What is the meaning of salvation? To attain the state of Pure Soul – that which is natural – that which is innate. However, due to karma bondage 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, Dada Bhagwan has given us the key to sahajta. He has introduced us to Self-realization. The Pure Soul is sahaj in its original form. People become emotional because they become one with the mind, speech and action. Keeping it separate and remaining the Knower and the Seer of it will take you towards sahajta. Once a person takes Gnan (through Gnan Vidhi), his Pure Soul (which is and will always be innate) awakens. Then, for the mind-intellect-ego-body to achieve its innate state, Pujya Dadashri has given 5 Agnas. In the presented book, Pujya Dadashri has given the meaning of sahajta, the reasons for disturbance in the state of sahajta, how to attain sahajta – by being an ‘observer’ and the science to all of these.
