constantly getting bound as a result of those mistakes and supporting them, people have turned away from the path of final liberation.
The Gnanis of the past had cautioned people about the mistakes that hinder the path to final liberation. However, one can steadily progress on the path, if the truly desirous devotee has, prior to achieving the path and after being on the path, a detailed description of the mistakes that hinder it. Nevertheless, the correct path is to complete it by completely surrendering to the Gnani Purush.
The Gnanis have said that bondage and obstruction on the path of liberation is because of anger-pride-deceit and greed. Being absolutely rid of these faults one attains final liberation. All faults are encompassed in angerpride-deceit and greed, but, how do these faults unfold and manifest in worldly interactions? This can only be understood when The Gnani Purush explains them in detail.
Gnani Purush is perfect light, and in his manifest illumination, it is inevitable that, in order to get freedom from all mistakes, one does the review of all mistakes alochana with the Gnani Purush. Gnani Purush can erase all the inner mistakes by direct interaction with the seeker. Whenever one has suffering from pain, has experienced difficulties, uneasiness or lack of spiritual experience, or has troubling attachments, and one does detailed alochan to Gnani Purush, he will show the light. And in that light, one can see all the mistakes, and find the way to get rid of the mistakes.
The main issue is that these mistakes have remained in the form of tubers. These tubers are always buried in the underground. Under the right circumstances, these tubers get water, they germinate and sprout into branches and leaves, and from that, one can find out which tuber is this, what disease is there. Unless the nature of the mistakes is identified, the mistakes continue to get supported and nourished. By coming to satsang of the Gnani Purush, by repeatedly listening to his speech, and by repeatedly understanding his interaction with specific questioner, one develops the awareness and one gets the strength to identify and visualize one's own mistakes. After that, one has generated the awareness to weed out the sprouts and by effectively practicing it; one can eradicate the tuber. But all that process is done after the agna guidance from the Gnani Purush, who shows one's mistakes in detail, helps to identify the nature of mistakes, thus helping one to become free from the mistakes.
