Mystic Poetry (Bhajan, Hymn) of Baba Somanath: O beloved ones, repeat the Simran of Naam, Otherwise your life will be spoiled.
Naama sumirana karale pyaare
Nahi to hoya khuwaari (refrain)
O beloved ones, repeat the Simran of Naam,
Otherwise your life will be spoiled.
Kaama kalpanaa chora jaga se, hoya raho tuma nyaari
Cast out fantasies of desire from your heart;
Remain detached from this outer world.
Dhyaana guru kaa dhaara tu, jaise chandra chakoraa
Nirakhata raho nisadina, aatha hi praharaa
Hoi hai dyaala to kari hai nihaala
Pala me deya ubaari (1)
Contemplate on the Guru as the moonbird gazes at the moon;
Maintain your watch all the hours of the day and night.
When He becomes gracious, He showers His blessing on you,
And in an instant you attain salvation.
Dhru, Pralhaada, Vibhishana, aur Bhilani Shivari
Ganika Ajaamila jaise paapi naama anekana taari
Patita paavana naama nirmala
Tuma kyon chale bisaari (2)
Dhru, Prahlad, Vibhishana, 30 and Bhilni Shivari were saved.
His Naam liberated countless sinners like Ganika, the prostitute, and Ajamila, the sinner. 31 
The Immaculate Naam is the purifier of the fallen ones.
Why do you persist in your forgetfulness?
Nita nema kara prema se, svaasa svaasa ura dhaari
Chita dvai nainana madhye, sthira kara samhaari
Dhuna dhadhakaara hotaa jahaa
Ghantaa naada jhanakaari (3)
Constantly meditate with true love; with each and every breath, cherish the Naam in your heart.
Fix your attention between the two eyes; become firm and concentrate within.
Where the Dhun is resounding,
You will hear the peeling of Celestial Bells.
Dala sahasra kanvala ke paarachala, kaala kalaa saba haari
Sthula sukshama kaarana shariraa, mana na maayaa thahari
Sthaan trikuti brahma langa ke,
Manasarovara naahari (4)
When you travel to the regions beyond the Thousand-Petaled Lotus, the tricks of Kal are all conquered.
Rising above the physical, astral, and causal bodies, neither mind nor Maya remain.
Crossing over Trikuti, the region of Brahma, bathe in the waters of Mansarovar.
Hansa hoya sataloka sidhaare, satta purusha hi nihaare
Nita hota bina dhuna jahaa, satta hi satta pukaare
Bhaja Somanaatha naama niraamaya
Guru prataapa te huye nyaare (5)
The swan-bird of the soul departs for Sat Lok, where it beholds Sat Purush, the True Lord.
The music of the veena reverberates perpetually on the air.
In that Realm, the Truth of Truth calls forth.
Somanath says: “Repeat the Immaculate Naam.
Through the glory of the Guru, you will become free from this world.”

Mystic Verses of Sant Namdev from Three Sources
Namdev advises to accept divine instruction so that humanity may be contented and happy:
When I sing of God, then I behold Him;
Then I, His servant, obtain contentment.
Accept divine instruction, 0 man;
the true guru shall cause thee
to meet God.
Where the heavenly Light shineth,
There playeth spontaneous Music.
'God's Light is all-pervading'--
By the guru's favour I know that.
In the chamber of the heart are jewels
Which glitter there like lightning.
God is near, not distant,
And His Spirit completely filleth mine.
Where the inextinguishable sun of God's Word shineth,
There earthly lamps grow pale:
Through the guru's favour I have know this.
God's slave Nama hath been easily absorbed in Him.
-- Sant Namdev, Vani of Namdev quoted in, "Sant Namdev -- The Facts of His Religious Ideology", O.P. Ralhan, Anmol Publications, New Delhi
I Shall Never Forget the Lord Now
I shall never forget the Lord now,
I shall keep him clasped to my heart.
Were I to forget him, I should indeed lose all I have.
Every moment I offer my body and mind to the Lord,
Never for a moment do I let him go from my mind.
With every breath I drink the nectar of his remembrance --
This beggar thrives on the nectar of the Lord's Name.
Engrossed in his love, I keep repeating his sweet Name.
Were I to forget him, I would certainly come to grief.
Says Namdev, I shall never fix my hope on any but him.
I shall lay down my life to attain the wealth of his Name.
-- Sant Namdev, "Saint Namdev", translated by J.R. Puri, V.K. Sethi
It is your Music
I hear
0 Lord.
The rhythm of drums
jantar
and vina.
The supreme moment
has come.
I had chains around
my feet.
But now I have no fear
of this ocean of samsara [world of changes].
I looked within
and perfected devotion
says Namdev.
Govind [God] is right
here.
My heart dwells
at his feet.
Never will I give up
my love for him.
Let people laugh
all they wish.
Govind's [God's] name
will take you across
the ocean of samsara.
Why work yourself
to death
for the falsehood
of maya [illusion]?
A man will stake his life
for his money.
Should a bhakta [lover of the Beloved] not cherish
his love?
All that I want
is to please Ram [God]
says Namdev.
-- Sant Namdev,
"The Hindi Padavali",
Winand M. Callewaert translation
Motilal Banarsidass, Delhi

