________________ Sant Kirpal Singh ji-Concluding remarks That is a practical How to rise above the body-consciousness? question. This is not a new thing. “Mautu qibl antu Mautu" (Holy Qoran) And Maulana Rum, the Sufi Saint says, "Bamir al dost pesh az marg, agar mi zindgi khahi". This is an old old subject, but for want of practical people, we have forgotten it. The revival of this ancient science of how to rise above the body-consciousness, will come only through the Grace of God. Without His Grace nothing is done in this world. Whatever is done the impetus comes from the Grace of God. As regards Inviting people to this conference, invitations were sent to all the people but few really accepted it and they turned up. Next time I hope, let all of us hope that we may be able to invite more people and induce them to come here. I think it is only a commencement. Greater things have small beginnings. So there is hope, if we go on by the Grace of God, we may go ahead step by step. Mr Handa (Interrupting) "provided we are served with simple food and not such heavy food." (laughter) Sant Kirpal Singh Ji (continuing) I tell you there is another heavy food which is the bread of life. Without the bread of life there is no life. What is served is merely physical food. We cannot live on bread alone. We have to have the bread of life. Regarding invitations, of course we have not been able to collect all people. I hope with your co-operation there will be more next time. Let us all hope and wish and pray for that. And help will come of course. Talk by Hungarian delegate Mr. John Dobos I am in a better position because I have somebody to translate my Hungarian words. In copy books and at various places we read the words of our Lord Jesus Christ, “Love thy fellow man as ye love thyself". Now who is a fellow man? This question was asked of Jesus and he told them a beautiful story, the substance of which was that every man without exception is a fellow man. In Europe the great majority of us are Christians. Now this situation is not without danger. We feel many times that only a Christain is our fellow man. We both of 133 Shree Sudharmaswami Gyanbhandar-Umara, Surat www.umaragyanbhandar.com
