 "PRIYA NATHJI JI IS THE DOOR THROUGH WHICH PEOPLE CAN COME TO ME----"

HIS HOLINESS SHRI BHOLA NATHJI

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

One day on the 23rd of June 1976 when my father, His Holiness Shri Bhola Nathji and I were together in his room, after his birthday celebrations were over, my father whom I affectionately called "PITIJI" made me sit upon his armchair and placed his arm above my head.

He would always lovingly call me " PIYAJI."

Somehow I did not like what he had done. Perhaps he was thinking of leaving the world, and making me his successor after him.

But the very thought of his leaving the world was anathema to me and I naturally protested, but he merely smiled and blessed me saying:

"Priyaji! After all, this body cannot be kept forever!"

AS Time progressed he never lost an opportunity to tell the people who came before him:

"PRIYAJI IS THE DOOR THROUGH WHICH PEOPLE CAN COME TO ME.

"I CANNOT GIVE ANYTHING TO ANYONE DIRECTLY!"

"HE AND I ARE ONE SOUL.

"WE HAVE ALWAYS BEEN ONE AND SHALL ALWAYS REMAIN ONE!"

" I HAVE TRANSFERRED ALL MY POWERS TO HIM!"

"STAND ALWAYS BY HIS SIDE, IF YOU WISH TO PLEASE ME!"

"IF EVER I SHOULD BECOME ANGRY WITH ANYONE i WILL FORGIVE HIM IF PRIYAJI ASKS ME TO!

"BUT I SHALL NEVER FORGIVE ANYONE WHO HURTS PRIYA NATHJI IN ANY WAY!"

" HE IS A DOOR-- A DOOR WHICH IS ALWAYS OPEN!"

"HE HAS NO GUILE OR PRETENSE IN HIM,

"HE IS INNOCENCE PERSONIFIED.

"HE HAS LOVE AND ONLY LOVE WITHIN HIM FOR EVERYONE.

"THAT IS WHY HIS NAME IS PRIYA NATH -- THE BELOVED OF NATH"
