Aptavani-9
- of salvation, then proceed. You should not try to become ready on your own. This is not something one can get ready for. If you try to sell the siddhis - spiritual energy - what will the world not give you? But in the process you will lose your wealth of the human form. Not only will you lose it, but you will become eligible to go to hell!
Ours is the path to moksha where one has to go very silently and secretly.
Subservience to the Gnani Purush
Do not let go of this satsang no matter what others tell you. You will receive the Lord's grace - krupa - when you come here, and everything will fall into place. It will not take long at all. Problems and difficulties are inevitable on the way, which is why we say, 'In the face of all kinds of obstacles on the path to moksha, I am the one with infinite energy. At the same time the non-Self complex, as an opponent with its infinite energy is there too, which prevents Your moksha.
That is why the Lord has said, 'Proceed with subservience (aadhinta) to the Gnani Purush; follow his instructions. Even if he says something that does not quite sit with you or sounds crazy, follow his instructions all the way. This is because He is Vitarag. If you cannot understand through your intellect, then just make the decision that since you have understood and accepted nine of the Gnani's ten equations, it is immaterial if you do not understand the tenth one. Do not find Him at fault. Just accept the fact that it is your own mistake that you do not understand Him. Why is it that you cannot understand His one point when you can understand the rest? So do not find Him at fault here. He has destroyed all His mistakes. The intellect is bound to show you fault even in the Gnani Purush.
We can make do if it were a question of death of just one lifetime, but when you do viradhana - irreverence and negative talk about the Gnani Purush - you will incur deaths of a hundred
thousand lifetimes. Whose viradhana are you doing? Of a Vitarag?! You may curse this 'Ambalal Muljibhai' a hundred times over. Go ahead and do so if you don't agree with him! But generally people make this grave error without even understanding anything. That is why 'we' had to keep this Gnan a secret, and had continued to keep it a secret for many years.
I have said that I am taking you to a very high place. If you fall from there, you will not find even a fragment of your bones. So either do not come up with me or if you want to come with me, then tread very gently. Moksha is simple and straightforward; this Vignan is such that it guarantees final liberation in one more lifetime. But do not come up with me if you want to misbehave. I have already told everyone this. This road goes up very high and there will not be a bone left to be found if you fall from there. All the same, some who have come up with me, often worry and tell me, 'He is likely to instigate again; he will do this. However, I have built such a protection for him that he will not fall. Just as the authorities have installed guard barriers, I too have a protection barrier. I have not allowed anyone to fall yet.
Behold the compassion of the Gnani
The Gnani Purush will show you whatever disease' there may be within. He will not show you any other faults (dosh).
This is because He wants to cure you of the disease. Do doctors cure a patient's disease or increase it? Besides, are 'we' saying all this for our own goal or benefit? 'We' are saying all this especially for you and that too with vitaragata - absolute and complete detachment. The disease will not be eradicated without stern words. What removes this disease? Vitaragata and stern words! The sternness in those words is such that it will break every joint in your body. And at the same time those words are filled with complete vitaragata.
This 'Dada' sits leisurely as he continues to cleanse
