30 Dec 2017 (Dehradun) – Chidvilasananda rules all realms, She is the Truth, everything exists within Her, She is you and me, the goal of all of life, becoming Her, experiencing Her, joining Her dance of Rejoicing, She is Param Shiva, taking teachings to heart, becoming love, becoming everything Prayer to the Master: Salutations to my indwelling Master, my beloved Shri Guru, the venerable and noble manifestation of Shiva, who has taken on a form just for us jivas, that we may know our selves and know what we are who live on this great planet. Salutations to Shri Guru who is the Force that causes existence into being. Who is the ultimate sum of all, Para Shiva, and who is also the living embodiment of the dynamic Power of Lord Shiva by which he creates within Himself everything that can be created, i.e. Shakti, most illustrious Parvati, the Chamunda Devi, the Kali Devi, the Mahakali Devi; Parvati who is the sum of all the great Shaktis like Mahalaxmi, Saraswati, and every other divine energy actively creating and sustaining the ever changing Universe through the process of Life. O great Shri Guru, sahsra, sahsra, koti, koti pranaam at Thy Lotus Feet. Thank You for being within us as we live as droplets of the great and Godly process that we call Life. I think of You as this golden year 2017 is drawing to a close. As with every ending it marks a new beginning, yet again another new beginning in the endless flows of your never ending ends and corresponding beginnings. I think of You constantly, O divine Mother, for without You I am nothing. Not even nothing. And because of You, just because of Your Being-ness, and because of Your immense and loving grace, it is always made possible that my ignorance and my dross are set aside and Your bliss and joy shines again within me. The more I fall, the more You hold and support me. No failing of mine pushes You away from me. Instead Your grip becomes firmer and stronger, even as You correct me. How can I thank You, O Shri Guru, O most wonderful Master with the most beautiful name, Chidvilasananda. Your name, O Shri Guru, is everything. In it is everything. Its strides across and encompasses every creation, every universe and every being. Your Name, O Shri Guru, conceals the entire host of divinities within its pure and magical syllables. Glory to Thee, O Master. Glory to Thee. Glory to the Siddhas. Glory to Siddha Yoga. May peace envelop our earth. May we become united even more so by living our unity, person to person, people to people, region to region, species to species. I am soon to head for GSP, O great Guru, where I can experience so directly Your deep love, Your protection and in Your grace find further strength and direction to pursue sadhana, so that I can serve You as You will have me serve You. And so serve Your creation and these Your own people. Thank You. Thank You, Master. Thank You. Be kind please and keep me in Your fold, never expel me, never ever be Thou parted from me and forever put me on the path of service to Thee. SGNMKJ. 31 Dec 2017 Prayer continued to the Master: On this great eve, O noble and glorious Master, I offer You my every salutation and from my core I offer prayers for Your protection and for the most esteemed success of Your mission and for Your achieving all that You wish. May all beings pay homage and may the peace and love and harmony You wish to see on this planet happen, O Shri Guru Maharaj. May human beings adopt the new and wide arching beliefs that they should about our oneness with Your Lotus Feet. May mankind preserve the life on this planet and may mankind change at the core expeditiously for this. May love for God prevail and may we, in Your supreme grace, realize our divinity and live it. Salutations again and again. Koti, koti pranaam. Please live in me, O Shri Guru. Please manifest within me. Please always firmly hold my hand and make me firmly hold my tongue and my mind. Bind me to Your lotus feet, O guru. Secure me firmly. Speak to me from within so that I can never stray from Your path, Your teachings, Your practices and Your glory. Please, O Guru mine, please O mighty Siddhas, please manifest in me so that I may serve You at every step and hold Your cause and the great cause of Lord param Shiva and His Chiti and blessed Shakti very securely on my head, bear every burden and be blissful as I do it. Use me, O great Gurus, O Masters in any which way and never ever let me swerve from Your path, Your instructions. Thank You, O Shri Guru, O mighty Chidvilasananda. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. A very very happy 2018 to You. It is Your year, like every other. I offer Yourself to Yourself, O Shri Guru. Glory to You. Now and always. SGNMKJ 02 Jan 2018 Prayer continued to the Lotus Feet: O beloved Master, O Lord beyond compare, O revealed and hidden greatness of the Universe, I thank You for Your beautiful message and beautiful satsang on 01 Jan 2018. May the true import of the message “Satsang” permeate my core and may I express it and exude it at every step as You will have me do, O magnificent One. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. O Shri Guru, I sit here with open book and pen in hand awaiting Your sacred and divine flow, Your supreme instructions and guidance, as You may wish. And I thank You for the same, O noble Master, most venerable and revered Shri Guru.
