Hari Bol Premavatar Sri Vishwananda!
"When this egoistic "I" disappears, what stays? The Universal "I", the "I" without any identity of oneself. The "I" which is equal in each one of you."
"It is only through the silence that you will be able to control the thought."
"If you silence your mind completely, you will receive everything. You will not even need to ask."
"The Master becomes everything for you, but this is only temporary, it is not for you to stay there. This is one part only; you have to rise beyond that. How would you know the cosmic form of the Divine?"
"It is not only about seeing some light or somebody walking around. It is more than that - to see that what you have inside of you is really equal inside everybody."
"Blessed and lucky are some who can really see it. Your rise into this extension of yourself, where you see only the un-manifested manifestation in everything. Duality disappears."
"What stays is that your eyes can make you see only Love. It is not a light, you know. It is beyond that."
- fragments of "JUST LOVE" by Premavatar Swamiji Vishwananda
"If You perceive Love everywhere, the thing which you perceive to be Love turns into Love." - Sri Vishwananda
The Gist of the Siddha Gita:
"Renouncing the seer, the seeing and the seen, together with all the Vasanas, we resort to the Self which is the Root-Consciousness behind objectification."
"We resort to teh Self which is the Light of all lights, which is in the middle of the concepts of "is" and"is-not", which occupies the neutral centre between existence and non-existence."
"We resort to that Truth, in which is everything, of which is everything, from which is everything, to which is everything, by which is everything, which is everything."
"This Supreme Fruit (of the Self) can be obtained only by him who renounces all hopes and desires, who has cut the root of the poisonous creepers of craving and ambition."
"He is only an ass, and not a human being, who in spite of the knowledge of the extremem non-existence of happiness in all objects of the world, does yet attach himslef to them."
"One should obtain the sacred happiness of transquillity. He who is tranquil controls his mind very easily. He who has inhibited his mind rejoices for ever the Highest Bliss of Self-Realisation."
Pranam Gurudeva Incarnation of Love, Sri Vishwananda Maharaj!
" So, once you have found yourself, then you become a Jivan Mukti, you become free from the bondage of karmic things... :
So, this intensity, like I have explained many times before, is a burning sensation for the Lord. But sadly nowadays, people don’t know about this intense longing for God. They know only a little bit about how to long for God but then, the next moment, what passes through their mind, what they see is, “Oh, I need this…” They forget about the Lord. They run after the world. It’s so easy to run after the world because you run and the world is running after you. But you have to run after the Lord. I know, I’m talking, it doesn’t make much sense, anyway, what I’m saying, but it’s good to remind one’s self about that. It’s good to remind everybody that we are not here to run after the world. The world can run after you, but you have to run after the Lord. If you really want to realise yourself, the world will be always there for you. But you have firstly to gain the realisation, which is why you have incarnated. Once you have gotten this, you can run after the world as much as you want. That’s what a great philosopher said, “First find yourself, then find the world, then look for the world”, no? So, once you have found yourself, then you become a jivan mukti, you become free from the bondage of karmic things. Then you can do whatever you want, as much as you want: nothing will bind you."
"It is good if God comes in the form of the light, yet the light has a limit. The Ultimate does not have a limit. You are breathing and living in the Ultimate. You are part of the Ultimate, so there is no use to look for something that has a limit."
"Let your only desire be God because the only desire of Spirit is God. All other desires have limits. When you desire something, you want to possess it. The moment you get it, you start disliking it because it is not the Ultimate."
"These days people do not understand devotion. So many people have power, but no devotion. Where there is ego there is no room for devotion. They always want something, always want to be something, they always want quick results."
"The way You make this mind think, you create it. If you want Love, you will have it, if you want God - you will have it. It is just that you want it! Want it without any doubt! Want it with a heart that is really calling for God."
JGD, "When one comes into the guidance of a Spiritual Master, a Guru, and surrenders to what He says, of course, one will be pulled out of this illusion. As long as one doesn’t want to come into guidance of a Master, one will always be in the ignorance." -Swami Vishwananda
What does surrender mean? It is resigning onself completely to the Guru,s Feet: our life, mind, body, senses, ego, wealth, family. Anyway, all is but a part of the Divine already!
