He sees the Brahma all over and is blissfully unaware of the Maya.<br />

He lives on by killing the death itself as he has conquered the desires and the lusts. He does live<br />

amongst all the people but is totally different from them within. We can also get Mukti if we<br />

worship him.<br />

The Sadhak who follows the orders of the Guru should always act<br />

according to the wisdom of what is Atman and what isn’t. Shree Samarth says that the Sadhak<br />

should follow and talk about the pure lack of duality which will fetch them the bliss achieved by<br />

the Guru. In this way such a Sadhak who totally surrenders and submits himself to the Guru<br />

becomes a Saint himself capable of advising others. This is the greatness of the companionship of<br />

the Saints. Rest on the worship of the Guru, be wise about the Atman and be pure in all your<br />

dealings and I guarantee that you will achieve the Brahma. The condition is that your worship and<br />

submission to the Guru should be complete and total. The Guru is the only one whose love is far<br />

more superior to even that of the mother and he takes care of you at all the times. He takes you<br />

through all the difficulties encountered on the path of not only the family life but the spiritual life<br />

also. He is capable of metamorphosing you and enriching you with the ultimate knowledge and<br />

Moksha. There is no other way of getting it without the Guru. After telling these seventy Samasas<br />

Shree Samarth had felt that this was enough but for our benefit he continued with the Dasbodha.<br />

<strong>THE</strong> EIGHTH DASHAK – MAYODBHAV<br />

(<strong>THE</strong> ORIGIN OF <strong>THE</strong> MAYA – <strong>THE</strong> MO<strong>THE</strong>R OF ALL <strong>THE</strong> ILLUSIONS)<br />

<strong>THE</strong> FIRST SAMAS – DEVDARSHAN (SEARCHING <strong>THE</strong> GOD)<br />

There are many religious scriptures and books to be studied but even<br />

if you do that you won’t become doubtless on the contrary many doubts would start arising. The<br />

same is true with all other forms of so called Sadhana like pilgrimages, donations etc. There are<br />

many sects preaching many ways of getting to the God. There are many types of Sadhana and<br />

worships advocated. There are many Sages who advise in their own ways. To top it all there are<br />

many Gods worshipped! The questions that naturally haunt everyone on the spiritual path are how<br />

to get over this riddle? Whom to call the God? How to recognize him?<br />

Shree Samarth says that he who created this universe and sustains it,<br />

he who created Lord Brahma, Lord Vishnu and Lord Mahesh is the real God. Others are conceived<br />

to be the Gods but are limited to that conception as they can’t do what the real God does. He being<br />

the creator if someone wants to see him he can’t as he is without properties. This unimaginable art<br />

of his is beyond the comprehension of the Lords like Brahma, let alone us the lay men.<br />

In the beginning there was an empty space, the sky which is like a big<br />

zero from which originated the gaseous forms leading to the fire which gave rise to water and<br />

thence to the earth. This is not easy to comprehend and imagine that the God in fact did it. The God<br />

or the Brahma was there before the creation of all this, is still there and will be there after its
