________________ Aptavani-4 107 Dadashri: These words are of the Gnani Purush and they are fresh. Its phases (paryaya) are current and therefore all your phases change as you read it, and bliss (anand) continues to express. Some can even attain samkit (the right vision) in this way. This is because this speech is the speech of the Vitarag. Speech is only worthy if it is without attachment or abhorrence, and not otherwise. The speech of the Lord was without attachment and abhorrence, and its effect is still going on after 2500 years. Therefore, even the speech of the Gnani Purush is effective; it will be for at least two to four generations for sure. For liberation, there is no solution without the speech of a Vitarag. Questioner: I have read both parts of the Aptavani. Nowhere, throughout the entire book, is there any criticism, nor any mention of destroying any person. Dadashri: Self-realized persons do not criticize anyone. It is not in them to destroy or construct anything. Why would you want to destroy and create? Why would you oppose anything? Opposition is a kind of ego. It is considered a ‘mad? ego! Religion is something that has no discordance. Such a religion is like nectar. Discord is poison. Questioner: While I am reading the Aptavani, I can see Dada! Dadashri: Yes... You will see 'Dada'. You will see the “exact' Dada. Whenever you wish, you can see 'Dada' and it is possible to reap the benefit. The one you see in front of you is not ‘Dada.' He is a Patel from the town of Bhadran. Even the one who speaks is not ‘Dada', but a ‘recorded tape' that is speaking. 'Dada' is ‘Dada': within whom sits the Vitarag; the Lord of the fourteen worlds!! He is the one who has manifested within me and whom even I worship. The one who is manifest
