The speech of desire-free people and the vitarags (the enlightened ones) comes from the heart (hridayadvarak).”

Otherwise, there is no dharmadhyan in this current time cycle. Therefore, whatever prevents artadhyan and raudradhyan is called dharmadhyan.”

In the ‘akram-marg’ (step-less, direct path to Self-realization), ‘We’ (enlightened one, Dadabhagwan) dissolve your ‘doer-ship’. The awareness that ‘I am the doer’ goes away and the understanding of ‘who the doer is’ is given. Therefore, the charging (of karma) stops! What is left now? Only the form of ‘discharge’ is left.”
― Dada Bhagwan, The Science Of Karma
