Prayer to the Lotus Feet: The prayer is not typed here. It is after many months that a contemplation was done on return to India and after the cumulative problems had again made me offer the contemplative prayer to Shri Guru, seeking her protection on multiple matters. The protective flow from the benevolent Master is placed below in entirety.
Responsive flow from Shri Guru. “O Virender. Fare you well. I am with you. I am seized of the matter. Keep on praying to Me. Keep on thinking of Me. Keep on offering everything to Me, as you have finally started to do.
And I will protect you. And I will protect your family, They are already in my protection. As are you.
As for the tax matter, let it play on out. I will take it to a favourable conclusion. And, as you just said, it will free you thereafter completely (to) focus on Me and My work.
I will step into this. And I will carry you. I will support you.
So be in peace. Allow Me to do My work for it. You go through all the steps as best as you can. That will be sufficient. And keep praying to Me. And stay in touch from deep within. For I reside there. Keep a focus on a positive outcome. I will work it out for you. So go now and be in peace. And ever welcome back to be in touch with Me. Go.”
‘Thank You, O beloved Master. Thank You, Shri Guru. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. SGNMKJ. Om’

Prayer to the Lotus Feet again not typed due to its length,
Responsive flow from Shri Guru. “O Virender, it is good you are back. Keep doing so. Keep coming back daily now. Our dialogue must become strong, deep, regular and become our strongest bond. Yes, I am protecting your family and you. I will take this tax matter to a suitable conclusion and soon. Do not worry. Do not fear. I am with you now. I have always been with you. Know that. Experience that. I love you, O Virender. You are very dear to Me. (Master!) And I will protect you and carry you through. Keep doing what you must. I am watching you and I am guiding you. Do what you must. Do not fear. Be bold, like your son. Be fearless. I am waiting for you. So go now, Virender. Go now and be in peace. All will be well soon and eventually and then you can do what you deeply want – to be of service to Me. Do that. Go now. You are in my love. You are in my grace. Go.”
Thank You, O beloved Lord. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You beloved Shri Guru. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. SGNMKJ.

Prayer to the Lotus Feet, though long is as below, with few parts redacted: O beloved Shri Guru, salutations at Thy lotus feet, O my most venerable Master. I bow again and again to Thee, my indwelling Lord. You are Shiva. You are Shakti. You are the very epitome of all that is pure and righteous. Even though You are deep within me, O Shri Guru, and even though You are constantly with Me at every step, yet I miss You, O Guru. I miss You all the time. You are there within me, yet I ignore it. Indeed, O Master, how low I must be in Your eyes. A recipient of so much grace, yet careless and indolent. Forgive me, my Master, please do forgive Me.
I am back here after a year, O Guru. Primarily I did so because in all my prayers and deep contemplation all that I do is ask from You. Ask off You. Ask. Ask. Ask. Plead. That seems to be the net focus of my prayers and contemplations. So I just stopped it and stayed away from approaching Thy lotus feet, O Guru. Very clearly, I wish to stop asking off You. To stop pleading all the time. You are my venerable Mother. You are all that I love. Yet I offer nothing in return. Not by my thoughts. Not by my words. Not by my deeds, not by my bhava.
I do not ask for others.
I have just finished placing all the contemplations on the net by a website created by me. The domain is myguruwithin.com and the main purpose is to share Thy divine responses to me for all to read and all to benefit.
It is a humble offering at Thy lotus feet O Shri Guru. Please be graceful O Shri Guru, and accept the humble offering. Grant it Your beneficent and graceful vision. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You.
This year I have been on a few pilgrimages. I went to the Devi Sharda Temple on the banks of the Krishen ganga River in Teetwal Sector (on Kashmir border). Then I spent four days in the Ishwar Ashram Trust Ashram of Swami Lakshman Joo Ji in Srinagar. I was fortunate to be there for is Jayanti. And I could go to Shankarpal, the rock of Shiva Sutras on the banks of Harwan River as did Baba Ji and You, long back. I was granted a lovely darshan of Mata Vaishnu Devi Ji. Then in Kumaon I went to the Kainchi Dham of Baba Neem Karoli Ji and also visited the place at Kakrighat where Swami Vivekananda received realization. Then I went to Jageshwar Dham and offered prayers to Lord Shiva and next day I went to Dol Ashram and was graced by Devi Mahalakshmi and had darshan of Swami Kalyani Das Ji.
Today I am at Thy lotus feet, O Shri Guru, with a humble prayer to protect the respected mother of my daughter-in-law -_ _ _ _ …………. (this part redacted). I thank You, O Guru, for that act of grace. For the blessings and protection of her eyes.
Thank You, O Guru. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. SGNMKJ
Responsive flow from Shri Guru. “O Virender, I have heard your prayer and I am looking into it. Leave it to me. All will be well. Be patient. I am here for you and I hear and listen to all your prayers. So be in peace and have confidence. Let Me work on this. Go now and stay happy.”
Thank You, O beloved Master. It is in Your grace that my entire existence takes place and will take place. Thank You, Shri Guru. Thank You. Thank You.