Beloved Radhasoami (Lord of All Souls) is Your Protector
Some selections of Radhaswami hymns found in the book, "Niyamawali," published in Agra, India:  
Guru is my Father and Mother. Who can describe His glory and eminence?
Beloved, merciful to the humble, Radhasoami, does good to my soul every moment. (Prem Bani Radhasoami, Huzur Maharaj)
0 Jiva [soul]! Why do you worry? Beloved Radhasoami is your protector. When you were born, He arranged milk for your feed and had your mother bring you up. He took care of you in every way and attracted you to His Holy Feet.
He provided you with all the pleasures of the senses and showed you the transitory nature of the world. He then drew you to Satsang and gave out to you the secrets and mysteries of the Nij Ghar (True Home). By His grace and mercy, go up and open the Tenth Door.
He improves your understanding by His discourses. He lets you examine the true nature of the mind, enabling you to give up your entanglements, delusions and adherences to past beliefs. He applies your Surat [Soul's Attention] to Shabd [inner Current of Sound and Light]. Ascend to higher regions and see beautiful scenes.
He makes the bell and the conch audible to you in Sahas-dal-kanwal [Thousand Petaled Lotus]. He shows you the splendor of Guru in Trikuti [Causal Plane, second inner Region]. See moonlight in the expanse of Sunn, and, reaching the perfect region beyond Bhanwargupha, perform Arti of Sat Guru.
Taking a telescope from Sat Purush, proceed to Alakh and Agam. Beyond lies the infinite Radhasoami Dham. Behold it and be enriched place your head at His Holy Feet. (Prem Bani Radhasoami, Huzur Maharaj)
Have patience. Do not be dejected. Fix your Attention on, and absorb yourself in the Holy Form of Guru. Always sing His praises. Make no excuses. This should be your aim, just as the Papiha (the sparrow hawk) patiently waits in expectation of the Swanti rain with a fixed aim.
Direct your Attention inward, do not allow it to flow out anywhere else. Put up with every thing inwardly. Accept nothing but internal joy. Have patience. Do not divulge acts of grace of Sat Guru to others. Live with Radhasoami like a fish in water. (Sar Bachan Radhasoami Poetry, Soami Ji Maharaj)

#राधास्वामी_पंथ_की_सच्चाई
The history and origin of Radha Soami Panth
Seth Shiv Dayal ji started his faith on "Satnaam" and "Anami" but Radha Soami name was coined by Rai Saligram. Rai Saligram used to address Naraini Devi (Wife of Shiv Dayal Ji) as "Radha Ji" and this is where the name "Radha Soami" originated. Later on the Gurus gave a meaning to this word "Radha Soami" with Radha meaning "Soul" and Soami meaning "Lord", hence "Lord of the Soul". But in reality Radha Soami is addressed to Shiv Dayal Ji
because Narayani Devi ji was addressed as Radha ji and her husband as Radha's Soami.

The Path of the Masters is Within: "To attain liberation/salvation, Sant Mat does not follow numerous complicated practices, but two essential methods:
1) Drishti Marg (i.e. the Path of inner Light/Vision) and,
2) Shabd Marg (i.e. the Way of inner Sound/Transcendental Hearing).
“Unlike other worship methods popular in religions and sects with different names, these two methods are not man-made. God himself is the founder and operator of these methods. Since the beginning God has kept these two methods inside human beings with full qualifications. The way of redemption of jivas (i.e. bounded souls) is available within all human beings." (Baba Devi Sahab)

“We usher in a new era, Sat Yuga, The Age of The Truth.” (Universal Proclamation) Dreaming, i land at Home. Meditating, i open the door, i am Home. I look always through my heart, i feel Home. I let the words to design my reality, my Home, Sharing in humility the crumbs of knowledge i keep at Home, I embrace your divine presence in this sanctuary, our Home, Let's drinking the light from the cups filled by ourselves and celebrate in stillness into our Home: Home is The Truth, The Light, The Love, We live it, within it, for it, The perfect symbiosis between The Immortal Moment and The Self. “What’s the use of receiving this human form if we do not serve others in thought, word, and deed. If we hold our thoughts only on worldly material things and refuse to think of that which is higher and more subtle, then our faith in the Transcendental will inevitably diminish.” (“Quintessence of Yoga: Secret of All Success”) “Today’s karmas become the fate of tomorrow. According to our last life actions, our mental tendencies are formed in this life. Because of our pure actions we will have the desire to seek the association of Sants and to meditate.” (Swami Vyasanand) “The practices which have been taught for purifying the spirit and and making it ascend upwards should be performed regularly and with feelings of love.” (Huzur Maharaj Rai Saligram Bahadur, Prem Updesh Radhasoami) “Love is that meditation or method that makes the impossible possible. That which is harsh becomes gentle; the enemy becomes friend; the weak become strong; the concealed becomes revealed. Even though it is said that it takes many lifetimes to realize the Divine, if a devotee performs sadhana (meditation practice) with true, unwavering devotion, then the Divine will manifest at that moment.” (Swami Vyasanand) “In my heart, hidden deeper than fantasy … You are my Friend in the light of the day … and my companion… in the darkness.” ( Mansoor al- Hallaj) "When you truly feel this equal love for all, when your heart has expanded so much that it embraces the whole of creation, you will certainly not feel like giving up this or that. You will simply drop off from secular life as a ripe fruit drops from the branch of a tree. You will feel that the whole world is your home". (Ramana Maharshi) OM
