Congregation strengthens our devotion and faith in God. It brings about a change in our life and behaviour.
Love Blossoms in the heart. When the heart is devoid of love, life becomes meaningless.
Human life is a precious gift of God. Do not waste it for the sake of materialistic pursuits.
All human beings are the children of God and constitute One Human Family (Universal Brotherhood); so all should live in peace and harmony.
Aim of life is to know God and to serve mankind.
Know the One, repose firm faith and be united in Him.
Service of Man is the service of God; saints live for that not for self importance.
Humanism is the true religion for one and all.
There is no greater religion than perceiving the omnipresent formless God; there is no such vocation better than serving mankind.
True Religion unites; it never divides. Those who indulge in inhuman acts and break human dwellings in the name of religion do not represent true religion.
God is truth and truth is God. Every human being should know this truth and perform righteous actions.
Divine Knowledge (Brahm Gyan) is the only way to peace, unity and universal brotherhood.
Divine Knowledge is the only remedy for all ills and ailments afflicting mankind.
Divine Knowledge can be attained in a trice from the SATGURU (True Master) at mere asking.
There is no need to renounce the world and run away from social obligations. God can be realized even while performing normal duties as a householder.
Humility, love and sincere feelings are the only prerequisites for attaining knowledge of God.
Shackles of omens, superstitions and rituals can be broken only by attaining Divine Knowledge (Brahm Gyan).
Caste, creed, color, race, culture and status are of no importance for obtaining perception of the omnipresent formless God.
Everyone must be true in his thoughts, words and deeds.
Saints practice and preach truth, peace, love, humility, tolerance, nonviolence, humanism and submission to the will of God.
The sure way to peace, bliss and salvation is divine Knowledge; and doing Meditation (Simran), Congregation (Satsang) and Service to Mankind (Sewa).
The aim of saints is to establish an era of truth, peace, unity and universal brotherhood to make this world a better place to live.
If we disassociate ourselves from the True Master or the congregation, we may lose all that we had gained.
However many holy words you read, however many you speak, what good will they do you if you do not act upon them?
GOD, when I lose hope, help me to remember that your love for me is greater than all my disappointments and your plans for my life are better than all my dreams!
Patience with self is confidence,
Patience with family is love,
Patience with others is respect,
Patience with god is Faith.
Religion essentially means God-Realisation and love for every human being.
Don't be like a parrot, be like an Eagle. A Parrot speaks but can not fly high, Where an Eagle is silent and has the power to touch the sky.
Some people think it is unfair for God to put thorns on roses. Others praise Him for putting roses on thorns. It is our attitude which matters the most.
Everything that irritates us about others can lead us to an understanding of ourselves.
Success is not in being the best and winning the race, but its in handling the worst and finishing the race.
Some flowers grow best in the sun others do well in the shade ! God always knows what is best for us and puts us where we grow best.
Treat everyone with Love, even those who are rude to you; not ecause they are not nice, but because you are nice.
HOPE & END are always there for everyone. It depends on us how we deal with them. A Hopless End or an Endless Hope.
Someone asked God "I Want Peace". God replied, First u remove "I" as that is EGO, then u remove "Want" as that is DESIRE, and the see! you are left with PEACE.
There is no greater religion than doing well to others, and no greater meanness than causing suffering to others.
You cannot control what happens to you, but you can control your attitude towards what happens to you, and in that, you will be mastering change rather than allowing it to master you.
~ Brian Tracy
Mere God Knowledge is not enough, congregation with saints is also essential to fortify once faith in God.
A True Master (the Satguru) does not change our appearance but changes our thinking, he does not change the container but changes the content.
GOLDEN RULE
:
U can win life by all means,
If you simply avoid Two things in Life
Comparing & Expecting
{COMPARING~ that he/she is doing this then y should i do that}
And
{EXPECTING~ that if i am doing this, then he/she will do that for me.}
Money can buy you a lot of nice things, but all the money in the world can't buy contentment.
GODISNOWHERE this can be read as GOD IS NO WHERE or as GOD IS NOW HERE everything depends on how do u see anything. so think positive....
"Saints do not preach verbally only but also set an example of their lives before the world. They preach through their actions. Every action of a saint becomes an ideal for the society. For example, whatever Lord Rama did in his life remains an idea for the society even today."
Look back and Thank God
Look forward and Trust God
Look around and Serve God
Look within and Find God
Open your heart and Love God

It's not the will to win, but the will to prepare to win that makes the difference.

