The Sant Mat We Know Can Be Traced Back to Sant Dariya Sahib

Sant Tulsi Sahib of Hathras, India was born in 1763 and passed on in 1843. He would have been in his teens when Dariya Sahib of Bihar was still alive -- old enough to have perhaps received initiation from Dariya Sahib of Bihar or one of his representatives, in other words. Dariya was a towering figure occupying some of that space in history between the time of Kabir and that of Sant Tulsi Sahib of Hathras. Dariya passed on when Tulsi was around seventeen years of age. Dariya Sahib appointed several Saints to be his spiritual successors: Fakkar Das, Basti Das, Sant Tika Das, and, Sant Guna Das, also contemporaries with Tulsi Sahib, who likely spent some time in Bihar. Bihar was, and remains, home-base of the Satsang of Sant Dariya Sahib.

Sant Dariya Sahib: “Sat Purush is the living Lord, and His own son serves as the ladder. That ladder is continued through me, says Dariya. Fakkar Das, Basti Das, and Guna Das are the ladders proceeding from me. Whomsoever they appoint as their successors would also be known as ladders. Thus will my line of succession continue…. Those souls who remain in obedience to these successors, shall cross the Ocean of the world.

“How long will this line of succession continue? Kindly relate it to us in your own words, asks Fakkar Das. ‘Listen mindfully, 0 Fakkar Das, I explain this to you, says Dariya:

‘As long as the discipline of the Sound Current is preserved unadulterated, The line of succession will truly continue. But when it is mixed with outer rituals and display of external garbs, My Sound Current will part company. My Divine essence will depart, And the souls will go into the mouth of Kal. I shall then come to this world, And shall proclaim the teaching of the Sound Current again. Proclaiming the teaching, I shall found the line of succession [again]. And emancipating the souls, I shall take them to my Abode… For aeons I have been coming, And imparting the teaching of the true Sound Current.’”

"As you calm down, you can experience the Sound of Silence in the mind. You hear it as a kind of high frequency Sound, a ringing Sound that’s always there. It is just normally never noticed. Now when you begin to hear that Sound of Silence, it’s a sign of emptiness -- of silence of the mind. It’s something you can always turn to. As you concentrate on it and turn to it, it can make you quite peaceful and blissful. Meditating on that, you have a way of letting the conditions of the mind cease without suppressing them with another condition. Otherwise you just end up putting one condition over another." (Ajahn Sumedho)

"It is easiest to hear this Sound when it is quiet, particularly at night-time. Once you have identified this Sound, then you place your awareness on it without wavering. Resting your mind in the Sound, you continue to listen, going further and further into the Sound itself." (Dzogchen Ponlop Rinpoche)

In Divine Love, Light and Sound,

James Bean

The Human Body is the True Temple -- This Life is a Golden Opportunity for the Liberation of the Soul -- It Is Only A Very Few Fortunate Ones Who Get The Opportunity To Do Simran And Do Meditation, by Baba Ram Singh

"It is with the good karmas of tens of millions of years and lives that one gets a human life. And it is with the Grace of God Almighty that we get the company of the Saints and are able to do meditation. This body has been given by God Almighty and it is the only body where one can transcend from a human being to God Almighty Himself. It is not only flesh and blood, but it is a temple, which has been created by God Almighty. In this body, God Almighty has kept sixteen planes and He has kept the Path to go back to God Almighty within this body itself. If someone has got God Almighty, it is only within this six-foot temple. And, even in the future, if someone is going to go and meet God Almighty, it will be through this medium only. After we go through these 8.4 million life forms, God Almighty graces us with the small time-frame that we get in this human body. And He gives this so that we take this opportunity and get out of this cycle and go back and meet God Almighty." (Baba Ram Singh)

Rise Above Body-Consciousness in Meditation and See For Yourself

"How to know oneself? It is a matter not of the level of feelings or emotions or drawing inferences. It is purely a subject of self-analysis, knowing oneself and knowing God. Higher consciousness can only be experienced or risen into, I would say, if our own consciousness is first all devoid of all outer coverings. So it is a matter of pure self-analysis, how to rise above body-consciousness." (Sant Kirpal Singh)

"When we sit for our meditation, we do Simran and we do Dhyan, or we contemplate on the Form of the Master. When we do that, our karmas keep getting redeemed and, as our karmas are redeemed, our mind becomes more sublime. And, once the mind becomes sublime, it becomes still and we are able to focus at the Eye Center. When we do this regularly, one day, the attention of the soul gets focused at the Eye Center and we are able to leave this body. There, the Master Who has given you initiation is waiting for you there and you will get to meet Him there." (Baba Ram Singh)

"Saints come into this world and They enlighten us. They remind us of our True Home of God Almighty -- our True Father. They encourage us to go back. And They motivate us to go back. So, we are indeed fortunate to get this human body and get this life. And it is with the Grace of God Almighty that we have the company of the Masters. Now, we should make the most of that and follow the Teachings of the Masters and make the efforts to go back to our True Home." (Baba Ram Singh)

"Morning time is ideal for meditation. But anytime is good if we are sitting for meditation. So, the time is good. It is quiet and we should make the most of this and sit for meditation." (Baba Ram Singh)

“Prays Nanak, But for Society of the Saints, the whole world is false.” (Guru Nanak, Adi Granth)

“In the Guru-given Gnosis is contained the wealth of the Lord’s Name, and the Lord’s Name, the Guru imprints in the man’s mind.” (Manmohan Singh translation, Adi Granth)

“From the Guru is all Wisdom and one Dwells on the Quintessence (of the Real).

From the Guru one finds one’s Home, and the Lord’s Door, and the treasure-fuls of Worship.

Through the Guru, one Dwells upon the Lord’s Name, and (Knowing its Essence) Reflects upon it.

Through the Guru is the Devotee dedicated to the Lord’s Praise, and within him is Enshrined the Infinite Word.

Through the Guru is all Bliss: one comes not to Sorrow (through the Guru),

Through the Guru one stills one’s Ego, and one’s Mind becomes Pure.

Meeting the True Guru, one loses one’s self, and knows (the Reality of) the three worlds.

And one Sees the Lord’s Pure Light pervade all, and his Light Merges in God’s Light.

When the Perfect Guru instructs, one’s Mind becomes Sublime,

And from within, one is Cooled and Comforted: yea, through the Lord’s Name, one gathers Bliss.”

(Asa M. 3. Ashtapadis, Kafi, Gopal Singh translation, Volume Two, Adi Granth)

“Meet a Satguru and take his initiation. Surrender thine all and peep within.” (Guru Nanak, Gauri M1, Adi Granth)

The Sound Current, Shabd Naam According to the Guru Granth

"(Within me) rings the Unstruck Melody of the Lord’s flute, yea, He in whose presence one’s mind is attuned to the Sound (of the Inner Music)." (Sri Rag, Kabir)

"Seated in my higher mind, I live in communion with God and within me rings ever the Unstruck Music (of Bliss)." (Sri Rag Var, Shloka M. 3)

"He, the Lord, is immersed in the Unstruck Melody of the Word." (Asa, M. 1)

"He, our God, is the King of the whole Universe. And there (in His Presence) rings the Unstruck Melody (of Bliss)." (Sorath M. 5, Chaupadas)

"The Lord’s Name has no form, no sigh, and it becomes manifest through the Immaculate God as the Unstruck Melody." (Asa M. 1)
