Talk by Sant Kirpal Singh Ji claims of Hindus, Jains, Budhists or any other religion. Ahimsa is now the world religion and all the religions together have to support and develop Ahimsa. For this purpose, we must have at least an Institution a research institution where problems of Ahimsa will be studied.
You know amongst us is Mr. Grey from U.S.A. He has written a forceful book "The power of Non-Violence". I do not think we have any better book as yet. So you see, an American sitting in his house living thousands of miles away, is thinking of developing non-violence throughout the world.
I am taking names of only those people (whom I know. There is one I Mie San from Japan. He and his Guru one trying to spread Ahimsa even in the political field. Name of the country is Nipon and not Japan. They are also trying to do it. So people in all countries, in all nations are trying to develop Ahimsa. Therefore, let us come together and see how we could get together and evolve a common plan. This is the main purpose of this Conference.
Talk by His Holiness Sant Kirpal Singh ji
President, Delegates and Gentlemen :
'Man' is the highest in the scale of creation. His status is next to that of God and much superior even to that of angels. Great indeed is Man.
What is man? Man' is the name given to our en-souled body.
What is soul? 'Soul' is the conscious entity in Man, In the light and life of which he lives and has his being. It is of the same essence as that of God, a drop of the ocean of all consciousness, environed by mind and matter. It is identified with the body and its environments, so much so, that it has forgotten its real nature. Man is composed of physical body, intellect and soul. He is intended to be perfect as his Father in heaven is. 'Perfection' is his goal. He should develop all around. Man has developed physically and intellectually a great deal. He has found so many systems of medical science keep his body fit, viz., Ayurvedic, Unani, Allopathy, Homeopathy and Naturopathy. He has invented Radio, Television, Aeroplanes, Rockets, Missiles, Atom Bombs and Hydrogen Bombs etc, But we are sorry to say that he has developed little or nothing in the spiritual way.
to
All these scientific inventions are however being used for the destruction of all creation. The world is on the verge of devastation.
