[Divine Souls:4895] The Master Speaks:

THE MASTER SPEAKS

(Excerpts from Discourses of Nirankari Baba Hardev Singh Ji)

 

·          Disciple (Gursikh) is the one, who is always ready to learn, wants to learn. He is the person who has the eagerness to learn, to know. One who thinks himself to be perfect and is not receptive to learning cannot be a true disciple. The quality of a disciple is to be humble, lowly and submitting. He wants to attain the good qualities of other people. The one who attains this is considered noble and virtuous in the eyes of his Master. He is elevated in Kingdom of God. In the words of Baba Avtar Singh, “ When a devotee sees another devotee, he feels  ecstatic.” If we have not got that noble feeling in us, we do not act on the words of our Satguru.

·          If we indulge in thinking ill of others, we cannot be happy ourselves. One who always looks at others’ failings, finds faults in others to disgrace them in the eyes of other people, cannot be called a Gursikh (devotee). He can not be happy and prosperous person. If on the other hands one points out failings and weaknesses of a person with an earnest desire to help him, then we should all pray that nothing untoward happens to him. We should also make sure that what has disgraced anybody, should not happen to us. One who has such feelings in him, is never disgraced or dishonored. In reality he is a true disciple.

·          After enlightenment, it benefits to be united with the Sangat (congregation). In Sangat we develop an outlook of love, affection and respect. We are changed and transformed what we experience, we talk among other people. The people who don’t come to Sangat, do not believe it, say, “that is not possible, it cannot happen.”

·          If one is standing in scorching heat, and somebody comes out of a room, where a fan has been running, giving cool air inside, the person standing outside will say, “it is not possible. If it is not cool in the wide open space, how can it be cool inside a small room.” He cannot believe that a fan can give cool air. Just the same who has attended the Sangat can feel the joy of it, the one who hasn’t cannot. The one who has shared the joy, has a dip in the ocean of saints can feel and understand that pearls are found in the ocean, not near the earth.
