marypic-smallGobind Sadan is my home, and to me and many who visit here, it seems like paradise. It is a unique farming and devotional community on the southern outskirts of New Delhi, India. Gobind Sadan—which means “The House of God”—grew up organically around the tremendously powerful spiritual teacher, Baba Virsa Singh Ji. He left his physical body on December 24, 2007, but he is quite present with us and continuing to manage everything. He has probably been our beloved teacher for many lifetimes. We call him “Maharaj,” “The Great King.”

Early in the morning, go deep inside, concentrating all your awareness on God. Then the whole day your mind will be focused on God. Nothing will bother you.
