Book 10 – Personal Experience
My family came into contact with Guru Maharaj Ji in 1996. My younger son got married in May 1994, but until 1996, they had no children. They received Guru Maharaj’s blessing for children. Within a year, a girl and a boy were born by the grace of Guru Maharaj, bringing happiness to my entire family. Everyone sincerely thanked Guru Maharaj, which strengthened my faith even more. One day, I went to see Guru Maharaj Ji…
Book 10 – Discourse
Narayan is the Supreme Principle word. This has been accepted by our Hindu culture or numerous sacred texts and many saints. Saint Shiromani Tulsidas Ji also, while writing the story of Lord Shri Ram, accepts his chosen deity Narayan. He writes very clearly in the Mangalacharan – Neel sarohu syam tarun arun baarij nayan,Karat so mam ur dhaam sada dheer saagar sayan With a blue lotus-like complexion, youthful and dark, with reddish lotus-like eyes,He ever…
Book 10 – Questions & Answers
Question: Which is superior, service or remembrance? Answer: Service and remembrance are complementary to each other. Neither is lesser nor greater than the other because they both are incomplete without each other. Therefore, they are complete only when combined. Without service, remembrance is incomplete; it does not lead to salvation, progress, or peace. Merely performing service does not bring peace. Therefore, these two complement each other, like the heart, kidneys, liver, and lungs. If the…

Book 9 – Personal Experience
I came into contact with Sri Guru Maharaj Ji in 1986 when he was living in Kotla, New Delhi. Since then, I have witnessed many miraculous events. Sri Guru Maharaj predicted many future events, all of which came true. Whenever I or my family members fell ill, praying to Sri Guru Maharaj would miraculously cure the illness. Years after my younger son got married, he and his wife were childless. One day, I prayed to…
Book 9 – Message Of The Gita
I have had a passion for reading the Shrimad Bhagavad Gita since childhood. Even though I didn’t understand the meaning of the verses, reading the Gita brought me immense joy and peace. I have read the words of many saints and listened to numerous discourses, but the way Sri Guru Maharaj, Swami Sudarshanacharya Ji, embodied and conveyed the message of the Gita is unparalleled. His life is a living example of the Gita’s teachings. If…
Book 9 – Questions & Answers
Question: On one hand, the Gita says: Yada yada hi dharmasya glanir bhavati bharata, Abhyutthanam adharmasya tadatmanam srijamyaham Whenever there is a decline in righteousness, O Bharata,And a rise in unrighteousness, at that time, I manifest Myself On the other hand, when you give initiation, you mention in the ultimate mantra: Sarva-dharman parityajya mam ekam sharanam vraja, Aham tva sarva-papebhyo mokshayishyami ma shuchah Abandon all duties and take refuge in Me alone.I will liberate you…
Book 9 – Discourse
From the earliest times, it was established that crossing the ocean of existence without a guru is not possible — “Gur bin bhav nidhi taraihe na koi” (Without a guru, no one can cross the ocean of existence). The human body is meant for devotion to the Lord. Let us all gather together and sing the glories of the Lord’s name. Narayan is a supreme word. The supreme element is called that beyond which there…
Message To Humanity – Discourse 2
Introduction All the materials of materialism are like chutney. They taste delicious but later cause burning in the stomach, remember this. Similarly, the collection of materialism looks good but after collection, it creates various types of mental stress, various kinds of worries, fear of rule, fear of theft, and various types of fears. And this true philosopher’s stone is the name of that Lord, it is the philosopher’s stone of the name of the Lord,…
Message To Humanity
Dear ones! Here is our message about human life. Human life is very peculiar. The Vedas, the Puranas, the histories, and our ancestors and saints have expressed their thoughts in their own languages. They all concluded that human life is the only meaningful life if humanity is embraced. Saint Tulsidas loudly proclaimed in his scripture, beating the drum repeatedly, saying: Saadhan Dhaam Moksh Kar Dwaara,Nar Tan Paay Na Parlok Sahaara The body is the means…
Surrender – Satsung 2 (02 April 2000)
Just now, Pandit Lakshmichand Ji said in the hymn that the word ‘Refuge’ is paramount. This word is the essence of all devotion, all penance, the essence of all sacrifices, and the essence of all essences. There is no higher ultimate goal or ultimate means than this. No matter how much penance you do, how much yoga you practice, how much devotion you perform, how many sacrifices you make, you cannot attain the divine realm….
