during such situations?
Dadashri: ‘I am separate from this suffering’; such
affirmation will lighten the pain. And if you say, ‘This is happening
to me,’ then the load will feel heavier.
Questioner: The anxiety he experiences because of pain,
is it with artadhyan or raudradhyan?
Dadashri: It is with artadhyan. It is not a question of
dhyan. If one is in Gnan, then it is the non-Self that suffers the
pain. You have to know who is suffering the pain and maintain
awareness of who You are. Then You have to tell ‘Chandubhai’,
‘Chandubhai, you go ahead and suffer it. Only you have to
suffer it. You have to suffer the effect of your own causes.’ If
You can remain separate in all that, You will benefit from the
separation. Otherwise, if you say, ‘I am suffering a lot,’ then you
will suffer it many fold over.
Questioner: Everything you have said applies to the
mahatmas. But the rest of the people who are suffering, do they
suffer with artadhyan?
Dadashri: There is only artadhyan there; the result is
pain and suffering. Such result of suffering as the self is artadhyan.
Questioner: Then he continues to get irritated with others.
That is raudradhyan, is it not?
Dadashri: Then there is raudradhyan. In this flawless
(nirdosh) world, no one should appear to be a doshit (one at
fault). The world is completely nirdosh. Therefore, whatever
you see is due to the mistake in your own vision.
Questioner: Is vedaniya karma (karma that brings
physical suffering) bound by atichar (transgression of code of
conduct; doing something in excess) or atikraman?
Dadashri: It is bound by atikraman.