02 Jan 2018 Flow from the Master: “I am Chidvilasananda. I rule all realms. I am the source of everything and I conclude everything. In Me is every occurrence. In Me is every jiva, every being. In Me is every action. In Me is every thought. In Me is every vibration. In Me is the sum of the entire Truth, which is My very body. Truth is My very Soul. I am the Soul that is the Truth and there is none other than Me. In Me is everything. And since everything is in Me, it is I who am everything. Since I am everything, there is nothing that is outside of Me. All the good is inside Me. All the greatness is inside Me. And all that is considered as not good is also inside Me. How can it be out of Me or away from Me when I am everything?
“So know this, O Virender, and I have repeatedly told this to you and I will repeatedly continue to tell this to you, that as I am everything, I am also you. I am you. I have always been you. And that is what you must believe to become Me. You must become Me. Everyone must become Me. That is the only goal of all of Life.
Life is the bubbling that arises within Me. Life is the froth of holy action that surrounds Me, and is Me. I live in each soul. And I live differently in each soul. I am never the same, even as I am always the same. All this is not mystery. It may be difficult to comprehend it with the mind. But it is easy to experience Me. In fact you can experience Me at every step, in every second, in everything that you see, in everything that you hear – it is Me.
“So live Me as an act of rejoicing. When you make yourself appear as separate from Me and separate from everything then you make yourself open to an unfathomable rejoicing. The rejoicing that will happen when you find out that you are Me in My entirety. You are this whole universe and you are also that little speck of Me from within which this universe has arisen. Yes. Yes. That speck, that little dot within Me, is the gigantic and endless universe which you consider to be the home of your planet. So rejoice in being yourself, and then rejoice in being Me.
“Now that you know that you are divine, and now that you know that every being around you is divine, and now that you know that every inanimate object around you is also Me, now, knowing all this, rejoice. What is rejoicing if you have to do it all alone, all by yourself? You must bring everyone else into the rejoicing. You must incorporate everything and everyone into the act of rejoicing and do it with great enthusiasm and great love.
“There you have it, Virender. This is the life that you and all other beings must live. Always know that the temporary shells given to you in which you encase your souls, are just very very temporary devices; very sacred, yet very temporary. And they are given to you just so that you can discern yourselves, discern Me, and then join Me in My dance of rejoicing.
“For, O Virender, I am the Shiva. I am the Param Shiva. I am the All There is, the Alpha and the Omega. I am all that. And I am Chidvilasananda. I am your Guru. And deep inside you know it. Now find it.
Do the practices I give you. Do the sadhanas I give you. And look at everything and everyone else as though they are Me, and not them. Do this, O Virender, do it all the time.
“This then is My guidance to you. This is the expression of My love for you. This is My teaching to you. For you, O Virender, I care about. I care about everyone, and everything. But, above all, I care for you.
“So take My teachings to heart. What you get from me from outside through My books, My music, My words. And what you get from you, in the inside from Me. Through My subtlest flows. Through My pure heart. Be in love and be in peace. Become love, become peace. And become everything. Strive on and do not stop till it is achieved.”
