NAVRATRI CELEBRATIONS 2021

Dear Sangat,

Since Covid virus has almost disappeared from Delhi by the grace of God, Gobind Sadan was able to celebrate Navratri (the nine-day festival of the Goddess, in Her many forms) with full joy in two places. The families of gardeners and labourers were delighted to be able to sing to Mataji every evening at Her mandir and to read the whole Ramayana aloud in shifts during the final 24 hours. Then with the help of Pandit Gokul, they did havan and concluding rituals in praise of Mataji. Together they then prepared and served langar for the whole sangat.

In Maharaj ji’s havan, Hardip Singh and Ranvir Singh Khanna carried on the rituals for nine days with the help of Pandit Mishra. They were joined by the sangat on the final day—14 October 2021—for a big havan and traditional rituals.

 

"God will give power to those who have love in their hearts, and a sweet tongue. A person who speaks of peace but has sword in hand—That Water will inevitably come to wash him away."

Baba Virsa Singh JI

The university is one. The Vice Chancellor is one. How can the teaching be different, though in different languages?

Baba Virsa Singh Ji

Our mind is sick and weak, but we are looking for cures for the body.

That seed which you sow in the early morning will keep bearing fruit.

“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

"Think that everything in this world exists with God’s blessings, whether we regard it as pleasant or unpleasant."

Baba Virsa Singh JI

"First look within yourself, and then you will see God everywhere."

Baba Virsa Singh JI

"If we keep faith and love in difficulties, and pray for those who abuse us, we will always remain happy & free."

Baba Virsa Singh Ji
