What keeps a person bound in this world? Why does one have to suffer miseries? How does one achieve peace? How can one achieve liberation? One is bound by one’s own mistakes and not by anyone; not even one’s own family. People are not even bound by material wealth. The only thing that binds one is one’s own blunders and mistakes. The ignorance of one’s Real Self is the root cause of all mistakes and as a result one continues to make endless mistakes. These mistakes range from the most obvious (sthool) to the subtlest most (sookshmatam). It is this ignorance that flaws one’s perception, leading one to see faults in others, creating attachment, (raag) and abhorrence (dwesh). And consequently one continues to bind karma. One’s vision becomes flawless when one receives the knowledge of one’s Real Self and it is the new altered vision that makes one regard others without faults. When this stage occurs, one no longer experiences raag and dwesh; one becomes free from the shackles of karma and becomes Vitrag. What is the nature of mistakes?

The fundamental mistake is one’s ignorance of one’s Real Self. Then comes the mistake in one’s belief that one is correct and not at fault and that all others are incorrect and at fault. One continues to make such mistakes even to the point that one attacks the very person instrumental in helping one discharge one’s own past karma.

The aim behind the compilation of this article is primarily the elucidation of the explanation given by Dada for the reader so that he may cease to see faults in others and begin to see his own. Param Pujya Dadashri reiterated that he could see thousands of evidences, which sustains his awareness of the world being nirdosh. Which evidence did he see in his Gnan? The reader will come across these one by one in this article. If the reader were to study these in minute details, he or she would acquire each and every facet of the vision, which would result in him seeing the world as nirdosh, because the speech of the person who has himself acquired nirdosh vision, will without fail give the reader that very same vision. The worldly life survives as long as one continues to see faults in others. It diminishes at the point where one ceases to see faults in others. One oneself becomes completely faultless. How can one achieve this state? It is achieved when one sees one’s own faults and not others. Here, one is presented with a subtle understanding about the nature of such faults. Param Pujya Dadashri’s art of uncovering the very miniscule facets of flawed vision and replacing it with flawless vision will be invaluable to you dear reader in your daily life. It is the compilers requests that if any mistakes, including hurtful ones, that appear in this compilation of the Dadashree’s speech which came forth in accordance with the nimit (questioner), time, place and circumstances, that the reader be forgiving towards such mistakes and maintain flawless vision. By doing this, the reader will embark on the endeavor towards the final path of liberation through the acquisition of flawless vision.
