 JANUARY 21ST 2021 ---GATEWAY TO GOD

===========================

THE PORTRAIT BELOW IS THAT OF SHRI D.D. MEHTA (1867-1940) WHO LATER CAME TO BE CALLED HH SHRI BABAJI MAHARAJ.

HE WAS A MILLIONAIRE WHO GAVE AWAY HIS ENTIRE WEALTH TO THE POOR AND THOSE IN NEED, AND REJOICED IN THIS RENUNCIATION.

HE SHOWED HOW WEALTH COULD BE MADE MEANINGFUL AS A GATEWAY TO GOD.

HE WAS FLOODED WITH DIVINE LIGHT AND MULTITUDES THRONGED TO HIM FOR PEACE AND BEATITUDE AND THE ALLEVIATION OF THEIR ILLS AND SORROWS. HIS TEACHINGS STILL ON TO GUIDE MANKIND.

HE WOULD SAY:

1. "I AM CONVINCED THERE IS NO CONDITION HIGHER THAN THAT SILENCE WHICH COMES OF THE ABANDONMENT OF ALL LATENT DESIRES.

2. "THERE IS NO STATE WHICH IS HIGHER THAN MINE,

AND NO STATE WHICH IS LOWER THAN MINE.

AND THERE IS NO STATE LIKE MINE."

3. "HE WHO HAS NOT GIVEN UP THE WAYS OF VICE,

HE WHO CANNOT CONTROL HIMSELF,

HE WHOSE MIND IS NOT AT REST,

CAN NEVER REALIZE GOD,

THOUGH FULL OF LEARNING OF THE WORLD."

4. "I AM CONTENT WITH WHAT GOD HAS GIVE ME AS MY SHARE AND COMMIT TO MY CREATOR MY EVERY CARE.

TO DO GOOD IN THE PAST HAS BEEN INDEED HIS WILL,

HE WILL DO GOOD AS WELL IN WHAT IS TO COME STILL."

4. TO HIM LIFE WAS AN ORDER OF GOD WHICH BROUGHT MAN INTO THE WORLD.

AND DEATH ANOTHER ORDER OF GOD WHICH TOOK MAN AWAY FROM THE WORLD.

AND IT WAS THUS THAT HE CAME INTO THE WORLD ON THE 21ST OF JANUARY 1857 AND MINGLED INTO HIS ETERNAL INVISIBLE SELF ON THE 13TH OF DECEMBER 1940 AND NOW GUIDES US FROM HIS ETERNAL INVISIBLE CELESTIAL PLANE.

5. BEFORE HE LEFT THE WORLD HE GAVE TO THE WORLD HIS SON HH SHRI BHOLA NATHJI IN WHOM PEOPLE SAW THE LIGHT OF GOD, AND WHO CONTINUED WITH HIS WORK, AND STILL DOES SO FROM HIS ETERNAL IMMORTAL CELESTIAL PLANE AND GUIDES AND HELPS US WHENEVER WE NEED HIM.