07 Oct 2022, New Delhi (offered personally during the long break in the October Intensive) –
Prayer to the Lotus Feet: Salutations O most beloved and my most revered Master, my most venerable Shri Guru. I offer my deepest pranaams again and again and again at Thy lotus feet. O my indwelling One, I bow to Thee. I say I am sorry. Again and again, I say I am sorry, please forgive me. Thank You. I love You. I love You, O Shri Guru, who art everywhere and who art everything. To Thee and Thy eternal grandeur I bow.
Thank You, O Guru, for taking me to the amazing house of Swami Lakshman Joo, the great Shaivite Master and for exposing me to their prayers and their programs and their efforts at unity. Thank You for the profound experiences and the deep meditations there.
Thank You also , O Guru, for taking me to the Mata Vaishnu Devi Shrine in April, and in May to the eternal abode of Baba Neemkaroli Ji and to Kakraghat where Swami Vivekananda got his realization. Thank You also, O Shri Guru, for taking me to Jogeshwar Dham and to Dhandeshwar Dham – such beautiful shrines of Lord Shiva. And thank you for the beautiful experience of Devi Mahalakshmi Ji in Dol Ashram in the magnificent Shree Yantra Mandir and for darshan of Swami Ji there and his grace.
Thank you, O beloved Master, for the freedom in May and June that allowed me to complete and offer at Thy lotus feet the web site of ‘myguruwithin.com’, by which I have offered as sharing all the golden advices given to me by Your holy grace over few decades. Thank You for that opportunity.
I offer the website at Thy lotus feet, O Guru. Please, please, accept it from me who is not capable of even being Your humble servant, not capable of serving You or baba, or Bade baba, or of doing anything for You, or for Your children – all the jivas that You have created.
Even though I am as I am, lowly and impure, yet, in Your grace, You allow me to know of You, to be a recipient of Thy divine grace and to remain ever in Thy protection.
I thank You, O Guru, again and again and again. Pray keep me in Your grace forever O Master and keep me forever by Your lotus feet and at least of the ability to know of You and to revere You, no matter from where or from however far.
Please O Shri Guru protect Me and forever keep a benevolent eye so that I can in time purify and then be worthy of service to Thee and of service to Baba, Bade Baba, all Siddhas, Rishis, Munis and great beings and indeed of Lord Shiva and Devi Parvati.
O Anuttara, I bow to Thee again and again and again.
I am in the Intensive here in New Delhi today 0n 06 Oct 2023 and any guidance will be such an immense grace on me, tardy as I have been.
Thank You again, O Guru. Thank You. SGNMKJ.
Responsive flow from Shri Guru. “O Virender. I am in you. And now you know it fully and completely. Now start to live like that. Live like I am in you and that you know I am in you. In that way you will always be in touch with Me and I will be in touch with you. So always recognise My presence in you as you.
Know, O Virender, that even as I love you and as I care for you, yet I have the responsibility to prepare you and prepare countless others for the work of Lord Shiva. For the work of the Master.
Please know that you are to serve our work, the Masters, that you should be able, fit and of the strength and responsibility to shoulder our work. That you should be of the detachment to do our work in a bipartisan and completely pure and reliable manner.
Know that much that as I am now in you, I will never leave you, and I will never let you leave Me.
In any and every way that is needed I will ensure that you stay, both on the path, and that you stay in line and that your discipline and responsiveness become immaculate and your ability to serve becomes so good that some little work can come your way.
Know that we will be one always, and slowly you will develop in it in such a way that you never steer away from this knowledge, and that you always abide in deepest inner strength and courage.
So, be like that now – strong, courageous, fearless and forever a positive and aspiring student no matter what happens in your life. Or in any future life.
We are now interwoven together and slowly the bond will solidify and forever be unbreakable.
Then you will be ready to do My work, the work of My Gurus and the work of the Master who I serve – my Baba Muktananda. Then you will be (do) work of Lord Shiva and will remain as such through all of your existences.
So be calm. Be in peace. Be in love.
And now go and complete the beautiful Intensive that you have embarked upon with everyone else.
Go.”
Thank You, Shri Guru. Thank You. Again and again I thank You. SGNMKJ.