(Thank You, Master. Thank You, my beloved God. My Lord. My Shri Guru. O One of the Lotus feet. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You.)
“Good. So go now. Go in peace. Go in joy. And go in love. SGNMKJ”.

Thank You. I close my prayer of gratitude here for the moment, O Shri Guru. I will be back again and again and forever again to worship Your lotus feet. SGNMKJ. 05 Jan 2018 Prayer continued on the same after some time gap: Om Guru Om, Jaya Guru Om, Shri Guru Om. Raja Guru Om. As I sit here, O Master beloved, O Guru beyond compare, writing this I do try and connect with You from deep inside and pay homage from deep within. I am so sure, O Guru mine, that soon a benevolent flow will emerge from Your lotus feet which will support me, guide ma and reveal more golden truths about You, the Self of all, the one Lord Shiva and His dynamic power, His Cit, His Shakti. Salutations again, O Shri Guru, as I wait in all eagerness for Your golden and divine words. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You.
05 Jan 2018 Flow from the Master: “Music is so important to Me, Virender.
“I revel in music. I rejoice in music. I vibrate with joy by music. I love swaying to music. Music makes Me so alert, so blissful. Music concentrates me completely. My mind becomes one pointed and focused on the song and tune. In that focus lies My heart. In that one pointedness lies the core of My love. Music is such a beautiful trigger to awaken Me and My energies. The whole of Me is involved in the music being sung and played. My entire universe vibrates with joy to the throbs of the blissful music being sung and played.
“Yes, music is My language. So easily learn’t, so easily felt.
“So in Siddha Yoga music is such an important part of what we do. It is foundational in our many practices. The names of God are glorified when we sing them with love. The scriptures are glorified when we sing them with love. The very sounds that we bring into being are vibrations within Me. So I exhort you so many times, O Virender, to sing. Sing. Sing. Sing. Sing out the praises. Sing out the names. Sing out your prayers. And do it joyfully.
“Whenever you feel pain, which you never should, yet whenever you do then start to sing. Sing out bhajans. Sing out chants. Sing out namasankirtanas. Sing out swadhyayas. So sing all the time. Sing under your breath if you can’t sing loudly. Sing with tune. It will connect you with Me, My Shatkti. And very soon the pain will dissolve and your deepest and innermost core will take you back to bliss, to peace , to joy. Use song as a tune. Use song as a deep practice.
“Look at our Siddha Yoga music. It is so beautiful. It entices your love from within to manifest and come out and touch all those around you.
“So make available to yourself various means to hear My voice, hear My songs and to sing with Me. I will then join you from wherever I am and sing within you, with you. It will become our song. You only have to start it off. And I will be there. Singing with you. Dancing with you. And together that will dissolve all past blockages and clear you so much that your songs of love for the divine, love for Me, love for all around you – your songs will place you at Shiva’s door and it will be only a small step to melt into His heart.
“So, O Virender, sing. Sing of love for God. Sing of love for His creation. Sing of love for all who are around you. Sing. Carry the songs in your heart and feel forever united with Me. We will travel together, you and I, and all of us here on Earth, on our planet.
(Thank You, O Shri Guru. Thank You for these golden words of guidance. Thank You. I place my entire love and faith at Your door, O great Guru, O great Master, O great Teacher, O innermost core essence, O divine Shakti, O Lord of Lords, Dev-on kay Deva, Guru-on kay Guru. My resplendent Lord, thank You. I bow to You again and again, my glorious Master, my Chidvilasananda, my raison d’etre du vie. Merci. Merci. Merci. Merci. Merci.)
“That was nice, Virender. Thank you. So go now and dwell on My words and spread them around you. Let humanity dance and sing with You. Be in peace. Be in joy. SGNMKJ.”
O Guru, O Guru, thank You, thank You, thank You, thank You, thank You. SGNMKJ.

