Gadhada III-36: The Most Extraordinary Spiritual Endeavor for Liberation
Summary
- The extraordinary spiritual endeavour for liberation:
- Seeking refuge in the manifest form of God, understanding Him to possess a divine form and that He is the source of all avatārs.
- Offering bhakti while remaining within one’s dharma and keeping the company of one who does the same.
- One encounters a great hindrance by associating with shuksha-Vedāntis.
- 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.
