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. If we remain fearful of the Lord, we will not have to fear anyone up to prakruti-purush. Otherwise we will become

Sakar-Brahm ni Anuvruti  The acceptance of the positive angle or observance of another’s virtues without any hesitation whatsoever, with our minds and intellect is known as ‘brahm ni anuvruti’. There are three fundamental stages of the sadhana; Agna, Anusandhan and Anuvruti. We should become our own gurus and scrutinise ourselves and analyse which stage of the sadhana we have reached.   The state of our spiritual tranquillity and equanimity should not be

Samta thi Shreeji né mano Develop a habit of accepting all those whom you encounter as an ‘image’ of Maharaj.  Maharaj will surely dwell in you. Whatever comes before you, (i.e. a thought or physical being), you must remain engrossed in the memories of Maharaj (smruti).  Thus whatever they say or do will not affect you, you will not become entangled in any

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. There are many such Gunatit Swaroopos in the Gunatit Samaj, each with many followers and each with his/her own unique method

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

Jagratta ma Gnan-Samadhi If we were to attain a supreme state of consciousness whereby we intrinsically held the virtuous  qualities of non-pride, non-taste, non-attachment, non-covetousness, non-lust (Nirmani, Nirswadi, Nirsnéhi, Nirlobhi, Nishkami) then we would be in a constant state of communion with God, as stated in the Vachnamrut. G. III. 27. Therefore, we have been highly fortunate in discovering and recognising the supreme

Swa ma thi bhar Avva Those Sadhaks whose predominant nature is one of attachment and affection, whose actions are generally dictated by their hearts and emotions will inevitably be drawn in a biased manner towards the devotees who seem to show affections and attachment for them.  Nothing that devotee requests can be too much trouble – anything can be accomplished for one who

Anant né Ambva I am worth nothing – but my Lord is the most powerful, most supreme, most perfect being in the universe.  He is mine and he has chosen me.  That is the important factor. To believe that one is ‘worth nothing’ – to believe oneself to be insignificant is not for the purpose of introspecting to such an extent that

Prapti nu mulya – Swa nu samarpan Without completely surrendering one’s ego it is not possible to attain God. In order to achieve total surrender of one’s ego, it is necessary to absolutely relinquish one’s own wishes, desires, beliefs, preferences and live according to the wishes of one’s guru. Remain engrossed in the murti of your guru and become ego-less and self-less, receive inspiration from