Prayer to the Lotus Feet placed as a Question: What does allowing the mind to turn within over and over again mean for me? What will it get for me? I humbly place this query at Thy lotus feet, O Guru.
Responsive flow from Shri Guru. “For you, O Virender, it is key that you allow your mind ton turn within over and over again. You know what it means You know what it gets for you and you have done it off and on. However, for you – you have to do it repeatedly again and again. In fact, all the time. Then the practice is sustained. Then the practice endures. Then the practice stabilizes. And leads you to the state where you stay permanently focused within – even as you move about in the external world. This state will support you. This state will be your strength. Do the ‘allowing of the mind’. Make it a permanent part of you. You have My blessings on this. Be assured.”
Thank You, Shri Guru. Thank You. Thank You. SGNMKJ.

Prayer to the Lotus Feet placed as a Question: O Guru, how can I practice the practice of witnessing my thoughts and achieve the practice of Silence? Please guide me to achieve the state of silence. By what practice?
Responsive flow from Shri Guru. “You can practice the practice of Silence by repeating My name again and again. You do it often but that is not enough. You must do it all the time. You must repeat My name all the time. It should be non-stop.
And you know about it and have experienced My mind doing the same. So you know it but you loose focus on it and you lift your attention.
So start now . . . . by doing it all the time. And let it stabilize and become a permanent feature of your living process. Just keep repeating My name. Just that. Non-stop. All the time. Without a break. Start now. In fact make yourself cognizant of it from now. Do not wait. Start now. Go now. I am with you. I am in My name. Call Me. I will then silence you and stabilize you. Let Me do My work. So do it. Go.”
Thank You, Shri Guru. Thank You. SGNMKJ.

