“Time is like a river in which we fish out moments of Eternity.”

“If we’re able to stop this thinking process for just a few minutes, than a new dimension, a higher dimension, opens up. “

“Any meditation sitting we do, and anytime we contact something deeper inside of us, we add a brick to the temple of the spirit that we are building for ourselves.”

“We need a real Master who has been looking for this profound reality of life most of his life. Who has dedicated all his energies in this direction, in this endeavor. Because this Being with his wisdom will instruct us, teach us, and make us understand the reality of things. And since he is so good, by associating with this good person, we’ll also become better people. And since He is full of Light, He’s an instrument of the Light then you will also become full of Light. We will also become saturated with Divine Light. We will be nourished with this Light.”

“If you want to understand what this topic of spirituality, of seeking and finding Truth is all about, you don’t just go with the books. You don’t just go with the opinions of these and that. You didn’t even go with the holy scriptures. Because they tell, again, what is, quite superficial. Superficial in the sense that can only be understood by the intellect. It’s not your own experience. It’s only your experience that makes you understand how all this phenomenon of seeking Truth, seeking reality it’s about.”

“We love this Supreme Being. Because it is our source, it’s our origin, it’s what we really are. We love ourselves, by loving God.”

“Nothing better than a Satsang. There are many things in this world, but nothing can be compared to a Satsang. Why? Because Satsang is a doorway towards high above, towards right understanding and towards wisdom.”

“The Light is always present, but we are not able to tune in with it because we are confined in our thoughts, our emotions, day to day-to-day life, so we lose touch with it. We disconnect, and we become more and more isolated as beings. But when we pay more attention by meditating more, by spending time with the Master, then, we plug in again. We have a much more profound perception of this flow of energy that envelops us. And we become like one consciousness. It becomes very harmonious. It shows that the more we are separated, stuck in our person, in our problems, personal identity, the more we suffer, the more we are stuck in our existence. When we expand our consciousness and we get into this flow of energy, then we come to a state of communion, of unity. And that makes things very fluid, very harmonious, therefore, beautiful. This is what I perceive always doing retreats. In the beginning, we are all stuck in our person, in our own life. But as we proceed, as we go on during the retreat, more and more this isolation melts away, and we become one consciousness. Not quite one, but closer to that. And this makes it very harmonious, very beautiful. The difference is melt away. And like one being arises. This is a small example of what it has to be. Widening our consciousness, and perception of life, and becoming expanded in loving vastness.”

“We humbly ask our Satguru, to please bring our boat from the ocean of life to the other side, to the other shore. And we only want His darshan and nothing else. There’s nothing from this world that has any value. Nothing of this world is appealing to us that, eventually, all we want is to cross to the other side and have His darshan. So, with such a longing heart and such a devoted attitude, we try to go deep in meditation to withdraw our attention from this world and focus it as perfectly as possible on the seat of the soul in front of our forehead so that we may go across and reach the other side.”

“The bond with a Master, at least for those who really love their Master, it is unbreakable. The bond we have with our family, it’s a very strong one in this world, in this society, and this life. It is the most compact. But even more powerful than this, it is the bond that we have with our Master, if it is really our Master if you really love Him as such. Sant Ji used to say, if I meet someone who is madly in love with my Master, as much as I am madly in love with my Master, then he will understand me. Otherwise, it’s not possible to understand. So lucky are those who fall in love with their Master and take their Master as their everything.”

“Everything undergoes continuously the process of creating, sustaining, and destroying. These are the forever-existent aspects of life. And as I said, this never had a beginning and never will have an end.”

“Why does this Supreme Being manifest all this phenomenon? Because he wants to see Himself endlessly manifested. And all this that comes into manifestation, we find peace only when we consciously go back into the Divine and become consciously part of the Divine. So Master says, get out of this wheel of transmigration. Get out of this play of action and reaction. As far as you perform actions in the awareness of thinking that you are the doer, you will be bound by your actions. And for this, you will have to keep returning. But once you acquire the awareness that you do nothing, and everything is done by him, and you keep living your life with this attitude, with this awareness that He is the doer and you are not, then that’s how you get rid of this binding karma or action and reaction. This doesn’t mean we have to act irresponsibly because then we are given teachings by which we should regulate our lives. If we behave irresponsibly, then we create karma that binds us. We have to be very responsible and act with full awareness of what’s the consequences of what we do.”

