Guru’s All-important Permission and Orders.
****

‘“Guru Aagya se jo shish karayi,
Waha karthoot bhakti phal dheyi.’
Satguru ki Aagya maanne ki badi bhaari mahima hai. Jisne aagya Guru ki maani, usi waqt se ussey parmarthi daulath milne lagegi.”

---- Param Guru Maharaj Saheb Ji; Bachan Part II, No. 111, Page 110.
****

Its simple translation into English may be rendered as follows:
‘“Whatever the disciple does with the Master’s Permission,
That deed rewards with spiritual benefit.’
Obedience to the Orders of the Satguru is of utmost significance. Whoever obeys the Lord’s Instructions begins to acquire spiritual wealth right from that very moment.”

Perspective on Sin & Virtue.
****

“... Magar kisi kaam ka sinful {paaproop} ya virtuous {punyaroop} hona Khuda ke sambandh mein samajhna chahiye. Jis baath se Khuda Khush ho, wah punyaroop hai aur jisse Wah Nakhush ho, paaproop hai.... Satsangiyon ko yeh privilege {visheshadhikaar} hai ki Sant Satguru se dariyafth kar sakte hain ki Kul Maalik ko kya pasand ya napasand hai. Iske muthabik karawayi karni chahiye. Sar Bachan mein Kaha hua hai:
“Guru Aagya se jo shish karayi, so karthuth bhakti phal deyi.”
Paanch baathen karne ke liye Hidayath hai:
{1} Sumiran, {2} Dhyan, {3} Bhajan, {4} Seva, {5} Satsang.
Darasal yeh paanchon baathen ek hee cheez hain....”

---- Param Guru Huzur Saheb Ji Maharaj; Bachan Bhag I, Bachan No. 147, Page 404.

Its simple translation into English may be rendered as follows:

“... But we should construe an act as being sinful or virtuous in the context of God. If something pleases God, it is virtuous and what displeases Him, is a sin.... Satsangis have the privilege of being able to enquire from the Grand Master regarding what the Supreme Lord Likes and Dislikes. One should act by this. It says in the {holy} Sar Bachan:
“Whatever the disciple does with the Guru’s Permission, that deed gives one spiritual fruition.”
Five performances have been decreed:
{1} Sumiran, {2} Contemplation, {3} Meditation, {4} Seva, {5} Satsang.
Actually, all these five things are the same....”
