How can we develop perfect nirvikalpa nischay?

Swamishri : By developing intense affection and oneness with the Satpurush we automatically reach such a state. Apart from that, there is no need for any other endeavour.

When do we develop such affection?

Swamishri : If we can realise that only he can lead us to redemption, that he is the all-doer who inspires us in all our activities, that he is the giver of moksha, then we will automatically develop a strong bond with him. Our ‘selfishness' for the Satpurush also helps. Just as we love our family because we know that only they will give us food and clothing, if we can realise that only the Satpurush will give us redemption, then because of our ‘selfishness' we build deep attachment to him.
As long as we consider ourselves to be the body, there will always be a distance between the Satpurush and ourselves. But if we can believe him to be our true form, then instantly we become one with him.
However, it will take time to remove our age-old perception of being the body. So in the meantime just keep on doing Satsang.
