________________ 90 The Flawless Vision The Flawless Vision 91 Questioner: Once I became extremely angry when I called out to my servant and he did not answer me. I knew he was awake and pretended to be asleep. What should I do? Dadashri: Are you able to see your fault after you become angry? Questioner: Dada, it is when you see the fault first that creates the anger, is that not so? Dadashri: Yes that is why you become angry, but when you realized later on that the servant was not at fault, then you were able to see your own mistake, were you not? Questioner: But I do not see it right away. Dadashri: Nevertheless, you did realize even later on that it is you who was at fault and not the servant. If the fault were to lie with the servant, then you would never be able to see that it was your fault in this matter. Questioner: This happens everyday. Anger arises frequently between us. Dadashri: Then you must do pratikraman. But what will be reason for the pratikraman? Why should you repent? Why does the wife behave in this manner towards you? She behaves this way because of the unfolding of your karma. She makes mistakes because of your own karma. Whatever mistakes anyone makes towards you, they are merely instrumental in the unfolding of your own karma. You should continue to repent; there is no need for you to become angry. How can you repent if you cannot see your own faults? You must have the understanding that it is your own karma that is unfolding and that you are the one at fault. If someone were to come and slap me, I would instantly bless him. Why would I do that when he is the one that slaps me? It is because in this world no one is able to do this without a reason. A few years ago I had offered a reward to anyone who would come and slap me. Nobody, even those who desperately needed the money, came forward. They felt that it was better to borrow the money than to earn it by slapping me and face the consequences of their action. The entire world and its functioning is under exact laws. God does not run this world, but nevertheless it still runs under very precise laws. It runs in the presence of God. Whoever causes you any grief, does so because of your own doing. Absolutely no one is at fault in this world. I see each and every living being in this world as faultless. Illusion means to see others at fault. Our spiritual science says that the faults you see in others are actually your own faults. This reaction to a fault is there because of your own fault. The Soul is Vitaraag and so is the prakruti. But whatever faults you see in others, has a reaction as a consequence. That is When The Fault Discharges...Forever. Everyone is faultless. The fact that we see others at fault is the fault of our own. No living entity is at fault in this world. If you can see this, then it is Gnan. But generally people cannot see it this way, can they? Questioner: I do not want to see the other person at fault, but if I do, can that be called a discharge? Dadashri: It is a discharge, discharge that is habituated. When it is not under your control, it is considered habituated. Questioner: How can seeing someone's faults be considered a discharge? Dadashri: It is a discharge when you do not have the intention to see faults. Such a person is not quite following my
