It’s a completely focused attention with no minds, no thoughts, completely immersed in what we are doing! So any spiritual practice what we do, the Bhajan singing, the mantra singing, Darshan, looking at the Master, in His face, in His eyes it’s all meditation! It’s all contributes to uplift our consciousness.”

He then becomes care-free, leaving all the work to the merciful and benign Father, of working out things as He deems best. Such a life becomes supremely sweet and all his problems become easier and his way becomes clear and smooth. The Master-Power is constantly extending all feasible help and blessings. Let us fully repose our trust in Him. The fortunate ones do as the Master says, and receive all the necessary material help, which goes a long way to assuage the severity of the karmic debts. The difficulties and troubles may come, but they pass off without leaving an ugly mark behind. Please do not lose heart.”

“Dear ones, often I have said that if we want to store the milk of a tigress, we need a vessel made of gold. In the same way we need to make our within, our heart, very strong, very courageous, very grand, if we want to preserve this wealth of Spirituality. We should not be like a gambler and waste the spiritual wealth which we have gained for the worldly problems. Because when we are living in this world, the pains and happiness are [both] going to come. The problems will come, so that is why we need to make our heart, our within, very strong, so that we can maintain and preserve this spiritual wealth which we are getting from doing the meditation.”

— Sant Ajaib Singh

You should resort either to the repetition of the five holy Names during all vacant hours of the day and night as well as keeping your mind in sweet remembrance of the Master wherever you may be, or in listening to the sweet symphonies of the melodious Word, if it becomes audible. This will leave no room for idle thoughts and they will not disturb you in meditation.”

— Sant Kirpal Singh
