Vachanamrut Essence

Ashlāli

1. If there is any incompleteness in understanding God’s form, these deficiencies will remain:

1. One cannot experience the true bliss of God.
2. One cannot become an ekāntik bhakta.
3. One cannot attain Akshardhām.

2. The flaw that remains in the understanding of the creators of the cosmos like Brahmā, etc.:

1. They consider the strength of their own actions but not the strength of one’s refuge in God to be instrumental in their liberation.
2. They do not realise that becoming aksharrup and serving Purushottam is in itself liberation.
3. They believe the avatārs of God to be a part of God.
4. At the time of a previous death, they were curious as to how the brahmānds are created.

3. Only when one realises true gnān by profoundly associating with the Ekāntik Bhakta of God does one become brahmarup and attain the abode of God.
4. Characteristics of the three types of devotees:

1. He who worships God with the intention of earning powers to create the world is known as ‘aishvaryārthi.’
2. He who worships God only to experience the ātmā is known as a ‘kaivalyārthi.’
3. He who has a constant and singular resolve for the service of the manifest form of God is known as a ‘bhagwat-nishtārthi.’
