The One With Bhaav Saiyam ‘Sees’ His Own Faults
Questioner: When will that which is beyond the worldly realm (lokottar) be realized?
Dadashri: That which is beyond the worldly realm (is realized) when one comes into bhaav saiyam; then the real major vows and minor vows arise. After one comes into bhaav saiyam, then one can see one’s own faults, and one gets rid of those faults. One washes the new faults that arise. One keeps washing off all those faults. Without coming into bhaav saiyam, one’s own faults cannot be seen; faults of others are seen. Are other’s faults seen or not? One knows how to do all that, right? How many of your own faults can you see?
Questioner: Yes, I know how to see other’s faults. I know how to see them well, yes.
Dadashri: Therefore, that is indeed called dravya saiyam, and there are no major vows there, there are no minor vows.
Questioner: There are only a few people who see their own faults.
Dadashri: How can one’s own faults be seen? And if someone were to ask, “How many faults do you have?” then one will say, “I have two to three faults, not more.” He will state two to three faults. And then he will say, “I do not have any other faults. This person has a lot.” When one becomes the Seer of (one’s own) faults, then he is ready to become God, he is getting ready. The blissful state (samadhi) of bhaav saiyam, the state of coming into bhaav saiyam has begun.
