  • The Five Dacoits the Five Perversions of Mind from the Path of the Masters by Julian Johnson Sant Kirpal Singh Ji, Hazur Baba Sawan Singh Ji, and Others
    The Five Dacoits The Five Perversions of Mind From The Path of the Masters by Julian Johnson Sant Kirpal Singh Ji, Hazur Baba Sawan Singh Ji, and others We are constantly beset by five foes - passion, anger, greed, worldly attachments, and vanity. All these must be mastered, brought under control. You can never do that entirely until you have the aid of the Guru and are in harmonic relations with the Sound Current. But you can begin now, and every effort will be a step on the way. (Baba Sawan Singh, Spiritual Gems, 339) Swami Ji has said that we should not hesitate to go all out to still the mind. We do not fully grasp that the mind takes everyone to his doom. It is like a thousand-faced snake, which is constantly with each being; it has a thousand different ways of destroying the person. The rich with riches, the poor with poverty, the orator with his fine speeches – it takes the weakness in each and plays upon it to destroy him.

  • July 1968 Volume One Number Seven
    the message of the Masters O Beloved Sawan Thy sight, O Sawan, gives light to the eyes, Thy love takes the soul through space immeasurable, Thy memory, O Beloved, remains fresh with us all the time. The entire nature, with Suns and Moons, is envious of Thee. All the flowers and buds and the cypresses tall rival Thee, in vain. Beautiful is Thy form, revishingly enchanting is Thy sweet smile. Thou art a sure guide to all on the Path of Salvation, Thou art a fountainhead of bubbling love for all and sundry; The words of wisdom, chase away pain and affliction, Those who take Thy name get absorbed in ecstasy divine. Thou art an endless ocean of beauty and grace, O Master. Thou art an ever-expanding flood of Light, O Lord Thou art Light embodied for all in the sea of life, Thou art the lighted Lamp unto our feet, here and hereafter. Thou art a living embodiment of compassion, beauty and grace. Thy light steps are faster than sound and light Even the grandeur itself bows low before Thee. The Grace of Thy face puts the blooming rose garden to shame, A Beloved with all humility, Thou hast a dignity that is life inspiring Every act of Thine enlivens the soul and enriches the heart.

They don't care about all these things while the Saint is alive; but when the Saints leave this world, their incredible power and their teachings which change the lives of many people impress the people of the world, and only then-when the Saint is gone-do the people of the world start thinking about them and devoting themselves to them. So that is why, according to the understanding of the people, stories are told about the Saints. It is very difficult to find out much about the Mahatmas of the past-their birth, their place of birth, their parents, their early life, etc.

    11. The Story of Creation I. In the Beginning QUESTION ABOUT THE CREATION Dharam Das said: Now, my Lord, tell me where the Plane of Immortality is. Describe all the planes to me-and make me, the thirsty one, drink the Nectar. Where does the soul live and where is the residence of Sat Purush? What does the soul eat there and where does this Sound come from? How did Sat Purush create the planes, and why did He desire to create them? Tell me about the creation of the three worlds-describe everything to me and hide nothing from me. How was Kal Niranjan born and how were the sixteen sons born? How were the four kinds of created beings spread and how were the souls thrown in the hands of Kal? How were Kurma and Shesh Nag born, and how were Matsya and Varah incarnated? How were the three gods born and how was the starry sphere cre- ated? How was this body created? 0 Lord, tell me the Story of Creation, So that all my doubts may go away, and my mind may become content. HYMN 0 Satguru, graciously tell this servant of Yours the Story of Crea- tion. 1. IN THE BEGINNING 19 Throw light on me with the nectar of Your words so that the fear of Yama may be destroyed. Understanding me as Your slave, tell me every single thing and describe it. 0 Satguru, I am convinced that what You tell me will be true! COUPLET Your words are true and very dear to me.

Anthropology - Dissertations. 93. https://surface.syr.edu/ant_etd/93 This Dissertation is brought to you for free and open access by the Maxwell School of Citizenship and Public Affairs at SURFACE. It has been accepted for inclusion in Anthropology - Dissertations by an authorized administrator of SURFACE. For more information, please contact [email protected]. Abstract Aghoreshwar Mahaprabhu Baba Bhagawan Ram Ji, a well-established saint of the holy city of Varanasi in north India, initiated many changes into the erstwhile Aghor tradition of ascetics in India. This tradition is regarded as an ancient system of spiritual or mystical knowledge by its practitioners and at least some of the practices followed in this tradition can certainly be traced back at least to the time of the Buddha. Over the course of the centuries practitioners of this tradition have interacted with groups of other mystical traditions, exchanging ideas and practices so that both parties in the exchange appear to have been influenced by the other. Naturally, such an interaction between groups can lead to difficulty in determining a clear course of development of the tradition. In this dissertation I bring together micro-history, hagiography, folklore, religious and comparative studies together in an attempt to understand how this modern day religious-spiritual tradition has been shaped by the past and the role religion has to play in modern life, if only with reference to a single case study.
