world is flawless (nirdosh), the one who kills is faultless, the one who dies is faultless, and the one who saves the dying is also faultless!
The root of all misery is ignorance (agnan). Because of ignorance there are kashays (anger-pride-deceit-greed) and it is verily the kashays that bite and sting you day and night!
After Self-realization rituals such as chanting, penance, etc., are no longer necessary. Just remaining in the Agnas of the Gnani Purush brings moksha.
Only upon meeting the Gnani can a separation within be attained and only then is one able to 'see' within, and because of this one becomes free.
When the Gnani speaks of the experiences of the Self, the intellect grasps it, but that too, only when one listens to the Gnani's direct speech that the intellect becomes samyak (right), and only the samyak intellect can grasp it; otherwise it does not pass beyond the ears. The Gnani's words flow after having touched the absolute Self and that is why they are able to touch the listener; it breaks down all the barriers and consequently his mind, intellect, chit and ego are able to accept them. People's words are spoken after they have touched their mind; therefore, they only touch the listener's mind.
When there is involvement in circumstances, there will be uneasiness and when one dwells in the Self, there is continuous steadiness! The Self 'knows' the state of the non-Self complex and the Self stays the Self. Thus, all the barriers are broken down and everything is cleansed.
The Gnani is always in a state that is detached from the body. He is only in the Knower-Seer state. Therefore, no pain can touch Him at all. The nature of the Self is such that no pain can touch It!

and does 'invention' (analyses of his situation and looks for solutions) will make spiritual progress. The progress of the one remaining in comfort (no worldly problems) will be clouded.
To attain moksha is the right of every human being. One only has to surrender to the Gnani.
In the current time cycle Akram Vignan is the last train to moksha, whoever grabs this opportunity will quickly attain moksha. After this there is no hope for thousands of years!
Changes in lifespan cannot be made by anyone, whether one is a saint, a highly evolved Soul, a Gnani, or a Tirthankar.
In samadhi maran (death while being in the state as the Self) physical pain will not torment him at all. His final hour will be one of absolute samadhi (state of being unaffected despite all external and internal turmoil and being the Self). All those who have received Self-realization through Akram Vignan will see Dadashri in their final hour or they will only have the awareness of 'I am pure Soul'. The body complex will be experienced as a separate entity; the one dying will be experienced as a separate entity. A balance sheet of the entire life will present at the time of death.
The Siddha Bhagwants (absolutely enlightened Ones without a body) are located only in the Siddha Kshetra (location at the crest of the universe where all absolutely liberated Souls ultimately reside). They are in absolute knowledge (kevalgnan). They are in eternal infinite bliss (param sukh) and they are able to 'see' and 'know' the entire universe.
'To see the pure Soul', what does it mean? The Soul cannot be seen with these physical eyes. If a valuable diamond is placed in a box and the box is closed, it will be in the awareness that, 'there is a diamond in this box and it is of such and such kind'; similarly, after attaining Self-realization, the mind-intellectchit-ego will all accept that, 'I verily am pure Soul and everyone
