"JAL PARMANE MACHHARI, KUL PARMANE BUDDHI.

JAISA JAKO GURU MILA, TAISI TAKI SUDDHI."

A fish's existence depends on the water it lives in. The family, one is born into, determines one's way of thinking. A devotee's understanding depends upon the Master he gets.

JO JAN PARAKHE SADH KO, TAKA MATA AGADH."

"VIDHI HARI HARMAY VED PRAN SO. AGUN ANUPAM GUN NIDHAN SO.

VED PURAN SANT MAT EHU. SAKAL SUKRITI PHAL NAM SANEHU.

MAHAMANTRA JOI JAPAT MAHESU. KASHI MUKTI HETU UPDESU."

Vedas, Puranas and all religious scriptures unanimously agree that the total fruits of all good deeds lie in the Name. Lord Shiva Himself remembered the Holy Name, which is indivisible and has neither beginning nor end, and revealed it in Benares for the sake of all mankind.

MAHAMOH TAM PUNJA, JASU VACHAN RAVI KAR NIKAR."

I prostrate at the lotus feet of the Spiritual Master, who is an ocean of compassion and God in human form. His Word acts like the sun in eradicating the darkness of ignorance caused by desires and attachment.

"NA TADBHASYATE SURYO NA SHASHANKO NA PAWAKAH.

YADGATWA NA NIVARTANTE TADDHAM PARAMAM MAM."

My heavenly abode is self-effulgent, where shines neither the light of sun, moon fire nor galaxies of stars. A being who reaches there does not come back in the cycle of birth and death.
