Spirituality in Speech
firm decision as to how you want your speech and your conduct to be, and this tender will carry forward your decision.
Questioner: Some people's speech is so pleasant that others are captivated by it. What is that?
Dadashri : It happens when a person has internal purity and a lot of punyas (good deeds) and he accepts no money for himself. He devotes his life for the well being of others. Such people are considered to be pure.
Humans should have speech that is attractive, speech that wins over people's minds. Their conduct and their humility should also be as attractive. But today, when people speak, others have to cover their ears!
As speech becomes sweet, it continues to become sweeter, and in the final life, its sweetness becomes incomparable. On the other hand, there are some who, when they speak, sound like a grunting bull! There is this kind of speech and there is also the speech of the Tirthankars!
Therefore we should have purity in every deed and in the process of its dissipation. We should observe the process without attachment or abhorrence. We should let everything dissipate with equanimity. It is not difficult for a person to understand this, but there will be no end to this if he does not.
This is a science. In science one cannot make alterations or change anything. It is based on real principles and it is free from all contradictions. It is applicable to both the worldly and spiritual life. The only thing that it does not apply to is ordinary people at large, because there is a tremendous difference between their language and the language of the Gnani. The Gnani's language is good and without any impediment. Only when the Gnani explains everything methodically, does the puzzle of life become solved.
When this Science of Akram Vignan is revealed to the world, it would benefit people tremendously, because never before has such a science come forth. Nobody has previously ever placed any kind of Gnan in the depths of the worldly life. Nobody has really dealt with the interactions of worldly life before. They have only talked about spirituality. Spirituality has never entered into the worldly life. The two have been kept separate. Here, Akram Vignan has placed spirituality into the very core of worldly life. A completely new scripture has arisen and it is also scientific. It can never be contradicted anywhere. But now, how can this Akram Vignan be revealed to this world? The world would be blessed if it were revealed!
Questioner : That time will come too, right Dada? Dadashri : Yes, it will!
Jai Sat Chit Anand
The person whose mind, speech and conduct do not harm or hurt anyone in the slightest is considered sheelvan (highest of morals; purity) and one cannot have speech that is effective and efficacious and speech that liberates, without becoming a sheelvan.
Moksha is when you are continuously able to listen to your own speech. It is pointless to try and stop speech. Liberation cannot be attained merely through cessation of speech. When a person attempts to do so, he invites and awakens some other shakti (power or energy). All one's energies should be allowed to work on their own. These energies all belong to the relative self, and one should not interfere with them. That is why I say that this speech is a recorded tape that is playing, and I am observing it. This is moksha! To observe this taped record is moksha!!
