Sacred Bhandara: Recalling Guru Bachans {37.}

Sacred Bhandara: Recalling Guru Bachans {37.}
****
Radhasoami!
****

Upon Jewellery Worn by Satsangis.
****

Auraton ke zewar ke baare mein Farmaya ki zewar kam az aur zaruriyath asahad {bahut zyada zarurath} ke mutabik hona chahiye thaki uske khoye jaane se ranj wa fikr ka mauka kam az kam raha jaave aur uske muthallik moha aur lobha ka ang bhee kat jaave.”

---- Param Guru Huzur Saheb Ji Maharaj; Bachan, Bhag I, No. 15, Page 313.

Its simple translation into English may be rendered as follows:

“Regarding the jewellery worn by women, Observed that the jewellery should be the minimal possible and only the least that might be required so that one remains free from the anxiety and sorrow of its loss, and one also hinders the development of attachment or greed towards it.”

Radhasoami!

Earnest Prayer to Radhasoami Dayal. {108.}

****
Radhasoami!

The Radhasoami religion teaches one
how to attain eternal bliss.

Satsangis ought to be shielded from sorrows,
and habitually bask in happiness.

Besides, I like good news,
even of others,
especially about Satsangis.

So, may Radhasoami Dayal Mercifully Accept
the following humble and sincere prayer
at His Lotus Feet from me:

Please Grant that I receive
only good news,
and preferably, very good news,
and even better good news,
about those who’re Your Own,
Your Chosen, Loved, and Beloved.

Let my living be interspersed with
such recurring, joyous, heartening good news.

Let the loneliness and barrenness
of my life be brightened,
with such soothing and satisfying good news.

Let this joy now become
my constant companion
until I achieve the eternal bliss
of final fusion in Your Being.

Radhasoami!

No Problem, Worry, Sorrow, Fear. {103.}

****

Radhasoami!

The human is a limited person,
shackled by various
imperfections and inadequacies.

However, let’s realize that
in the ultimate analysis,
there is no real cause for
any problem, worry, sorrow, or fear.

How can any problem exist
for the devotee, blessed recipient
of the Param Guru's Grace?

How can any devotee worry
knowing the Supreme Lord
Is Omniscient and Omnipotent?

How can any misery be
when the Guru showers bliss?

As the Paath {or hymn} lines affirm:
Guru adbhut sukh dikhlaya /
Kya mahima jaaye na gaaya
.”

That is.
“The Master has Granted me unique bliss /
I cannot even sing its glories.”

There need be no fear
for one Protected by the Param Guru.

So, laugh at your difficulties,
trusting in the Guru’s Grace and Help.

Life is a brief play;
let us make the best of it
with the Param Guru's Grace.

Radhasoami!
