What is the most important piece of advice to give to someone

The one most important piece of advice to give to anyone is: “Discover the real Self!”rnAll Lords, Spiritual Masters, Saints and great spiritual personalities in the world have emphasised on just one thing, and that is to ‘Know Thyself’; to arrive at the answer to the question, ‘Who am I?’rnIt is due to the ignorance of our true identity that we suffer in life. The root cause of all the worries and the inner restlessness, misery, discontentment that we experience in life, is our false belief of, really “I am John (please insert your own name in place of John).” John is only a name given to recognize you in this world, isn’t it? And you can change your name anytime, but that does not change you. So who are you then?rnMany believe, “I am the body.” On one hand, one says, “I am the body”, and on the other, he says, “This is my body”. Now, when you say, ‘this is my body’, it means you are the owner of the body, right? And the owner of object is obviously separate from the object; the two can never be one. So who are you?rnSelf Realization is an answer to the question, ‘Who am I?’ Self-Realization is when you realize that you are a Pure Soul and are separate from the body.rnBut just knowing it in words that ‘I am Pure Soul’ is not enough, it is important to function as the Pure Soul too. We are said to have realized the Self, when we experience the Pure Soul, by knowing its properties vis-à-vis the properties of the other elements. We must know what is our function in this body, and who is the doer of the functions that are going on in this body. On what basis are the good and bad thoughts arising in our mind, and who is making these thoughts happen? So how do we go about knowing all of this?... Only through the grace of a living Gnani Purush, can we discover the Self!!!rnSelf-Realization cannot be attained by one’s own efforts. One who knows the properties of both the entities alone can separate the two. Just like we require a goldsmith to separate pure gold from the other elements, we require Gnani, the Enlightened being, to separate the pure Soul from the other elements. When Gnani awakens the Soul and makes us experience the Self (“I”) to be separate from the non-Self (“my”), .we attain Self-Realization. That ‘I’ is precisely what we are. Where do we find Gnani, the Enlightened One?rnWe are fortunate that today we have amongst us the Living Gnani, from whom we can awaken the Soul and attain Self-Realization in no time through Akram Vignan, the spiritual science. Param Pujya Dadashri, the founder of Akram Vignan, was Gnani Purush, within whom the knowledge of the Self manifested in the year 1958. And today, with His blessings, Pujya Deepakbhai graces millions of seekers around the world with the experience of the real Self, by awakening the Soul through the Self-Realization process called Gnan Vidhi!!! Gnan Vidhi is a 2-hours experiential process, which is completely free of cost and without any hidden charges whatsoever. It is available to everyone, who is above 18 years of age, irrespective of one’s religion, gender, education, marital status or social status. One does not need to change their present religion or Guru either, in order to experience the Self. The Soul, once awakened, its awareness never leaves. As the false belief of, really “I am John” is removed and replaced with the firm conviction of ‘I am Pure Soul’, new karmas cease to bind. And thereafter, the teachings of Gnani, when put into practice, help us enhance the awareness of the Soul and maintain separation from our worldly self, so that our past karmas dissipate smoothly, while we lead a worry-free and blissful life, even amongst all adversities. So come and experience the real Self !!rnYou can find a detailed schedule of the next Self-Realization ceremony in a location near you at https://www.dadabhagwan.org/schedule/satsang-q-a-session/
