Note about this translation
Pujya Shri Ambalal M. Patel, Gnani Purush, also commonly known as Dadashri or Dada, always used to say that it is not possible to exactly translate his satsang about the Science of Self-Realization and the art of worldly interaction into English. Some of the depth of meaning would be lost. He stressed the importance of learning Gujarati to precisely understand all his teachings.
TRI MANTRA
Dadashri did however grant his blessings to convey his teachings to the world through translations in English and other languages.
Namo Arihantanam
Namo Siddhanam Namo Aayariyanam
Namo Uvazzayanam Namo Lo Ye Savva Saahunam
Eso Pancha Namukkaro
Savva Pavappanashano Mangalanam Cha Savvesim
Padhamam Havai Mangalam Aum Namo Bhagavate Vasudevaya
Aum Namah Shivaaya
This is a humble attempt to present to the world the essence of the teachings of Dadashri, the Gnani Purush. A lot of care has been taken to preserve the tone and message of the satsang. This is not a literal translation of his words. Many people have worked diligently for this work and we thank them all.
Jai Sat Chit Anand.
This is an elementary introduction to the vast treasure of his teachings. Please note that any errors encountered in the translation are entirely those of the translators.
Note to the Reader In order to make a distinction between the real and the relative, capital letters have been utilized for the words Self. You, Real and that to refer to the absolute state of the Soul - the Real I.