06 Jan 2018 in Dehradun – Baba Muktananda the complete being, They are doing everything – Baba and Bade Baba, They respond to each other, the Shakti is the means, They are at cause in this game of highest love – the Teachers, knowledge of unity with God, must become one with Her Prayer to the Master: Om Guru. Jaya Guru. Shri Guru. Om Guru. Dwelling on thoughts of Your beautiful Lotus feet, O Shri Guru, I offer salutations to Your glory, to Your grace, to Your anugraha, O Master. All it takes is one thought of You for delight to spring up from deep in my heart. All it takes is one thought of the Siddhas to experience immediately a deep silence within, a stillness so sweet and soft that moisture condenses in the eyes and the head bows down in silent homage. All it takes is one thought of Lord Shiva and His immense and indescribable Shakti, citi, to feel that I too am a part of Him, somewhere in His Being, a drop of His essence. That He is, that is the fountain and source of the highest bliss, of the highest love, of the highest energy. Thank You, O Guru, who from so afar, across the oceans, on the other side of the planet, send these waves of bliss, these waves of support, these waves of guidance, these waves of assurance, these waves of dependability, these waves of grace. Be Thou protected, O Guru, from every which energy that may work to defeat your divine mission, that may wish to take peace, love and harmony away from humanity. Be Thou protected, O Guru. It is my assurance to Thee, O my beloved Master, that You will always be protected, that Your will be done exactly as You wish it to. This is my deepest assurance that Siddha Yoga will be protected, O Master, and that this world will indeed become full of saints, full of love and joy and inter– dependent support. Your mission will succeed in every way, O Guru, please take my deepest assurance on this based on my faith, love and respect for You and for what You are, O supreme Mother. Salutations to Thee. So I sit, as before, O Shri Guru, with my notebook open and pen in hand, waiting for Your divine flow of compassion and guidance.
Flow from the Master: “My Baba Muktananda, my Baba, O Virender, was the most complete being of beings. His body may now sit interned at Gaondevi, but His soul, His spirit, His energy, His love, His bhakti, His reverence for His Guru – all these live on with renewed vigour, and they are spreading across the globe. Spreading His teachings directly to the hearts of His devotees – directly deep into their divine heart. He is laying the seeds of future harmony and peace across the globe.
“He has created the impression that I am doing it by placing me here in this duty. Yet it is all being done by Him and Bhagwan Nityananda and none other.
“I am only making myself available to them. I have become them and they are me. So now whatever I do, whatever I say, whatever I think, all these small movements in the Shakti, in Consciousness, are being caused by them. They respond to me and I to them. And so strong is our love, so strong is our bond that I happily do their every bidding and they do everything I pray–fully request them to do. All this happens in a flash. Even before anything is stated it is understood and action starts.
The Shakti is the means. The Shakti is them. The Shakti is me. (The Shatkti is also you and everyone else). But this is about Them – my Masters, my Gurus, my Mothers, my Supports, my Strengths, my Everything.
“Know that, O Virender, that I am what I am because They are what They Are. And they and I, we are the Universe. We are at cause, and we are the doers, the creators, the protectors. We are Shiva and we are the agents of Shiva. We are Shiva and there is no Shiva other than us, just as there is no Shiva other than you, or other than everyone else. Every jiva is Shiva.
“It is this great Power that is at work, O Virender. Know it and understand it. And respect it. And work for it. And fulfill all that it wants you to fulfill. And you can do it. You will do it.
“This Power is such that it is rarely known seen or felt except deep in your heart. And yet this Power will follow your every pure wish, every ‘nishkam bhava’, to fruition. It has to happen.
“This is the game of the highest love and it demands the highest detachment. So be detached. When you are everything – then how can you favour one to another?
“This is what we are, the Teachers.
“We have the knowledge of unity with God, and we have the will and pure understanding to see through every task that protects the evolution of Lord Shiva, and that sees every action of evolution to fruition, to happy conclusion. So dwell on this, O Virender.
