Self Realization: Gnani Purush Dadashri
()
About this ebook
Gnani Purush means the One who has awakened and experienced the Self, and is able to convey and make others experience the Self too. Gnani Purush Dadashri became enlightened in 1958, and in 1962 he began making those who asked for it; aware and experience the Self too. He was able to accomplish this in just one hour. This process of direct awakening to the Self--separating internally from the self has now become famous as the Gnan Vidhi of Dadashri.
Human beings of our world suffer from mental, physical and invited pain because they do not know who they really are. Upon realizing the Self, all ignorance and ignorance related pains leave. Self knowledge is light. In light there is no darkness or ignorance. With the light of the Self, one can become free, despite being in the midst of all the worldly interactions that may bring stress, turmoil or discomfort.
This book introduces the seeker of freedom from worldly pains to the direct easy path to the Self called Akram Vignan. Akram means without any attempts to do anything, without the arduous methods of traditional practices of self enquiry, fasting, penance, chanting, meditation etc. It is a direct step less path to Self-realization.

Preface
Self-realization is easier than you may have ever imagined. It is as simple as coming home. It takes effort to leave the home, you have to plan, prepare, move, arrive, find temporary resting places, meet others, look for food, connect with friends and others for your business, and then return home. In this venturing outside your home, you are at the mercy of external forces. At home you have a sense of safety and control. At the end of all your outward bound efforts, when you return home, you do not have to do anything.
Likewise, when you are ready to come home to the Self within you, you do not have to do anything. If it requires for you to do anything, then know that you are not on the path of liberation. If you have to meditate, enquire, follow instructions and perform rituals, give up anything, avoid anything, then know that you are still searching and therefore going away from your home, rather than coming home.
Self-realization means to experience the nature of the Self and to know and then experience your realm and role in this body. Right now, you only know the realm and the role of -----------, fill in your own name. The name is simply a means of identifying this body. The enlightened Ones call this ignorance. It is the same as being asleep in this worldly life. Your entire life passes in this darkness of ignorance, if you do not come to know who you really are within this body complex of thoughts, speech and actions.
This is not to negate anything that you may have been doing to help humanity and others. That is worthwhile, but it will not liberate you. If you run around day and night helping others, you may forget your sorrows, but you will not be free from the passions and enemies that are alive within you: Your need to be validated and recognized, your pride and sense of what is right, your anger which arises when someone confronts or obstructs your way of doing things, your sanctimonious flavors , your smugness that repels others, your ego that erupts at the slightest provocation, your fixed opinions about others, your political views, you subtle greed, your subtle deception that sweetens your greed and does not let you see it all as it is, your sense of kindness for others and the impotent anger at the injustices in the world. These are the ones that have bound you. No one else. Who are you? What do you really want? Do you know of a way by which you can really make a difference? Has it worked so far?
Now there are really 2 within you. There is the one who believes, 'I am thinking, these are my thoughts, this is my hand, these are my feelings, this is my idea, this is my belief, this is my life, this is my desire, this is my anger, this is my experience..." This is the one whom the world identifies as, 'John, Mary, George or Hillary or your worldly name.'
Then there is the other one within. The real you. The one who is the knower-observer of the one saying 'These aremy feelings, This is my wristwatch, this is my computer, she is my wife, he is my husband.' No one, including you, know about this one. Intellectual perception and ideation is not enough.
The one who says, thinks or feels, 'This is my watch,' is indeed separate from the object. Likewise, feelings and thoughts come and go. Ideas, visions, scenes, experiences in life come and go. Therein within , and common to all these is the one who is the constant observer and knower, the 'I". This 'I' is eternal. This 'I' has gone through infinite experiences in infinite lives and has arrived here and is now aware of the one reading these words, or feels that, 'I am reading these words.'
What is the difference? Is there a difference between , this 'I' and 'my'? What is the difference between 'I am Hillary' versus, 'My name is Hillary'? You can instantly visualize your first day at school. You can see who led you to the school. The face of your teacher. The smell and feel of the classroom. The day of your wedding. The guests present. Who is the one who has been present and knower of all that, even now so much later? That is the 'I'. That I was, is and will always be there, regardless of what happens to these thoughts, words, actions of this body that is in front of this computer. That 'I' is eternal. That 'I' is who you really are. That 'I' is God. That 'i' is the one present in all living beings. That 'I' is the Self. That 'I' is Self. And the other 'i' is the self, the one whom you know, and the world knows as John or Mary.
To know and experience the 'I' in its pristine, exclusive, pure and total realm with all its attributes is Self-realization. This is now available and possible for you. It is awaiting you. There is the one within you that is yearning to come home. If this was not the case you would not be reading these words. You have approached this door to the eternal many times before, in this or past lives. Then, either you walked away from it, or you found it closed.
Now the time has come. You have arrived, and the door is open. The inner intent is ready. The willingness is there. The time has come to be face to face with your ultimate
