Vachanamrut Essence

Gadhadā III-36

1. The extraordinary spiritual endeavour for liberation:

1. Seeking refuge in the manifest form of God, understanding Him to possess a divine form and that He is the source of all avatārs.
2. Offering bhakti while remaining within one’s dharma and keeping the company of one who does the same.

2. One encounters a great hindrance by associating with shuksha-Vedāntis.
3. Without the upāsanā of God, there is no possibility of having the darshan of the ātmā or Brahma through nirbij [‘seedless’ – without the association of God] Sānkhya and Yoga.