“Know that I am Chidvilasananda. But I am also Muktananda. I am also Nityananda. I am also Prakriti, I am also Chiti. I am the Source and I am the Mother of all.
“Come work with Me. Become one with Me. And then, with your energy joined with Mine, let us do so much good here on this planet. Without doubts, without fear. With just love and faith as our true bond.
Blessings to You, O Virender. Blessings to your all and to this planet. The jivas will all become swamis. They will all become Me, in time, at their moment. Help them. Facilitate them. And let your love and guidance pour out on them.
“So go now and be in love. Be in peace and above all be in faith. Very firmly be in faith. SGNMKJ.”
(Thank You, O Shri Guru. Thank You, O beloved Master. Thank You for the teachings that are so phenomenal, so pure, so uplifting. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. SGNMKJ.)

07 Jan 2018, Dehradun – Whom are we thanking, Gratitude amongst highest vibrations, everything created has a deep sense of gratitude, joy and bliss multiply through gratitude, becoming gratitude, Prayer to the Lotus feet: O beloved Master, Shri Guru, supreme Swami, Lord Shiva walking amidst us as Chidvilasananda, His highest Self. Salutations to Thee, O Guru, and all glory to Thee, my venerable Lord, my esteemed Master and my very own indwelling Guru. Thank You. Thank You for such a glorious day today. The 46th anniversary of Shri Guru Gita, and our first ‘Satsang’ of the glorious year 2018. Thank You for sending to us a great timer- Ms Catherine Stater (Ganga) of the US. Thank You, O Babaji, for the beautiful share that she shared about You wearing the jacket she gave You. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You, my beloved Lord, my supreme Anuttara, the ultimate witness of us all. Thank You, Master. SGNMKJ.
08 Jan 2018, Dehradun Prayer to the Master You, O Shri Guru, are the act of benevolence, and also the Benefactor. You, O Shri Guru, are the kind One, and also the gestures of kindness. You, O Shri Guru, are the essence of love and also the bestower of love. You, O Shri Guru, are the rays of the effulgent sun, and also the sun itself. You, O Shri Guru are every individual soul, as also the sum of all souls. You, O Shri Guru, are the body of generosity, as also the generous One. You, O Shri Guru, are the source of everything created, as also everything that is created. You, O Shri Guru, are everything, so Equanimity is another name for You.
Salutations, O Guru Maharaj, salutations. I bow to You inwardly, outwardly, and in every which way.. I bow to You. You are my Master. I exist within You. And I am You. Show grace, O Guru, show forgiveness, again and again show forgiveness for from You it is possible that I may be forgiven, else I am utterly and completely unforgiveable. Such is my degradation, such is my state of denudation, that I may never, never, ever be able to look into Your divine eyes, so unforgiveable and ashamed am I. Only by Your complete forgiveness may I have the temerity to gaze at Your divine face and look into Your divine eyes. In just a few days, O Shri Guru, it will be my great and good fortune to enter GSP for a few weeks of seva, practices and a retreat. I thank You, O Master, from the core of my being. Thank You. Thank You. I sit now with my notebook and pen in hand, O venerable Master and Lord, should it be auspicious and opportune for me to receive Your kind blessings and teachings through the beautiful flow of Your guiding words. I thank You again, and again.
08 Jan 2018 Flow from the Master:
“O Virender, when you are one with Me, who are you thanking? Who are you praying to? Who is doing things for you? Be very clear.
“Yes, thank you must. You must always offer thanks. Gratitude is one of My highest energies. Gratitude is one of My highest vibrations. Gratitude is the means by which you can have the entire Universe pause and listen to you. Know this, My dear one, that the Universe in itself is the form of gratitude.
“Look at it this way. If I had not started My process of creation, then matter itself would not acquire any form. And these droplets of My divinity that involve themselves with matter would never have a chance to adopt these forms that they take with matter as their temporary envelopes, temporary coverings.
