The following section contains the collected quotes from Satguru Sirio Ji and earlier Masters of Surat Shabd Yoga.
“Holy books, doctrines, theologies are there for people who don’t have the experience; people who have the experience themselves, they don’t need any of this.”
“It is very important to find out, that we have a destination in life and we want to get there.”
“God is here now, Eternity is never absent if the attention we keep anchored in the present.”
“Truth is God, but God is not the Truth, if Truth is not applied in life.”
“As you think so you become. As you think, so you create your reality.”
“Life is a reality that breaks through every door.”
“The ABC of spirituality starts where the limit of the mind and intellect ends.”
“When you give you become broad, your being becomes wide, when you take you become narrow. At least in some fields of life we should choose to live a selfless life. That’s why Masters make a Sangat, they teach to do selfless service. It’s very important that at least in a field of life do something that is not just for yourself, something that is for everybody or nobody.”
“Charity begins in your own home. If we are not able to be good and selfless in our own home, how can we hope to be selfless outside of our home.”
“Spiritual practice is a way of training the mind to stay healthy.”
“We have to learn to be steady, to be stable, capable of choosing what we want to do, and not just be carried away by situations. If we want to experience our spiritual side, the deep side that is our real Self, we have to periodically give up our involvements in the world and take time to dedicate ourselves to that Self alone.”
“The fact of thinking about being relaxed, makes you relaxed”
“A quiet mind brings heaven into our life, an agitated mind brings hell into our life.”
“Knowing life in its various aspects it is what makes the men perfect.”
“In this life we may do useless things or useful things. We should always try our best, our very best, to act wisely and live a purposeful life.”
“If you want to realize Truth, find someone who has realized it.”
“The Supreme union, the liberation is the most valuable thing in existence and you get it only if you want it above anything else!”
“We don’t have to play with our life. Our life is very precious. We have to use it for the purpose for which it has been given to us.”
“This now is always the now. This moment is the only reality we have.”
“Whatever happens it’s ok. Whatever happens is a learning process. Whatever happens in our daily life is always a lesson to learn from. When something bad occurs, or anything evil, it’ s a lesson that we have to learn from.”
