1962 Birthday Message Dear Ones, On my sixty ninth physical birth anniversary I send love to you
all with all blessings of my heart and request you to: 1.
Cultivate inner life shunning all madness of outer show. 2.
Sit daily in silence until it sprouts forth into Light and sweet Music
of the Spheres, and develop innocent love which knows only service and
sacrifice—the only way back to God. 3.
And a win the love of god become humble. All scriptures speak of
impermanence of all and unchangeable permanence of God. Renounce love of the former and enjoy
communion with the latter. Rise above
body –consciousness to be born into a new Life of oneness and harmony. February 2,1962 Kirpal
Singh ______________________ 1962 Message on Birth Anniversary of the Great Master Hazur maharaj Baba Sawan Singh Ji Dear Ones, On this Birthday Aniversary of My Master (Satguru Baba Sawan
Singh Ji), I send you my best wishes for your spiritual progress. We are fortunate in that we have attained
the highest rung of creation; viz., man-body, which is the gateway to God. Mind that you have not a soul, you are a soul—a drop of the Ocean
of All-Consciousness—the Life Eternal.
Regain your dignity. You are
bound to mind and the outgoing faculties so much so that you are identified by
the body and have forgotten your own self and the Overself. The body is the temple of God. The Body must be kept pure and chaste in
order that God may work through it for your own good as well as for the service
of humanity. To customs and creeds that were made for thy uplife, thou has let
thyself become bound. You are enslaved
to them, and worship them as the be-all and end-all of life. You must make the best use of them only to
attain your purpose in life-which is-to join the Army of God. How can your life be
sublime? Set up some ideal before you and work for that with heart and soul. All Master, to name some, Jesus, Buddha, Mahavira, Mohammed, Guru
Nanak, Kabir, who came in the past, were great. We revere Them. The
substantial question arises: Are they satisfied with us? They can be if we live
up to what they taught. They taught us
to return to Nature and observe simplicity in all things. They taught us to have love of God first in
all our affairs but we made love of mammon first instead. They taught ‘ Love and all things shall be
added unto you’ for God is Love and Love is God and that God can be attained
only through Love. Love God and love
all sentient beings. Love knows service
and sacrifice. The secret of life,
therefore, lies in serving others, helping the poor, feeding the hungry
narayanas (gods-Souls), sending sympathy and love to those who stand in need of
help and strength. By doing this, your
self will expand to all and you will give vent to thoughts of the past great Masters:--
‘Peace be unto all, under Thy Will, the world over, O Lord’. Apropos-become attuned to the God-into-Expression Power and open
you Inner Eye or the single eye to see the Light of God inherent in every form,
and open the Inner Ears to hear the Eternal Voice of God reverberating in all
hearts. You will find that others are
not apart from thee, but are a part of thee.
They are yours and you are their; no separation between thyself and the
whole creation. You will rise to Cosmic
Consciousness and see that all are brothers in God and all are children of the
One Eternal who shines in all forms.
The mystery of a beautiful life is the love that never dies. I send you all my love and sympathy. O, Take my life and let it be consecrated O Lord to Thee; to
Thee; Take my hands and let them be ever holding Truth for Thee; Take my feet and let them be ever treading a Path to Thee; Take my tongue and let it be ever singing Praise of Thee; Take my heart and let be ever offered O Lord to Thee; My Master always enjoined: “ Not to think evil of others, even
those who hate thee and despise thee.
If they do not leave off their hateful habit, why should you leave off thy
loving habit? If you want to be happy, make others happy. If you want to be blessed, bless
others. Those who injure others, are
injured. Such is the Great Law. With love, July 17,1962 Kirpal
Singh ______________________ 1962 Christmas Message Dear Ones in the Lord: On this Christmas Day, I send you my hearty wishes for your
progress on your way back to the sweet Home of our Father. Entire self-surrender to God is the secret
of a true lover of God. Therefore, he
should be a man of purity, humility and meekness. The main thing one should do is devotion to the Name of god and
see the Light and hear the Voice of God—the sound Principle reverberating in
all. For this, he should devote regular
time to meditation and conquer the passions through communion with the Master. He should sing of God—the Beloved, and enter
into the ‘Super-conscious’ through intoxication of His sweet remembrance. In such intoxication of love, one wishes to
kiss the very ground, love all creation and all mankind and breathe peace unto
all the world over. My work is to
reveal to you the Unity already existing through all and would ask you to turn
away from sectarian strifes to the Path of Love. This will be achieved by one who will be intoxicated with love. God is love and our souls are of the same essence as that of
God. Love is inherent in our souls and
the way back to God is only through love: “love and all things shall be added
unto you.” You may read libraries of books.
Of what avail are they? You may have many meritorious acts. What avail are they? Far are you from the
Beloved if there be not the longing in your heart. Consume hundreds of books in the fire. Let your heart blossom forth with the sweet remembrance of the
Lord. Be absorbed in the white radiance
of the Beloved. Be absorbed and you
will know that the Master is but One with God.
He appears in every picture. In
every race and religion, every prophet and saint, every scripture and song, is
the shining ‘ One’ revealed. Let your
inner-self be overflowing with the love of the Master so much so that all
thoughts of yourself be lost in Him.
Saint Paul said: “It is I, not now I , but Christ lives in me.” Be not imprisoned in the jail of ‘I’ and ‘me’. He who hath transcended self, he verily hath
attained to the Highest. He hath become
Perfect. Such a one knows no difference
between the Hindu, the Musilm, the Sikh, the Christian, the Jew, the Buddhist
or the Zoroastrian, for God is the Lord of all and in all shines the one
picture Divine; we are worshippers of the same Lord. The One is within thee, outside thee in me, in him and in every
place. That one alone deoth speak in
all. I wish you awake, awake. Awake this very day of Christ. Awake in the Kingdom of God which is shinning with you. Be not in love with passions. Think no evil of any one. Strive not for greatness, wealth and applause. Awake in the brotherhood of God. Inculcate love for one and all. See them all in the One—the shining One. Kirpal Singh ______________________ |
