[13] Liberation from Artadhyan and Raudradhyan

In thinking about the future, if one experiences fear, then
artadhyan has occurred for sure.
In artadhyan, one continues to worry about himself, ‘What
will happen if this occurs? What will happen if that occurs?’ He
will continue to have fear of this kind.
Raudradhyan Hurts the Self and Others
When you imagine that the other person has hurt you, that
is raudradhyan.
When you have a thought because of another person
(nimit), the thought of harming him… all that is raudradhyan.
Say, for example, a cloth merchant cheats his customers by
stretching the material when he measures it; the moment he thinks
about cheating his customers, he is in raudradhyan.
Questioner: When others are hurt because of us, is that
raudradhyan?
Dadashri: Yes, whether one gets hurt or not. But if you
tell him he is worthless, he is deceitful, he is a thief; that is all
raudradhyan.
Actually, there is no one at fault (doshit) in this world. It
is through our misunderstanding that the other person appears at
fault.
Questioner: I experience raudradhyan. I see mistakes
in others. How does my doing that hurt the other person? If I
see him as the culprit, how does he feel hurt in that? If the
person I see at fault is unaware of it, how is that raudradhyan?
Dadashri: It will have an effect and thus it is called
raudradhyan. Why would he not have an affect? You may think
that he does not know. He will be affected somewhere without
fail. He will not even know.