“We have to experience ourselves as spiritual beings. Believing that we are spiritual beings is not enough. We have to learn to die while alive. We have to experience this process of withdrawing from the physical body to any extent while we are in this physical body. So for this, we have to meditate. That’s why Masters keep inspiring us to do our meditation because it’s only when we transcend the physical body that we experience the fact that we are Light and not physical, and not just flesh and bones. No, you’re not just these. We are Light because we come from the ocean of Light and we are made of the same substance. So any meditation sitting we have, it’s an attempt to experience this fact, this phenomenon of the consciousness withdrawing from the physical body and experiencing itself as nonphysical.”

“You must become practitioners who experience something real and alive, something that continually renews your psyche and deepens your understanding of life. It keeps inspiring you. The Path has to be on a live Path. Master Kirpal used to say, what does the Master do when you are in his company? He revolutionalized the thought patterns of the people because we tend to create a belief system all the time.”

“We must admit by ourselves we are capable of doing very little. Therefore, we need the help, inspiration, guidance, and atmosphere that surrounds the Master to have the Naam manifested within us. At least, in my case, the company of my Master has always been the most helping factor in my spiritual adventure, progress, and staying on the Path. Without the living Master, we get nowhere.”

“When we say we are conscious beings when we say consciousness, it’s not the same thing always. There are levels and levels of consciousness and levels and levels of attention. So we can be less conscious, more conscious, or incredibly conscious. So we are conscious when we live our life, mostly under the dominion of the mind, under the dominion of our thoughts that move our life in all possible ways. Mostly, we don’t decide anything. Our thoughts decide for us. They come, create a stimulus in us, and we act accordingly. So we are conscious and unconscious because there is little free action from our side. We are mostly moved by our thoughts. So we can be more cautious when we sharpen our attention. When we are really focused on something, and that’s what gives pleasure to life, to be involved, to be focused, concentrated, then you can do anything you want. You are happy. You feel fulfilled because you are conscious. You are doing something with involvement. You are fully there. And then you can be super conscious. That happens when you withdraw from the physical body and you step into another level of being, another dimension in which your perception becomes so broadened 10 times fold. Then you’re superconscious because you’re going to the details. You’re going to mind everything. You go into the subtleties. And that’s what makes us special human beings. Who is a special human being? The one who experiences superconsciousness. Otherwise, we are ordinary human beings or a bit better, but always ordinary. What makes us extraordinary is if we are lucky enough to step into a state of superconsciousness, a broad consciousness in which we perceive everything as 1. And these also happen at several degrees. There also there are several levels.”

“Take the Path to your heart. Make it the most important thing of your life because it’s worthwhile. When you will come to the end of your life, that’s what will be your treasure. That is what you will take with you out of this world. All the experiences and all the impressions which are imprinted in your deepest self will go with you. Nothing else will go with you.”

“Master Kirpal used to say that the Bhajan singing is meant to develop or increase receptivity. And we can all feel it. When we sing the Bhajans, something happens inside of our body, very deep inside of our cells. It is said that this human body is made of at least 70% water. And, water or, anyway, liquids, are very easily affected by higher frequencies. It was a Japanese scientist who made this study about the molecules of the water, and how they are transformed when they are exposed to a Bhajan singing or a Mantra singing. If you look at the molecules before they are exposed to the singing, they have a shape that is shapeless, not a nice shape. But when they are exposed to these frequencies of the holy songs or mantras, then they take a shape like a mandala or a yantra, which is very beautiful and very harmonious. Therefore, when we sing the Bhjans, our cells, which are, swimming actually in liquids, in water, feel this effect. There is this, transformation happening in the molecules of the cells, of the liquids contained by the cells. So it’s very healthy. It’s very beneficial at all levels. Physically, because of the effect they have on the cells. Mentally, because, of course, melodies are pleasant for the mind. And the mind becomes joyful, peaceful, relaxed, and calm when we see the Bhajans.”

“In the adventure of the soul or the adventure of consciousness coming into existence, it experiences itself through all the levels of creation, through all the kingdoms of creation. From the mineral to the vegetable or vegetation. To the insects and animals, and eventually to the humans. And then as an angel, as a God or Goddess, and eventually as this Supreme Being. But all this journey is meant to return to the Supreme in full awareness of who we are. When we come out as an embryo of consciousness, we are aware of nothing. Going through all these long processes takes us back to the Supreme in full awareness of being the Supreme, and you become like God.”

“When one begins to feel the need to experience something higher, which is in the field of consciousness and spirit and Light, immaterial, then we can say we have reached a good point in our evolution. From then on, it may take a few lifetimes, and then we go back to the Source, to the Supreme. So let’s be happy for this. Let’s rejoice in this awareness. And let’s do our best to cooperate in this last leg of our evolution. Enjoy this journey. Enjoy this adventure in which we want to become from human to Divine. By winning overall, all our lust, anger, greed, attachment, egoism, vanity, and arrogance.”
