Religion is that which becomes the religion and gives results. When can we say it is this way? It is when it helps when someone insults you. It will not let you be affected by it.
Param Pujya Dada BhagwanIf you do pratikraman of a tiger, then even the tiger will do as you ask it to. There is no difference between a tiger and a human being. The difference is in your vibrations! That is why he gets affected.
Param Pujya Dada BhagwanWhat is saiyam? It is a state in which One remains unaffected by the effects of both, upsarga (externally induced suffering) and parishaha (internally induced affliction). And if one were to get affected, then One would simply continue to Know the effect but would not suffer (vedey) the effect. And even if he were to suffer the effect, He would still simply Know it; that is known as saiyam.
Param Pujya Dada BhagwanWhat does a healthy mind mean? It is a mind that never faces any difficulty at all. Whether you are served bland food or sour food, the mind does not get affected! A diseased mind means if the ‘disease of sourness’ has infiltrated within, then one has a demand for sour food only!
Param Pujya Dada BhagwanThe Self is undoubtedly the embodiment of Knowledge (Gnan swaroop), it is nothing else besides that. The light emitted by this lamp is inanimate (jada), but if you were to cut it, would it get cut? The light (prakash) of the Self is something else entirely! Even if you were to fire up a furnace, it would not touch the Knowledge (Gnan), It [the Self] is that subtle! The blaze of the fire is gross in comparison to the Self. The Self is so subtle that it does not get affected by this at all, and that indeed is the absolute Self (Parmatma)!
Param Pujya Dada BhagwanThe moment a solution is arrived at for one's own egoism, a solution pertaining to the other person will automatically come about! But as long as one’s own egoism exists, as a rule, the other person will keep getting affected. That egoism must definitely dissolve.
Param Pujya Dada BhagwanOne is considered to have Known the Self when He is not affected by a single misery of worldly life.
Param Pujya Dada BhagwanThe objects of consumption (bhog) that we remember result in being consumed repeatedly (upbhog). The objects of consumption that we do not remember do not affect us; the state of being absolutely unaffected (nirlep bhaav) remains.
