Dadashri: Because, if this 'Dada Bhagwan (within) were in a physical form, then people would think that He is singing and making others sing His own praise. It is in fact not like that. In the Gita, Lord Krishna has sung it this way too, but people are not able to understand, are they? The Lord says, "You verily are Lord Krishna (the Parmatma). Now, how can they understand this unless they have attained the knowledge of the Self?
The one listening and the one doing the singing or saying, is doing' satsang (company of the eternal Self) of the Self. This science (vignan) is such that no one has to do it for another person. One is automatically doing it for one's own Self.

Is what you see, 'Dada Bhagwan'? No, he cannot be *Dada Bhagwan'. The one you see is A. M. Patel and he is from the town of Bhadran. 'Dada Bhagwan is the one who has manifested within!
In what form is He? He is in the form of Knowledge (Gnan), vision (darshan), conduct (charitra), and penance (tapa). The experience derived from all these, that is 'Dada Bhagwan
This is Patel. This 'bubble' (physical body of A. M. Patel the Gnani Purush) may burst tomorrow and people will burn it but no one can burn 'Dada Bhagwan' because fire is gross and the Self (the Arma) is subtle. How can gross burn that which is subtle? Similarly 'Dada Bhagwan' in the form of Gnan, darshan, charitra and tapa, resides within you too! And that is who you yourself are!
