The criterion of experience of the Self (Gujarati)
If we look with the spiritual vision, then there are only two things: the Self (Atma) and the circumstance (saiyog) and both are separate from each other. So in fact, one is a pure Soul (shuddha Atma) and the body is made up of jada (inanimate) parmanus (indivisible particle of an atom), so who is having that effect? It is the ego (ahamkar) that feels the effect. Heavy falling rain does not affect you, if you stay in the home, no matter how much is raining outside. In the same manner, if one remains still in one’s own Self with the Gnan that, ‘I am separate from the one who feels the effects’, then one can know the effects and remain free from the results of effects and then be in freedom.
