What is RadhaSwami? On the Origin of the Sacred Name of God RadhaSoami - Sant Mat Satsang Podcast

This is one of my most important podcasts of the last five years. Today we explore the origin, usage, and meaning of the Sacred Name of God Radhasoami (pronounced "Ra-Dha-Swam-e"). There is background shared on the founder and foundation of the Radhasoami Satsang. In addition to some rare history being presented here for the first time, this is primarily a Sant Mat Satsang Podcast mostly consisting of spiritual readings (Satsang Discourses) from various masters, also mystic poetry (Kabir, Sant Tulsi Sahib, Sar Bachan of Soamiji Maharaj and Prem Bani Radhasoami of Huzur Maharaj). The nature of the Supreme Being and the soul are explored, the Bhakti Path of the Lover and the Beloved. There is a discourse defining The Six Key Goals of Satsang, the format for communicating about the vital teachings of the masters on living a spiritual way of life and correct methods of meditation leading one to exploring the Inner Regions and Heavenly Realms. Shared are the Four Essential Eternal Truths ("the Four Sats"), The Seven Devotional Practices of Sant Mat, also, "The Cosmos Is A Symphony of Vibrating Currents or Strings", by Huzur Maharaj Rai Saligram.
"The place where people are always talking about the secrets of the path of Surat Shabd Yoga, is true Satsang." (Huzur Maharaj Rai Saligram)
Sant Tulsi Sahib: "O Jiva [captive Soul somewhere in time]! Give up all blind adherences and beliefs, concentrate within and seek the Supreme Being there, adopting Him alone as your goal. Do ponder over what I say and see for yourself with eyes wide open that there is none in this world whom you can call your own. You should adopt the Supreme Being alone as your prop and support."
Kabir: "Keep on reciting God's name, and you will live pleasantly in the world. With true love as your master, your life-map will change."
"Resting in the protection of Radhasoami Dayal [the Compassionate, Merciful Lord of the Soul], one should give up all fears, worries, doubts and reveries. Relying on His mercy, one should become free from care and anxiety. It is only when one becomes care-free in respect of this region [the material universe, pinda desh, samsara,], that one will be able to perform Arti [worship, meditation]. This is what the cushion of a care-free state means." (Discourses of Babuji Maharaj)
"The Supreme Father is a vast homogeneous Ocean of Pure Spirit. He is perfect, sufficient in Himself to Himself, in an ecstatic state of love and bliss. Before creation, He alone was conscious. There was none but He to see, and none but Him to be seen. There was only the Lord immersed in His own rapturous bliss. That Limitless Reservoir of Love which alone was in existence, with none to adore or exchange love with Him, was an Ocean of Absolute Bliss (ananda). His primary characteristic is love... He is nothing but a Vast Reservoir of Love and Bliss." (Myron Phelps, Phelps Notes)

Good to listen do you have sarbachan bartic full audio

[@SpiritualAwakeningRadio]

I don't believe anyone has come out with an official audio book of the Prose or Poetry. However, since all three volumes of Sar Bachan are at the Internet Archive, there is an audio option there. With each book at the Internet Archive there is a headphone icon one can click on for audio book. There is also an icon for speed, and another icon to adjust the language and voice of the text to speech. I always choose "UK, English Male" and slow the playback speed down a notch to "0.75". There are also text to speech extensions can install on a web browser or PDF file and do the same thing. I find text to speech audio to be very useful for magazine articles and books. Here's the link to a version of the Sar Bachan Prose that has an audio option that works (right type of PDF file that will work): archive.org/details/SarBachanRadhasoamiProseDayalBaghTranslation/page/n13 Here's a link to Sar Bachan Poetry volume one: archive.org/details/SarBachanRadhasoamiPoetryPartOneSoamibagh

[@kcowgirl7840]

Thank you for links to Sar Bachan poetry and prose and directions to comfortably listen to audio. The initial audio that came up in the past was unpleasant to me, but I'm looking forward to making these adjustments.
