A Spiritual Path of Love (Bhakti) by Baba Ram Singh

SANT MAT IS A PATH OF LOVE AND AFFECTION. The soul is a form of love. The Master is also love. Even God Almighty is love and the Path to get connected to God Almighty is also love.

There is only one love that we have. Now, love is not multidirectional — it is only one love that we have. However, now we are faced with spirituality and our love and devotion for our Master and love for this world as well.

Today, our love is outwardly focused and we have our love and affection towards all outward worldly matters and our relationships. Now, this is not something that is only from this life. We have been living crores of lives like this and we have started loving all the outward things — for so many crores of lives — and that has become a habit. To now direct that love at the feet of the Master is difficult and that will happen slowly.

When we do our Simran, and we do more and more Simran, then that Simran causes the change of direction of that love to go within. And, as we do more and more Simran and we go within and we manifest the Form of the Master, there we develop our true love and affection and faith in the Master. Then we have completely moved our love to His feet from the outside world.

Therefore, we should make it a habit to do Simran. When we are cooking our food or even doing any other activity, we should try to do as much Simran as possible because, by doing Simran, we will start getting focused within.

When we manifest the Form of the Master within and we see the Radiant Form within then, automatically, our love and affection for the Master and full faith in the Master develops. And then, whatever we have heard in the Banis of the Saints, we understand their true meaning. And that love manifests within.
