“Gnan (knowledge) of every living being of the entire world exists in a Soul. However, only the Gnan that is able to see the ego and everything as gneya (object to be known) is considered as ‘Gnan’. Yet, that is still ansh-gnan (partial knowledge), and is considered as upayog (applied awareness as the Self) from that moment on. Where there is Gnan, there is upayog, either partially or completely.”
“Complete shuddha upayog (pure applied awareness as the Self) is keval gnan (absolute Knowledge)”
“If a person wants to walk on the path of the Vitrag (Enlightened Ones), he should turn the upayog (applied awareness) from bad to good. And if the person wants to attain moksha (ultimate liberation), he should keep shudha upayog (pure applied awareness as the Self). The person who wants to attain moksha should not get into the intricacy of good or bad, and should keep them both as things to be ‘discharged’.”
“Shuddha Upayog (pure applied awareness as the Self) is the same as Parmatma Swaroop (embodiment of the absolute Self).”
“Action is bondage in itself. Action is not needed to attain moksha (liberation). Gnan kriya (activity of the Self to See and Know) is required for moksha. Agnan kriya (Activity of the non-Self) is bondage. Activities done with egoism is called Agnan kriya, and activities done without egoism is called Gnan kriya.”
