2,964 Quotes by Dada Bhagwan

The body is the eater. The eater does not Know and the Knower does not eat. Actions are carried out by another element (partattva) and the Knower is the element of the Self! The one who steals and the one being robbed are both the non-Self (anatma)!

A guru helps one traverse worldly life. The Gnani gives liberation. The Gnani has himself become the real form as the Self (Atmaswaroop) despite having a physical body.

The Self is not [in the form of] Knowledge, it is in the form of Science (Vignan swaroop). This world can be known through Science. As it is, the world cannot be known through Knowledge. 'We' are saying, "All of this is a natural phenomenon!" after having Seen this Science. 'We' are not speaking without any basis.

I am Chandubhai’ is wrong belief (mithya darshan). When it departs and the conviction that ‘I am Pure Soul’ gets established, that is the right belief (samyak darshan)!

The absence of anger-pride-deceit-greed has been referred to as Charitra (Conduct of the Self).

How does this ‘machinery’ function? Is it the Self that runs it? No. The Self only gives light; through which this ‘machinery’ gets charged and functions.

Through steadiness in the Self (sthirata), Conduct as the Self (Charitra) manifests and through awakened awareness (jagruti), the level of understanding (Darshan) rises higher!

To whatever level the awakened awareness has reached, that is how close One is to the Self (Atma). The closer one reaches, that much more the light, that much more the illumination.

The worldly life is created through wrong understanding and is dissolved through understanding. The Gnani Purush (Enlightened One) gives all types of perceptions so that there is no need to read scriptures.
