spiritual path

I have just come back after addressing a gathering of 1000 people at a village called Tilawat govinda in Madhya pradesh- a state in India. i was there along with my friend  gurudev jitendra bhai joshi.We were there as apart of our project of social,economic and spiritual development of village people. You can see the picture of the gathering in the album of this blog. we felt blessed to be with them for 2 days -they are loving villagers! - innocent ,devoted and hard working farmers. We have adopted this village out of our love and compassion for them and shri jitendra joshi has been with them for a very long time guiding them. Serving them is going to be truly spiritual experience.

In my lataest newsletter i have mentioned about a book about nissargadatta maharaj titled "you are that" ,whereas the correct title of the book is "i am that " so,pl take note of this correction .

Most important thing to note about Indian spiritual Masters is that none of them have written books themselves ,but others have writeen books ABOUT them- that is the beauty about the culture and the total dispassion of the masters to write about them, or market themselves or force their teachings on anyone. Osho never wrote a single word himself but 650 books were written about him. Neem karoli baba never wrote anything but then there was Ramdas who wrote about him. The entire spiritual text material of vedas and upanishadas available today was never written by the original creator but SPOKEN by them and later on passed down through the desciples of these rishis and after many years it was given  the form of a text.

Swami vivekananda ,swami shivananda ,shankaracharya did write themselves -these are the few exceptions.
