Autobiograpy Of Gnani Purush A.M.Patel, Dada Bhagwan [free ebook reader for android TXT] 📗

not spared these. The vision of the Gnani as he observes the clouds of pains and pleasures pass by is exclusive, far-reaching and supremely beneficial for all mankind. All ordinary routine events of daily life through which ignorant human beings pass every day, gives one the opportunity to rise spiritually for the higher and common good. But alas it is never used for this purpose. And the Gnani Purush has brought with him this vision to transcend above all these, from birth as evidenced by his words, way before his enlightenment. This vision existent from childhood had the potential to enlighten others. On every occasion of life by filtering the vitarag vision of the enlightened ones, he unfolds the path of enlightenment and liberation for others. Thus in the routine mundane worldly problems similarly experienced by thousands, the ‘Gnani’ discovers something totally new and beneficial.

Event like the one in childhood when faced by the proposition of wearing the traditional kanthi necklace of the ‘initiate’ into Vaishnav sect of followers of devotees of Lord Krishna and the words that flowed from the child’s mouth, ‘the one who enlightens me is my guru, and I would rather remain guruless than adopt a guru who is unworthy’, may raise some eyebrows in this book. Instead of expressing prejudice and preconceived opinions the reader would do well to study the deep message of this vision that came forth in a child, and which blossomed into a vehicle for enlightenment for generations to come.

In this tiny booklet, the experiential words of the Gnani Purush have been presented in a very abridged form. The aim is for the world to recognize the phenomenal expression of the State of the Gnani and then attain that. With that prayer…

Autobiography of Gnani Purush A. M. Patel

November 7, 1908 — January 2, 1988

[1] How and When Did This Supreme Knowledge Manifest?

How Akram Science Manifested Within Me

Questioner : The Gnan that manifested within you, how did you acquire it?

Dadashri : I did not acquire it, it occurred naturally. It arose spontaneously.

Questioner : Did it occur naturally?

Dadashri : Yes, this is but natural.

Questioner : The phenomenon that occurred to you at Surat railway station does not occur to everyone. Did it occur because of your past spiritual endeavors in the kramic path? (Kramic path to self-realization is an arduous path requiring severe discipline and austerities).

Dadashri : Yes, everything I did was only in the Kramic path but the fruit it bore was that of Akram (step-less path of

Self-Realization – requiring no rituals or austerities). However I failed at the level of Keval Gnan (Absolute Omniscience) and that is why this science of Akram arose within me.

The Difference between a Comma And A full Stop

Questioner : First of all I wantto know about Akram Vignan?

Dadashri : The ‘full stop’ of the ego, is Akram Vignan. The ‘comma’ of the ego is the Kramik Gnan path. Akram Vignan is the internal science, which takes you to your eternal bliss. Therefore this is also known as the Science of the Self. The other is the science of the external, the non-Self. It gives transient and temporary happiness. The external science perishes ultimately, whereas the internal science is eternal.

Karmas Destroyed In the Fire Of Gnan

Dadashri : Lord Krishna has said that a Gnani Purush can destroy all one’s bad
