The Purushartha of Gnan Against Insults (Gujarati)
The entire world runs on karmic accounts. The bitter or sweet unfolding effects in worldly interactions result in circumstances of attachment-abhorrence (raag-dwesh) or respect-insult (maan- upmaan). When occasions of insult arise in life, you are not the one being insulted, are You? The insult is happening of file number one (Chandubhai) and it is the settlement of his past life account, so how does that concern you? You should not have contempt towards the person who has come to free you from karma.A person will be able to become free from the world only when he loves insults as much as he loves respect. So how should you settle files with equanimity? The answer is that you should believe that your account is being settled, the circumstances are subject to vyavasthit (scientific circumstantial evidences), and the other person is flawless (nirdosh). The wonderful understanding of how one can settle the worldly interaction by remaining as the Self (nischaya) during situations of insults, is called the Purushartha of Gnan.
