The moment one’s belief becomes ‘I am Chandubhai’; then immediately it gives rise to the worldly life.

To see one at fault when he is without fault is raudradhyan (wrathful contemplation that hurts the self and others).

It is possible to get rid of the faults if one sees his own faults. The path of liberation (moksha) is to see one’s own faults and the worldly life is due to seeing faults of others.

Worrying about not having food to eat today; is called artadhyan (mournful contemplation that hurts the self). And worrying about not having food a year from now is raudradhyan (wrathful contemplation that hurts the self and others).

Good inner intent, higher inner intent, is one’s ‘positive’ effort with which one will go to higher life forms. And wrong inner intent is one’s negative effort, which will take one to the lower life forms. And the real self effort is that which one does after he becomes the Self (Pure Soul) which takes one to moksha.

Having made a firm decision not to slip, if one still slips, it is not a mistake but it is a mistake to slip when one has not even made a firm decision not to.

Despite making a firm decision, if you become weak; then make the decision again and again, but you must never say, ‘I am not able to do this, I am not able to do that’. By saying this, the self is cut into pieces (is harmed).

Firm Decision (Nischaya) is the only self effort (purushartha).

It is called Purusharth (real spiritual effort) if it certainly becomes fruitful!
