I must repeat to you again and again that I was never conscious in my life that I was a MastHad I been conscious, I would have been useless, I would have been unworthy to be a Masteam a disciple of my Babuji Maharaj, doing his work according to his work, according to instructions, whether given in his lifetime or now.

I receive messages from the Master; he says, "The time for you to join me has not yet combecause you have work to do. But when you come you will be received in such a way, and then shall go on to other worlds". And I am I don't know whether I should be happy or sad! This no end. If there is an end to work, there is no life, whether in the body or out of the body.

SHRI RAM CHANDRA MISSION !"#$!% '!(%)!**!+ , %-!"./) .%%0

SpecialDecember 2014 For Private Circulation Only

It is difficult to express in words the shock thatwe all individually have experienced and aregoing through. No words of consolation can everbe enough. Our Master completed fifty years inthe Mission as an abhyasi, as a preceptor, as aMaster, serving every moment of his life,tirelessly.

His life exemplifies a true Karma Yogi. His lifewas full of pain and miseries, at all levels. Therewas never a moment of peace in his life; never amoment. For one reason or the other that peacewas destroyed. All he wanted was to see harmonybetween all of us.

Harmony. Harmony is sadly lacking within us

and amongst us. We must promise him now atleast, lets not have any more differences.Differences are good, they are great, but theyshould not be escalated to the level of dislikesand hatred towards each other. We are brothersand sisters.

We should not look for name and fame. SahajMarg is all about anonymity and working quietly,but working all the time with a common goal toachieve. Babuji has been telling again and againfrom the Brighter World that our Mission shall be

recognised, will be known in the future, asMission where there is unity. It starts with us.

How grand it is to interiorise the presence

Divinity in the innermost chambers of our hearand that it can become only grander exteriorising the same presence through obehaviour and actions.

We as abhyasis, we as bhaktas, we as lovers, as disciples, as functionaries and volunteers, as conduits of love and grace, we as dreamersseeing a better world, we as privilegbeneficiaries of His love and care, we havecommitment to make. It was his dream to seeall united, and growing together, with the lif

mission of changing oneself radically, and in tprocess help the Hierarchy change the courseour future together.

Let us promise our beloved Master, let us resothat we shall make Him happy, well continwith all our hearts in fulfilling His Mission. Letoffer a simple resolve to our beloved Master aguru dakshina, promising him to becomabhyasis, better bhaktas, better lovers, betdisciples, better volunteers, better and better abetter.

Looking to the Future

On the night of the 20thof December 2014, whenI heard the sad news of my Master passing onafter a long and painful illness, I proceeded to theashram in Manapakkam. When I entered, I feltstillness and peace in the atmosphere. Abhyasiswho had already reached were quiet and seemedto be resigned to the reality of Masters departurefrom this world. In the next two days, aroundtwenty five thousand abhyasis from all overIndia, as well as quite a number from overseas,

rushed to our Manapakkam ashram to have aglimpse of Masters mortal remains lying in statein the hall outside his bedroom. As abhyasis filedpast in silence, with tearful eyes and simmeringsorrow, the song Gurupaduka stotram(Adoration of the Gurus sandals) of Adi Sankarawas played as per Masters prior instructions.The first stanza of the song runs like this:

The crossing of this endless ocean of samsara isenabled

by the boat that is sincere devotion to Guru.Showing me the way to the valuable dominion ofrenunciation,

O dear Guru, I bow to thy holy sandals.

On the afternoon of the 22nd of December, ourbeloved Masters remains were consigned to theflames in Besant Nagar crematorium. Thusended the great saga of Masters life on this earth,creating a great emptiness in our lives.

His lessons for us

In life and in the manner of his departure, Masdemonstrated many lessons for us to accept tmortality of human life, to utilise the preciotime available for our spiritual evolution and

rise higher and higher through a life of servicedivine remembrance. Above all, to accept all thhuman life brings to us in its wake, withodemur and without expectations. He was tepitome of all these and therefore became oideal and the goal.

