Questioner: For someone who has had this separation, what happens to him after death?
Dadashri: After death, he still has one more avatar (birth; lifetime) left. That is because, if he abides by the Five Agnas 'we' give him, there is one avatar still left for him.
So Stands the Nature of the World
Questioner: There are so many things about the workings of this world I do not understand, such as those who have come and received Atmagnan (Self-realization) from you, so why does it not happen to others?
Dadashri: This is not for everyone.
This is how it is: the whole world is like a flowing stream. So however much joins the sea, that much water becomes free (mukti), while the rest of it will find freedom, as it gets there. Therefore, this entire world is in the form of a flowing stream, which is why not everyone will attain this immediately.
Questioner: Why is it that some pebbles reach the ocean, while some stay in the middle?
Dadashri: It all depends on scientific circumstantial evidences. So as long as there is illusion (bhranti), it does not find freedom (mukti).
Doership Itself is Illusion Questioner: All these people have illusion (bhranti), so how do we get rid of this illusion? Show us.
Dadashri: What is the illusion about? Do you understand that?
Questioner: One has not known oneself.
Dadashri: That is all; just that much of an illusion has arisen. One has become unconscious of oneself, and that is why one has illusion (bhranti), there is no other illusion.
