________________ The Flawless Vision The Flawless Vision Do your mistakes shine within? Questioner: Yes I can see them. Is it because I have the vision of flawless conduct (I am pure Soul), but my current conduct (Chandulal's) is flawed that I am able to see? Dadashri: Yes, instantly. The Flawless (The Self) is aware of the flaws (The relative self, Chandulal). Highest Spiritual Effort: Samayik Thus faults begin to be seen. As they are seen they leave. Can you see some of your mistakes? Can you see at least five to ten a day? Once you begin to see them, you will begin to see more, increasingly more. The more mistakes you see, the more the veils of ignorance that cloud your vision will break, allowing you to see even more. You may not be able to stop certain mistakes (heavy karma effect). These will only stop after you experience the suffering they entail. I know that such karma will not end without the suffering. Only the experience through the suffering will release one from it. you begin to see your mistakes. After Gnan you become impartial, but the residual partiality towards your physical body becomes like the relationship you have with your neighbor. So whatever faults there are, you will see and as you see them, they will begin to leave. Nothing Touches The One Who Remains In Flawless State Now it is this Gnan that shows you your faults. If Chandubhai (your relative self) becomes angry with anyone, you (the pure soul) will become aware of the many faults in him. The one that has become impartial and sees the faults is the Soul. Faults will not touch you as long as you are the Soul. And if you are in the state of absolute flawlessness, should you do something wrong, your actions will not affect you. No karma touches the one who maintains the State of The Self. Acharayas (religious leaders, teachers) tell me that they practice ahinsa (non-violence) because they walk barefoot, while I on the other hand travel by car whereby so many insects get killed. They agree that my Gnan is correct, but they are not convinced that I am not creating new karma through killing insects when I travel by car. I tell them that I am in established as The Pure Self, the flawless state. Therefore I am unaffected and do not bind new karma. Science Impeded by Accusation Whose faults will you see if you see the others as faultless? Questioner: The greater the ignorance, the greater the faults of the others will be seen. Dadashri: Yes, to these people, others appear to have You can put in as much spiritual effort as you want. Many of the mahatmas are already doing this. There is purushaarth (highest inner effort), but not everyone knows how to do it. Doing samayik (to view the flaws via the flawless state, to view the mistakes of the relative self by being the Real) is a great purushaarth. The nature of a mistake is such that the moment it is discerned, it begins to dissipate. It does not linger on. There is nothing wrong with making a mistake, but you should be able to see that mistake. There is no punishment for making mistakes, but there is a reward for seeing those mistakes. No one is able to see his own mistakes. You become impartial after being Self-Realized, and that is when