What is holding us back from surrendering fully to Guru, to God:
- fears - lack of self-confidence - insecurity - low or high self-estime - feverishness & nervousness - lack of sincerity - limited mental concepts - lack of trust in life, Guru, God - ignorance, lack of deep knowledge - selfishness - egotism - lack of moral values in life - stupidity, narrowmindedness - desires - jealousy and envy - hatred - greed - arrogance - pride - aloofness - attachments - fear of death - fear of others opinions - existential fear about money - fear of criticism & rejection - fear of losing control - lack of logic - cunningness - neurotic need to proof oneself - perfectionism - lack of distance to oneself - compulsion to compete - wrong habits - feeding the past memories - looking for fulfilment outside - lack of self-discipline - lack of compassion and empathy - lack of self-acceptance - lack of love for oneself & others - lack of patience & self-control - lack of sensitivity - laziness - lack of readiness to serve - superficial perceptions - judgmental thinking - idea "I know best & know it all" - latent impressions, samskaras - lack of willingness to change - tendency to blame circumstances & avoiding responsibility - excuses - conditional Love - confusion - depression - not really wanting God! - ... and many more only God knows!
" Oh! God Agni! Lead us through the good path to reap the fruit of our [good] actions Thou knowest all our actions. Destroy all our ugly sins. We salute Thee with our words again and again.
The other method of liberation is called "Jeevan Mukti" or "sadyo Mukti", which can be had by anyone in this very life provided he follows the scriptual injunctions and attains complete purity of mind.
The seekers of Krama Mukti and Jeevan Mukti are those who have understood the sharp distinction between the real and the unreal. They cultivate good qualities like self-control, sense-restraint, discrimination and humility. They are convinced that Atman alone is rel and everything else is unreal. Knowing this they move towarda Reality fiving up all foolish and vain hopes and actions." -

Swami Vishwananda in Czeck TV
In August 2010 while he was in Prague, Swami Vishwananda gave an interview to a popular Czech Online TV channel named "cestyksobe", which signifies "path to oneself".
The Path of devotion followed by Swami Vishwananda has his roots as well in Christianity as in Hinduism. The three qualities of the Path of devotion: Love, Patience and Unity were taught and developed first by Christ and later by Saint Francis of Assisi. Love: Christ said in the Bible: “Love your neighbours as yourself” and “Love your enemy”. The love of Christ for humanity was unconditional; it was so big that he gave his life on the cross for us. He showed us the good example. Saint Francis loved and served every one: sick people, lepers, enemies, richs and poors. He loved all the creatures, seeing Christ in every one.
Patience: Christ had the patience to endure all the sufferings, to teach his disciple and people. Patience is synonym of peaceful, so was Christ. The one who can wait is humble, he knows himself and has no need to put himself before others. He lives with simplicity, Christ said: “ Give away all your wealth and follow me”. And “The birds don’t work and God feeds them. How much God will take care of all your need.” To live in poverty was the main rule of Saint Francis. He endured every thing taking whatever was coming every day as coming from God. He talked from his body as “the donkey” and said one day to brother Leon: “Do you know what is the greatest joy on earth? When we look for a roof at night, to be rejected and slapped in all places and after all to sing the glory of God.” St Francis gave up everything and surrendered totally to the divine providence.
Unity: Christ was fully realised, he said: “Me and the Father are one”. As a God incarnation he was 100% divine and 100% human, he said: “Who have seen me has seen the father”. Like in the Hinduism the Guru is fully immersed in God and the disciple makes no difference between God (the divine formless) and the Sadguru ( the divine with a form). Saint Thomas said to Jesus after the resurrection: “ My Lord and my God”. He was the first of the disciple to declare the unity between god formless and God with a form. Saint Francis saw the divine in the all nature and living beings, birds and wolves, fishes and plants. He talked from brother sun and sister moon, from brother fire and sister water. The unity of the divine nature was always present in his mind. He was one with the elements of the creation. There was no duality.
