It was at a tender age that a keen desire developed in me to know, who
am I? Who is my Master?  Where does He live?  What is my source of
life?  This desire for the Truth left me the Hallowed Feet of Hazur
Data Dayal Jim through a vision. Neither I did know Hazur Data Ji nor
did I go to his Holy Feet. He led me through a practical life, keeping
in view of my love and devotion. Data Dayal Ji had asked me to change
the teachings before leaving this physical frame. I am doing this work
in obedience to Hazur Data Dayal Ji.

I do not know whether what I say is correct or not, nor do I know how
to change the mode of teachings. But I have no selfish end to achieve.
My intentions are pure. I do not want people to worship me.

I wish that they may know the Truth and how it always wins.

Generally, soul is considered to be important and immortal. I do not
denounce this concept. But this is what I have understood about soul
and about its Truth. I explain without making any claims of finality.
At the initial stages of my research, I had no distinctive knowledge
of happiness of soul and happiness of mind. I used to consider mental
happiness (ecstasy) as the happiness (ecstasy) of soul.

There is no doubt that this mental happiness that I enjoyed was of
very sublime regions of mind. The manifestation of my forms at
different parts of the country and abroad, to different persons at
different times, fulfillment of their various needs and desires by my
manifestations, convinced me that whatever manifestations I have been
enjoying within (i.e., the holy forms of Hazur Data Dayal Ji), were
not the reality, but creations of my faith and mind.

It was all shadow ("Chhaya Purush"). It is neither the work of soul,
(nor) is it the soul. The realization made me go up far beyond the web
of mental thought and creations.  From good company (Sat Sang) people
understand sitting in or participation in a religious gathering as you
are sitting now. O, my brethren, this not that Satsang which Data
Dayal Ji referred to. This is a stage for beginners only.

The true Satsang is the realization of the Truth within you. Your
physical body, mind and soul are not the Truth because they are
transitory. ‘You’ see the light within; ‘You’ listen to the sound
(Shabad); within ‘You’ is the Truth. Have company of your own "Self."
But mind, until you meditate on my form or on any other holy form, you
cannot achieve the company of your "Self," because you are not free
from phantasmagoria.

However, meditation on any holy form has its own importance and
advantages. By doing so, you will gain happiness and contentment in
your worldly life provided you have this conviction… that (the/your)
ideal is the Supreme Lord.

If you aspire for liberation, you shall have to attune your "Self" to
the Eternal sound within. You shall have to undertake the journey
upward from within.  Maya (illusion) is our intellect and its creation
of thoughts, longings, and cravings.

Shadow is materialism of your desire.

For example, one man desires to have Darshana (a vision, a glimpse) of
Baba Faqir Ji. His desire for Darshana is Maya and the form of Baba
Faqir Ji that he sees in vision, or otherwise, is Saya (Shadow).

Satsangis and their experiences have helped me to realize this Truth.
Right from my childhood I had determined to speak the Truth. I am
expressing my views on the golden maxim "Satyameya Jayate" according
to my own experiences.

I understand that whatever I say, the worldly people do not need it,
because they do not aspire for the ultimate aim of this life. They
cannot achieve it as they are very much engrossed in the web of
delusion.   A very important factor of my success in this research is
that I did not face any problem with my source of honest livelihood.
You must be self-dependent and self-sufficient. You must have bare
necessities of life honestly earned. Guru is only a guide, a source of
inspiration. None can lead you to ultimate destination with a miracle.

Bread for your belly is the first and foremost necessity without which
you cannot think anything else. But, unfortunately, today the people
are not contented with bread alone. They are dominated by ever
increasing avarice and selfishness. I have propounded the thought "Be-
man" so that mankind may live in peace and prosperity. They may learn
the principle of live and let live, help the poor and the destitute,
and they may live an honest and true life of man.

He whose earnings are not honest cannot achieve this supreme Truth. He
who is honest and sincere, nature helps him. I am being helped from
time to time and I do not face any problem, and that is the secret of
my success. When you have an earnest source of livelihood, take care
of your conduct and health.

When I was at Sunam railway station as a station master, I made an
experiment to see what happens to man after death. I sat and entered
into trance. When I descended from the state of ecstasy, my heart was
rapidly palpitating. I got up and went to a nearby shop to purchase
some grapes. The fruit seller had just put a bunch of grapes in his
balance, when I fell unconscious.

After some time, when I regained consciousness, my parents were
carrying me home and I was feeling giddy. I requested them not to
carry me home in that condition because my children and wife would
weep. My parents thus sat under a Neem tree where I again entered into
trance. I saw within three stages, i.e., of darkness, light and the
vision of Hazur Data Dayal Ji.  I do not know how long I remained in
this stage. But when I regained consciousness, it was 5 P.M.

The civil surgeon was sitting on a chair by my side. My private doctor
was standing, my father was fanning me and two persons were massaging
my feet. Civil Surgeon very politely enquired of me, "Pandit Ji! What
has happened?" I replied that I wanted to see what happens after
death. What did I experience? "Silence in the beginning and silence in
the end."

If you are convinced that this world is merely an illusion, you need
not even undertake Sadhana (discipline). Live a happy and contented
life, believing that there is an Absolute Supreme Power. There is
vibration in the Supreme Power which produces life. This life plays
its role in different forms and ends. This is the Truth. Understanding
and realization of this Truth is known as Jeevanmukta state  ["Living
at His will" state]. But this state cannot be easily attained, because
we are very much dominated by worldly desires and cravings. To those
who are too much with the world, Sadhana does not prove very useful.

Therefore, Sadhana is not for everybody. Such people must have maximum
Sat Sang, so that their Samskars (impressions or suggestions of the
mind) be changed. Those who have no desire, or who have developed
dispassion for the worldly life must undertake Sadhana.  I gained this
experience during the lifetime of Hazur Data Dayal Ji in 1919. But I
did not speak this Truth so long as Hazur Data Dayal Ji was alive,
because I know that if Truth was spoken about the manifestations of
God, goddess or any holy form, people would stop making donations to
Dham (Center) of Hazur Data Dayal Ji. However, when Hazur Data Dayal
Ji Himself deputed me for this work, I have spoken without any
reservations.

Nothing from without comes to guide you or to manifest within you. It
is the law of radiation, your faith and belief that works. The living
Guru makes you realize these stages in his Satsang.
People think that I am against Gurudom. No, I do not denounce it. The
radiations of the Guru influence the deserving aspirants. Importance
of the Guru is unquestioned.

But Guru should himself be self-realized. The present Gurus of
different centers have their own part to play for the betterment of
humanity. But those who simply work for their name and fame cannot
speak the Truth to their followers. They are a big, pious fraud. They
themselves are the victims of this illusionary world. Their followers
may possibl(y) gain something in life due to their faith and belief,
and may attain liberation as well. But these selfish Gurus cannot
attain it, because they do not follow the dictum "Truth Always Wins."

PEACE TO ALL