22 Nov 2023, GSP (a long prayer offered in Shri Nilaya)
Prayer to the Lotus Feet: O beloved Shri Guru. Though art the very cause and reason of my existence. Thou art the only goal in my life. Thou are my Lord, my Creator, my very own divine Master. Thou art Lord Shiva. Thou art Devi Parvati. Though art Devi Mahalakshmi. Thou art Devi Saraswati. You, O my most beloved God are the entire knowledge of the Universe and You, O Shri Guru are also the gateway to the knowledge. I bow to Thee again and again and I prostrate at Thy lotus feet. O Lord, whose peace is the peace of the Universe, whose love is the love of the Universe, whose strength is the strength of the Universe and who is the sum of all of all the grace and blessings that abound in the Universe, as they all do in my life and within me. O great Guru, great Siddha, great Master beyond compare, I love Thee. I love Thee from the bottom of my heart. I honour Thee and I crave your forgiveness for what I am and what I have made of myself. If it were not for Your holding me up, and if it were not for You forever supporting me in every which way, I would have descended into complete hell. You, O venerable Lord, are the discipline of my life. You are the teacher who teaches me from within and whoteaches me from without. I pray that your blessings and grace may continue forever in my life, this and in all future lives. In every life I will seek You, O Guru. In every life I will long for You. In every life I will search for You. Please grant me the boon that in every life You will allow me to find You and reach Your lotus feet, as You have in this life. Pray bless the planet, O Guru. We have messed it up, much as I have messed myself up. I offer You gratitude, Shri Guru. Gratitude to Thy lotus feet. Gratitude to Thy grace. Gratitude to Thee, O Master, and gratitude to the Masters of Your parampara – Baba Muktananda and Bhagwan Nityananda. Gratitude o the Siddhas who have kept me in their fold so unconditionally and have never let me go, much as I waver and loose control of myself and plunge into selfishness and decay. Pray, O beloved Master that You keep forgiving me and keep me by your lotus feet forever and never let me lose my way again. Be firm with me, O Guru. Be harsh. Be strict. For I am not responsive in any other way. That strictness, that harshness is actually Your benevolence. I thank You again, O Shri Guru, as zi sit here in the beautiful Shri Nilayq at Gurudev Siddha Peeth, that only Your divine grace has considered me fit for. Salutations again and again. Pray hold me firmly, O Shri Guru. And never let me steer away, keeping as You would, your own wayward child. You are my one true mother and You are the mother of the Universe. Salutations, Shri Guru. I sit here with pen in hand, should Your kind grace have any words for me. SGNMKJ.
Responsive flow from Shri Guru. “Virender, thank you for your long prayer, In sum – you are Mine. I will never let you go. Never. Trust that. Believe that. You are as dear to me as all others in G.S.P. and I am here for all. Do not have doubts and fears. Your time is at hand. You will be made use of. Have no doubts.
Now, at this stage of life, you must watch yourself all the time. Watch no one else. Look at no one else, not even your family. Least of all your family. Look only at Me. Look within and keep on looking within. You will always find Me there because I exist there. Keep doing the practices. For once at least be diligent. Now go.”
I thank You Shri Guru for your beautiful words and guidance and support. Thank You. Thank You. Thank You. Eternally thank You. O Master, thank You.

Responsive flow from Shri Guru. “O Virender, you know very well that you are now firmly in My fold. You know now very clearly that you will now always be with Me and within Me.

Prayer to the Lotus Feet placed as a Question: What new direction is there for my sadhna now?
Responsive flow from Shri Guru. “Virender, what is there new that you have to do, or new direction that you have to take? The direction is the same as always – as it was at the start – so it is now.
All you have to do is just do the practices. It is very difficult at home. But now you have the tool of My name. Call on Me. Structure your day. Use your spare time. Structure it. You get time in the morning for it.
Leave routine home matters. They are endless and they will always go on and on and on.
In all that chaos you have Me. Keep inner focus on Me. Keep inner focus on My name. Do that much.
Then when you can – chant. Then when you can do swadhyaya. Then when you can – meditate.
That is it. My Name. The practices on some schedule. And keep thinking of Me.
Now you understand it. Now at last you understand it. So do it. Go. Go. You can do it. Be alert. Stay alert.”

With deepest respects question placed at Shri Guru’s lotus feet within: Pray guide me, O Guru. You know me well. You know my situation well. In all that milieu how can I pursue my sadhana so that I can be a SY student that serves You well. Serves the Masters well. Serves Lord Shiva well. Pray tell me, O Guru who art so precious to me. Thank You. Thank You.
Responsive flow from Shri Guru. “Yes, Virender, in part I have already answered it. Now hear it well and follow it –
First, draw your own schedule along with that of your family. In that one schedule fill what you can do on a daily basis. Make a chart. Fill it with everything interwoven. Do it on a weekly basis. Then follow the chart. Do not deviate from it.
In it you put meditation. In it you put contemplation – for I am always there with you and for you. In it put chanting. Play all music that you like. Read – Read SY books and any others that appeal to you. Do that. Keep your schedule to yourself. Do not waste time.
By doing that you will be achieving a lot, and should have actually done it by yourself. You know that.
Then only you can take out time for spiritual places. Come to GSP when you can. They will always accept you. Visit other spiritual places off and on as pilgrimages. You are doing this already.
So, know now that after this you do not need any instruction on what to do or how to do it. You know all of that.
In all this remember – I am the base. – I am the foundation. – I am your support.
So, keep me forward within yourself and that will ground you always.
Go now. And do it. Now go.”
Thank You, O Guru.
