Lead Me On, My Faith! {142.}

Radhasoami Dayal Ki Daya

Radhasoami Sahai

May Compassionate Radhasoami Shower His Grace

May Radhasoami Help

****

Radhasoami!

****

I know nought of God

for all my years and decades

of earnest, solitary striving.

All I possess of God

is but my sincere faith.

So, lead me on,

my genuine quest,

my deep longing,

my intense yearning,

to my Supreme Parent Radhasoami Dayal!

This is the best and most

that any devotee remains capable of.

Radhasoami!

Praying for Instant Salvation, Lord. {107.}

Radhasoami!

The following Paath {or hymn} lines,
from the holy Sar Bachan {Nazm}
Mercifully Penned by our August Founder,
have always meant immensely to me:

“Ab tho man kar chuka pukaar /
Radhasoami, Karo udhhaar.”

That is,
“The heart has now cried out,
Radhasoami, Redeem me.”

I find the use of the word
‘ab’ {or ‘now’} to be especially significant.

It appears to hide within it
untold striving, agonies, realizations.

So that finally, the heart
beseeches the Lord for salvation.

Well, much as this might seem
to be denying or escaping life,
that’s what the essence and import
of Radhasoami religion is all about.

This perishable world is to be quit,
life is to come to an end,
and the soul is to merrily
retrace its path to its
original, blissful and eternal Paradise.

Radhasoami!

Radhasoami Religion is about Death. {106.}

****
Radhasoami!

This world is not real.

Life is brief, and merely
an opportunity to attain salvation.

The meaning and purpose of life
stem from but its eventual cessation.

This may sound strange,
but is nevertheless true.

It is the deserving soul
that early, clearly and seriously
dedicates itself to achieving redemption.

Meditation in the prescribed manner,
helped by the Guru’s Grace,
can enable any sincere devotee
to experience death during meditation,
to transcend and master death.

Death naturally loses its sting
for such a blessed devotee.

One realizes what reality is,
and knows that one has
attained a paradise that’s
glorious, blissful and eternal.

Radhasoami!
