Inner-vision Quote by Dada Bhagwan
““Good (shubha) is considered ekantik (one sided view point); pure (shuddha) is considered anekant (all inclusive viewpoints). Moksha (ultimate liberation) is through anekant (all inclusive viewpoints). Anekant means no insistence; it accepts every truth. The path of the Vitraags (the enlightened ones who are free from attachment & hatred) is anekant (all inclusive viewpoints) and it is syadvaad (does not hurt any one’s viewpoint to the slightest extent).””
