PRECIOUS PEARLS
(SAYINGS OF BABA GURBACHAN SINGH JI)

"B"

 

BEATEN TRACK
In mundane matters, we often do not follow our ancestors. While our forefathers walked on foot or rode horses, we now travel by trains and aeroplanes. However, in the religious realm, we generally follow the beaten track of rites and rituals and do not try to discover and imbibe the ultimate and eternal Truth.

 

BELIEF: MEN MERE MEDIUM
Saints and devotees believe that God works through men, who are just a medium.

 

BELIEF: TRUE
One should see and then believe.

 

BENEVOLENCE
If out of benevolence, a rich person adopts an orphan, the latter turns rich overnight. Likewise, even a benevolent glance of a saint transforms one's destiny.

 

BEST LANGUAGE
The language is a means of communication. The best language, however, is that of love and affection.

 

BLESSED
The past saints and sages also taught how we can achieve the prime aim of life. Many listened, but only a few believed and acted on what they said and were blessed.

 

BLIND AND DEAF
Those who have shut their eyes and ears to the message of the True Master of the day, are themselves responsible for their suffering.
