Taken from notes of a discourse by Shri Mahant Deochan Dass,Preysal,Trinidad.August 26 1992 Please feel free to make add your questions or comments by clicking post a comment below. The story of Padmaanaabh: Padmanaabh, a great disciple met Satguru Kabir Saheb and prostrated himself at his feet, saying, "Oh Lord, true Guru, without beginning or end, I am a very sinful soul and it is by great fortune that I am in your company. Please make me a disciple of yours. Kabir Saheb recognized Padmanaabh's greatness. He told him to stay on a few days and he will give him the teachings. This is really the appropriate time. So, Padmanaabh decided to stay, leaving off all pride, name and fame. After some time, Padmanaabh became worthy of the teachings. Kabir Saheb gave him the secret of Sat Naam and all knowledge and Padmanaabh became his disciple. Padmanaabh began to exercise or practice repitition as his guru said, so much so, that he did not even take food or drink. To such a degree he practiced that not only his body, but his mind and everything about him became immersed in Sat Naam. He became the possessor of great power attaining many ridhis and sidhis.

Love and Faith

Sat, 01 Apr 2006 22:27:19 -0600

Does any one want to contribute their experiences on True Love and Faith. I have found that the teachings of Love and Truth and Faith which we attribute only to the saints is actually in all of us. Kabir Saheb teaches that if we simply stop our outward searching and judging of things and personalities and circumstances, and seek to keep our own self at peace, we will begin to experience a power within us that will lift our very spirit up and we will begin to realise God within our very being. Very soon we will begin to recognise and relate to others at that same level and they too will in turn begin to recognise that power within us and themselves. It really is "Sahaj" (simple) In fact, so simple that we have trouble believing it. But if we simply BELIEVE, and have faith then all will become clear. The teachings have always been the same, and I believe that we can all achieve it, whenever we decide we want to. Thanks for reading. Godspeed and All Love for all of us.

Questions from S Tanuja

Hello all I was browsing the web and came across your web site. Would like to enter this as an oline discussion: Does God really exist? How do we know? What causes a person to loose faith in God? We are talking about someone who had full faith in the Almighty and then has suddenly lost faith. How can this person start to repair this damage that has been inflicted upon his soul? How can you know for sure that Kabir Saheb is the One? Looking forward for your reply. Will look online for it. Thank you S. Tenuja

Whenever I speak with other women followers of kabir Saheb, their understandings of how to manage their married lives along with their spiritual and career lives are always mingled with confusion. Can you please shed some light on this issue?

(Comment By Saheb Deochan Dass 2/22/06) Please email or post your questions for Saheb on this sensitive issue. BS: Greetings and Best Wishes in the Guru's Holy Name. Kabir Sahib's main mission was to resolve differences of opinions and restate the objectives of human life for all mankind. His more popular history, records observations on the status of women in general and the Hindu and Muslim traditional way of life in particular...One popular opinion was, and still is, that men should lead a celebate life, and that this celebate tradition was superior to the conjugal. In the Great Master's view no one tradition is better than the other. The both systems have their ups and downs: "Dharai Toe Dou Bhalaa, Kyaa Girrahee Bairaag; Girrahee Daasaatan Karai, Bairaagee Anuraag." When you look at it carefully, the both systems have their good side: One caters for Salvation through a Wholesome Householder's Family; and the other caters for Salvation through Service to the World Family following a conduct of "True Detachment." The idea is that, on the one hand, the True Householder seeks Salvation through Service to the Guru and God by leading a wholesome householder's life totally dedicated to ...a worthy home, a wholesome family of good conduct (instructed by the Guru) and worthy progeny for souls entering the human fold. On the other hand, Salvation for the Celibate Renunciate does not require a single home or family. His home is the Earth and the world citizens are his Family. Salvation is achieved by service to mankind, whenever, wherever and however. The Guru's Code of Conduct should always apply. There are other issues where women were and, most probably, still are wrongly construed as being mere conveniences/inconveniences on the spiritual path: It has been reported that in one tradition there was the "Janeo Sanskaar", which was only for men....which the Great Master had issue with, so He granted Kanthees to both men and women. ..... And then, in the other tradition, there was the "Circumcision" only for men... Saheb could not understand why they did not offer the same sacrament to women.... He commented, "You have converted your men folk to Islam but what good have you served by leaving your women out? My own view is that it may be in those circumstances the women were o.k. and it was really the men who badly needed those sacraments. I take a good long look at mankind today and do not earnestly see a really good reason to change that view. Satguru Kabir Saheb and all Mystics agree that no one is entirely blameless, but the Lord Supreme is always loving and forgiving. So we just have to become like Him and we shall have nothing to worry about.

HAPPY VALENTINES !

KABIR SAHEB AND LOVE (By Mahant Deochan Dass SahebTrinidad) Please post you comments

Mon, 30 Jan 2006 14:02:36 -0600

LOVE: Kabir Saakhee (testamentary couplet of Kabir):- Pothi parh-parh jag muwaa, pandit bhayaa na koi, Dhaiee aksharr prem ka, parhe so pandit hoi. Kabir says: Reading the Holy Texts over and over again, the whole world has died and no one became a pandit (learned/wise one) because of it. Only the one who masters the two and a half letters of the word 'love/prem', becomes a pandit. In the Hindi language the word ' prem' is counted as being made up of two and a half letters. In the time of the conflict of Hindus and Muslims in fifteeth century India, with special reference to the arguments about their separate texts and the superiority of one over the other, Kabir taught them that Love was far greater than pages of paper and ink. People should attach more importance to the love for one another and love for the Creator rather than their pointless utterances from literature fashioned by men. Obviously, Kabir Saheb wants to tell us that the path of spirituality, of self realisation/god realisation, is not a matter of linguistics or of mastering scriptures of any religious texts or their import. He is inferring that without love all eruditism and scriptural linguistics (Hindu, Muslim or any other) are worthless. Master Darshan Singh indicated that God is Love and the way back to God is also Love.
