Natural State Of The Self: Sahaj Atma Swaroop : The Gnani (Gujarati)
In this era, in 1958, Akram Vignan (the step-less scientific path of Self-realization) manifested within Shri Ambalal M. Patel. This made him a Gnani Purush and he came to be known to the world as Dadashri. From the moment of manifestation of the Gnan, he has remained as the Self, separate from the body, and this separation is constant. The body attained its naturalness, and He remains as the natural Self. Even while conducting worldly duties in his business he remains free from any attachment and abhorrence within. At home in his interactions, there is not an iota of attachment or acquisitiveness. It is very difficult for ordinary human beings to recognize such a One who moves about in this worldly life and whose last trace of egoism (potapanu) has vanished. Only the rare seeker can recognize Him. Param Pujya (the absolutely revered) Dadashri himself gives the description of the status of the Gnani Purush. People would ask different kinds of questions and his speech would flow spontaneously with the solutions.
