impartial. It is beyond the scriptures. All the four Vedas say, 'this is not that'. It is the Gnani Purush that says, this is that! The Gnani Purush is pure love and he can give you your Self right away.
Love Illuminates The Divinity Of The Self
Compassion is a universal intent that is felt everywhere in this world. It arises out of one's concern for everyone trapped in the world's miseries and how people's miseries can be alleviated.
Questioner: I want to know the relationship between love and compassion.
Dadashri : Love and compassion are different. Compassion means a generalized awareness of suffering of the entire humanity. This is a type of grace. Love is different. Love is the vitamin for the Self. People have taken a lot of vitamins for the body, but they have never taken the vitamin for the Self. When one sees pure love, the vitamin, the inner energy of the Self expresses.
Questioner : Does it not happen naturally Dada? Dadashri : Naturally.
Questioner: So there is nothing left for the other person to do?
Dadashri : Nothing at all. This whole path is natural and spontaneous.
Love For The One Who Throws Stones
Questioner : After the Gnan we experience the flow of love, nothing but love. What is that?
Dadashri : That is real attachment (prashastah raag).
The attachment with which all other attachments of the world disappear, is what the Lord calls prashastah raag. This attachment is the primary cause for final liberation. This attachment does not bind you because there are no worldly intentions in it. The attachment you feel towards a benevolent One is real attachment, and it is this attachment that will break all other attachments.
When you meditate on Dada, the attributes of Dada will manifest within you. You should not have desire for any worldly things. Just desire the continued bliss of the Self. And if someone were to insult you, your love for him should remain unaffected. As long as you stay this way, your work is done.
The Gnani Purush: Love Incarnate
Questioner: Sometimes during sleep, in a state of light sleep, Dada comes to mind and continues to remain there. What is all that?
Dadashri : Yes. That happens. It is because Dada travels throughout the world in a very subtle form. On a gross level I am here, but Dada' in a subtle form roams throughout the world, He watches over everything. He does not bother anyone.
A lot of people have dreams of Dada and sometimes they also converse with Him. Even during the daytime, when they are awake, they talk to Dada. They even write down their conversations and read them to me when they meet me.
Such things continue to happen. There are no miracles in this. This is natural. Any person that has become free from all the veils of ignorance, but has not yet reached the stage of absolute Knowledge, such a person is the manifestation of real love, and in the presence of such a person, everything is possible.
There are some people, who love unselfishly, but they
