SPIRITUAL SPARKS
(SAYINGS OF BABA AVTAR SINGH JI)

"I"

 

ILLUMINED, IGNORANT
Apparently, the ignorant and illumined are alike. However, God is a closed book for the former but an open one for the latter.

 

ILLUSIONS, DELUSIONS
Man seeks Light, in vain, in hills, caves, holy places, holy rivers, woods, graveyards, etc. it is nothing but an illusion.

As one departs, riches shall part. Without the Light of the Lord, one’s possessions are only illusions.

Human mind has been clouded by delusions. That is why man dances to the discordant tunes of different castes and religions.

Delusion devours its own devotees just as a she-snake devours her offspring.

Our youthful bloom and form are mere moonshine (delusion), not things to be proud of. If we are enamoured of these, we shall miss gold for dust.

 

IMMORTAL
One can become immortal by identifying oneself with the immortal.

 

IRONY
What an irony that those, who claim themselves to be the followers of the Great Master, do not live up to their teachings.

Ironically enough, those, who dedicated themselves to human redemption, were maligned and persecuted.
