Collection of great sayings by Param Pujya Asaramji Bapu

Throughout his long and illustrious life as a spiritual guru and leader of the masses and in that role has spread the message of love, peace and among us. His words are precious because they emanate from the deepest recess of the hearts of enlightened saints. Here is a collection of a few precious spiritual gems that Bapu has delivered in the last several decades.

   Knowledge of Salvation

   If a man wants to attain salvation in this very life, he must do the work of thousands of years in a single life. He will need to move much faster than time. One experiences praise and insult, ‘mine’ and ‘yours’, good and bad in a dream. But once he is awake, they all cease to exist. Likewise, one has to experience the non-existence of the world in the waking state. Once you come to realize and understand this, you have accomplished the work of thousands of years. The petty samskaras of thousands of years, the illusion of ‘mine’ and ‘yours’ will all be obliterated once you find a saint who can instil this knowledge in you.

   Love thyself before loving others

   When a person becomes a lover of his true self, the worries regarding livelihood, thoughts about women and the painful memories of enemies cease to exist.

   Essential reality of self

   The moment you stop seeking pleasure in worldly things and become a true master of yourself, you will experience the essential reality of the Self. Then you will no longer have to seek God. God himself will come to you. This is the Divine law.

   Secret of happiness

   The secret of happiness lies in realizing the fact that the more you pursue worldly objects, the more distant they become. The more you become detached from desires, the more you become free from the need of such objects and in addition, these objects will therefore follow you themselves.

Our Pujya Sant Shree AsaramJi Bapu has also said: "I am the light of the world. My luminous nature pervades all objects.’ Constantly reflect on such thoughts. Such reflection will make you supremely pious."

Every divine word spoken by BapuJi instils spiritual, mental and spiritual bliss in us; we hope these divine words will most certainly flood your life with supreme contentment.
