Bhajans from Oosterhout
The only longing is the dust of the holy feet of the Satya Guru. All desires for heavenly pleasures, riches, and even liberation are rejected. Liberation itself is but a servant at those lotus feet. Meeting the real Satya Guru annihilates all mental confusions. False knowledge from countless guides is removed. The Guru reveals the real truth. The true inner nature is discovered within. In the heart, God is met. The flame of the individual soul merges into the cosmic flame. Like fragrance permeating a blossom, the eternal truth fills every heart. All doubts dissolve, and all karmas are destroyed. Inside everything abides one eternal truth; external appearances are merely its forms. The prayer arises: “Satya Guru, show the real, indescribable Purusha.” The Guru’s word is not mere words; it encompasses all. The realized one, intoxicated by the sadguru’s name, is deep as the sky, sweet as nectar, cool as the ocean. Such a one has no desires in the three worlds. Such a one sees diamond and stone as equal, has no fear, and remains unmovable in life and death.
"He does not look at castes, and he does not look at status. For him, diamond and stones are the same."
"This divine traveler is a hero among the greatest heroes."

Dharma and Karma
Yoga is the eternal path to self-realization, a source of endless knowledge beyond mere postures. The universal Self, or light of God, dwells within all beings, yet we are blinded by illusion. Human life aims to return to this origin, guided by dharma and bound by karma. Education from parents teaches spiritual principles, while worldly knowledge is far from the divine light. Space and consciousness are balanced in perfect oneness through yoga. Our duty is to help others and all creatures, for harming them is harming the light within them. Purification comes through discipline, meditation, and sattvic food, awakening the dormant energies within.
"Yoga is like a forever milky cow. Every day it gives you new milk, fresh milk."
"If you see yourself in everyone, this is the first step of self-realization."

Aim of the Master
The living transmission of knowledge requires a master, a disciple, and the spoken wisdom. A technique dies if not passed on. The master aims to make the disciple a master, surpassing the philosopher's stone which only transforms. Good qualities must be transmitted to be perfected. This process is defined by Śruti, Śrotriya, and Śrota. Śruti is the authentic scripture. The Śrotriya is the master who understands and explains it. The Śrota is the listening disciple. Without this chain, knowledge is lost. Reading a book differs from learning from a realized teacher. The transmission must be accurate to become Smṛti, or remembered tradition. This system upgrades spiritual understanding. What you receive, you must give. This protects and elevates all.
"Śruti is that which is taught by the Master."
"A Satguru is one who is Brahmaniṣṭha—a knower, a realizer of Brahman. He is the Śrotriya who can speak about Brahman."
