Aptavani 12 Volume II: Gnani Purush Dadashri

Aptavani means the words of the One who evokes absolute trust and faith within the reader or listener. Such a person is called a Gnani Purush. The tewlveth Aptavani of Gnani Purush Dadashri is in two volumes. Aptavani 12 equips those who have attained the Self through Akram Vignan, to rise towards absolute Self.

Gnani is the One who has known, is in the experience of, the eternal Self. Purush means the Self. Akram Vignan means that which is attained without doing anything, and the science behind this. A gentleman by the name of Ambalal M. Patel became a Gnani Purush in June 1958. This happened spontaneously within him.

The Gnan Vidhi of the Gnani Purush separates the Self from the self. The reader is requested to allow for the use of capital letters in the book, which have been used frequently for ease of understanding the message of the Gnani Purush. The small ‘s’ is the self or the worldly interacting self, where the reader has to introduce one’s own worldly name. The ‘S’ is used to denote the awakened Self after the Gnan Vidhi or the absolute Self. Similarly, the small ‘y’ is used for the worldly self, and the ‘Y’ for ‘You’ is for the awakened One. The small ‘v’ is for the vision through the worldly eyes or the physical eyes whereas the ‘V’ is for the Vision of the awakened One as the Self.

This second volume of Aptavani 12 is a constant companion for the awakened Ones of Akram Vignan called Mahatmas. It provides a deep understanding of the importance of the Agnas of the Gnani Purush and first 200 pages places the mahatma in direct satsang with the Gnani Purush with reference to these Agnas. Agna is the special inner directive given by the Gnani Purush to the One who has awakened into the realm of real freedom in life.

More advanced level Satsang is available in this volume, as the next 230 pages provide the Mahatma with an inner vision of that which unfolds in front of him, after the Gnan Vidhi. This includes major topics like karma stock that is discharging, deeper insights into charge and discharge of karma, cause and effect, and the exact keys to remain separate from it all. Anger, inner penance, knowing the sufferer, and the nature of pleasures versus bliss of the Self are described within the experience of the Mahatma. Then there is the importance of Satsang and the fearless state of the Self in this book which represents the direct Presence of the Gnani Purush for the reader.
