and then you can enjoy them! Hindustan is headed for much more 'roasting. Nevertheless the result is going to be wonderful for a country which has brought forth a Gnani Purush and through whom 2103 have become Gnanis and there are many more such Gnanis to be. Never before have such Gnanis arisen. They will elevate all other religions too. All the religions which have become 'upset, 'we' will upset' them again! What will happen if 'we' do this? They will then be set-up properly! Who is the one not attached to the worldly life?
Many Sadhus refer to married people with contempt saying, "You are worldly, you are worldly (sansari)." But dear sadhu! You too are a worldly! Who says you are not? We do not deny that you have renounced the world and worldly connections. You have renounced woman, luxuries, clothes etc. We know all that, but maharaj you are still a worldly person. The Lord has made a division of two categories of the living beings, one is sansari (worldly) and the other siddha' (liberated Souls). Anyone other than the siddha is a worldly being. Of the worldly beings, the Lord has said He accepts all those who have become karan-siddha (the causal siddha i.e. in the process of becoming siddha) as siddha. The Lord affirms, "I call the causal siddhas as siddha; I call them asansari (not worldly)." Dear God! Do you mean to say that those who have become liberated are asansari and those who are in this world are also asansari? The answer is, 'Yes. I give that status to those who are causal siddhas (karan siddhas).' Then one may ask, "Dear Lord, you are giving this status to those who are causal siddha but what about the others, what wrong have they done?" The Lord explains, "Karan-siddha is considered as siddha because they are going to be siddha (fully liberated) in the near future and therefore we grant them the reservation of that seat right now." We ask, "Lord, why are you being partial in dealing with all of us here in this world? Why the division (bheda)?!" The Lord will
Progress in spirituality after suffering
Many people ask me, "Dada, what is to become of India? All the demonstrations against immorality and corruption, pollution, railroad strikes; what is all this?" I explain to them, "These are all potatoes that have been roasting in the fire pit and they have only been roasting for five minutes. So far only the skin and the surface are cooked. Now, what happens if you remove the potatoes at this stage? They would not be of any use