The passing away of a great Master surely tento create a devastating effect on his devotees aa huge void in their inner world. However, obeloved Master of three decades, ChaMaharaj, seems to have prepared the hearts his abhyasis to bear his physical departure. In tlast two years, when his physical sufferinreached a peak and he was several times on tverge of leaving, he made a comeback apersisted with his work in obedience to hMaster. On those occasions, he would say, went up to the door, but it would not open anwas asked to go back as my work was not over. A few months back, when we were sittion the veranda of Masters cottage, he said,cannot leave just because I have appointed

successor. I can leave only when he is ready.

Pain and sufferings the ladder for hascent

In the last one year, when cancer ravaged body and drained him of physical strength, still strove to continue with his work. Oftracked with pain, fever, infections and progressive reduction in food intake, he becambedridden. Yet he would ask to be wheeled outhis bedroom to give darshan to abhya

patiently waiting for him at his gates. His senof humour did not desert him even at this staWhen he was transferred to his wheelchair aftelong confinement in bed, he told brothKamlesh Patel, Now I have become a chairman

Such is the spirit of a Master who wouchallenge the ageing process, infuse hope afaith in his abhyasis and strengthen them againthe misfortunes of life. For him, pain was tladder to the summit of greatness. He also sathat Masters pains drew the love of abhya

towards him. In the final days ofhis conscious life, I was promptedto share my anxieties about hismounting pains. I told him that, ashis children, we also suffer when

he suffers. Master said, It is nottrue. Children suffer onlyoccasionally, parents suffer all thetime.

Recently, during a discussionwhile he was bedridden, Mastermentioned that a brother was apartner in a well-known companyand I said, We can only be yourpartners, but not in your pain.Master replied, That is not

possible. As Babuji says inWhispers, That is how it goes!When I remarked that he had suffered more thanany average human being, he said, That is true,it started when I was a young boy.

The sufferings of masters seem to be for a largerpurpose. Babuji Maharaj says in his Whispersmessage of the 10th of December 2014 that thisfinal step of recent sufferings of Chariji wasnecessary to attain the highest stage of humanevolution. I remember that Master told me

around 1985 that according to the naadi shastra(the science of predictions recorded on palmleaves), he would attain spiritual heights neverattained by man so far.

Comforting message from Master

Within twenty-four hours of his passing, on the21st of December 2014, Master sent a messagefrom the Brighter World saying that all hissufferings are over. Talking to some of thethousands of abhyasis who rushed to Babuji

Memorial Ashram, Manapakkam, I gathered thatthey also felt relieved that his sufferings werefinally over. While they were tearful about hisdeparture, they had no complaint about it. Thiswas the attitude of acceptance Master hadprepared in them by his long and excruciatingillness.

Master has left behind a vast body of teachings.He relentlessly and repeatedly stressed the purityof the Sahaj Marg system to be followed,character formation, love for all and cordiality,

understanding and brotherhood among abhyasespecially the functionaries. We should accethese challenges and work on them sincerely astoken of our love for him.

One who represents Him

Master says comfortingly in the same messagLook to the future with confidence. Abhyaare not an orphaned lot. Master has trained h

Representative and empowered him to continhis work, to guide us through this life and ushus into the world in which the great Mastereside.

In the 1980s, I witnessed the difficulties thMaster faced when he succeeded Babuji MaharMaster used to clarify that when we refer Master, it should not be the name, form attributes, but the Essence behind them. Durithe Basant Panchami celebration Shahjahanpur in the year 1988, when he w

beset with hostile forces as well as doubtiminds, he said very clearly, You should not lofor Babuji Maharaj in his samadhiin the ashrabut look for the person in whom he has takliving samadhi.

This is what he taught us all his life the Mastdoes not die. He is eternal and lives amongst in the form of the living Master.

He lost hismother at the tender age of five and was broughtup most lovingly by his courageous father, whooffered the children a holistic education spanningarts, sports and most importantly thefoundations of a value-based life.

