SUMMARY NOTES
- Old habits go away gradually even for Himalayan gurus/Yogis so every morning if you say thrice “I am
a holy soul, I am pure soul” for 45 days, you will become a soul.
- Millions of souls are connected to this mantra and this mantra has blessings of gurus in the
Himalayas.
- Meditation can lead to a state where nothing more is needed. Meditate with this mantra for 45 days
with full feeling. Then you will stay as a soul the whole day and qualities of pure & holy soul will start
inculcating in you.
- From tomorrow your test will start, so remember that you are not what you were anymore. It is very
important that you do not put chit on others, this will automatically take you inwards and you will
start knowing yourself.
- All meditators are connected at soul level with Guruji.
- All meditators find Samarpan family members (fellow meditators) everywhere they travel on the
Globe – it is a universal practice.
- Ego is very subtle so be very cautious. Go inward, meditate regularly and the ego will melt on its own.
Meditating yourself is very important for making chitt strong and meditating in collectivity is crucial
to learn to have control on chitt. This way your soul will become your Guru and that is peak of
spirituality.
- General one is either is thinking about past or future, so check every hour that are you in present, and
this way you will practice staying in present. Present moment is the doorway to spiritual experience
and true knowledge.
Guruji shared secrets of his spiritual growth:
- Keep chitt Pure: In all circumstances/surroundings keep your chitt clean, as it is the biggest treasure.
- Love everyone: irrespective of others behavior towards you, always keep harmony in relations, stay
balanced, do not let negativity enter you at all. Choose one person in life whom you can love
unconditionally and selflessly. If you are successful in doing that then you will be able to do this with
everyone. What you sow you reap, so when you give love, you will surely get this in return too.

45 DAYS ANUSHTHAN
From tomorrow start anushthan of 45 days:
- Sit for meditation daily without fail.
- Meditate at the same time and same place daily to help your spiritual growth.
- Write all problems on a paper and surrender it to paramatma with full faith (zero doubt).
- Experiment with these, you will not lose anything, but if you give 22.5hrs of your life to this practice
with full faith, then this can turn into a life-changing experience for you. Numerous practitioners have
already experienced it, so with an open heart and full faith experiment it.
- If you feel that even if you have been trying many things but failing in life, then for 45 days stop trying
anything. That way two things will happen: 1) you will become stable where you are 2) through
meditation you will connect with many all-round successful practitioners, and their energy will take you
up.
- This is hard for intellect to understand but have faith and see for yourself. Once you become balanced
through meditation then your actions will also be balanced leading to a balanced life.
COVID TIMES GUIDANCE
- In these peculiar times, there is another benefit of practicing meditation, it leads to thoughtlessness
and that increases immunity & strength.
- Vibrate water before drinking which has been proven by science as Water therapy. Keep the water in a
vessel while meditating, then pray for healing and immunity, then drink this water the whole day. You
can share this with people around who are impacted and are receptive.

RECAP OF 8-DAYS DISCOURSE:
- Paramatma is the universal energy, which is omnipresent and omnipotent, the time body consciousness
is dissolved, we become one with paramatma.
- Vibrations are everywhere but our receptivity needs to increase, and staying with good collectivity is the
beautiful way to become more receptive
- Belief in medium (Guru) as Paramatma itself leads to spiritual progress
- Religion is a way of worshiping, human religion is the only one which is “Humanity”.
- The worship method can be different, but spiritual experiences are the same as each one is a soul, part
of Paramatma and each one can learn to live in soul consciousness - we all are ONE and SAME!
- Practicing meditation will awaken Humanity from inside, leading to knowledge of discernment.
- Guru is a medium of soul collectivity, so when one soul has pure intentions of awakening, then self-
realization/self-knowledge happens in the vicinity of a Guru.
- “Not doing anything” is simplest definition of meditation
- Meditate regularly for 30mins for 45 days minimum, even if you go in meditative state or not, your duty
is only to sit, so donate 30mins of your day to Guru.
- When you will sit for meditation, body, mind, and intellect will resist, but you keep your promise, sit as
a witness (detached/without involvement) and overtime all these faculties will organically come under
control.
- Thoughts leaving is part of cleansing and chitt is the power of Paramatma which will dissolve it and you
will start having a good meditative state.
- Samarpan Meditation is not pertaining to any specific caste or religion, it is for everyone.
