Quote
There is a need for the ‘relative religion’. It is needed for the purpose of [spiritual] development, until the “Real” [religion of the Self] is attained. [Until then] The intellect increases as one gets beaten and bashed around (suffers), and as the intellect increases, the inner burning and suffering increases. When that suffering becomes intolerable, one looks for moksha (ultimate liberation).

Through what has one seen this (AKRAM) Science (stepless path to liberation)? Through pragna shakti (energy and power of the Pure Soul). Knowledge, seen through buddhi (intellect), is helpful in worldly life, but ‘here’ (in the path of Akram science), we will need pure Gnan (Pure Knowledge without the touch of Intellect).

Dehadhyas (the belief that ‘I am the body’) does not leave without [the grace of] the Gnani Purush (the Self-realized One, who can help others realize the Self). The Gnani Purush is vitaraag (one who is free from all attachment). He constantly remains in Swa-parinati (the natural state of the Self). The Gnani Purush does not remain [engrossed] in the body, mind, intellect or ego. That is why only the Gnani Purush can free us from our belief that 'I am the body.
