________________ There are two types of prizes. One is to win a lottery and the other is to be robbed; both are scientific circumstantial evidences. The one whose speech is never associated with sect based divisiveness and entrenched opinions, where the speech is absolutely about the Self, is known as the absolute Self (Brahmaswaroop). There are infinite Souls. In the final liberation state each and every Soul is separate and remains in eternal bliss of the Self. The entire worldly life and its interactions are in the form of discharge (galan) and it is scientific circumstantial evidences (vyavasthit). All five senses are subject to unfolding karma effect (udayadhin). What causes bondage of karma? The very belief, 'I am Chandubhai', is the root cause of bondage of karma. One only has to understand the facts. This is a science. When thoughts happen and they torment you, You are only to 'see' them as separate. Thoughts arise in the mind. The mind will say, 'What if the car collides?' There You are to simply 'see' the thought and sit in the car peacefully and not get engrossed in the mind. When excessive pain happens tell it, 'Go to Dada.' The intellect (buddhi) does not let you get out of the worldly life. The intellect shows where profit lies and where loss lies; it causes inner burning. The inner burning stops forever when one is graced by the Gnani! Where there is right intellect (samyak buddhi) there are no sect based opinions! There is no divisiveness of, "This is mine and this is yours'! The 'outer' intellect is 'mechanical' and the 'inner' intellect is what makes one independent. That intellect too is 'mechanical'. 20 The independence it gives you leaves no superior over you. The 'mechanical' intellect gives worldly things. 'Who am I? What is the basis of my existence?' It is imperative to know adhaar and adhaari, meaning what support is and what being supported is. 'What is worth doing in the world, what is not worth doing", 'what is to be known and what is not to be known'; only this much needs to be understood. Viraha (pining, the fire of separation from a loved one) means there is no state of ease; it is only then that one becomes free from the worldly life. The pining of separation should be for the Gnani. This separation generates 'electricity' within and it energizes the Self! Viraha is considered a very valuable thing. Those who have come to know the Gnani, for many an era, come to have viraha. Such individuals are bound for moksha. Our real nature is Sat Chit Anand (sat - eternal, chitknowledge and vision, anand bliss). The Gnani Purush fractures your wrong belief and establishes the right one. After that you attain the awakened awareness, 'I am pure Soul'; You attain Gnan and then there is constant awareness! After that illusion (maya) and illusory attachment (moha) go away. The illusory attachment (moha) Gautam Swami had for Lord Mahavir Swami is called prashasta moha (praiseworthy and the best kind of illusory attachment). With that all worldly illusory attachments get destroyed and moksha is surely attained. Praiseworthy moha means attachment that happens for the one who will take you to moksha. It is not harmful moha. It will result in moksha; there may be a slight delay, but so what? Attachment for the Vitarags, attachment for the things that impart non-attachment (vitaragata) is called prashasta moha. Where there is doubt (shanka), there is the invasion of a cyclone! And for final liberation one has to be entirely doubt 21
