How did all Gnanis & Tirthankaras get free from this world & attain liberation? By keeping equanimity during unfolding of their karmas! They neither caused abhorrence on ones who abused them nor did they attach themselves to ones who appreciated them. In this way by settling karmic accounts of all persons with equanimity they were able to attain liberation. Even we should keep such internal awareness that whosoever we meet in this life has come to settle karmic accounts that we had bonded in our past lives & that they are just instrumental in the entire process. So whether they give us pleasure or pain, blame us or keep expectations from us or offend us - it is not their fault. They are just instrumental & we have to settle all karmic accounts with equanimity. As soon as one decides to settle everything with equanimity one starts attaining the state of Vitaragta (without any attachments). This edition of Dadavani gives reader keys to keep equanimity in different situations of life.
