________________ the Self is considered the experience anubhav because the Self is present even before he wakes up. So the one whose suspicion is gone, has attained the absolutel Self. Otherwise, nobody's suspicions of, "What is the Self like?' are likely to go away. The suspicion and uncertainty of 'there is Atma' may away on occassion, but not the suspicion over 'What is the Atma like?' This is deeply entrenched. Turmoil and anguish will happen wherever there is suspicion. When there is no suspicion, not even for a fraction of a second; that is where the Self is. Then ther is no suspicion left. After Gnan, there is no one left to suspect Once suspicions depart, everything falls into place. However, the fact that the suspicion has indeed gone, should be clear to the owner, no? Just because someone else has been able to get rid of it, does that mean that you will be able to do so too? Not everyone has the same suspicions. So You have to have to ask within , 'What are you suspicious about? What kinds of suspicions remain?' One may reply, 'No, I do not have any suspicions left any more.' Those who do, will remain here for a while and by asking me questions, their suspicions will go away and their problems will be solved. Questioner: When you ask me who I am, I have suspicions about saying, 'I am Shuddhatma.' Dadashri: The one who has this suspicion 'I am Shuddhatma', is verily the Shuddhatma. So 'You are not sitting in the right seat. Take the correct seat, that seat will let you see who is having the suspicion. Gnan shows its presence, where there is such a suspicion Now, after attaining this Gnan when you do something and have a suspicion of 'will I be bound by my mistake?', at this time because of the presence of the Self, that suspicion will fade away. Otherwise, who would have such suspicions? Do people of this world have such suspicions? Why not? Because the Self is not present there.
