Voyage
In the year 1988 at the age of about 39-40 years I turned and
began to explore such metaphysical issues, what is spirituality;
what is God: What is this eternal light (JYOT)? What are all these
countless life forms (AAND) – cosmic regions (KHAND) and
universes (BRAMAND)? From where have all these come and
into what are these diffusing? Who am I, a puppet made up of five
basic elements plus a soul? Who is the ultimate force behind all
this? It is a voyage that starts from the mortal world and reaches
up till the abode of Almighty. Ordained by the Almighty God,
here I am narrating the same experiences as HIS own dog and
nothing else.

I thus prayed that I meet my worthy teacher (GURU or
MURSHAD)who, instead of putting his own self in the focus of
my meditation, may lead me on to the true path and bless me
with a word of meditation, through which I be able to obtain
knowledge of the DASAM DWAR or the tenth (spiritual) opening
. At last in 1992 my wandering ended as one fine day I ultimately
met my spiritual teacher or guide who said that he was just a
fellow traveler and not a guru. He then steered me to the 'word'
(SHABAD) which indeed was to be my guru and was to lead me to
the tenth (spiritual) opening of the body. The knowledge that was
imparted by Lord Krishna to Arjun in the sixth chapter of 'Geeta',
the same was given to me by this spiritual teacher in a simple
straight forward way and without any presumptions. Along with
this he also delineated a 'code of conduct' for me to follow for the
rest of my life. This code of conduct must get incorporated into
one's nature as its integral part and should become the beacon of
one's routine life. It is like various restrictive/preventive
measures advised by a doctor along with a therapeutic
prescription.
• For men, all women except one's wife are to be treated like
one's mother. Similarly for women all men except one's
husband are to be treated like her father.

well.

most point of the human body, as shown in diagram - 3). It is here
that one can have the vision of one's soul. In order to realize this
spiritual opening one's meditative concentration must remain
focused on the nasal tip or the raised point between the two nasal
openings. Beyond this, upward towards the head is the raised part
of head, the apex of the human body. This is called the 'controlling
power' or 'controlling point'. In scientific parlance it is also called
“the little brain”.
MY OWN EXPERIENCE
My own experience has been like this: close the eyes, think
only of the formless Almighty God who is the Supreme Lord of the
entire creation and its infinite cosmic circles and universes,
meditate with whatever sound or word has been obtained from
the spiritual guide, teacher or guru, all the while keeping the
focus of mind on the nasal tip (No physical entity including the
image of any deity, living guru, etc. should ever become the point
of focus of the meditation).This alone will enlighten the path and
accomplish the voyage beginning from the mortal world (MRITU
LOKE) and ending at the Abode of the Almighty God. It is not
mandatory to adopt any one particular body posture while
meditating (traditional practice is sitting cross-legged and
straight). One can meditate in any posture, sitting, standing, lying
down, sitting in a chair, walking or even doing one's daily chores.
Only the focus of meditation, as I have repeated time and again,
should be maintained on the point over nasal tip. While
meditating during walk, the focus of vision should remain in
between the feet. Beyond all this it is His Will and grace as to
whom so ever, where so ever and when so ever may He choose to
shower His kindness on. It will be appropriate to mention here
that all known spiritual personalities and mendicants have
referred to the DASAM DWAR or the 'tenth (spiritual) opening in
their respective utterances or writings.

it. Thereafter for five years i.e. from 1992 to 1997 I began to
circumambulate the city of Amritsar. While thus walking , I
would keep the focus of my vision between my feet and continued
my meditation in this way. Thus while I kept on traversing during
all these five years, various experiences kept on dawning upon me
and ushering me closer and closer to the Abode of Almighty
God.
14
About fifteen days later I began to hear the sound 'Om'
emanating out of this musical resonance. Then this sound entered
my head through the 'last point', passed through the larynx and
reached “ATAM RAM ” behind the naval. For another fifteen
days it continued to resonate from the naval and would reach the
larynx. After another fifteen days this sound of OM, absorbed in
my total consciousness, passed through the larynx and carrying
the soul with it, escaped the body through the last point. This was
a unique experience. It can be compared with a bucket that is
lowered in a well, tied to a rope passing over a pulley rotating on a
fixed bar. The sound of the lowering bucket, when it hits the water
horizon in the well, brings a sense of deep contentment and begins
to quench the thirst. In the same way our body is like the 'bar',
brain is the 'pulley', the soul is the 'rope' and the sound or the word
is the bucket. This sound (OM) ferries the soul through all the
celestial regions on way to the abode of God and there the soul
becomes a part of the infinite God. The soul gets contented. The
musical resonance, the sound of OM and the soul all these three
become one. Again it is just like one has to approach a well in order
to quench one's thirst. The soul acts like a rope and the sound of
OM like the bucket. The bucket tied to the rope goes down and
touches the water in the well producing that great satisfying
sound. First of all the bucket fills itself and thereby gets contented ,
later on it returns and quenches the people's thirst. In the same
way the 'SHABAD' or sound is like a bucket, it carries the soul up
through the 'last point' where the “AMRIT KUND” is also
situated. Then it merges the soul in to the Almighty and thus
quenches it. Then these return to 'MRITU LOKE' and quench
people's quest by His Supreme Will. Thereafter this sound
initiating me from the “PATAL LOKE” led up to the “TAP
MANDAL” giving me frontal manifestations of all these.

proclamation then ordained me to pray and meditate and thus
please 'YOG MAYA' in order to obtain passage to the House of
God. So I meditated on 'YOG MAYA' for six months and then got
the passage. It was complete bliss thereafter, abound and eternal.
Beyond this the narration of the inside experiences of the Abode of
Almighty God is forbidden.

relayed to anyone except one's guru in this mortal world (MRITU
LOKE). The meditation of this sound carried me far and beyond
all, what may be called as “the Palace of God”, “SACHKHAND”,
“House of WAHEGURU” or House of ALLAH”. It was beyond all
these. It did not appear like a castle of light. All the God's Will is
executed by “YOG MAYA.” A syllabic note is continuously
resonating around there.

has the capability to convert anything that it touches, into gold, in
the same way the Almighty Lord forgives and accepts even the
wretched of the wretches' once they take to meditation(SIMRAN)
and step on towards the path to His Abode.

with the Supreme Lord, may contact these persons. They will
guide you to me.

When the soul fuses into the Almighty God then this
'SHABAD' or the sound begins to resonate perpetually in our
body. Then three drops of nectar (SWATI BOOND) from the
'AMRIT KUND' fall into the larynx (KANTH). These bring in total
contentment. Another drop of nectar comes thereafter, and then
the Almighty God accepts the soul as one more flower in the
garland around Him
