But in actuality it’s a river of grace, a river of light that keeps flowing both inside and outside.”

“People have passions for so many other things, but having a ruling passion for God is very rare! But we don’t get at the end of a road if you don’t walk on it. So, we begin with an interest, curiosity, trying to see what it is, because maybe disappointed with all the rest, so we try something else. And as we keep walking on the Path, by and by it becomes more and more appealing, more and more involving. And the more we go on, the more somehow we get trapped into it and then we can’t get back anymore, because if we look back then it seems really fool. So, we keep going and we keep going and the more we go on then the more we experience something better, something higher. And the more we get involved with it and the closer we get to God, the more everything of us dies off. All our lust, our anger, our greed, our attachment, egoism. All these human weaknesses, they all die off by and by. So, we become more and more dyed in the color of God and eventually when by His grace something special happens and we are uplifted, blessed and enlightened then nothing is left of us and He comes and dwells within us!”

“The loving disciple is always prayerful and repentant for his or her trespasses and lapses committed consciously or unconsciously during the day.

“Supreme Father Kirpal used to say, “If a pigeon closes his eyes when he sees a cat, and thinks that the cat cannot see him, after a moment he finds himself in the mouth of the cat.” If he had flown away before the cat could catch him, he would have been saved. Our condition is the same: we should not close our eyes in the face of all these passions, we should be wide awake, we should be alert, and we should do the meditation of Shabd Naam. We should fly with the wings of the Shabd Naam before they can attack us, before we fall into their trap.”

“The more you absorb yourself into that Light and Sound, the more love will overflow from you.”

“If we don’t appreciate the gift of God, then who knows whether He will give us this gift again or not? We all know that the human body is a precious gift which God gives to us after we wander in many bodies, and we don’t get this gift again and again. This is a golden opportunity which God has given us to do His devotion. If we do His devotion, and if we do the meditation of Naam, that is the only way in which we can express our gratitude and our appreciation for the gift which we have received from God.

If we do not meditate, the Light of Naam which God has put in our within also gradually goes away, and when that Light goes out completely then we find no place either in this world or in the world beyond.

So we should appreciate the human body, the golden plate, which God has given to us, by utilizing our every single breath in His remembrance. Whatever time we spend in His remembrance – it is like we are spending all our time in appreciating the gift of God and utilizing it in the way that God intended. If you don’t do that, God also becomes very sorry when He sees that the souls are not utilizing His gift. When He sees that the souls are not taking advantage of this precious human body, He also becomes very sorry, just like the king who gave the golden plate to the sweeper who did not appreciate it. So we should not make God sorry for our condition, because He watches over us all the time, and whatever things we do, whether they are good or bad, He knows all that. So we should always work in the direction of appreciating God’s gift to us and in doing our meditation.”

“The journey may be long but has to be completed. Life is running out, let not vain pursuits deflect us from our noble path.”

„Nobody can become a Saint overnight. If one is to become a Saint, he has to work very hard; he has to meditate. If he has become a Saint by meditation, His power and His competence will not decrease; and if some people form a party and say that he is a Saint, and if in fact he is not, if he has not done the meditation, he does not become a Saint in that way. Nobody can become a Saint just because he has the support of a few people. The great souls Who come in this world work very hard, give a lot of pain to Their body, and keep themselves involved in Bhajan and Simran day and night; and only then can they achieve this high status and become Saints. They do all these things because They have to demonstrate to other people, and make them do the things which They have done. Unless one has done something, He cannot make other people do it.”
