Babaji was born in 1494, in Sultanpur Lodhi, District Kapurthala, Punjab. He entered the world laughing and the room was filled with light and fragrance. A thin layer of ashes covered his body and the small curly knots of his hair shone brightly. He was no ordinary son, though he literally worshipped his father. He was a yogi from birth, his right ear lobe extended into a natural ring. Many consider him an incarnation of Lord Shivji. From childhood he loved to sit in meditation and developed great powers.

 

 

 

 

Once he wandered into the jungle. When the town’s people searched for him fearing he’d be harmed, they found the child deep in meditation surrounded by elephants, tigers, and leopards and other wild animals sitting motionless with eyes closed.

“Keep growing in love for your Master. Do not look to this side or that or even at the path ahead, because people will always be criticizing you.”

Baba Virsa Singh

“Trees do not wear crosses, but the great spiritual beings see God in trees. Water has no symbols, but Guru Gobind Singh says, ‘My God is in water.”

Baba Virsa Singh JI

"We do spiritual practices to gradually prepare the way for enlightenment. It does not come immediately."

Baba Virsa Singh JI

"Management does not change things. It is God who changes people."

Baba Virsa Singh JI

"Our mind is not controlled. It is a fire fed by wood from the whole world."

Baba Virsa Singh JI

Baba Virsa Singh JI

Baba Virsa Singh Ji
