will be no disciples. What do you mean by that?
Dadashri: Nobody will be my disciple. There is no spiritual throne here. If this were a throne then we would need a successor. You might try to become the successor as a paternal relative. Only the one who is accepted by the world, will carry on this work. Only the one with absolute humility will be accepted by the world. The one, who becomes the world's disciple, will succeed.
GENERATIONS OF LIVING GNANIS
Questioner: All the people that have come to you here; have come from the Kramic path to Akram path. Each one of them has experienced this Gnan in his own way. Dada, the unique feature of Akram is that we have met the pratyaksh Purush (the One who is present and living). After some time though, the Gnani Purush will not be around. Is that true?
Dadashri: Yes, you are right.
Questioner: Keeping aside the issue of those who have acquired the Akram path through your direct living presence (pratyaksh), what about those who come to this path after you are no longer here? They will not have the opportunity, will

Dadashri: For some time this Akram path will thrive. Questioner: For some time?
Dadashri: Yes, for some time, because there is a group of people that have to be filtered out through this Akram path. Once this is done there will not be anymore qualified people left and so the Akram path will end. This path is only for the chosen few.
Questioner: Yes, for this group of people only. That is why you called it A-kramic path. (13) AFTER ATTAINING SELF

they?
Dadashri: There will be, indeed there will be.
Questioner: Everyone will have the opportunity to meet the pratyaksh Purush?
Dadashri: Yes, they will get it all. This will continue. Questioner: Will it continue like this? Dadashri: It will continue. Do you understand? Questioner: But is there not a need for a pratyaksh
