Let us continue with selections from Chapter 23 of the book “The Light of Kirpal,” by Sant Kirpal Singh Ji Maharaj (vegetarian), where He emphasizes the importance of gratitude and remembrance of God. Chapter 23 Keep Your Mind Occupied “Sant Kirpal Singh Ji’s disciple remarks: The thing I don’t understand is . . . I feel the Master Power sometimes on the subway and places like that, and then in my meditations, I don’t. Sant Kirpal Singh Ji explains: In meditation, you sit, cut off from all outside. Power is working, that’s right. Sometimes you see that Power is working, but if you sit in meditation, you’ll go up. His disciple questions: But why is it that I feel It in the most unlikely places, the presence of the Master Power. Sant Kirpal Singh Ji confirms: That’s all right. . . That saves you if your attention is directed to That; you won’t be affected by outward environments. Just as in an air-conditioned room, you won’t have the effect of the outer influences. […] His disciple asks: Master, how can we comprehend Your love? Sant Kirpal Singh Ji responds: Have you got love for anybody? A brother or anybody? His disciple answers: You. Sant Kirpal Singh Ji clarifies: No, no, that comes next. I’m talking about in the world. How do you develop that? By constant remembrance, being constantly in touch. So to be in constant sweet remembrance sprouts forth into love. Again, where there is love, there is constant remembrance. You have to develop love in this way. The same rule applies here, too, you see. This is one way. The most effective way is to come in contact with or enjoy His presence. Once you have enjoyed somebody, then naturally his sweet remembrance will go on. […] The love of the soul should be with the Over-Soul. Love is within you. By inversion, you come in contact with Him. When the Master gives you contact with Him, you have to develop from day to day. The more you put in, the better. When the seed is planted, water it daily, regularly; regularity pays. Also, sweet remembrance. […] Keep your mind engaged in, I might use the word, ‘pure pursuits.’ Pure pursuits, not sensuous. That will help in your occupation, and you’ll have better results. Everybody should go on progressing. If you do not go on progressing, there is something wrong somewhere, and what electricity you get is earthed [grounded]. If you live only a month or two like that, you’ll change. […]”
