January Circular no 01/2014

Each of us can be a Spiritual hero. We can devote
our life to Meditation and Spiritual living. While
others may spend their lives maintaining the
youth of their body, we can devote our life by
achieving real YOUTH - by identifying with our
always youthful soul. The choice is ours to make.

Be

Spiritually Serene in 2014

Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj

Our beloved Master His Holiness Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj says the best soil for the soul is one
filled with love, humility, truthfulness, purity, and selflessness and is cultivated with the practice of
meditation on the inner Light. Maharaj Jis new year message highlighted that the most lasting gift
that we can give ourselves and our loved ones is learning how to meditate on the inner Light and
Sound. Adhering to Masters message, Sawan Kirpal Ruhani Missions Youth Groups New Year 2014
celebrations at Kirpal Bagh on December 29, 2013 (Sunday) started with the remembrance of our
beloved Master, by listening to His satsang and by sitting on meditation.
Followed by this, YG volunteers presented a shabad from Gurbani Je tu beliyan tan man de naal
sewa kar da jayaga The beautiful shabad filled everybodys heart with gratitude towards Maharaj
Ji. The celebration fiesta gained momentum and Youth was now set for the following fun frolic
games with a spiritual message:
-

Peeling the Onions: Just as one peels the onion, layer by layer, one must remember
ones purpose in life is to remove the layers on the soul and be one with God.
Lighting Candles- Like one lights candle on the outside, one must go within to see the
inner light.

While youth had fun participating in the activities, they took home a spiritual message too!
The souls drenched in Masters love became thirstier after Mr. Mahendar Singh jis talk on New
Years Message during which he shared his experiences at the lotus feet of the Masters and
encouraged Youth Group to continue to work with utmost dedication. Dr. Indu Arneja also joined
Mr. Mahender Singh ji, wishing YG a Happy New Year and encouraging them to do sewa and be
groomed as per Maharaj Jis instructions.
People were now set to watch a play titled A letter to God. The play beautifully presented our
lives. How we, during everyday affairs, forget God and God keeps waiting for us! The play brought
tears to audiences eyes as it came as a reminder to follow the path shown by the Masters.

The play was followed by words of inspiration by YG Admin Controller - Mr. Ashwani Sachdeva. Mr.
Sachdeva also wished YG a Happy New Year and felicitated the YG Facilitators and Facilitators

Catch them while they are young! To accomplish substantial in life the foundation must be
carefully laid in childhood. Following this objective, an Outreach Spiritual talk was organised by

Youth Group is thankful to Master for His unconditional support and everlasting love showered upon
us. We pray in His lotus feet to provide us the right direction and strength to accomplish our spiritual
goals and provide us beautiful opportunities to serve the mission. We also wish that as reiterated by
Maharaj Ji in His New Year message for the year 2014, we will work to improve our spiritual
development by placing meditation on the inner Light and Sound at the top of our gift wish list to
enable the union of our Soul with God.

Our Life is an Open Book to God

Maharaj Jis article in Speaking Tree

Many people pass through life unaware that God is always with us. If we think about our interactions
with others during the day, we may find that we behave differently when we think someone is
observing us. We may act better when we think our employer, superiors, or others whom we are
trying to impress are watching. What if we knew that God was watching? Would we then act
according to higher ethical virtues?
It is human nature to be on our best behaviour when others are watching. When we are at work or
with our neighbours and friends, do we find that we act in ways in which everyone will think we are
good people? If we have any bad qualities, do we try to hide them from others?
If people realized that what we hide from others is an open book to God, we might be more
conscious of trying to exhibit good qualities all the time.
People wonder, "Where is God?" Masters and saints teach us that God is within us. Wherever we are
and whatever we do, God sees us. God is the power that enlivens us. This power is what gives us life.
Our body, made of earthly elements of matter, is not our true self. The power that moves the body
is the power of God. The portion of that power allocated to inhabit our body is our soul. Our soul is a
drop of the infinite power of God. It is a part of God. As our soul is a part of God, whenever we do
anything, that information is known to God.
We can think of it as a computer network. The master computer is linked up with all the individual
computers in a network. The operator of the master computer can know what is going on with the
individual computers simultaneously. Individual operators may or may not be aware that the
operator of the master computer can know all about what they are doing on their computers. If they
knew someone had access to their emails or text messages, they would be more careful. Those who
are not aware of this may end up writing things they would not want anyone to know about.
In the same way, God is the master operator of the network of creation and our souls are the
individual computers. Everything we think, say, and do is known to God. If we realized God is

watching us at all times, we would act in a positive way. If we realized God was watching, our lives
would change dramatically.
If we were aware that God hears our thoughts and words, and watches our deeds, think how quickly
our behaviour would improve. We would be super careful to avoid failures in the ethical virtues of
nonviolence, truthfulness, purity, and humility. If we were to remove our failures and were to spend
time in meditation and doing selfless service, our spiritual progress would accelerate.
