Illusion (maya) makes one take birth, illusion makes one get married and illusion also makes one die. But here the condition is that it is not the reign of illusion. It is your own reign. It cannot happen unless you wish for it. Illusion gives the result (effect) of what you had consented to in your past life. Dada Bhagwan
About This Quote

Illusion (maya) makes one take birth, illusion makes one get married and illusion also makes one die. But here the condition is that it is not the reign of illusion. It is your own reign. It cannot happen unless you wish for it.

Illusion gives the result (effect) of what you had consented to in your past life. Illusion (maya) also has a great significance in the art of yoga and its manifestation is known as maya. People often say that we don’t know what we want until we know what we don’t want, but this is not true. We know what we don’t want by such feelings such as fear, anger, grief and jealousy.

Hence, before you can know what you want, you need to know what you don’t want!
