Shri HansJi Maharaj

Devotion is the path which washes away all sins. Devotion should be free of external showing-off, pride and ego and should be selfless. Only then does it become meaningful. But who reveals the path of such devotion? the living Satguru.

"SUNE RI MAINE NIRBAL KE BAL RAM.

JAB LAGI GAJ BAL APNO BARATYO,

NEK SARAYO NAHIN KAM.

NIRBAL HOY HARI NAM PUKARYO,

AYO ADHO NAM."

God is far away from those who are vain about their education, wealth, livestock and physical strength. God belongs to the helpless. So long as the king of elephants was proud of his physical strength and relied on it to free himself from the clutches of an alligator, God did not protect him but when, helpless and forlorn, he called on the Name, then instantaneously God came and protected him.
