This afternoon, Sant Rajinder Singh Ji Maharaj delivered his Sunday discourse at Kirpal Bagh, focusing on the need for a spiritual guide on our journey Godward.

Our soul has been separated from its Source for eons. It has been given this human body so that it can find its way back to God. However, it is only when we come to a spiritual adept who has mastered the inner journey that we can begin our own spiritual journey, which culminates in the soul’s reunion with the Oversoul.

By teaching us the technique of meditation on the inner Light and Sound of God, a spiritual guide helps us have a direct experience of God’s love. Further, by giving us a blueprint for how to lead loving, nonviolent, truthful, and compassionate lives, in which we are of service to God’s creation, a spiritual Master helps us unburden our soul so that it may soar back to God.
