Memory-Forgetfulness (Gujarati Dadavani June-2000)

Dada Bhagwan

Abstract

Some people in this world are unable to forget things that they want to forget. At the same time some other people are not able to remember things that they want to remember. Despite studying hard, some students are unable to remember; whereas others remember with ease. Some people know all the scriptures by heart whereas some need books even to read out small verses. To forget worldly pains, many people take support of alcohol-drugs while others engage themselves in devotion of God, but mind derives only temporary pleasure from all these. Param Pujya Dada Bhagwan reveals the science behind all these in just one sentence, 'Memory is the result of attachment-abhorrence'. Only when attachment-abhorrence towards worldly things & people decreases, one can forget the world. There are claims of attachment-abhorrence in whatever one recollects. After one gets the knowledge of the Self through Dadashri's Gnan Vidhi Process, one can erase this memory by doing Pratikraman of these accounts of attachment-abhorrence. This issue will guide the reader for climbing the steps towards the state of absolute enlightenment.
