You will be blessed by the Lord – Pappa We have embarked upon the sadhana to attain a state known as ‘brahmrup’ and to worship the Pratyaksh Swaroop known as ‘Parabrahm’ – a sadhana which entails the purification of our souls. This
To accept that each event has been instigate by the Lord… To serve the Lord by practicing true spiritual friendship… is the supreme attainment – Pappa Our whole sadhana is concerned with the concept of believing, acknowledging and accepting that the Pratyaksh Swaroop is the inspirer of all events, one who controlls the behaviour of everyone, and also controls our
Relentless nirdosh-buddhi towards the Pratyaksh Swaroop is the supreme worship. Relentless nirdosh-buddhi towards His devotees is the ultimate attainment: Gunatit Gnan Samadhi – Pappa We have been extemely fortunate to discover, recognise and accept the Pratyaksh Swaroop in human form, a swaroop who is in constant communion with God. We have accepted this fact totally – with our heart, mind
Remain constantly submerged in the Divine Guru and Guruhari. Thus the crude forces of Maya will not affect you – Pappa The extent of our fortune is beyond comparison because Yogiji Maharaj has bestowed great compassion upon us by forming a divine union between ourselves, our Guru and Guruhari, – a divine bond based on attachment of the hearts, mind,

Serve with supplication. Endure with divine sentiments – Pappa We are bona fide members of the Gunatit Samaj. All devotees (sambandhwala) are Akshar-muktos, members of Akshardham. They are all souls ‘in the process of purification’. Thus we should endeavour to remain humble and serve the Lord with supplication. This is the ideal means of achieving the ultimate goal. We should

To be the cause of indurance and tolerance is be egotistical (Alaukik Bhumika) – Pappa Our ideal mission is to achieve ‘sadhuta’ – to attain the highest spiritually virtuous qualities.

To whole-heartedly support and endorse whatever the Pratyaksh Swaroop initiates is selfless devotion – Pappa For us Yogiji Maharaj was, and still is, considered to be the Pratyaksh Gunatit Swaroop. He spent his whole life acknowledging even those muktos with the slightest samband, accepting them as ‘images’ of the Lord and serving them accordingly. He practised and applied the principles
In every crisis, to seek guidance and assistance from the Lord, is the supreme refuge – Pappa We have recognised the Supreme Lord as the Sahajanand Swaroop. Only if we accept the Lord to be the ultimate controller of kal, karma, maya, swabhav, prakruti and purush, can we assume our association with Him to be genuine. Thus, when he instigates
