August Founder’s Permanent Dayalbagh Presence.
****

“... aur vichar karen ki kya aapne apni saari shakti laga kar Dayalbagh ki unnathi mein koi madad kee hai ya nahin.
...
Huzur Mehta Ji Maharaj ne Hum sabko Salaah Dhi hai ki Hum Param Pita Soami Ji Maharaj se prarthna karen ki waha Dayal Apni Upasthiti se Satsang ki shobha Badhane aur Hum logon ke saath yahan Dayalbagh mein Sadeiv Niwaas Karne ki Daya Farmayen. Agar aapne apne anthar ke anthar se yeh prarthna ki aur Param Guru Soami Ji Maharaj ussey Manzoor Kar yahan Tashreef Le Ayen, tho aap Unko apna chehra kaise dikhayenge agar aapne kabhi koi aisa kaam kiya hai jo Satsang samaaj wa Dayalbagh ke hithon ke liye haanikarak hai?”

---- Param Guru Huzur Dr Lal Saheb Ji.

Its simple translation into English may be rendered as follows:

“... and reflect upon whether you have employed all your means to help the progress of Dayalbagh or not.
...
Huzur Mehta Ji Maharaj has Given Us all the Advice that We should pray to the Supreme Father Soami Ji Maharaj that His Graciousness May by His August Presence Add to the glory of Satsang, and May Grant Us the Grace of Permanently Residing in Dayalbagh among all of Us. If you have in your innermost recesses prayed so to the Supreme Lord Soami Ji Maharaj, and He Pleases to Accept it and Fetches His August Presence here, how will you be able to show Him your face if you have ever performed any misdeed that proved detrimental to the interests of the Satsang community and Dayalbagh?”

Rationale for Prayer for Politics.
****

“Zyadathar yeh sawaal poocha jatha hai ki jab humare Radhasoami Dharma mein raajniti ko sarvtha tyagne ke Adesh Diye gaye hain, tho phir humse savere Satsang mein Maalik se raajniti sikhane ki prarthna kyon karwayi jathi hai ki
‘Rajniti sadh bhakti reethi, doyi Sikhayo humko.’
...
... Huzur Saheb Ji Maharaj ka ek Bachan padha gaya. Is Bachan mein Mussolini ki safalta ke char kaaran bathaye gaye hain. Satsang mein bhee yeh thatv maujood hai. Mussolini ki safalta ka chautha kaaran yeh tha ki wah ek nayi jathi wa nayi riyasath banana chahta tha. Humare liye yeh gun bahut mahatvapoorna hai kyonki Satsang bhee ek nayi riyasath wa nayi jathi ko janam dhe raha hai.
...
Humari is disha mein gathi dheemi bhale hee ho, par Humara kaam theek roop se zaari hai. Is naye rajya wa nayi jathi ko banane ke liye sirf bhakti reethi se hee kaam na chal sakega. Iske liye vishesh prakaar ka prabandh, vishesh prakaar ka manav charitra, aur vishesh prakaar ka vyavhaar shasak aur shasith ke madhya avashyak hai. In baathon ke liye raajniti avashyak hai ....”

---- Param Guru Huzur Lal Saheb Ji.

Its simple translation into English may be rendered as follows:

“It is often asked that when Orders to completely eschew politics prevail in the Radhasoami Religion, why we are made to pray to the Lord in the morning Satsang every day to Teach us politics, as in
‘Rajniti sadh bhakti reethi, doyi Sikhayo humko.’
...
... a Bachan of Huzur Saheb Ji Maharaj was read out. This Bachan discussed the four causes for Mussolini’s success. The same factor exists in Satsang too. The fourth cause of Mussolini’s success was that he wanted to found a new race and a new empire. This trait is very significant for us because Satsang is also giving birth to a new nation and a new race.
...
Our pace in this direction may yet be slow, but Our work is continuing in the right manner. For the formation of this new nation and new race, the mere path of devotion will not suffice. For this, special arrangements, a special sort of character, and a special behavior between the administrators and the administered will be mandated. For these things, politics is necessary.”

Younger Satsangi Workers: Type Required.
****

“... Humko younger workers chahiyen. ... Waha Satsangi tandrusth hon, kaam karne mein hoshiyar hon, kabil hon. Unmein kaam karne ki imandaari ho aur kaam karne ka shauk ho. Wah disciplined bhee hon.”

---- Param Guru Huzur Lal Saheb Ji.

Its simple translation into English may be rendered as follows:

“... We require younger workers. ... These Satsangis should be healthy, expert at tasks, and competent. They should be honest in their work and ought to have enthusiasm for work. They should also be disciplined.”

Differences, Decision-making, and Wholehearted Cooperation.
****

“... Decision honey se pahle differences hone munasib hain, disagreement ho tho apni raay kayam karen wa express karen, doosron ki sunen, isse ek-doosre ke ideas clear ho jathe hain. Lekin ek martabe jab decision le liya gaya, tab wah sab ki raay ho jaana chahiye, aur phir baad mein khyal nahin hona chahiye ki main aisa nahin chahta tha.”

---- Param Guru Huzur Lal Saheb Ji.
****

Its simple translation into English may be rendered as follows:

“... Prior to the taking of a decision, the existence of differences is natural. When differences exist, state your opinion, listen to what others say, this leads to one another’s ideas getting clearer. However, once a decision has been taken, then it should become the resolve of everyone, and then later on nobody should think that {she or} he had not wanted it that way.”

Satsangis: Live as Dayalbagh’s Representatives!
****

“Dayalbagh ka ek pattern of life hai. Aap sab logon ke chehre par Dayalbagh ki chhap honi chahiye. Aap jahan bhee jayen, ... log kahen ‘Acha, aap Dayalbagh ke hain!’ Yeh bahut zaruri cheez hai.”

---- Param Guru Huzur Lal Saheb Ji.
****

Its simple translation into English may be rendered as follows:

“Dayalbagh has its own distinctive pattern of life. The stamp of Dayalbagh should be obvious on the faces of all of you. Wherever you go, ... people should remark ‘Oh, you are from Dayalbagh!’ This is a very important thing.”
