01c. 1948 ADCircumstances will continue to change. They will not adjust to you; you will have to adjust to them. Circumstances are without inner-intent and you are with inner-intent. To make the circumstances favorable is our job. Unfavorable circumstances are indeed favorable. One feels exhausted going up the stairs, and yet why does he climb them? There is the inner-intent that he will be able to go up; he will be able to take advantage of what is up there; that is why!Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
02c. 1948 ADWhat is human beauty based on? It is based on how much egoism one has. Gnani Purush (the enlightened one) is without egoism so his beauty is beyond words!Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
03c. 1948 ADThings get ruined the moment you say, ‘What will become of me? It means that you have no regard for the Soul. The Soul within has infinite energy, why not ask the Soul for strength [power]?Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
04c. 1948 ADThere is ‘Soul' even in other living beings. ‘Lion’, or ‘deer’, is the ego, but within them is the Soul. Therefore, if you take into consideration the type of ego of every living being and interact accordingly, your work will get done. A lion cannot be provoked but if you provoke a dog, it will run away.Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
05c. 1948 ADThe Soul that sits within is ready to give everything, but not even for a moment has one had the faith 'I won't ever have any problems'. If this faith is ever established, there will be no problems. All this is like the priest saying, 'God is asleep'. Would God ever sleep? But then one loses all confidence. God is constantly aware and resides within. It is possible to attain whatever energies you want by asking for them.Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
06c. 1948 ADLiving for the Self [the Soul] is merit karma (you bind merit karma) and living for the worldly life is nothing but demerit karma (you bind demerit karma).Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
07c. 1948 ADProfit is vitamin of the body and loss is vitamin of the Soul [The Self]. So where is a loss anywhere?Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
08c. 1948 ADIf your instigations stop, then there will not be anyone to instigate you. All these are indeed the results of your own [past] instigations. 'You' are a King of the whole universe. 'You' do not indeed have anyone above you (as a boss, upari). 'You', yourself are the Parmatma (absolute supreme Soul).Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
09c. 1948 ADThe human life is the only one in which one can experience the Soul [One’ own Real Self]. There is no other life form, not even that of the celestial beings that can attain the experience of the Self [Self Realization].Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
10c. 1948 ADKrupa (divine grace) means ‘every time sincere’. Without becoming suitable for naimitik krupa (apparent grace), one cannot attain the nischay (Realization that I am Pure Soul). Even in the Kramic (step by step) path, there is naimitk krupa. ‘We’ shower down special grace. ‘Our’ grace descends upon one due to ultimate humility. Only thing required is ‘complete sincerity’.Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
11c. 1948 ADIn the worldly life, due to maadakta (intoxication of the ego of ‘I am Chandubhai’), one has completely lost awareness of everything about one’s self. Everything in the worldly life is nothing but intoxication. The food is intoxicating, the senses are intoxicating. [Therefore] Go to the one, who is without mada (pride), the one who has destroyed all intoxication. There in his proximity, you will realize that, ‘wow! The intoxication of the ego is something that can go down!’ Then ‘our’ awareness will manifest. You, the Self are indeed the absolute supreme soul (Parmatma)!Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
12c. 1948 ADThe energy of the Soul (Atma) is such that it will give you all the solution for how to behave every time in any situation. And what is more, you will not forget it, after the Self [Soul] has been realized.Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
13c. 1948 ADIf at all the energies of the Soul (Atmashakti) gets wasted, it is due to conflicts. Endless energy is lost due to conflicts! Even with slightest collision (conflict) it is all over! If we maintain equanimity with awareness and do not conflict with the other person, then work will go on.Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
14c. 1948 ADAll the energy is destroyed due to conflict. That is why the infinite energy of the soul does not manifest (is not seen). If the slightest negative intent occurs, or the eye raises (on someone), it is conflict. What happens if you collide with a wall? You will crack your head. In the absence of conflict alone, man could go to moksha. If one learns only this: ‘I do not want to get into conflict with anyone’, he will go directly to moksha. Then no guru or anyone else would be needed in between.Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
15c. 1948 ADAnyone who wants a Prakruti (relative self) that brings worldly benefits, they should worship Mataji,the goddess mother. And those who want Moksha [ultimate liberation] should worship the Soul [Real Self]. Those who want both should worship both.Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
16c. 1948 ADImaginary (thinking) leads to bliss of the mind and the true (real thinking) leads to bliss of the Self (Soul).Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
17c. 1948 ADAll the (sickness and) diseases of the worldly life disappear with the innate bliss of the Soul, the Self. Grief gives rise to the diseases.Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
18c. 1948 ADNothing worldly will ever become the Self (the Soul). The Self [the Soul] will never become worldly. Both are separate things.Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
19c. 1948 ADIf a person were to get stuck in attachment induced entrancement for any worldly thing for just one hour, then it will last for a hundred years! Because of pleasure resulting effects and intents of engrossment, an indulging bad habit will last one day of Brahma (many many years), therefore it is not worth focusing our awareness anywhere (other than our true self, pure soul).Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
20c. 1948 ADThere are two types of egoism: one is living and other one is lifeless. As long as the living egoism is there, one can never attain the awareness of the Self (Atma).Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
21c. 1948 ADWith egoism at the center, the awareness of all worldly things can be set beautifully. The awareness of ‘I am Pure Soul’ can never setup with ego being at the center.Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
22c. 1948 ADIf egoism is there, the benefit of the Self cannot be obtained and if the Self is there, the benefit of egoism cannot be obtained.Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
23c. 1948 ADReligion of the Self [Soul] is that where no difficulty or trouble arises for anyone or any living being of ‘our’ own accord.Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
24c. 1948 ADThe Knower of ‘taste’ is the Soul. The enjoyer of 'taste' is not the Soul.Dada Bhagwan / quote ↗
