The Spiritual Science

Man has explored everything that can benefit him. He has explored rivers, mountains, food, medicines, and everything, so much so that a tiny little thing can even destroy the whole mankind. But he forgets to explore himself. He knows nothing about himself or about his soul. He never tried to reason the creations of God around him. How and who created this beautiful Universe? They have no answer to death, what happens when a small thing like (Soul) goes out from his body? All research ends there, everything fails. Spiritual science gives answers to all these questions.

It is where science ends and spiritualism begins. This is the supreme science. It is a science that reveals the secrets of the soul, God, and his creations.

Baba Jai Gurudev says that man is entangled in these creations only. He may obtain control over all worldly things but if he does not know his own soul, his whole life is useless. The whole world is in search of happiness and peace. In spite of everything, we don’t enjoy any peace because we are not connected to our spiritual source. When connected, everything becomes beautiful and peaceful. Man can meet the lord within himself regardless of any caste or creed.

Importance of a Guru

Spirituality is a difficult path and cannot be trodden without a Guru. While lucidly dealing with spiritualism in his highly elevated satsangs (discourses), Baba Jai Gurudev has always emphasized the importance of a Guru in one’s life. Right from the moment man is born his first Guru comes as his mother, who nurtures him to live in life. Then his second Guru comes as a teacher, who imparts all the physical and worldly knowledge which helps him to understand and earn the necessities of life. But for the very purpose for which he has taken birth in the human form, he does not bother to have a Guru who can reveal the truth and impart the real knowledge of his being.

Baba Jai Gurudev reveals that if the urge to have a spiritual Guru is intense and true then Guru comes in front of the disciple. In fact, the true and intense urge is rewarded by the Guru. “Guru appears when the disciple is ready”. Our spiritual aspirations are awakened when we are in contact with such a spiritual being. He is God personified in human form, who instigates the man to seek the real purpose of getting the valuable human form. He apprises him about the presence of God in every human body.

Saints teach that true Salvation (Salvation of the Soul) can be achieved while living in this world with the help of spiritual ways of – SURAT SHABAD NAAM YOG SADHNA. Man has a physical body that is served by worldly amenities; mind by his intellect, but the soul is usually neglected by him. When in contact with a perfect Guru and his teachings to elevate the soul, he gets nourishment for his Soul.

Only a Guru can connect man with the almighty. It is he who reveals the Secrets of reality. He comes to release us from the bondage of our minds and allurements of the world. The main purpose of the Saints, the perfect Master, the Guru is to make the human form follow the ways of Shabad for the upliftment of the soul. This is the only purpose of their manifestation in this world. Guru is the greatest gift of God to mankind. He is, in a sense, a pole from where God manifests himself amongst his people. He is a medium to God-realization. Without a Guru all our actions, observances and worships are fruitless and a waste. It is difficult to gain emancipation without opening the internal eye (Shiv Netra).
