Maintaining Samata during Like and Dislike (Eng. Dadavani March-2018)

Absolutely revered Dada Bhagwan reveals the reality of the world that, “There are only two things in this world, the pure Soul and circumstances.” The pure Soul is permanent while circumstances are temporary and are of the non-Self and are entirely dependent on external factors. One becomes engrossed in that which he likes, while in that which he dislikes, he has abhorrence and he continues to suffer; all of these are still weaknesses. If your opinion changes, then equanimity will prevail during that which is liked and disliked. By maintaining awakened awareness, you should bring about equanimity during both kind of circumstances. Gradually you should come to the opinion that, ‘There is happiness only in the pure Soul and not in people or things. All of this are actually karmic accounts.’ In the current compilation, Dadashri is giving mahatmas the guidance for carrying out Purusharth to maintain samata with Gnan during likable and dislikable circumstances.
