(To Niruben) Only the Jains can understand the importance of your brahmacharya—life long vow of celibacy. From what the Jains tell me about you, I deduce that they understand. These Patidars—Patel community of ours has no development in this regard. The brahmacharya—state of celibacy that you have attained can be called very great. That very will lead to purnahuti—completion of the goal of liberation. The pad—state that you have attained is just like mine. The circumstances are very good. Who knows what level of past life merit karma is the reason for this!

Niruben, you have received tremendous protection from this Dada. One decade is over and when another decade passes, then tremendous lokpujya pad—state of public reverence and respect will arise.

One life’s abrahmacharya destroys many a life times to come. This is in combination with Gnan—Self-realization—and therefore is extraordinary. One can live a totally celibate state, despite interacting with the world due to the protection of this Gnan. Otherwise it is not possible. And the world is such that it will not let one remain celibate. Celibacy is possible only in sadhuvesh—life of one who has renounced. But, here it is possible to remain celibate because of the power of the Gnan.
Just to lie around for sexual indulgence and one’s freedom and independence. The web of kids and offspring spoil infinite lifetimes. What can one say of the one who has escaped from this web naturally!
I have observed that the Brahmins of Dakor and other Brahmins look at you with respect. Their samaj—inner understanding is that much elevated. Otherwise this thing is hard to comprehend.
It has been only four years since Niruben has attained this Gnan, and yet she has the ability to make four hundred Jain sadhu maharaj—spiritual teachers— and other elders understand all aspects of this science, because here a cleaner of passions and sculptor (Dada) resides. When one encounters a vadanaar—cleaner and sculptor then all energies become manifest. (April 11, 1973)
Niruben is a very great instrument of salvation of the world. I will never let her separate and stray away from me. I will leave all others but not her. (1975)


I meddle more persistently in the one in whom the potential for salvation of the world is evident. I am persistently tinkering with Niruben because she will some day in my absence change someone’s dhruvakanto—direction in which someone is going from worldly entanglements towards one of liberation.                                                                (October 9, 1972)
By grace of the fully enlightened Lord within, we—the Gnani Purush are giving the energy to Niruben—enlightened Niruben—to liberate two and a half million human beings.                                 (October 7, 1972)
Niru, your doing bhaavna—holding deep inner intent to have the power to liberate the masses of humanity from suffering from all sides in the fire of misery in the world, binds a Tirthankar Gotra—creates a future life of a Tirthankar—the One who liberates millions. Do you want to bind such a gotra—clan?                                (August 16, 1969)
This Niruben is such that she can become a Tirthankar.         (October 13, 1968)

Brahmacharya flourished under the shelter of the Gnani
Charitra—total celibacy through thoughts, speech and acts—has been beautifully maintained by her. This beautiful brahmacharya conduct that she has followed throughout in my presence is a wonder, isn't it? It is not easy to maintain this state. In my presence, I have seen that she has maintained it, very beautifully.
In the four years that she has been immersed in my seva—total service—I have seen that her charitra—conduct in brahmacharya—is of a very high order. She has exactly followed the vrat—vow that I had initiated her in, four years ago. There has never been an error through the medium of thoughts even, isn't it? Not even a thought?
Niruben : No.
Dadashri : And if there has been a thought, then you do pratikraman—Dadashri’s divine method of reversal from aggression through internal recall, apology and resolution never to repeat the error—for it?
Niruben : Yes.
Dadashri : That is needed, for the one who has taken the vrat—vow in my presence. And she had a great need for this charitra.
Questioner : In this matter Dada would take on the responsibility of no one except Niruben.
Dadashri : No, I would not bother with anyone else. On her rests all the load of the satsang. The guarantee—of brahmacharya charitra—is for her only!


Questioner : This is because she has to stay in your company constantly.
Dadashri : We are not to see (the faults) of others. This of Niruben, has become one of the greatest supports. This is because all are saying that Dada is walking through the eyes of Niruben, is making Niruben do all the worldly interaction work. Therefore, people have developed all bhaav—faith—in Niruben. There may be others, who seek the subtle reason, behind all this.
Questioner : Yes, yes Dada. The higher one rises in the public eye, the more they are subject to scrutiny for any inner hollowness and lack of fidelity.
Dadashri : Therefore to prevent people from committing errors I had told them that do not even harbor such thoughts in the mind even. Do not even entertain such negative thoughts, because I am giving a personal guarantee. If you harbor such a thought then the fault will take hold within you. There are countless people in our satsang with countless vikalps—negative connotations—and all kinds of thinking.
Questioner : You have given Gnan to the one who has been just walking on the road (the casual worldly person with hardly any spiritual insight), and the stock—from previous life—is such of these folks.
Dadashri : For her goal she has wagered her entire life in this. She says that her life is not meant for any more mistakes. She has staked her entire life in this cause. If this were not for real, then the entire spirituality in our satsang would be worthless. It would collapse the foundation of our satsang.
The non-contradictory speech of the Gnani
Questioner : When we went there, many had gathered there and there Niruben gave satsang—spiritually uplifting experiential interaction in question and answer sessions.
Dadashri : Is that so?
Questioner : About eight to ten persons had gathered there.
Dadashri : When Niruben comes, even if there are two hundred people gathered, great work will be accomplished.
When Niruben gives upadesh—the spiritual message from a master—she lets it flow from the vantage of the Self—Shuddhatma thayeeney—and that talk lets bliss flow. And that talk is of a different order. It is not from material read from scriptures. If it is from a scripture, we can say, if you do not tell me, its fine, I will read it up. Is there not a difference between a book and Gnan? A book is a book. All the scriptures of the world are after all nothing but a book only. When a Gnani comes, his speech is verily a (living) scripture.                                     (June 11, 1974)
(A foreign lady by the name of Priscilla was visiting Dadashri. Dadashri pointed to Niruben and told her…) She is really Chandanbala (please review the life of Lord Mahavir) at this time in this world. She will remain for years with me. Only one Chandanbala, no other Chandanbala in this world at the age of twenty-eight. You believe in it? Come and do the darshan every year.


Questioner : Yes. (She bows to Niruben).
Dadashri : She has conquered these four anger-pride-deceit and greed egoisms. Would you believe it, all four gone!
These Gnani's (mahatmas of Dadashri) constantly worship the ‘Gnani Purush’ daily. One would attain kalyan—ultimate liberation—if one even took up the dust of their feet to the head—a gesture of reverence. This Niruben has become M.B.B.S.—qualifying degree of a medical doctor. She met me at the age of twenty-four. In the four years that have passed she has understood the entire science. She can easily make a couple of hundred educated mahatmas like you understand this science and that too without any contradictions. The speech may well be of a lower order but even one hours worth of speech that does not evoke any contradictions has such high value! And that too, in her language, not in mine. In the worldly topics there may be controversies but only in that respect. Whereas; this here is an Absolute Science. Is it not a wonder that speech about the Science of Absolutism can flow without any contradictions or divisiveness for a whole hour?
One would need such persons for salvation of the world, isn't it? All these are nimits—instruments. There is no doer in it. All this happens through scientific circumstantial evidences.   (February 11, 1974)
