“Without love you are nowhere.”

— Sant Kirpal Singh

“Generally, all the satsangis do not give attention to Simran. They don’t know up to which point they have to do the devotion of Master. At the time of Initiation Master tells us everything very clearly, but we do not try to understand what He says then. The Simran which is given to the disciple is Guru Bhakti. And when you have completed the course of Simran, after that Naam Bhakti is started. With the help of Simran, we have to collect all our scattered thoughts and bring them to the third eye. We can go up to the sun, moon and stars with the help of Simran, and manifest the form of Satguru. And when the form of Satguru is manifested, then Master tells us to catch hold of the Sound, and, after that, the devotion of Naam is started.

But what are we doing? Before completing the devotion of Guru, we start towards the Sound. But even if we hear the Sound, at this stage it does not pull us up. So that’s why we should not forget the Simran even for a moment, whether we are traveling in an airplane, or talking, or walking, or anything. We should not give up our Simran, even if we are talking. When the course of Simran is completed, after that Master Himself pulls our soul up. It is His work; just as a student’s duty is to go to school, and after that, it is the teacher’s duty to teach him. In the same way, the disciple’s duty is to collect his scattered thoughts and reach up to the third eye, and, after that, the responsibility, the duty, of the Master starts. It is His work to pull the soul up. Any disciple who is doing his work can see how Master is working for him and is helping him.”

— Sant Ajaib Singh

“The Master’s strong and protective arms and His loving vigilant eyes are always on His fold. He is for their progress. When outer difficulties seem hard, His inner grace increases.”

— Sant Kirpal Singh

“God Almighty has always sent His beloved children, the competent Mahatmas, into this world. The purpose of Their coming is to make us understand the reason of creation and why we have been given human birth-what we are supposed to do in the human birth. Even though the Mahatmas are almighty, all competent and perfect from the beginning, still They are so humble that They do not say that They are all conscious or perfect. Only a teacher can make you a teacher; only a wrestler can show you how to wrestle; in the same way, only someone who has done meditation can teach you how to meditate. So even though the Mahatmas are perfect and prepared before coming into this world, still, in order to make us understand that without doing meditation and without working hard we cannot be successful on the Path, the Masters also, in Their lifetimes, work very hard in meditation and teach us how to become like Them.”

— Sant Ajaib Singh

“When free, try to remember the holy Names or sweetly think of the Master. The Master-Power is the constant companion and will be extending all necessary help, whether you may be conscious of it or not.”

— Sant Kirpal Singh

“When the perfect Master gives Initiation to any soul, in the Form of the Shabd He performs all the wedding rites with the soul just as the wedding rites are performed outside. Then the soul becomes the bride of the Shabd Master, the Shabd Guru, and after that it becomes the responsibility of the Master, it is up to Him: wherever He wants to take the soul. He takes [her]: in whatever condition He wants to keep the soul, He does that, and it is up to Him when to take her out and when not to. Everything remains in His hands.”

— Sant Ajaib Singh

“Meditation is most necessary, for only by meditation will all things come of their own accord.”

— Sant Kirpal Singh

“We should also try to become beggars for His mercy and blessings, and we should become claimants of His mercy and blessings. How can we do that? We can do that when we obey Him, when we work according to His message and teachings, and when we do the practices regularly which He taught us when He initiated us.”

— Sant Ajaib Singh

“Regarding your physical difficulties, you know that all physical ailments are the result or reaction to past karma and must be borne willingly. Yet much of the severity and duration is toned down by the loving grace of the gracious Master-Power working overhead. The barest minimum which cannot be dispensed should be borne gladly with the aid of the gracious protection of the Master.“

— Sant Kirpal Singh

“Whenever Satguru comes to this world, He always teaches how to fight against this Kal power. The biggest enemy in this world of all mankind is our mind. There is nobody else who is the enemy of man. So we are not to bow down to our enemy. We are to fight against him. You be brave and fight with mind. So the weapon to fight against the mind is the Naam. Satguru is always ready to help you. Remember Satguru, every difficulty will be removed.”

— Sant Ajaib Singh

“If we have the good luck to meet a Master, in which all the foreseen qualities converge, and all of them are to our liking, then we can understand ourselves as the luckiest people on earth. You see, just the fact of meeting any Master is good luck. A Master is of great help in both the life in the world and the spiritual life. He inspires us with his shining life, deeply, inwardly turned, his passion for God is contagious, his faith in Him is absolute, he is a living example of detachment from the world and of worldly matters, a great meditator for whom sitting in meditation for a week at a stretch, is a great pleasure. Thus the company of any Master is a great help.”

— Satguru Sirio Ji

“A diligent seeker after truth wakes up early in the morning, prepares himself, wakes up by any means that work for him, sings the praises of God and sits in meditation. In this way he nourishes his inner life. If we don’t do this, then we dry up and die spiritually.”

— Satguru Sirio Ji

“We have to be always optimist and always look for the Light and try not to cling to the darkness.”

“The inner journey is one that all the Masters advise us to take. Because it’s the only way that we can change from ordinary human beings into special human beings, from physical human beings into Beings of Light. If we take this remedy we will be deeply transformed, our consciousness will be deeply changed. Consequently, our needs will be deeply transformed, our perception of life will be changed, and our perspective on life will also change.”

— Satguru Sirio Ji

“Whichever situation we go through in life, whichever period we are going through we just be positive; it is a transit. Life it’s a continuous and eternal movement and we watch this movement happening and we try not to identify with it as much as possible.“

— Satguru Sirio Ji

“Life is an alternating phenomenon of joys and sorrows and we take it just the way it comes. We try to be equipoised, balanced people and we try not to identify with the phenomenon as much as possible.”

— Satguru Sirio Ji

“Masters want us to become complete human beings, beings capable of selfcontrol, capable of choosing what to do in life, and not just being carried away by events, by what happens, without any capacity to do what’s right and to refuse what’s wrong. Otherwise we make our life more and more complicated, worse and worse, because everything tends to reinforce itself.”

— Satguru Sirio Ji

“If we follow the mind, we will become full of bad qualities, all those factors that makes us suffer. If we take control over the mind and we move towards the repetition of the holy names of God, then that is where we go. We go towards well-being, harmony, blissfulness and eventually ecstasy.”

— Satguru Sirio Ji

“Along the Path we can only take a great leap if we become intoxicated with His Love, with His Devotion. We can only do it if we completely give ourselves up to it, if we surrender completely to His Inner Presence, Inner Call, and we leave behind all logic, all efort, all reasoning, and we just go into a complete state of silence, of surrender.”

— Satguru Sirio Ji

There is no other way to pass through the Path. Neither knowledge, discrimination, scientifc research, logic nor reason will take us there.”

— Satguru Sirio Ji
