Yogis in Silence: The Great Sufi Masters

The Absolute Truth is one, which can be realized only in Silence. Spiritualism is to realize the Truth, for which religion is no bar. The almighty is not concerned with one’s religion but with love. Customs and rituals are only the outer form of religion, which depend upon the place and social circumstances. Spirituality is, however, seeking the Truth and self-realisation that are the matters of soul, which is same in every one. The book provides a glimpse of the life and conduct of some of the great Sufi Masters from 8th Century A.D. onwards. These great Masters lived like ordinary family persons, hiding their true self from the public. They believed, "Perfection is not in exhibition of miraculous powers, but perfection is to sit among people, sell and buy, marry and have children; and yet never leave the presence of the Almighty even for one moment". The essence of their teachings is: "desires are the world". Desires cause the worries and worries result into instability of mind. This, however, does not mean inaction or thoughtless action. The Almighty has given intellect to human beings to discriminate between good and bad, and Scriptures are there to guide them. To do one’s best in the given circumstances leaving the result on the Almighty and to remember ‘Him’ always with the feeling of the warmth of ‘His’ love in the heart is the true spirituality. To become a true human being, one has to cover a long path. One, therefore, needs to remember, as Thakur Ram Singh ji, one of the greatest saints of our time used to say.
