Spiritual Talks

Building on the general introduction from the previous episode, Dr. Harbhajan Singh now offers a clear and straightforward explanation of the heavenly Light mentioned in the holy scriptures. Since the same divine Power worked through the various Masters at different times, a comparative study of these scriptures reveals a consistent underlying message. They serve as a touchstone for discerning true teachings from false ones. At the same time, they inspire us to seek guidance in realizing this goal for ourselves—freely and without cost—just like the other gifts of nature, such as the sun and water.This is the second part of a lecture recorded on 30 June 1994 in Regensburg, Germany. Additional Links:Book: Spirituality - What it is? - Kirpal SinghBook: Crown of Life - Kirpal Singh

The holy scriptures contain descriptions of the experiences of the competent Masters of the past. In this episode, Dr. Harbhjan Singh explains that on the path of spirituality, their experience must become our own experience. He contrasts this with other paths that may appear similar on the surface but draw one's attention within the three worlds (physical, astral, causal) and may cause various further problems.Before coming to the main subject, he gives answers to the basic questions: What is the purpose of human life? Who are we? Where do we come from? How did we come into this world?This is the first part of a lecture that was recorded on 30th June 1994 in Regensburg, Germany.Additional Links:Book: Spirituality - What it is? - Kirpal SinghBook: Crown of Life - Kirpal Singh

God is consciousness, bliss and everlasting joy. We, the soul, are a part of Him. So all happiness and joy are hidden within us. As long as we seek this happiness inperishable things, which are not permanent, we will never be contented. Sant Kirpal Singh explains that to get in contact with the inner happiness, three preparatory steps are needed.The lecture was held on 19th January 1964 in Washington, DC, USA.Additional Links:⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Unity of Man⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Kirpal Sagar⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Kirpal Singh Teachings⁠⁠⁠For further information or feedback, visit our website⁠⁠⁠ ⁠www.unity-of-man.org⁠⁠⁠⁠ or write an email to ⁠⁠⁠⁠podcast@unity-of-man.org⁠⁠⁠⁠.

The great Saints always address us as ‘children of light’. Why are we no more aware of that light? Our soul has identified with the body, and our attention, the outward expression of the soul, is flowing out through the senses. We have become a 'jiva', a soul that is under the control of the mind. Sant Kirpal Singh explains how our soul can be unchained and connected with the light of God and the music of the spheres, the two aspects of the God-into-expression Power.The lecture was held on 19th January 1964 in Washington, DC, USA.Additional Links:⁠⁠⁠⁠Unity of Man⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Kirpal Sagar⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠⁠Kirpal Singh Teachings⁠⁠For further information or feedback, visit our website⁠⁠ ⁠www.unity-of-man.org⁠⁠⁠ or write an email to ⁠⁠⁠podcast@unity-of-man.org⁠⁠⁠.

Dr. Harbhajan Singh explains how we can transcend the limitations of mind and matter, emphasizing the soul’s real purpose and the necessity of returning to our divine source.

The end of the year is always a good time to retrospect and make good resolutions for the new year. Sant Kirpal Singh encourages his followers to re-new their efforts to achieve the goal of self-realisation and God-realisation. He highlights the main points of the teachings as given out by all great Masters and, like Christ, summarizes the required conduct as having love of God and love of mankind.

If one realizes how the soul is connected to the Godpower within, the angle of vision changes. Then one lives in a spirit of detachment and will focus on returning to the home eternal. Despite love being a subject beyond words, there are some examples of worldly lovers who can inspire us to reach out for a life in love for God. The lecture was held on 15th October 1989 in St. Gilgen, Austria.

God is love and love is God and the way back to God is also love. Love is the essence of life. It is not enough to talk about love, we must embody it in our lives, beginning in our own homes. In the family we can develop each other by cultivating spiritual values and leading a disciplined and truthful life. This will draw all closer to the inner source of divine love. To lead a spiritual life we do not have to separate ourselves from the world like a monk or follow some new tradition, but have an inner detachment. This can be compared to a boat, which is in the water, but water does not enter the boat. The lecture was recorded on 28th July 1991 in St. Gilgen, Austria.Additional Links: ⁠⁠⁠⁠Unity of Man⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Kirpal Sagar⁠⁠⁠⁠ ⁠⁠⁠⁠Kirpal Singh Teachings⁠⁠For further information or feedback, visit our website⁠ ⁠www.unity-of-man.org⁠⁠ or write an email to ⁠⁠podcast@unity-of-man.org⁠⁠.

Explaining love is difficult, and it is even harder to talk about love for God. Dr. Harbhajan Singh is able to do so, and speaks about the love for God who is within us, and also for his great teacher, his Master Sant Kirpal Singh. The term “Master” refers to the “Masterpower,” which is also called “the Word.” This Word is hidden inside all of us and sustains the entire creation. A perfect Master is one with the Word; he embodies it. This power radiates from him in the form of love, reaching from his soul to ours. This kind of love is different from what we are used to — it is limitless and selfless. People who have experienced it often compare it to the effects of wine, but instead of dulling our consciousness, it awakens our inner self.

The Path in the Middle In this episode, Dr. Harbhajan Singh explains the journey of the soul to its eternal home. He provides advice for the road to be travelled and warns of the pitfalls. With multiple references to the teaching of Christ, he shows that spirituality is not something new but an age-old science that just needs to be re-discovered. “When the barriers are finished, there is the 10th gate.” The lecture was recorded on 8th July 1990 in St. Gilgen, Austria.

The lecture was recorded on 31st October 1967 in Delhi, India In this episode, Sant Kirpal Singh speaks about the nature of our soul and whom we should love. Our soul shares the same essence as that of God – it is called consciousness. Instead of being constantly attached to our relatives, friends, work, society, nation, or opinions, we should connect with our divine source. Sticking to our limited circle makes us narrow-minded. When our love expands to embrace an all-conscious and all-pervading God, we will have respect and true love for everyone. In this way, the solution to today’s political and social problems begins at the individual level with the development of personal consciousness. This will bring hope for peace on earth. This is one of several talks given by Sant Kirpal Singh in the mornings in Delhi between 1967 and 1968. Even though the sound quality is not very high, these talks are of great value because they give many practical hints that help us progress spiritually.