Parthasarathi braved the loss of his dear motherand grew up to be a distinctive adult. He receiveda Bachelor of Science degree from the BanarasHindu University, learnt music, and developedan abiding passion for reading. He nurtured adeep-seated interest in the spiritual quest rightfrom the age of five, and had acquired a solidfoundation of understanding in Christianity,Hinduism, other religions, Yoga and the occult byhis twenty-fifth year.

In 1955 he married Srimathi Sulochana and theirson Krishna was born a couple of years later.Along with Sulochana, Krishna, daughter-in-lawPriya, and two grandchildren Bhargav andMadhuri, they lived as a loving joint family intheir house Gayathri in Alwarpet, Chennai.Parthasarathi spent the majority of hisprofessional life, from 1955 to 1985, with the TTKGroup of companies, where he rose to theposition of Executive Director.

In 1964, Parthasarathi was introduced to theSahaj Marg system of spiritual sadhanaand methis Guru, Shri Ram Chandraji Maharaj ofShahjahanpur (U.P.), affectionately known asBabuji.

His spiritual quest thus assumed a clear directiunder the loving guidance of Babuji. In additito pursuing his spiritual search with great zehe developed a selfless love for Babuji abecame an ideal disciple, whom Babuji describas one with an eastern heart and a western miParthasarathi supported him tirelessly in offerithe Sahaj Marg system of Raja Yoga to seekeHe travelled with Babuji in India and overseand helped him manage all affairs of Shri RChandra Mission, the organisation that offSahaj Marg.

He served as the General Secretary of the Missifrom 1970 to 1982, and in 1974 was nominatedBabuji to be his spiritual successor and presideof Shri Ram Chandra Mission after his olifetime. Babuji attained mahasamadhi in 19and bequeathed his spiritual wealth Parthasarathi. Parthasarathi thus became tthird in the line of living spiritual Masters of tSahaj Marg system. By then, the Mission had emerging presence in India and overseas.

drawn seekers from all over the world to his feet.His mastery of various fields found expressionthrough his spiritual life. Therefore aspirantsfrom different walks of life were naturallyattracted to him. In a very real way, he has

recreated the Upanishadic times in the modernworld. His phenomenal spiritual contributionthrough unceasing selfless service, single-mindedfocus, dedication to his Guru, and inexhaustiblecapacity to work is probably unparalleled in thehistory of the ages. Through his unfathomablelove, universal in its scope and yet sopersonalised in its manifestation, he hasrendered meaning to countless seekers whom hehas carefully guided to a higher life. Hisexistence, perfect and balanced in every way, will

serve as an inspiration to humanity for all time.With his passing on the 20th of December 2014,after fifty years in the Mission, we come to theend of an era. As he has himself repeatedlyemphasised, however, the relationship between aguru and a sishya is an eternal one, that neverdulls with time nor punctuates with the mortalityof this life. With faith in this eternal connectionwith him, we tearfully bid him adieu from thisworld.

His enduring legacy incudes a large globegregore of spiritual seekers united by his lointo a brotherhood, the organisations known Shri Ram Chandra Mission and Sahaj MaSpirituality Foundation, over one hundred a

twenty ashrams and retreat centres that servecentres of light, a well-functioning school thaffords high quality education in a spirituacharged atmosphere, a body of teaching thbuilds on Babujis teaching, his exalted life thwill serve as a permanent example for humanand most importantly his spiritual successor SKamlesh D.

this life.He is survived by his family his son Krishdaughter-in-law Priya, grandson Bhargav agranddaughter Madhuri and by his spiritusuccessor Shri Kamlesh D. Patel.

We prostrate at his Holy Feet with love, gratituand adoration, and pray that his inspiration ainner presence continue to be a torch that guidus back to him in his divine abode.

At Manapakkam

centres around the world, abhyasisgot over their initial shock andmade a beeline to Manapakkam topay their last repects to the onewho has been the focal point oftheir existence.

form of their beloved Master, who was theirfather, grandfather, brother, friend and above alla guru to each craving heart that knocked at thedoor of His heart. Dedicated volunteers servedwater and fruits to everyone, taking care of all thevisitors to the ashram with utmost love and care.
