Bhajan evening in Jadan Ashram
The light that upholds the universe is the Guru, the cause of crossing life's ocean. You are that light, upholding divine honor. Meeting the Lord is the greatest honor, sanctifying life through endless cycles. The Guru bestows the jewel of the Supreme Sovereign. Practice Japa and remain absorbed in meditation on the Self to attain Nirvāṇa. Applying yourself to meditation destroys the sorrows of birth. All desired tasks are accomplished, and life becomes successful. For a moment's Darśana, one studies for hundreds of births; the Guru strengthens faith, and the devotee swiftly crosses the ocean of existence.
"If you practice Japa, remain absorbed in meditation on the Self, you will attain the state of Nirvāṇa."
"For the sake of a moment's Darśana, one studies scriptures and sūtras for hundreds of births."