“So everything that is created has a deep sense of gratitude. Every atom or sub atom will eventually merge back with pure Energy, as will you and every other jiva. Everything knows this. And everything feels gratitude for the chance to somehow be different in a temporary or transient way, and everything looks forward to the bliss of reunion with Me.
“My bliss is universal. If you do not feel it all the time it is only because you cease to identify with Me, and no longer live and behave as though you are Me. Yet at your cellular level every part of you knows it is Me. Only the behavior differs because of your thought processes and your fleeting identification.
“So look to whom you express your thanks, your gratitude. Look to it and you will realize, O Virender, that you are expressing gratitude only to your Self. To your own being. You are offering thanks to yourself, which is Me.
“So be grateful, yet multiply the bhava of your gratitude knowing that it is your Self that you thank. That gives every motion of gratitude so much greater meaning, so much greater purpose, and so much greater depth. The offering of thanks multiplies joy of that to whom you offer thanks. Which is your Self.
“So you multiply your own joy and bliss in every gesture of gratitude. Every expression of gratitude is a beautiful way of expressing That Which You Are. Offer thanks. Multiply the joy.
“Be grateful for everything. For what you have, and what you don’t have. Because every such state is you. It is Me. And it is you.
“So you see Me in every talk, in every moment, in every video, constantly expressing My thanks. I do it with so much depth and joy, because I am expressing My gratitude to you and to each one of you. And what are you – you are Me. I multiply My own joy when I offer thanks. And so do you.
“It is so beautiful to be grateful. So much pettiness is pushed aside as you open your heart and offer gratitude as your form of salutation. Thank you for being here. Thank you for being there. Thank you to everyone. The joy in gratitude can only be experienced and not described. Live in that experience. Live in that joy. Become gratitude itself. And be in love. And be in peace. For you are so dear to Me. SGNMKJ.”
(Thank You, O Shri Guru. Thank You for always coming. Thank You for always responding. Thank You for this beautiful teaching. May I know the great joy of bringing gratitude to my life. And so may all of humanity. Thank You, O Master mine. Thank You. Thank You. SGNMKJ.).

Salutations to Shri Guru who makes known to us jivas the most sacred, yet little known, truth about ourselves. Salutations to Shri Guru who is That and who is making us all into That. Salutations to Shri Guru who is the abode of mercy and generosity, and who is the source of all anugraha, all grace. Salutations to Shri Guru who is the guider of the Shakti as It flows into us from Her through Her benevolence and Her deepest desire to make us all like Her. Salutations to Shri Guru who dwells within us all and whose greatest joy is to make us recognize our trueness and to live that truth. Salutations again and again to Shri Guru by whose grace we jivas are offered the chance to redeem our lost sense of identification by turning our recognition of ourselves as the self. Salutations to Thy lotus feet, O Chidvilasananda, again and again salutations to Thy lotus feet which adorn our hearts even as we remain forgetful and unknowing. By Your grace and love, O Shri Guru, I am here in Your home, in Gurudev Siddha Peeth, in Ganeshpuri where the Siddhas forever walk and live and stay in repose. That I am here again is a sure sign of Your grace, O Master, and I express my heartfelt gratitude to thee again and again. Thank You. Thank You. O my Self, O my Guru, O my Lord, O my supreme Mother, O abode of all the Shaktis of Shiva, O most luminous abode of knowledge and bliss, I thank You. Pour love into me such that I may pour love on all I meet, speak to or think of. Pour your grace into me such that I look on everyone as one with you first, and then one with myself. Pour your forgiveness into me such that I am emboldened to be very soft and very kind to all around me. Be in me such, O Master divine, that: I remain forever implicitly obedient to Thee, I remain forever implicitly in complete surrender to Thee, I remain forever implicitly in a body of love first, then in all other bodies – always love first, I remain forever implicitly alert and watchful of myself, of my actions, of my thoughts and my words, I remain forever imbued, infused, and submerged by the vibrations of the sound of Your great name, your hallowed and worshipful divine name, Chidvilasananda. Be in me such, O great Shri Guru, Master mine, that I stay self controlled and disciplined and that I stay a vairaghi in love with You and Your entire Universe and all beings in it. Be in me such that I remain forever bound to and a part of the dust at Your lotus feet – in this life and in every life. This is the only means I have to address You, pray to You, call out to You. So please forgive me constantly O Master, for I am sorry, I love You, I thank You. Forgive me. And here I am in Your abode, O Shri Guru, awaiting any flow, any instructions, any guidance that it may be auspicious for You to grant to Me. I hold pen in hand and wait. And I thank you in advance, O Master, thank You, thank You, thank You. SGNMKJ.
