Akram-vignan Quote by Dada Bhagwan
““Kramic means doership. 'Akram Vignan' only needs to be understood. That which has arisen through lack of understanding, will be dispelled through understanding. There is no (belief that), 'this happened to me,' One simply needs to Know, 'this is what happened'!””
