CW,
Come on now, if you are proud of m and your
'relationship' with m, surely you are not ashamed
to share a few lines of the devotional song called
'Arti' that you sang to him at Amaroo. You said
before that you can't remember all the lines. Ok,
fair enough, but how about a few lines? If you
couldn't remember any of the lines, how could you
have sung Arti to him?
I don't know, maybe you need some help
remembering. The Arti that was sung to him years
ago (by many premies twice a day) is shown below
(from the Arti
page on this site). I asked you before if you
sang 'You are the superior power in person' to him
and you said you did not. Well I didn't remember
correctly (a good sign!), the line was actually
'Our Lord is the superior power in person I bow
down before such a wonderful Lord.' Did you sing
this to him? Note also that after singing Arti to
m, we would bow down before him. Did you bow down
before him after singing Arti to him?
So did you sing this song to him at Amaroo?
Which lines are still the same and which are
different? I would suppose the Hindi lines have
been removed or translated. Care to supply some
details? If you don't answer, we can only assume
that you sang something close to this as part of
your practice of 'Knowledge'. What were you saying
before, that 'Knowledge' is only about your
personal experience? But later you said it is a
'package deal', I suppose this song is part of the
package. Are you proud of this song?
Arti:
Guru Brahma, Guru Vishnu,

Meditation begins in the form of our master,
Adoration begins at the feet of our lord,
Concentration begins in the words of our
master,
Liberation begins in the grace of our lord.
Jai Gurudev Maharaj Ji
Your glory fills the world
Protector of the weary and the weak
You bring the death of attachment
You bring the mind true detachment
Save us from the ocean deep
Jai Dev, Jai Satgurudev
Creator, Preserver, Destroyer
Bow their heads and pray to You
All bow and pray to You
Scriptures sing Your glory
Heaveny hosts sing Your praises
Your virtues are ever true
Jai Dev, Jai Satgurudev
Chanting, fasting, charity, austerity
never bring you knowledge of the soul
will never reveal your soul
without the grace of satguru
without the Knowledge of Satguru
rites and rituals never reach the goal
Jai Dev, Jai Satgurudev
In the river of bondage to maya
All are swept out to sea
All are sinking in the depths of the sea
Guru's boat is the holy name
Guru's ship is the holy word
In seconds he has set us free
Jai Dev, Jai Satgurudev
Anger, desire, attachments
Rob us of eternal life
Take away our heavenly life
Satguru gives us true Knowledge
Satguru is eternal Knowledge
The sword that kills our problem life
Jai Dev, Jai Satgurudev
Religions harp their own glories
Call to follow their own path
Welcome me to follow their own way
The essence of all was revealed
The seed of all was revealed
I walk on the true way today
Jai Dev, Jai Satgurudev
Nectar from Satguru's feet is
Holy and it cleans us of our sins
So sacred in cleaning us of sin
When he speaks, darkness flies away
When he speaks, darkness cannot stay
Doubts removed, new life then begins
Jai Dev, Jai Satgurudev
Mine, thine, Heart, Time
Give them to the lotus feet of love
Give them to the lotus feet of the Lord
Give yourself to Satguru
Sacrifice yourself to Satguru
Be united with the blissful Truth
Jai Dev, Jai Satgurudev
Bible, Gita, the Koran
Sing the glory of Your Name
They all sing the glory of Your Name
Angels sing Your great glory
Heavenly hosts sing Your praises
They find no end to Your fame
Jai Dev, Jai Satgurudev
Desires have robbed me and left me
Trapped in the darkness of the night
Yes, they've trapped me in the darkness of the
night
Guru gives holy Name and Light
Guru gives Holy Name and Sight
Cross the ocean by His Love and Light
Jai Dev, Jai Satgurudev
Many past forms you have taken
Now we have come in your control
Again You have come to save the soul
In this time of darkness
To lead Your devotees from darkness
You have come as Hansa the pure soul
Jai Dev, Jai Satgurudev
Come to the shelter of Guru's grace
Come with your heart and your soul
Bring Him your heart and your soul
Cross the worldly ocean
Cross it by your devotion
And attain the supreme goal
Jai Dev, Jai Satgurudev
Jai Gurudev Maharaj Ji

Our Lord is the maker of all things created
He keeps them and brings them
all home to his word
Our Lord is the superior power in person
I bow down before such a wonderful Lord.
