Dadashri: In this Vignan you can get your sons and daughters married, that is, you can carry on with your worldly life and celebrate everything. Nothing will hinder You because it is all relative and You are in a state of laghutam. So go ahead and celebrate with as much pomp as you want because where does your khumari lie? It lies in the state of laghutam. Those who have the khumari of gurutam have problems but the khumari of laghutam will remain for sure.
To attain the Self is verily the gurutam
When one becomes laghutam, the Self is gurutam. So there is no need to make the atma (the self) gurutam. It is necessary for you to become laghutam.
Questioner: If one becomes laghutam then the soul (the self) will become gurutam, but the Soul (the Self) by nature is aguru-laghu neither heavy nor light.
Dadashri: It is aguru-laghu but that is a different perspective. What does gurutam mean? It means to proceed towards the state of the aguru-laghu. That is gurutam.
Questioner: But it is not aguru-laghu in reality?
Dadashri: Now that is different. Its absolute state is aguru-laghu and in the worldly interaction (vyavahar) when it becomes laghutam, then gurutam is the state in the real. I easily remain laghutam in the relative and the Self and within there is gurutam all the way.
Test examination of the laghutam
Questioner: Give us an example of You having become laghutam in the relative realm.
Dadashri: For example, 'we' are verily the open, talking Upanishad, are we not? 'We' are the talking Puraan, are 'we' not?!
I will explain what it means to become laghutam in the

relative perspective. Say if someone is giving you a ride in a car and one of his relatives comes along. If he tells you to get out of the car because of his relative, you should do so without being affected. A little later, he tells you to get back in the car and so you get inside the car. Again, another of his relatives comes along and he asks you to come out again. Again, you should get out without being affected. What if this happens eight to ten times? What usually happens to people? They get upset. They get terribly upset.
Questioner: One will be terribly upset the first time it
happens.
Dadashri: And 'we' remain the same, unperturbed even if they were to do that to 'us' twenty seven times! 'We' will get out and get back in because 'we' have become laghutam.
The Foundation of Akram Science
Laghutam is our center. Gurutam is attained while sitting comfortably in that center. Our theories are unique and completely new!
The foundation of this Akram Vignan is to remain laghutam and maintain abheda drashti - vision of oneness; no separation with anyone. To keep this vision of oneness (abheda drashti) with all living beings in the entire universe is verily the foundation of Akram Vignan. This Vignan is not without a foundation.
All other activities (kriya) are occurring automatically; they continue mechanically. There is a big difference between vision (drashti) and 'mechanical'- that which is occurring by itself. Vision is the main thing and the mechanical part is a different thing all together.
The one, who has not received, decided or experienced the vision of becoming a disciple of the whole world, cannot become a Mahavir (the fully enlightened One). It is the vision of
