The following section contains the collected quotes from Satguru Sirio Ji and earlier Masters of Surat Shabd Yoga.
“Man wants peace, we all like to have peace in our life, around us and in the world, but the only real peace that we may find it’s with us, with ourselves, inside of us.”
“It’s in the suffering, in the pain and in the crisis there we find the strength to win over our weak nature.”
“Those people who have the good luck of being good, loving, positive people, they should try to radiate as much as possible the wave of Light and Love into the atmosphere to balance the other side.”
“When we deeply meditate we give up the thinking process. In the thinking process there is always a mixture of true things, false things, illusions and Truth. When we raise above this thinking machine, which is in our head all the time then there is silence, there is peace that’s Truth. And it’s also freedom, freedom from the obsession of thoughts.”
“You don’t just be happy being called a Satsangi, called a disciple, you be one! Don’t just be happy with getting something and no follow it or follow it in a bad way. You follow it with all of your heart, with all of your being. Be true to the choice you make in life! When we take initiation we promise that we live a certain lifestyle and we do our spiritual practice. So, if we want to be Satsangi keep doing what we promised at initiation.”
“Very often the toughest the lesson the most we learn. Crisis very often are blessings dressed up as a hard lesson. And the more the problems seems to be without a solution, the more we learn and the more we grow. What matters is the outcome, what we learn from any lesson and how much we change and transform ourselves.”
“In life so many things might happen. We are being in good health or no good health. We can have easy situations in life or difficult situations in life. But whichever it is the situation, we don’t let the situation to crash us. We deeply know that it’s a lesson through, which we need to learn something. So, we face the situation and learn the lesson.”
“A true disciple He will face life the way it comes, if it’s possible to be joyful it will be joyful, if it’s not possible and we go through a tough time in our life He will face that with bravery, but keep pursuing His on Truth.”
“People follow illusion after illusion. I delude myself that this is going to give meaning to my life, make me happy, make me fulfilled. But time pases and I found out was not true. Then we find something else, another illusion, “oh this is what I really like now” and illusion after the other, eventually we are totally disappointed. We never get the real fulfillment. Through the outer things, which we get from the outer world we never find complete fulfillment.”
“Anything that is in this physical world it is a bad reproduction of what is on the other world. In this world we have wine, which makes from grapes and contains alcohol to make ourselves drunk and intoxicated. But this is just a bad reproduction of what it is the Divine ecstasy and the Divine intoxication. That kind of a intoxication makes us holy, wise, great people. That is the difference.”
“What in this world can be equal to having one’s consciousness saturated with Divine Light, with Divine Presence? Nothing can be compared to this, just nothing. There is nothing in this world, no sensual pleasure that may give us such a gratification.”
“The spiritual transmission it’s a certain type of osmosis, which is shifted, transmitted from a bigger container to a smaller one.”
“What is spiritual awakening? Spiritual awakening is becoming aware that there is an incredible spiritual energy, which is spiritual Light. And being asleep spiritually what does it mean? That you don’t perceive this Divine Energy, this Divine Light.”
“Satsang is what allows us to grow, to understand the Teachings, to understand at least at an intellectual level the Reality of Life, the Truth of Existence and if we keep listening to the Satsangs of the Master by and by we might have also a spiritual awakening.”
“The greatest good luck of this life is that meeting a True Master. But it is a good luck only if we meet the Master and we recognize Him as such. If we don’t recognize Him as such and we just see in Him just an ordinary man then bad luck of ours. It’s of no use or very little use of this meeting.”
“Once the Inner Eyes open and we transcend the physical consciousness then automatically we step into the River of Light and if you fall into it then it will takes us to the source, to the Ocean of Light.”
“The essence of the all, the substantial aspect of life, the very fundamental element in life, it’s the True Naam, the True Guru and Satsang.”
“The spiritual seeker is somebody who has by the grace of God come to understand in this life there is a goal to be achieved, such a person that has a grace to have been enlightened in this direction of understanding that we don’t just come for eating, drinking, sleeping, working and enjoying some pleasures, suffering a lot and leaving this world for nothing. There is a goal to be reached! There is a purpose for this life, a very elevated and high purpose. So, if you come to understand this then we have to live such a life and do such a practice so that we may go on this journey and reach our destination.”
“When we come in this world, we come with a certain capital, which is what we have been developing through many many existences. The purpose of this life is that of increasing this capital to make it grow, improve it.”
“We have a natural inclination, we come with a certain mission for this life and we have pursue that, so whatever is our inclination, what is our choice in life let’s got deep into it, let’s try to do our best in it.”
