“If you go towards the Light it increases. If you go towards the darkness it also increases, because it’s in the nature of existence to expand towards the infinite.

— Satguru Sirio Ji

“The main driving force in human reality it is the mind. The mind creates everything. According to the way we think, we shape our reality. The way we observe reality according to the way we think; creates a corresponding objecting reality. So, it’s very important to be aware what we think, because we become what we think and our reality will become the way we think. That’s why the enlightened Masters, the realized Masters tell us you keep thinking about the Supreme Reality’s qualities by repeating those names or try to think of nothing if it’s possible.”

— Satguru Sirio Ji

“In order to become successful in Sant Mat love, faith and devotion are needed the most. All these three things are equally important and they all lead us to the same thing. The disciple of Sant Mat should always have these three things in him if he wants to become successful in the Path of the Masters. The other thing that is required the most in order to be successful on the Path is that the disciple should always go on doing the Simran. He should be doing the Bhajan and his Dhyan should also always be there. All these three things should always be happening within the disciple and only then can one become successful in the Path of the Masters.”

— Sant Ajaib Singh

“Sir, can you give us an example of a good prayer?” the Muslim gentleman asked. In reply the Great Master (Hazur Baba Sawan Singh) said, “If I were to pray, I would pray as follows: ‘My Lord! I am ignorant, I do not know what to ask of you. Give me that which you think best for me. And give me the strength and wisdom to be happy about what you deem fit to give me and about how and where you keep me. I have no virtues, no devotion. My actions are all dark and sinful. I possess no merits and my mind has thoroughly crushed me. For a sinner like me, O Lord, there is no refuge but Thy Blessed Feet. Please take me under Thy shelter. I want nothing more. Make me Thy slave, that I may be Thine and Thou mayest be mine.”

— Hazur Baba Sawan Singh Ji

“So when Master first told me to do the meditation, I also had some difficulties. Until we take our mind to its real home, mind will never become our friend. He will bring many types of difficulties in our meditations. Looking at the materials of the world our mind has gone crazy and that is why it rebels. If you try to control any crazy man, in the beginning he will fight with you and it is very difficult. However, if you give him medicine and give him good advice, when he becomes all right, he also becomes a very good friend and he becomes grateful to you. In the same way, our mind has gone crazy looking at the materials of the world, but when we take it to its real home, it will become all right. Although it is very difficult to struggle with the mind, this does not mean that up until now nobody has controlled his mind. God Almighty sends into this world His children, His Saints, Who struggled with Their mind and became successful. Since They have struggled with Their mind and have become successful, They tell the dear ones, “If you will also work according to the instructions of the Master, if you will also take the grace of the Master and struggle with your mind, you can also control him.”

— Sant Ajaib Singh

“I would rather have a handful of disciples, nay even one, who can sacrifice their ego on the spiritual altar and learn to live by love, than millions who understand not the value and meaning of these virtues.”

“There is nothing in this world which we can say is equal to the meditation of Naam. Only those who meditate on Naam get high status, and only those who merge themselves into Naam get liberation.”

Question: How does faith in the Master-Power develop? Answer: By regular practice…Some people are in the make already, they have that grown already. Others have to form faith in due course, not all at once. So it’s better when you see you are helped by Master in all your affairs; when you see some improvement in your inner way. First, when you see quite impossible things are made very softened down, naturally faith arises. …The more you come in contact with Master, and the more you become receptive, the more faith you will have in Him.

— Sant Kirpal Singh

“It’s so great for a human being to explore the spiritual dimension of which most of the human beings are unaware of. Therefore the life of most human beings is like having an airplane without wings, which they drive as a tractor. The only thing what most of the people are aware of their physical body, their senses and their thinking process, which is so disturbing for most of the people. They don’t know anything about what is beyond this physical body and the mind. So if one has the good luck to becoming involved, feeling the need for something higher, coming on a spiritual path, meet a Master and initiated and do once spiritual practice, it is such a great added element to life!”

— Satguru Sirio Ji

All things except these three are useless. Without Master we cannot get the Naam; without Naam there is no liberation; and without Satsang our introspection is not completed.”

— Sant Ajaib Singh
