Aptavani-8

Questioner: Everyone has bliss (sukh) over there, do they not?
Dadashri: They all experience the same bliss. In the awareness of the elemental nature (vastutva), tremendous absolute bliss (parmanand) is always there!
Questioner: Just like we get a full house at a cinema theater, is there the same kind of full house there too?
Dadashri: That is your imagination (kalpana). There is so much vastness over there, that in spite of the infinite number of Liberated Souls (Siddhas) over there, an infinite number of Siddhas will be continually going there. Everything over there is infinite!
Questioner: In this world, the Atma can only exist if there is the presence of matter (jada), and if not, is the Atma able to exist on its own?
Dadashri: What you said is correct. The Atma can never exist on its own in this world. It is only in the realm of the Liberated Ones (Siddha gati) that the Atmas can exist on their
own.
Questioner: So there are no other surrounding conditions, besides the Siddha gati, where the Atmas can exist on their own! Dadashri: Yes. That is true.
Questioner: Could it also be that if we go to moksha, we may encounter all of this again?
Dadashri: No. There is nothing like that. The reason it happens like that over here, is because here, we have all these circumstances (saiyogo). In this location (Earth), these are the circumstances that we have, which is why it happens this way. But over there, these circumstances do not exist. Therefore it is not possible for this to happen, nothing like that can ever occur again.