Surrender – Satsung 1 (05 Dec 1999)
Dear ones! The essence or reality of human life is the work you are doing at this time. The name of God, the singing of God’s praises, the glorification of God—this is the supreme essence, the essential element of Kaliyuga. The work that is appropriate for the era is the supreme essence. In this Kaliyuga, the greatness of God’s name, its singing, and its glorification are the supreme essence, and this is also the essence…
Vaikunthwasi Baba’s message to humanity
Humanity is your prime religion. When a human being becomes humane, the Lord God takes the responsibility of protecting him. Those who work and strive for the benefit of others are truly human and are the ones who realize the divine in their hearts. Those who live only for themselves are akin to animals, and those who harass and torture other beings are demons. The sole purpose of human existence is the realization of God….
The Spiritual Path
A theosophist Guru has such sacred powers that protect his disciples from all kinds of illnesses and ill effects. Any seeker who surrenders himself completely to his Guru, then his entire responsibility comprising his joys and sorrows, his illnesses and curses, is accepted by the Guru. He protects him in every manner. It is the Guru who takes care of all his mental, physical, and spiritual matters. Even if some ascetic or deity curses him,…
Discipline Expected Of A Disciple
A disciple should maintain complete discipline and decorum in front of his Guru. He should not try to express his opinion or make comments on his Guru’s teachings. It is not advisable to even express his opinion on the Guru’s discourses by saying, “I personally believe that….” He should not try to give any advice or sermons to his Guru, telling him what to do and what not to do. This would be extremely discourteous….
Love
Beloveds, As every month, today too there is a satsang (spiritual gathering) organized at your home. I have repeatedly mentioned that satsang means to embrace the truth, to embody meaningful words. Satsang is not about any kind of story or specific anecdotes. These other anecdotes are provided to embellish and adorn the true message. Otherwise, the truth is this: Ek bhakt Bhagwan, jihi prani ke naahin man,Jaise sukkar swan, Nanak maanhoon taahi tan One who…
The Divine Guidance and Miracles of Guru Maharaj: A Journey of Faith and Transformation
DISCOURSE DELIVERED BY GURUJI ON 23 MARCH 1998 Dear devotees, Guru devotees, exclusive saints and scholars! Welcome to all of you for your arrival here in my satsanga. Yesterday in my discourse, I emphasized humanity. As you know, this human body cannot be obtained by yajanas or charities or by thousands of penances/yogas. It is just a body, blessed or granted by God. A human body is above all, as whenever God incarnates on the…
Just the Name of Lord Hari
In Kaliyuga, Bhagavad Bhakti (devotion to the Lord), singing bhajans, and naama sankirtan (chanting or singing His name) are considered very important for attaining spiritual success: Dhyan Krutey Yajan Yagyestretaayam Dwaparerchayan, Yadapnoti Tadapnoti Kalou Sankirtya Keshavam What one achieves through meditation in Satya Yuga, through sacrifices (yajnas) in Treta Yuga, and through worship (archana) in Dvapara Yuga, can be attained in Kali Yuga simply by chanting the name of Lord Keshava (Krishna).Vishnupuran “The consequences attained…
Realize Yourself: Who is God?
It is natural for a philosophical mind to seek the origin of creation. When a person sees the stars at night, they naturally speculate about their inhabitants. Such inquiries are natural for humans because they possess a developed consciousness higher than that of animals. The author of the Srimad-Bhagavatam provides a direct answer to these inquiries: Lord Sri Krishna is the origin of all creations. He is not only the creator of the universe but…
The Purna Avatar of Lord Narayana – Lord Shri Krishna
O Adorable Krishna! Let my longing eyes behold Thy form. Let my ears hear Thy flute. O Healer of all sorrows! Show me Thyself. Thou art the only Truth—All the rest is false. I crave not for Mukti; I long not for emancipation; Let there be devotion to Thy feet. Be kind unto me, O Lord! Remove my delusion. I am a servant unto Thee. The auspicious hour came. The star Rohini was shining. It…
