________________ Dadashri: That is why I am asking who has come into spiritualism? Who has come closer to the Self? When one becomes desire less and keeps no note of anything, then he comes closer to the Self. It is not possible to be careful, exact and precise in the worldly life and come closer to the Self at the same time. That is why the Lord had said that one will have to leave home and come to Him if he wants moksha. Why is that? Because it will not happen by remaining at home. For us here in Akram Vignan however, we have to achieve all that while living at home. So what do 'we' make people do? 'We make them stop making intense mental notes. Remain at home but without keeping intense mental notes. What you need to 'keep' in the worldly life is not to be kept here and what is to be kept here is not to be kept there. Intense mental note taker is not You: Do not agree with him Questioner: What should one who is desirous of liberation do if making intense mental notes—nondha has become part of the prakruti? Dadashri: You have to tell Chandulal, 'Now stop making notes'. Questioner: But what should he do about this prakruti that is bent on keeping intense mental notes? Dadashri: 'We—the Self and the awakened Lord within' do not have a problem with the prakruti doing it, do we? In fact 'we' are doing it in collaboration with the prakruti. There will not be any note if 'our' collaboration-agreement goes away. The prakruti will not even do it; it will get tired of it. If you do not make a note then other person will not do it either. If I do not make a note of what you take from my shop then you will not do it either. You yourself will say, 'He does not make a note so why should I?' Is that not the rule? Questioner: This inner note taking, is easily forsaken when one gets to taste the sweet bliss of Your Gnan, Dada. Dadashri: Yes, otherwise such habits do not leave. Questioner: Otherwise and until then, it is very difficult to let go of making intense mental notes.