As we express our gratitude, we must never forget that the highest appreciation is not to utter words, but to live by them.
~ John F. Kennedy
Thousands of candles can be lit from a single candle, and life of the candle will not be shorted. Happiness never decreases by being shared.
" When you are at your lowest, exercise patience like the ladder; and step-by-step you will make it to the top."
Love is the condition in which the happiness of another person is essential to your own.
~ Robert Heinlein
An ounce of a practice worth more than a preaching of tons.
~ Mahatma Ghandi
bhakti band kamre me baith ke ishwar ki ibadat ka naam nahi hai , balki har lamhe ko khushi se jeete hue iska shukria karte hue ka naam hai"
I live each and every day as if it were the first day I had ever seen and last day I was going to see.

We are not HUMAN BEINGS having a Spiritual Experience, We are SPIRITUAL BEINGS having a Human Experience.

One of the fathers of psychology, Carl Young, says that none else is responsible for the failures of a person other than himself or herself. One has to climb many steps to reach the top of the ladder of success and just one wrong step may lead to one's fall. TO BE SUCCESSFUL and realise true potential, one has to persevere with full body and mind coordination.
"Even the injunctions of Destiny are cancelled if one takes refuge in God. Destiny strikes off with her own hand what she has written about such a person. What does a man become after
realizing God? Does he get two horns? No, what happens is, he develops discrimination between the real and the unreal, gets spiritual illumination and goes beyond life and death."

The gain from spiritual enlightenment is more in the case of saints who make use of it. For example, when the sun rises, it rises for all, but only those will gain from its light who leave their dark, dingy rooms and come in the open. There are several other effects of the sun also. For instance, it provides strength to the human body. It makes the corn nutritious. But all this can be possible by becoming face to face with the sun. However, those who continue to stay in darkness, who on their own keep themselves imprisoned in their rooms or who cover themselves with sheets of cloth, can not derive any benefit from the sun.
Don't get upset with little jerks in life, Because life is like a road & problems are like speed breakers, they save us from big accidents.
There can be no better sign of spiritual development than control over passion and anger. If one can control these, one can control life.

Helping Hands are better than Praying Lips.

The Beauty of Life does not depend on how happy you are…But how happy others can be…Because of You!!!
We need to gain from the experiences of the past and mould our present in a way that it brightens our future.
Unless head empties itself into heart,one knows nothing of devotion
Once we become aware that the main business that we are here for is to know God, most of life's problems fall into place of their own accord.
If you look to others for fulfillment, you will never truly be fulfilled. If your happiness depends on money, you will never be happy with yourself. Be content with what you have; rejoice in the way things are. When you realize there is nothing lacking, the whole world belongs to you.
~ Lao Tzu
A heart full of love is more important and significant than all heads combined
When there is feeling of oneness then our behavior resembles love, otherwise there is hatred.
The one who is thankful to God for all the material gains, he remains humble and makes the Lord happy.
Saints call upon to live with love and shun hatred. Love is God. The one who lives with love is considered to be alive. Otherwise he is referred as a dead corpse.
The world is burning in the fire of hatred and jealousy. There are many who add fuel to this fire, but there are few who stop it.
A disciple always remains humble. He is never proud of his deeds. He is only proud of the Formless God.
Being full of pride, one should not forget the source (God). One should not forget the existence. The source needs to be given importance.
Devotees believe in bringing the spoken words into actions. They don’t advice, but mould their lives on these advices and show an example to the world.
It is being desired that we contribute to beautifying this earth, by living collectively and helping each other.
gursikh love his Satguru but love between gursikh and gursikh should be even more than that.
If we disassociate ourselves from the True Master or the congregation, we may lose all that we had gained.
None of us has the power to make someone else love us. But we all have the power to give away love, to love other people. And if we do so, we change the kind of person we are, and we change the kind of world we live in.
The most selfish letter "I" avoid it
Most satisfactory two letters "WE"use it
Most poisonous three letters "EGO"kill it
Most used four letters "LOVE"follow it and. spread the voice of truth.

HEAD AND HEART
Even though the term: ’Qualities of Head and Heart’ is used collectively,they are quite distinct.Head can be compared to a sponge whereas heart can be compared to a stream.In devotion,heart is more
important than head.
