Clear Your Mind Before Setting Down | Repetition of the Five Holy Name SIMRAM

EXCERPTS FROM SARDAR BAHADUR JAGAT SINGH MAHARAJS

Letter to seekers and disciples 1948 – 1951

47. Ups and down in business and in most things in life are natural, but worry never help any body. The proper thing is to handle the situation in the light of your experience and worldly wisdom and with faith and hope.

BEFORE SETTING DOWN, CLEAR YOUR MIND OF ALL THOUGHTS, THEN DO YOUR SIMRAM (REPETITION OF THE FIVE HOLY NAME) with love and faith.

49. A very slow process, except in the case of those who have trodden the path in a previous incarnation.

50. The real appreciation come when one is able to vacate the body, “go in” and contact Nam.
When you devote yourself to Meditation and Nam, these things will come automatically.

51. Physically pain is compelling and disturbing, no doubt, but the habit of Simram at the eye center make you indifferent to pain to a very great extent.

For you have not yet developed that power and it would only scatter what little you have get. However, you may draw their attention to spiritual realities and spiritual comforts, and render whatever physical service is possible.

52. When the concentration is complete, the sound will come of itself. the function of sound is to pull the soul up. The sound cannot pull it up unless the attention has been withdrawn from the entire body by means of Repetition, just as a magnet cannot attract a piece of iron which is lying been its magnetic field. It is the function of SIMRAM (Repetition of five Holy Names) to bring about the stillness and concentrating of mind. Repetition should be performed while the attention is fixed at the eye center.

Our spiritual Journey begins from toes of the feet and ends at the crown of the head. We come up to the yes via Simram. From we travel to the fifth stage, at the top of the head, with the help of Sound Current.

Repetition of the Holy Names | Eye Focus

EXCERPTS FROM SARDAR BAHADUR JAGAT SINGH MAHARAJS

Letter to seekers and disciples 1948 – 1951

5. Man is the top of all creation, the perfect handiwork of Nature in all respects. He contains within himself the key to unlock the Mystery of the Universe and to control the creator.

Having come up to the top of the evolutionary ladder, he should now step onto the Ladder of NAM and tread the spiritual path that will untimately lead him to the DIVINE HOME whence he come, if he fails to do so, he slide down and according to his karmas, his desires inclination, he will have to sojourn in this world of change.

In the humand body, the EYE CENTER is the spot which represent the end of one course and the beginning of the other.

6. The first step toward spiritual practice is to undrstand the object of hearing the shabd. The function of shab is to lift the soul upward and inward, to the higher planes. But shabd is unable to lift the soul so long as it is not withdrawn from the entire body and collect in the eye focus. Just as a fine piece of cloth, with entangled in a thorny bust, is torn shreds if one tries to pull it up forcibly, without first disengaging it from each thorn, similarly the SHABD would not lift the soul up so long as it is permeatin every pore of the body, though the sound may be audible.

Therfore, the first step is to withdraw the attention currents from the body up to the point where the sound can lift it this is brought about by concentration of the attention in the eye center, which is possible only when the mind become motionless. There are various methods for making the mind motionless and collecting the attention currents in the eye. But the simplest and the easiest of them all is the REPETITION OF THE HOLY NAMES prescribed by the saints while the attention is fixed between the eye. In fact it is the mind that does the repeating.

It is not an easy matter to bring the mind under control and make it tranquil and motionless. it requires year of patient labor. When concentration is complete and the soul current have been withdrawn up to the eye center, the attention should be kept up there with the help of DHYAN, which is contemplation of the radiant form of the master.

7. The attention currents should be collected into the EYE FOCUS. The attention should be fixed at the place between and above the eye, where one ordinarily keeps the attention when thinking. The bell sound does not lift the soul until the attention currents from the entire body have been collected in the EYE FOCUS.
