Maharshi Mehi — The Bridge Between Hindu Scriptures and Sant Mat

“Sant Tulsi Sahab of Hathras, Uttar Pradesh, India undoubtedly occupies the most pre-eminent position in the lineage of Sant mat and can be said to be the First Saint in the glorious tradition of Modern Age Sant mat. Mr. James Bean, who has made an intensive study of Sant Mat and runs several groups on Santmat very rightly depicts Sant Tulsi Sahab as the “Adi Guru of many if not most all contemporary Santmat guru-lineages, the grandfather or founding-father of modern-day Santmat” and as a “connecting link between the classic Sants of India including earlier Masters in the Kabir lineage, and contemporary Santmat”, and advocates that “any serious study of Santmat teachings must include the hymns and spiritual discourses of Sant Tulsi Sahib”.

“While Sant Tulsi Sahab laid the foundation of the Santmat tradition of modern times, it was exquisitely served and enriched in a unique way by Maharsi Mehi Paramhans ji Maharaj. Maharshi Mehi was a direct disciple of Baba Devi Sahab of Muradabad, Uttar Pradesh, India who had special blessings of Sant Tulsi Sahab...

“…The greatest and most unique contribution of Maharshi Mehi was that he brought together, bridged the gulf that had come to separate not only the Holy Scriptures [of Hinduism] and the Santmat but also the different traditions or sects of Sants from each other.”

'Maharshi Mehi Paramhans and other Sants of India have been in the cultural context of Hinduism what Sufis, Gnostics, and Christian Mystics have often done in relation to their respective traditions: focusing on the esoteric passages contained in their scriptures. They find mystic jewels or gold embedded in the “mud” of tradition, including references to the all-loving God beyond space, form and ritual. While not paying much homage to institutions or outer temples made of wood and stone, they make the heart of their message a contemplative meditation practice that promotes the exploration of inner space in the “temple” of the human body"'...

Mystic Poetry of Sant Tulsi Sahib of Hathras

Mystic Poetry of Sant Tulsi Sahib of Hathras

Behold Your Beloved Within 

This is one of the few ghazals^ written by Sant Tulsi Sahib. This ghazal was written to explain the esoteric secrets of the spiritual path to a Muslim divine, Sheikh Taqi, who happened to pitch his tent in the neighborhood of Tulsi Sahib’s residence. The Saint impresses upon Taqi to seek God within his own self and not in the world outside. Much of the mystery of the inner realms becomes resolved at the eye center, from where the aspirant commences his spiritual journey.

Listen, O Taqi, seek not thy Beloved in the

world outside;

Within thine own self, behold the splendor

of thy Beloved

In the pupil of thine eye is a mole, wherein

is hidden the entire mystery;

Peep within and behold thou what lieth

beyond this dark curtain.

The secret of the fourteen realms will, for

certain, be disclosed to thee;

Let thy attention not slip, see that thou art

ever vigilant.

Listen! Thou art constantly being called

from the Most High.

There ever beckons thee the voice of thy

Beloved.

It is not meeting with the Beloved that is

arduous;

What is difficult, O Taqi, is that it is hard

to behold Him.

Without the grace of some realized Guide,

says Tulsi,

The path of salvation is distant, beyond thy

reach.

_____

^ A ghazal is a form of lyrical poetry, originating from the Persian literary tradition,  which generally deals with the subject of love. Every two lines of a ghazal are usually complete in themselves.

_____

Cosmic Flight Through the Sound Current

Whose soul is attached to the Word, revels

ever in cosmic flight;

Revels ever in cosmic flight, and realizing the

Lord, plays with Him.

The mystery of the inaccessible and the 

secret

of the scriptures he unravels.

He reaches his Home within and its essence

he comes to know;

In the lotus feet of the Beloved he sees

his true destination.

The happily married woman rejoices with her

Spouse every moment, O Tulsi,

For her soul is attached to the Word, and

revels ever in cosmic flight.

(Sant Tulsi Sahib, Book of Shabdavali)
