The Unique Effects of Space!

Dadashri: Pacifying, and moreover what type of pacification?

Questioner: Happiness, filled with happiness.

Questioner: The relationship that has formed between mahatmas and the Amin family [Niruma’s family], what are the causes behind that? Must there be some karmic account between us from the past life?

Dadashri: It is a karmic account (hisaab).

Questioner: Or is it considered a circumstance (saiyog)?

Dadashri: The fact is that one keeps coming across those with whom one has a karmic account. So if you happen to meet a dog ten times in a day, then you should realize that you have some acquaintance with it. And every time, the moment you enter a room, if you happen to see a lizard, if you keep feeling revulsion, then you should know that it is your karmic account. Why do you keep coming across it over and over again? Moreover, you happen to see the lizard as soon as you enter, and revulsion arises. So without a karmic account, no one can cause revulsion to arise within you, and without a karmic account, no one can attract you. The fact that someone attracts you, that too is a karmic account. The fact that revulsion arises is also a karmic account.

Questioner: We should just ‘set fire’ to the karmic account, then that will be the end of it.

Dadashri: Yes, ‘we’ have indeed ‘set fire’ to the karmic account, that is indeed why this much has been cleared.

Questioner: But why don’t You spray more ‘acid’ on it?

Dadashri: Yes, ‘we’ will spray more on it.

Questioner: And can forgiveness be sought or not for the connection with a location? Forgiveness cannot be sought from anything that is non-living, can it? Can forgiveness be sought only from a living person?

Dadashri: In reality, it is you who have to become wise [come into the awareness of ‘I am pure Soul’]. You should maintain in your belief that the place is definitely good. Fundamentally, it was because of your own fault that the place turned out to be bad. A place cannot be bad, can it! If you are not straightforward, then the place will appear to be bad.

Questioner: I did not understand that, Dada.

Dadashri: Actually, it is not as if a place is good or bad. The only thing is that when [an ignorant] one who is the sufferer or enjoyer goes there, if his intents are negative, then the place will give that person the corresponding effect. The place itself is not like that. If it were to be bad, then wouldn’t it affect the Gnani Purush wherever He goes? But the answer is no.

On the contrary, everything is certainly detached (vitaraag), the place and everything! This [the one with the ego] is the only one who has attachment and abhorrence (raag-dwesh). Yet, wherever he goes, he feels that the other evidence is engaging in attachment and abhorrence.

Questioner: So then is there any system to improve that kshetra or the time, or by simply setting that into practice… not just for us alone, but so that it [the kshetra or the time] improves for everyone…

Dadashri: There is no longer any need for You to improve it. This is because for You, it is discharge, isn’t it! For the other people in the world, they certainly have to improve that [intent]. As soon as their intent changes, all the other four will improve. Everything improves through the intent. The moment one changes his intent, everything improves.

Say, one has the intent to hit someone, such as, ‘He
