________________ 158 Letter 24 without a body ? Such people have not understood the independent existence of each substance. They do not know the nature of Jeev Tattva and Ajeev Tattva. Not only that, but despite worshipping Siddha Bhagwan for number of years they don't have the least knowledge that even Siddha Bhagwan are Jeev and are bodyless. And similarly I am also a Jeev and the body is Pudgal and it is totally different from me. To believe, that by observing fasts I feel very light in the body, 'by · chanting Namokar Mantra my lungs have certain benefits' and chanting other Mantras some other parts of my body are benefitted, those Mantras are great because they are beneficial to the body' are fallacious beliefs or Vipanita manyata fauitar TRIA. All these fallacies show that Jeev still has identity and attachments towards his body. To believe that we can get the activity of Pooja and observance of penance done by this body is also a grave mistake. Because body is a separate substance other than me and to consider one self to be the doer of anything of such Paradravya is to increase Mithyatva. Once we start gossiping about the ghost stories then one story leads to another story. And there is no end to these stories. Similarly the fallacies about these Tattvas are endless. And one should leave aside the usual stance taken by many a people that these foolish beliefs are held by others and not me. Instead start introspecting and try to find out if I have any of these or such misconceptions ! Had I not believed in many such misconceptions, I would have attained Samyak Darshan long ago, and I would have been enjoying total Bliss by attaining Siddha status. But don't worry. To realise one's own mistake and to know " what I do not know", is the first step towards the path of wisdom. Today we have talked about only Ajeeva Tattva and we knew about Dnyeya Tattva only. Rest of the discussions will follow in my next letter. With love. Your Mom. ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ Oh Jeev ! Try to understand Tattva Dnyan, listen and get a awakened. Life is precious and may end within no time, therefore don't waste it. If you will not gain Samyak Darshan in a this present Bhav, it is most difficult to gain human phase again in distant future. - Pt. Daulatramji Chhahadhala ! 母母母母母母母智 ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆ ☆
