THE DASBODHA BY: SADGURU SHREE SAMARTH RAMDAS ...

the transcendental experience which can only be had after totally going beyond the body mind
intellect conglomerate.
When you go beyond the unreal what remains is the only reality, the
Parbrahma. The eighth body of the Nature is the original Maya. When you are able to surpass that
obstacle you get across a great vacuum. You shouldn’t stop at that but get beyond that too, which
can be done only with the blessings of the Guru. The Guru then gives you the transcendental
experience of the Parbrahma. That should be the aim of the Sadhak.
One who goes beyond imagination and unifies with the Parbrahma is
the real Saint. All others are within the orbit of the Maya. They are always in the grasp of the
illusions. The Saints know the real thing and hence they become devoid of any properties. When all
the elements and the properties vanish the Saints come to know that our form is in fact formless.

THE THIRD SAMAS – UBHARANINIRUPAN (ABOUT THE CREATION)
The seeds of creation of this entire universe were in the omnipresent
Parbrahma. In the utmost still Parbrahma a slightly motile wave of imagination arose. This is the
original God. Afterwards the original Maya and the eight faceted nature originated. The three
properties came soon after. The Om emanated then. Thereafter the five basic elements were
created. The soul within everyone is akin to the sky. Wind originates from it and light from the
wind. The winds coming from opposite directions lead to friction giving rise to the fire from which
the sun is created. The cold wind gives rise to water which in turn forms the earth.
There are endless seeds inside the earth giving rise to the entire plant
kingdom. This gives food for the animals and from the food is created the semen giving birth to
innumerable generations. Thus all the things were created. The basic need for all the live forms is
water without which no one can survive.
Shree Samarth says that you shouldn’t blindly accept any opinion or
hypothesis without having an experience of it. Blind faith or imagination without any basis is
foolish. His intention here is to tell us that we should accept all this after having a first hand
experience of it. In the next samas he is going to tell us about the final destruction.

THE FOURTH SAMAS – PRALAYNIRUPAN
(ABOUT THE FINAL DESTRUCTION)
There won’t be any rains for 100 years. During this period because of
the heat of the sun the earth will burn. While it burns all that is inside it will come out and hasten
the burning. Everything is thus burnt out. To add to this a terribly high speed wind starts blowing
which worsens the fire to such an extent that the moon, the sun and then the rest of the universe is
