Chapter Twenty-One: Seize the Opportunity

Tak sadhi layé Whatever knowledge (gnan) and energy one expends in scrutinising the behaviour of others, their faults and weaknesses and in trying to advise and improve them, would be better utilised if directed towards oneself.  We should use our knowledge and energy in identifying our own weaknesses and vices and in trying to enhance our own behaviour and virtues.  We should introspect and  pray

Chapter Twenty-Two: Become an Altruistic Devotee

Nishkam Bhakta bano  We should believe that Bapa inspires everything in our lives. Thus whatever object, person or event is brought before us, has been inspired by Bapa.

In certain circumstances, we either deliberately turn a

Chapter Twenty-Five: Sincerity Towards God

Pabhu ni vafadari If we remain sincere and fearful of the Lord, then we need not be anxious of any worldly elements (kal, karma, maya)right up to prakruti-purush – in fact we would feel safe and confident experiencing the peace and bliss of Akshardham.

Bhavatmak Ékta The Gunatit Swaroop instigates all events and circumstances, inspires and is the supreme controller of all elements affecting all acquaintances of God (sabandhwala).  Just as He controls your destiny and inspires you, by the same token  it must be accepted that He controls and inspires others.

Chapter Twenty-Nine: To remain Submerged in Gunatit-Bhav

Gunatit-Bhav ma réhéta Thava Dear Sadhakos, We have began what is perceived to be an impossible mission to achieve a state of Akshardham ni Samadhi and worship of Parabrahm Purushottam Narayan whilst living in a world dominated by crude natural forces, and maya known as Prakruti Purush and remaining in a state of consciousness known as gunatit-samadhi such that it governs our convictions, emotions and actions, ensuring we utilise them only
