Friday – Day 9

OM

**MESSAGES OF TRUTH**

Paramatma’ is Eternal. He existed in the past and exists today also; and He will continue to exist in the future too. Only if we live in present time, will we be able to meet the medium of Paramatma that exists ‘in present time’.

-Baba Swami

Saturday – Day 10

OM

**MESSAGES OF TRUTH**

‘Living mediums’ are like musk –filled closed boxes; and they can be recognised only by people who are knowledgeable about ‘musk’ (kasturi).

They never perish; they only ‘give up’ their physical body. After they pass away, the closed box opens and the entire atmosphere gets permeated with the fragrance of musk. And then, everyone feels attracted towards them.

-Baba Swami

Sunday – Day 11

OM

**MESSAGES OF TRUTH**

Only the present ‘moment’ is in your hands; and your ‘future’ is dependent only on that moment. Therefore, make the right use of each and every ‘moment’ of present time.

-Baba Swami

Monday – Day 12

OM

**MESSAGES OF TRUTH**

Even if you get the chance to meet Paramatma without a ‘Guru’, you will only be able to behold His Divine physical form; but you will not be able to comprehend His Divine Essence.

– Baba Swami

05/02/13

Tuesday – Day 13

OM

**MESSAGES OF TRUTH**

All distinctions of gender, race, language, religion and country cease to exist after one experiences the true ‘Divine Essence’ of Paramatma, because all of these are attached to the ‘perishable’ body.

– Baba Swami

 06/02/13

Wednesday – Day 14

OM

**MESSAGES OF TRUTH**

A Satguru appears in varied physical ‘forms’. But the Satguru’s ‘Divine Essence’ is one and the same; you should experience that very Divine Essence.

– Baba Swami

 07/02/13

Thursday – Day 15

OM

**MESSAGES OF TRUTH**

Salvation is ‘Bliss’ and ‘Bliss’ is Salvation. The attainment of ‘Bliss’ in present time is through the ‘medium’ (of Paramatma), and after attaining Him there is nothing but rejoicing, festivity and Eternal Bliss in life.

– Baba Swami

Friday – Day 16

OM

**MESSAGE OF TRUTH**

‘The life of a householder’ (Grihasthashram) is the best period (ashram) of a person’s life because on the one hand, this period creates a new generation, and on the other hand, it helps ascetics to create Ashrams (hermitages). No Ashram (hermitage) can be brought into existence without a house-holder’s help and this is perfectly true. One has to accept and acknowledge this.

– Baba Swami
