 Shri Ram Chandraji in this book entitled Commentary on Ten Commandments of Sahaj Marg elucidates the conditions which are necessary for realising the Ultimate. They are Commandments which one must follow implicitly. They are not merely orders arbitrarily given, but clearly explained in order to show their rationality in respect of the goal that has to be reached. They are of course easy to follow when there is the earnestness to reach the goal or the Ultimate.
The simple formula of prayer gives us our objective in this search - it is God who is the All Master, and who is the only person who can lead us to the destination. Our wishes interfere with our reaching the destination and are prapti-virodhis - enemies of our attainment. Surrender to God who is the power omnipotent is the essential need, for God is both the means and the end. The Master who leads us to the Highest is one who is so much absorbed in the Ultimate that He is as it were God in descent towards the soul that seeks and strives, and struggles for help.
The ancient methods of practice are beautifully explained showing the rationality of worship and meditation at the sandhyas or conjunctions of the day - morning, noon and evening. The angas of yoga are also neatly expounded and the natural method of spiritual adaptation and adjustment to the goal is given in a simple and straightforward manner. The purification of the system by the subtle process of transmission by the Master is an achievement that can find no parallel in the spiritual history in recent times. To live in God, for God and by God is the burden of the path of Sri Ramchandra's Raja Yoga and this naturally leads to the realisation of one's reality in God, for God. So too one becomes harmonious with all without any distinctions. The higher worlds open up to one who has become one with God by living in Him and for Him alone. Spirituality is not like religion just a form of worship or technique of observances; it is a living in the awareness of God and in His essence.
Shri Ram Chandraji points out how the individual soul by following the Commandments can even at the first contact come to experience the peace that passeth understanding, and then grow in this peace towards the highest possible to man. Liberation or moksha is something that naturally follows
