The Teaching of the Masters (Man-making)   

A man, according to the Science of Para-Vidya, is not entitled to be called a man in the true sense of the word, unless he has full knowledge, both theoretical and practical, of his distinguished position in Creation, his several component parts- body, mind and soul- in order of comparative importance, and which is to be achieved while he is living on this earth. He who does not understand this much has not even been introduced to the first lesson and is yet to begin the Alphabet of Man. The Saints, therefore impress upon us the need for Man-making’.

Satsang

When scientifically observed facts drawn from practice and experiment are explained verbally to a gathering by a Master Saint, It is called Satsang (external). This Satsang constitutes the theoretical side of the teaching; whearas the actual demonstration given to develop and achieve inner advancement is the practical part, called meditation or Satsang (internal). Conscientious practice brings fruit with days or weeks and it is not necessary to wait for years for results, though progress also depends to some extent, on one’s past background. A true Master gives a first-hand inner experience at the very first sitting. When the practical side is neglected due to lack of firmness or determination, carelessness or pressure of circumstances, scholars of many religious schools dwell more and more open theory alone. The decline of the Science then commences and man find no solace. This is usually the case when a Master leaves the body. Adequate provision, however is made for the revival of this Science in every age, when both the Positive and Negative Powers commence their rounds again; the former through the agency of Master- Soul while the latter work through persons – so- called Masters- who lack practical experience or are lost in theoretical disputations. Master-souls, though quite ordinary men in appearance, are a great deal more. Just as it is difficult for us to judge a scientist, a doctor or an engineer until they speak out or display their skill and knowledge, so too we cannot recognize the knowledge and authority of a Master until we have experienced the Divine Power working through him

In this Science, there is no secrecy or mystery. The objective is constructive and beneficial to all, and so the Saints have torn inside the curtain of secrecy, which usually covers mystic teachings, to make them available to each and every one who calls. There is an Unseen Power working through the Saints Why this Power prefers to remain concealed from the human eye is a question to be asked directly by contacting the human pole through whom this Power is working. This is the only medium of approach to this Power. If we wish to use electric energy we must go to a switch or pole will put us in contact with the powerhouse. The Unseen Power may be called a ‘Sea of Love’. When we wish to bathe in the sea, we go to the edge where the shallow waters begin and then say that we have bathed in the sea. Thus, to experience this Power and to derive benefit from it, we must go to the only source of contact-a Master Saint.
