APTAVANI 12 of Gnani Purush Dadashri

APTAVANI 12 of Gnani Purush Dadashri For those who have attained the Self in the Gnan Vidhi of Dadashri, the mahatmas on the Akram Path, The Book that lifts the awakened One towards absolute enlightenment, keval Gnan. Edited by: Dr. Niruben Amin First Published in Gujarati: 1999 Web Upload in English: April 2011 Gnani Purush Dadashri performing Vidhi of the absolute Self within. Translators’ Notes: After awakening in the Gnan Vidhi the ‘s’ self becomes the ‘S’ Self. The 1 Self thereafter is eternally separate from the worldly interacting ‘s’ self. The use of ‘S’ and ‘Y’ for You versus you, is therefore appropriately addressed in this and all major works of Gnani Purush Dadashri called Aptavani. The book has been translated from Gujarati and the corresponding pages in Gujarati are mentioned near the headings with ‘Gp..’ The team of translators is deeply grateful for the circumstances that have unfolded that make it possible to present this and other works of the liberating science of Dadashri, easily and directly to the world.

Atmagnani Pujya Dr. Niruben Amin 1999. 4 Aptavani destroys all demerit karma effects Questioner: The world became invisible for two hours while reading Aptavani! Dadashri: Yes, such two hours never arrive. It is a very big thing when the presence in the world, is broken. While reading Aptavani, when the world is forgotten, a whole bunch of demerit (sinful) karma are washed off. In this all demerit karma are burnt to ashes. This is because, in this, while reading, one is not in the world or in moksha; he is in the middle. There is no worldly life in this at all. Therefore, Aptavani is such that it will accomplish the work of liberation. This Aptavani will help people a lot, if it comes in the hands of the people in future! This is because the understanding and vision from all corners is placed in it. There is not a single corner where the understanding remains to be placed. And upto fourteen Aptavanis are yet to come, and they will be something else altogether! 5 Gnani Purush Dadashri and Dada Bhagwan the manifest Absolute Self within Him…Dada Bhagwan Na Aseem Jai Jaikar Ho 6 The One who manifest within Gnani Purush ‘A.M. Patel’ DADA BHAGWAN NA ASEEM JAI JAIKAR HO Editorial The mahatmas of Dadashri, the revered scientist of Akram Vignan (the stepless path to Self-realization), have attained the Self. Now, they are to start the journey to attain absolute Knowledge (Keval Gnan). They have to attain absolute Knowledge while fulfilling their remaining worldly responsibilities (sansaar) and while staying as the Self (nischaya). Dadashri has frequently explained about mahatmas’ puzzles about their worldly interaction, their difficulties in following the Agnas (the five cardinal spiritual instructions given after Self-realization) and about ways in which they can remain in awareness (jagruti – awareness of the Self). His spoken words, in different places, addressing different questioners in various situations, have been recorded in audio format. After transcription of Dadashri's satsang from all the various audio-cassettes; a ‘necklace’ is made from the scattered beads of the Gnani’s wisdom! It will prove to be very effective for mahatmas to progress on the path of ultimate liberation (moksha). While reading, many things are clarified within. We feel as if Dadashri is talking to us directly. The reader should insert his own name in place of Dadashri's conversation with "Chandu". ‘Chandu or Chandulal or Chandubhai’ means the owner of the name, your relative self. In every sentence, one should move from the belief of ‘I am Chandu’, to that of ‘I am 7 Shuddhatma ( pure Soul- pure Self) only’; ‘I am not the doer’; ‘I am only the Knower-Seer (gnata-drashta)’. ‘Besides the Atma - the Soul - all else is ‘not mine’. Everything is simply a discharge, of all that was previously charged. Only the stored baggage (bharelo maal – previously charged karma) is coming out. Under no circumstances are new causes being created in that. What You are ‘seeing’ is only the effect of past life causes. This has been emphatically reiterated. In reading this, a tremendous affirmation takes place within. After Self-realization (Gnan), mahatmas do not have to do anything except to stay in the five Agnas all the time. What have the Tirthankaras said? ‘Agna is religion (dharma) and Agna is penance (tapa).’ No other penance is required thereafter. These five Agnas are only for mahatmas, those who have taken Gnan through the Gnan Vidhi. They are not helpful for other people. The person, who can stay in the five Agnas in their exactness, shall attain a state that is similar to Lord Mahavir’s! He will become ekavatari – one more lifetime before final liberation! Yes, the Five Agnas are to be followed with pragnya (liberating energy of the Self) and not with the intellect (buddhi). Agnas followed with intellect will not set one free from karma! Mahatmas are to study the first and the second half of this Aptvani very minutely. They are not to leave it alone until there is crystal clarity through deep-thinking and inner visualization or through asking questions during live satsang. Deep study is to be done. While reading these words one is profoundly awed and gets a high level understanding about the true nature of the Gnani Purush. While comparing Dadashri’s words with the words of the self-proclaimed enlightened people, or the ‘dry’ (those without the experience of Self-realization) scholars; one realizes the difference between an authentic diamond and a piece of glass! Great praise to this unique Gnani Purush! Reading His experiences gives the meaning to the phrase ‘Never before and never again’! In various places are described Dadashri’s experiences about the ways in which he stays in the awareness (jagruti) of the Self, in pure applied awareness of the Self (shuddha upyoga), in separation state of the Self and 8 in a state of absolute detachment (vitaragata). This will prove to be the beacon for us all in the understanding of the goal and the mistakes in attaining the goal! Then the heart becomes filled with emotions of tremendous gratitude, “Dada, praise be to you! You have given this wonderful Aptavani (speech of the One who libeartes) to people of this era who are unfortunate in every aspect (from the perspective of liberation) and made it extremely easy for them to achieve liberation (moksha)!” Upon reading the words of the perfect experience of the One who has attained the highest level of spiritual knowledge in this era, one gets the freedom from the burden of reading all other confusing literature on spirituality. As soon as ‘Dadashri’s book is in the hands, the arms, legs and the heart start to dance! I cannot help but mention a specific red flag for mahatmas. Dadashri’s speech is on worldly interactions (vyavahar) as well on the Soul-the Self. The limitations of speech are such that two viewpoints cannot be cleared at the same time! Multiple balls can be pocketed with one stroke in a billiards game; this is not the case with speech; only one aspect, one view, can be talked about at one time. Therefore, when there is talk about the Soul, “Only for the purpose of remaining steady in the Soul’, it has been said that no matter what interaction Chandubhai has done, You the Self are pure, you are the pure Soul.
