The Science of Karma QUOTES

1 " The path of moksha (ultimate liberation) has to be understood. This study of the self, doing penance, doing chanting is being done by Pudgal (Complex of intake and output; body complex). What is the benefit of that? Any Action done without the main (root) vision being changed, causes karmic bondage. "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

2 " What is this satsang (in Akram) like? Here, there are no such botherations of, 'do this', 'do good', 'do that', 'ask for forgiveness', 'do introspection', 'do chanting', 'do penance'. Here, One does not have to 'do' anything. Here, One just needs to Know and to understand. The right belief of 'I am pure Soul' (Samkit) can be attained only through understanding and Knowledge of the Self (Gnan) arises through Knowing. And the One who has Known and understood, He can have the right Conduct as the Self (samyak Charitra). "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

3 " Changes can be made at the time of planning (charging of new karma), however once those plans [discharging of karma] start taking effect, they cannot be changed, because the world itself has attained the gross state from a subtle one. Meaning it has come into the ‘second stage’. It is not in the ‘first stage’. Changes can be made in the ‘first stage’. "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

4 " One has proceeded according to people’s understanding therefore he is bound (to the worldly life). The one who proceeds according to Gnani’s understanding; he is free. "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

5 " The penance and renunciation that one is told to do is actually under the authority of the non-Self (parsatta). So how can that happen? Penance-renunciation, it is all a resultant effect of the non-Self (parparinaam). It is neither an effect of the Self (Swaparinaam) nor is it independent (swadhin). "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

6 " When a toddler walks, what effort (purusharth) has he done in that? It is actually the prakruti (non-Self complex) that makes him walk! "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

7 " The one with form (sakaar; self) will have to be made formless (nirakaar, Self). The Self is formless. However, opinions about it, reflects the formed state. To have a formed state for that, which is formless, is a contradiction in itself. In order to get rid of the contradiction, one will have to come into the formless intent. ‘We’ (the Gnani) see the formless as formless and we remain in the intent of the formless. To project a shape or form for the Self that is formless is tantamount to chopping off the Self. What a grave mistake is committed! "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

8 " As long as someone gets hurt in the slightest, on your account; its effect will fall upon you. So beware. If the other person keeps “disadjusting” and you keep “adjusting”, then you will cross this worldly life. “Fault is of the sufferer” – if one is able to understand only this much, then not a single clash will remain in the home. "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

9 " The mind and the chitt (internal component of knowledge and vision) are being discharged and the world believes them to be charging. That is the reason they are trying to hold the mind and the chitt still, but that is not possible. "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

10 " In shukladhyan (Internal state that renders the constant awareness of ‘I am pure Soul'), entire world begins to be perceived as faultless. In dharmadhyan (absence of adverse internal state of being that hurts the self and others), despite seeing the other person at fault; one will uphold him as being faultless, that is ‘dhramadhyan’. ‘What is the other person’s fault? He is only an evidentiary instrument. It is due to the effect of my own karmas that I have encountered him! "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

11 " Equanimity is when abhorrence does not arise during the circumstances of abhorrence and attachment does arise during the circumstances of attachment. "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

12 " In whatever work that you do in this world, the work has no value. You will be ‘binding responsibility’ for next life only if there is attachment and abhorrence involved in it. There is no responsibility if the attachment and abhorrence do not occur. "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

13 " This Gnan (Knowledge) of ‘ours’ is this world’s summary of what deeds begets happiness and what deeds brings unhappiness. "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

14 " No one will attain moksha as long as the madness of the world remains. As much madness as there is, there are that many obstacles – as if one is possessed by a ghost. "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

15 " This path of 'Akram' (step-less path to Self-realization) is of a different kind. This is a science (vignan)! Vignan means that which liberates just by knowing it!!! "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

16 " It is considered equanimity when attachment does not arise towards someone who offers flowers and abhorrence does not arise towards someone who is pelting stones. "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

17 " The whole world is indeed trapped by misery. What is the misery about? Due to ignorance of one’s own Real Self (agnanta). Due to ignorance of one’s own Real Self (agnanta), attachment-abhorrence (raag-dwesh) keeps on occuring, which leads to this misery. Only through Gnan [Knowledge of the Real Self] can one prevail in a misery-free state. There is no other solution at all. "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

18 " Like-dislike is a ‘discharge moha’ (illusory attachment that is dissipating and not binding new karma), while attachment-abhorrence is a ‘charge moha’ (illusory attachment that binds new karma). "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

19 " Continue with whatever it is that you have been doing, except for attachment-abhorrence. If ‘we’ stay in our state of Pure Soul, attachment-abhorrence will not occur. "

― Dada Bhagwan , The Science of Karma

20 " Where there is no attachment for the good and abhorrence for the bad is called the state of equanimity. The one without duality is equanimity. In worldly interactions, people identify tolerance as equanimity! "
