    uTe following hymn was dedicated to Sawan Singh by Kirpal

    (see photo).

    Gods, men and angels other thanthese was He, my Emperor was su-perior in both the worlds. When theEye was opened, in this man-bodyGod appeared.

    And oh Lord, my idea of Him waschanged He was found to be some-thing else. In all Glory was God therein Him, and in all finality He ap-peared in God. My Master was notseparate from Him. He was not dif-ferent from my Master.

    Saturated in Oneness, through the Great Love, God was enchant-ed with Him, and so was He with God. He is the permanence inthe body, mind and world. Troughout this dissolving sphere Heremains the Unchangeable Permanence.

    Come whilst at Satsang let us drink in the Oneness through Hiseyes, who knows when the Doomsday may come, with the conse-quences thereof.
