________________ Shri Mahavir Jain Aradhana Kendra www.kobatirth.org Acharya Shri Kailassagarsuri Gyanmandir heartfelt devotion you will attain your objective. You will attain spiritual progress but you lack faith, trust and plainness. DHARMA FOR LEISURE : Dharma should not be a matter of exhibition. it should not be carried out for show. Dharma is related to internal purity. It must bring us Moksha. It must help us to achieve spiritual elevation. Mere observance without internal purity is of no use. Dharma bestows upon us peace and felicity. It frees us from agitations and anguish. If we carry out Dharma properly, it satisfies our spiritual aspirations. It makes us worthy of Moksha. Great Rishis and Munis renounced the samsar. Why did they do so? Why did Shri Ram have to go to the forests? Mahaveer renounced his Kingdom. One cannot attain Sidhi unless one has experienced the fruits of one's Karmas. The fruits of Karmas have to be experienced to attain perfection. Karmas are gathered by the soul in its state of ignorance and the destruction of Karmas is called Karmanirjara. The soul cannot become pure unless the Karmas are burnt away in the fires of Tapas. This is the only plane on which we can proceed towards Moksha. Dharma must help us to achieve spiritual elevation ; otherwise, it is not useful. You should not think that you are doing everything, but you should always contemplate on the commands of the Paramatma; and you must assimilate them. Truth needs no advertisement. Gold is precious and can be sold at once anywhere at anytime. The words of Vitarag are true. They will remain permanent. 168 For Private And Personal Use Only
