EXTRACT FROM PUNYAPUTHI - THE HOLY BOOK

Spread Kirtan. Practice it intensively. I shall bestow 
everything. If you practice spiritual existence as instructed by the 
Guru only once or twice a day, that hardly yields a tangible result: 
you should maintain an unbroken meditative mind for all the time 
without any respite. But it is good to follow a regular routine. It 
builds the mind but Kirtan prepares the mind instantly and 
thoroughly. A man simply needs to participate in it with burning 
faith and zeal. (51)

Just think, understand and realize that money does not have 
any intrinsic value. (52)

See men as varied manifestations of your Ideal. (53)

Oh! What a terrific treachery it is to stab people on the 
pretext of quenching their thirst! It is horrible indeed! Oh! How 
wretched is the lot of guileful `Kula-gurus' given to deliberate 
deceitfulness! (54)

You have to renounce nothing in the world. Practice Name and 
all that is detrimental to divine life will quit you immediately 
finding no shelter in you. I dwell everywhere as the stay of all 
that exists in any form be that a discharge from the bowels, or a 
goat or a ram. (55)

Name and love can own everyone ! Love can gain everything in this world ! Love can gain I 
and Love can gain you, 
and everyone will be loved ! Love and Name can conquer I, can own I. Therefore, Love and Name 
can conquer the Universe ! 
Because Universe is I ! Declare Name and Love. Give heart to heart and own heart. 
Make everyone declare Name and love. Love is Heaven and Heaven is Love !

Peaceful heart can make everyone peaceful. Come to me, I will give you everything, no doubt ! 
Be fearless and proceed on and on ! Check your tongue and kiss the feet. Draw the heart fast. 
Atom can feel atom ! (23)

There is no mind, no sovereign, value of sovereign is mind. Without mind sovereign is nothing. (24)

Morning is the indication of the day. Darkness is not indication—Yes darkness of night ! (25)

Leave everything and come to me ! I will give you everything ! (26)

--------Declare Name !* (27)
[* Spoken in English by Sri Sri Thakur]
Where there is spirit, there is heaven. Without spirit matter is nothing, but matter is matter with spirit. Yes! (61) 
*[Spoken in English by Sri Sri Thakur Himself]

I=We. We=I. When the universe is equal to I, everything is equal to I. There is one IĆ¢€"the Truth! (62) 
*[Spoken in English by Sri Sri Thakur Himself]

Sound is the expression of life, without sound everything is lifeless! (63) 
*[Spoken in English by Sri Sri Thakur Himself]

There is no truth, no lie. Everything may be true, everything may be a lie! (64) 
*[Spoken in English by Sri Sri Thakur Himself]

Seek everything in Me. Me is I. What shall I do now? Medium may die. (65) 
*[Spoken in English by Sri Sri Thakur Himself]

Listen to me—When `I'-ness retains its distinct identity 
even after reaching the highest peak of super conscious realization; 
then it can express itself in an audible form just as an individual 
can do in a conscious normal state. (48)

Plunge yourself headlong in the task of fulfilling the 
mission. You are all in all. You will dispatch bagfuls of damned 
souls to the zone of deliverance. (49)

Just say the right thing to reaffirm faith. The ticket for 
the beyond is to be bought with the coin of faith. Let us all march 
onward and forward. Then I as well as others will be energized and 
vitalized. (50)

He is not only beyond the reach of speech and mind but verily is He the blue-bodied Vanamali, 
besmeared with sandal paste, dressed in golden-yellow fabric. (31)

He is seated in white throne, under the shade of an umbrella where the prime uncaused 
sound or logos vibrates in unutterable resonance. (32)

Jesus Christ, Jesus, Jesus ! (33)

I am the void that persists after the process of unceasing elimination. It gets intermixed in 
the unending void. (34)

Devotion should co-exist with knowledge. Just listen to me—a vast field of activity 
lies ahead. (35)

Ask your supreme self. He also will confirm that if knowledge tempered with devotion is 
inculcated among people, they will not court disaster. (36)

Continued pursuit in this direction will lead to supreme truth. (37)

Just see! Divine absorption is a set of chloroform. When the chloroform is applied, mind 
dwells in the vital plane, man loses physical consciousness. Such a phenomenon 
has to be created. (38)

I shall go. (39)

Ask people to remain intoxicated in Kirtan. Otherwise all ailments will seize them and they will 
invite ruin. Forced repression does not deliver the desired goods. Kirtan constitutes the sole 
spiritual culture. No other form of spiritual exercise is needful. First reach the culminating point. 
Then move as it pleases you.
You are attaining purity. Those who are pure are ever established in maturity. Man has to be 
put in the furnace of affliction to get rid of all dress and dirt. The fire of Kirtan consumes 
all filth residing in humans. (40)
