Quotes
from Kirpal
"God
is love, love is God, and the way back to God is also love."
"Why
don't you live your life so truthfully, so purely, and so lovingly that
people come to you and ask, 'Who is your teacher?'"
"Kind
hearts are the gardens. Kind thoughts are the roots. Kind words are
the blossoms. Kind deeds are the fruits."
"Before
becoming the friend of an elephant keeper, be sure you have room for
an elephant."
"There
is only one caste; the caste of humanity.
There is only one religion;
the religion of love.
There is only one Dharma;
the Dharma of truth.
There is only one God;
the omnipresent
the omniscient
the omnipotent.
There is only one language;
the language of the heart."

 About
Kirpal
Kirpal
Singh was considered by many people who met him in the East and
in the West to have been a living example of a true Saint of spirituality.
Kirpal
was born in a rural setting in Sayyad Kasran in the Punjab (then
in India, now in Pakistan) on February 6, 1894. He followed the
career of a civil servant in the government of India, and retired
on his own pension in 1947.
Following
instructions from his Master (Sawan Singh Ji Maharaj, 1858-1948),
he founded and directed RUHANI SATSANG. He was Commissioned by
God and authorized by his Master to carry forward the spiritual
work of contacting sincere seekers after God with the WORD (or
NAAM). He continued in that capacity until he left the earth plane
on August 21, 1974. Elected four times, consecutively, as President
of the World Fellowship of Religions, he upheld the truth that,
though the various religions are different schools of thought,
the Aim of all religions is One and the Same.
Kirpal
Singh visited the major cities in the United States on the occasions
of each of his three world tours: in 1955, in 1963-64, and again
in 1972, staying in this country for three months or more, each
time.
From
his intent study at the feet of Sawan Singh Ji Maharaj and from
his own personal inner experiences of a spiritual nature, Kirpal
Singh was eminently qualified to convey to sincere people everywhere
the importance of self knowledge and God realization. He was a
competent Master of Surat Shabd Yoga, The Yoga of Merging into
God Power through the Study of Inner Light and Sound.