19 Jan 2018 (GSP), continued (a bit later). Om Shri Guru. Jaya Shri Guru. O Lord, koti koti pranaam. Salutaions, salutations and again salutations. Thank You O Master, noble, illustrious and supremely divine. Jai ho, O Lord, glory to Thee. Thank You, so much, O Shri Guru for bringing me here, to Your home, to GSP, to the lotus feet of the Siddhas. My time is passing steeped in the bliss of Your divine name, O Shri Guru and in doing the practices and in following the Ashram schedule. Please forgive me my countless indulgences and careless actions, words, thoughts and indiscretions. I love You, I am sorry, I thank You, please forgive me. I am ever so eagerly alert, O Master, should it be auspicious for me to receive Your divine flow of words and blessings. I wait with pen in hand, in joyous anticipation. Thank You. Thank You.
19 Jan 2018 Flow from Shri Guru: “Yes, Virender, I am aware you are in GSP, in My home and that you do go daily for Baba’s darshan and participate in the schedules. Keep doing it. It will help and support you.
“You know well the importance of our daily schedule. Baba started it with some specific purpose – to help students to realize themselves. To realize their Self. Following the daily schedule is the most important duty of all in the Ashram and while some are busy in seva at that time, yet, for all others it is an incumbent duty that they participate in the schedule and that they attend every prayer without fail.
“It is such a mysterious process that starts working within you when you do these practices as per the Ashram schedule. It is for the good of you as a seeker and for all others in GSP for they are all students too.
“The unfolding of their sadhana and the achievement of their aims and goals for which they have positioned themselves there, whether for a short duration or long, is just this – that they must attend to the schedule diligently and with disregard for all their personal matters. The Ashram schedule is holy. It is an honest and pure offering that can be made to God, to the Siddhas, to the Guru, to Lord Shiva and to the Universe in general.
“So always keep adhering to the schedule. You will miss nothing if you attend to the schedule, but you will miss a lot if you dilly dally on this or that and are tardy in making it to the sacred places when the activities of the schedule take place. A whole lot will be missed and years may go by without an active push to their sadhana.
“Seva is the only thing that should get highest priority. Nothing else. And seva itself is the schedule. The whole of the daily schedule is seva. The chanting is seva, the aratis are seva, the meditation is seva.
“Only those will loose sight of the aim of their being in GSP who are lax in their attending the daily schedule with love, diligence and highest priority.
“So never seek an excuse to miss any activity. Whenever you can you must attend. Yes, take a rest now and then. Take a break now and then. Stay fit and agile. But be there for the purpose that you (have) gone there – to become Shiva, to become God. To become Me. To become Baba. To become Bade Baba.
“To become that which you are – God.
“Strict following of the schedule with inner joy, inner peace and deep love, is an imperative. Keep to it. Never stop it.
“I love you and so I will keep giving you these guidelines all the time. Make sure you abide by them. By abiding by them you are abiding by Me. So go now, attend to seva, and be you in peace. SGNMKJ”
(Thank You, O Shri Guru. Thank You, O delight of my heart. Thank You, O supreme Master. Thank You, O beloved Lord of the Universe. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You.)
