The Importance of Initiation

Q. Please explain the importance of Initiation.

A. Initiation by a perfect living master assures an escort in
unknown realms by one who is himself a frequent traveller to those
regions. He knows the presiding deities or powers of the planes,
conducts the spirit step by step, counsels at every turn and twist
of the Path, cautions against lurking dangers at each place,
explaining in detail all that one desires to know. He is a teacher
on all levels of existence: a guru on the earth-plane, a Guru Dev
(Astral Radiant Form) in the Astral Worlds and a Satguru in the
purely Spiritual Regions. When everyone fails in this very life, at
one stage or another, his long and strong arm is always there to
help us, both when we are here and we quit the earth plane. He
pilots the spirit into the Beyond and stands by it, even before the
judgement seat of God.

{Radhaswami Dayal ki Daya Radhaswami Sahai:
"Grant Merciful Radhasoami Thy Grace and Protection"}


From Prem Prakesh (Light of Love):

Think of your True Home now.

Receive initiation from the Guru in the true secrets of Shabd.

Practise the modes of Surat Shabd Yoga with love and affection.

Regularly practice Surat Shabd Yoga. Contemplate the Guru's form.

Behold beautiful scenes and spectacles within.

When Radhaswami Dayal [the Merciful Lord of the Soul] is pleased to shower His grace, He will elevate your soul along the Current of Shabd. You will then ascend to your True Home.

Listen to the reverberations of Anhad Shabd within you.

Radhasoami in His grace and mercy will take you across.

Make His holy feet your prop and support.


From Prem Tarang (Ripples of Love):

My Beloved Himself is the most munificent Radhaswami. I sacrifice myself at His holy feet.

Radhasoami, in His grace, has taken me in His arms. He has
extricated me from Kal's net.

Imparting to me the knowledge of Shabd, He has elevated my Surat to higher regions.

I heard the sounds of the Bell and the Conch.

I saw the Red Sun and then beheld the Moon. I heard the melodious sounds of the Flute and the Harp. I was delighted to touch the Holy Feet of Radhasoami. I have now reached the Highest Abode.
