BODHAYANTI PARASPARAM
and this has nothing to do with other things. You see some similarity. Be happy about it. Ah! there is some similarity there, to that extent we shall say, we don’t implement it here, nor that is going to be our logic to convince another man about our means. Because Rev. Babuji have permitted in some case where meditation on Divine light is not possible, to do ‘Gayatri Japam’, it does not mean we can also suggest that. The traditional way and the way Rev. Babuji has asked to do it are different. He says, ‘if you know the meaning of it and then you meditate, do japa’. It makes some sense, but whereas, those of you who know something about tradition know how complicated procedure it is to do a Gayatri. It is not all that simple. He has simplified it, what is the point in saying to others to convince him saying it is the same thing. It is not the same thing, let us be very very clear. The system given by Rev. Babuji, the Means given by Him is a new one. It has got certain good things of tradition borrowed within it, Rev. Babuji himself acknowledges that openly saying that, whatever good available that has been taught so far has been incorporated in the system. Simply because there is some similarity somewhere else it does not permit us to follow that. So much of clarity all sadhakas should have.
