Life Without Conflict
Questioner : So how can we distance ourselves from
those seeds?
Dadashri : As you gradually begin to settle matters with
equanimity, you will keep those seeds at bay. If the seed was
very heavy to begin with, it will take some time and you have
to be patient. No one can take anything away from you. As
long as you have clothes to wear and two meals a day, what
more do you need?
Even if they lock you up in your room before they leave,
all you have to concern yourself with is whether you get two
meals a day or not. There is no problem if they lock you up in
your room. You should just go to sleep. You had created such
karma of revenge in your past life, which is why in this life they
lock you up before they leave. It is nothing but revenge,
bound in a state of ignorance. If there is any kind of
understanding or rationale to it, we can try to solve the
problem. However, when you cannot make any sense of it, how
are you to resolve the matter? Therefore, you must let go in
such matters.
Gnan is Freedom from All Conflicts
Now you have to break free from all revenge, so come
to me and take knowledge of self-realization, then you will be
set free. You have to become free from all revenge in this very
life and I will show you the way. Why do people seek death
when they are fed up with life? It is because they do cannot
deal with this kind of stress. Surely, you will have to understand
everything. How long can you continue living under so much
pressure? The life of human beings today has become like that
of insects, they are in perpetual torment. Why should there be
any torment after one is born as a human? Is such a state
becoming for the one who is the lord of the fourteen universes?
