What is the meaning of salvation? To attain the state of Pure Soul - that which is natural - that which is innate. However, due to the bondage of karma and lack of knowledge (agyanta), we are unaware of our true state - that which is associated with being natural - being Pure Soul. So how do we attain innateness (sahajta)? Gnani Purush (the enlightened One) knows the solution. And one such Gnani Purush, Dadashri has given us the key to sahajta. He has introduced us to Self Realization. The pure soul is Sahaj in its original form.

Those seeking to lead a spiritual life may naturally become inspired to live in peace and non violence. To learn spiritual practices to develop these values, one may turn to spiritual teachers, to different types of religion, or to different types of yoga. But beginning to cultivate spiritual awareness is not always as simple as it seems - especially in family relationships, in unhealthy relationships, or while dealing with difficult people. Daily interactions such as these may feel like the very definition of conflict!

Pure love is an essential value for one who wants to lead a spiritual life. In the Audio book "Pure Love", Gnani Purush Dada Bhagwan offers a profound definition, and explanation of unconditional love, and describes how pure love grows naturally with spiritual development. Dadashri explains that the knowledge of the Self, and the blossoming of pure love is one of the signs of spiritual awakening.

What is the relationship to society of a man who has insight? What is his action with regard to war and the whole world?

Those seeking to lead a spiritual life inevitably face challenges in their pursuit of spirituality and practice. As spiritual development progresses, facing one’s faults, failures, and unintentional mistakes can become disconcerting - even for the most sincere seeker. One may then ask, "What are the benefits of the different types of religion? From the many religions of the world, which practices will accelerate my spiritual growth and help me learn how to become more spiritual?"
