1. Guru is the connecting link between God and man. It is through his medium only that we can reach God. He is the only power that can extricate us from the intricacies of the path. SMP 72
  2. The conception of a Guru as a mother is, in my opinion , by far the most appropriate and advantageous to a disciple. RD 80
  3. He must be a selfless man and a true servant of humanity at large, teaching people out of pure love without any ulterior selfish motive of name, fame or money. He must have his access up to the farthest possible limit and must have the power of Yogic transmission. RD 52
  4. I believe that if the idea of being a Guru crosses his mind even once in life he becomes unworthy of being a Guru for all his life. The very presence of this idea shows that he cherishes in his heart a feeling of self- importance or greatness. RD 50

Do you expect a repetition of such an occasion in the near future ? can such a personalities who had come down again and again ? can you match it with any of the personalities who had come down previously for a similar purpose ? Was such a one in existence in the form of incarnation? Certainly not. The capacities and capabilities of every such being deferred in accordance with the conditions at that time.

The personality now come for Natures work surpasses all previous ones in respect of potentiality and scope of Natures work entrusted to him. VR I 30
  11. Self-dissolution is the only course for a pursuer of the Divine path. He must pursue with persistence. Love and devotion are of course the main features there of.

After that, as they say, rarely may there be a few among the whole host of moths that might be capable of immolating themselves in the dead flame. VR I 35

  15. Spirituality is not in mans clothing , but in the person who wears it. This principle has been forgotten. Search is attempted where there is nothing but garments; Man is judged by his clothes. Immortality travels on : most of the western people have fallen prey to it. Indians copy those who know nothing. Quotations are given for their philosophy. Customs are followed; manners imitated. Things are going to change so fast that mans wisdom can hardly comprehend it. All that prevails will disappear so soon that one can hardly dream of it. Change and change alone in the offing. It depends on you alone. AB II VOL II P 102-103
  16. Lord Krishna as an Avatar has come down from the sphere of central point, while Lord Rama has from the other end. For this reason he had more of human synonymity in Him.

When the time matures he is born in the brighter world and then his own spiritual life begins R 81
  19. I greatly rejoice and feel refreshed when I find anyone bearing in his heart love for me. But, why after all should any one bother about it for my sake when there is lot for him in the world to love and to like?

    At least likes to be lost or
    Is willing to lose all, may perhaps be inclined towards me. VR I 101
  20. In earlier stages Divine grace flows into the abhyasi only through the medium of the master. As such it is often interpreted as Master’s grace. Whether it comes through the Master’s medium or direct, it is the same Divine grace in both the cases. So long as abhyasi is incapable of having it direct, it rests on master to bless him with it. When he has developed the capacity to draw it direct, the Master’s job is practically over, though even then he has to keep a watchful eye on him for the sake of safeguard. This is in fact the real function of a true Master. VR I 121
  21. I do no want to tell you much about myself since mere telling drove Mansoor to gallows. Although those days are now no more, yes it is quite likely that people might begin measuring me with an undeveloped sight. VR I 121

Though possessing physical body, he shall in no way be attached to it and he shall be nearest to zero. His covering shall be the whole universe where in he shall have his own play. You will find his presence in the light of the Sun, moon and stars. He is there in hell as well as in paradise. How to trace him out is the real problem. That very thing lies pouring on me by my Master’s Grace which I import to the abhyasis through transmission. I take it as a part of my duty not expecting any return for it, though it automatically becomes due from the abhyasi in the form of debt(Rina) . What I mean there by is only the reaction on the part of the abhyasi. The inner disorder and disturbances can never be set right unless you react yourself. VR I 156
  25. Knowledge therefore is no criterion of a true Mahatma or Yogi RD 43
  26. It was at the age of 15 or 16 that I wanted to read philosophical books. I ordered Mill’s “Utilitarianism” and went through a few pages of the book.

  30. The crux of the matter is that he alone is successful whom He attracts. You and I beat hands and feet for nothing.

  35. There is one cell or egg-like thing which is bigger and brighter than all the rest. You may call it the master cell. The master cell is directly connected with and controlling the world we live in, and it is due to this fact only that the personalities we have here in this world are not to be found anywhere else in other worlds. We (in other words our world) are connected with the master cell, so we have almost the same force and power as possessed by the master cell. The master cell is the outcome of the first jerk and has therefore the concentration of all the powers and energy in full force, hence bigger and brighter than all the rest. ERY 63-64

My heart remains connected with you all, here and elsewhere, giving impulse in unbroken silence to effect the hearts naturally in due course. But it is for every living soul to wake up to his spiritual needs for the realisation of the ultimate. ME 9
  39. During the illness I often saw the respected Lalaji Saheb in dreams and he, often, expressed his opinion regarding my illness; for instance he said that I was not to have allopathic treatment for this disease, which opinion was acted upon. Often he also transmitted during the dream.
