Who is Baba Virsa Singh ji

Baba Virsa Singh Ji (Babaji) is considered a holy person of biblical proportions.
Since his youth, Babaji has been recognized for his powerful spirituality.

Babaji was raised in Sarawan Bodla, Punjab, India in a mud brick village.
As a youth he helped on the family’s farm until one day he was overcome
by the guilt of having caused harm to the plants he was cutting. Babaji
felt he had committed a great sin and prayed to be released from that duty.
As he prayed, painful sores began appearing on his feet rendering him unable
to stand and work. From that day on, Baba Virsa Singh Ji began meditating
under the tree known as Ber Sahib.

The followers of Babaji believe he was blessed with a vision of Baba Siri
Chand (also spelled Baba Sri Chand), the eldest son of the first Sikh Guru,
Guru Nanak. Baba Virsa Singh Ji was also reportedly given instructions through
vision by the tenth Sikh Guru, Guru Gobind Singh. The boy became recognized for
his spiritual and healing capabilities by villagers in the area. Many people
are said to have been miraculously healed at the hands of Babaji.


Babaji then moved from place to place preaching Guru Nanak's basic spiritual
program--hard work, sharing with others, and remembrance of God--and reminding
people of the eternal truths of religion, beyond any sectarian divisions.
Baba Virsa Singh Ji also began developing flourishing farms and spiritual
communities in previously harsh and barren environments. Though the largest
of such farms is known as Shiv Sadan, on the shores of Ganges in Uttar Pradesh,
the most well-known community is Gobind Sadan in Delhi, India.



Though Babaji never received any formal education, scholars have sought his
guidance and knowledge on many topics. Government officials, religious leaders,
scientists, businesspeople, and the hardworking poor also seek Babaji’s
guidance and blessings. Though he makes no claims of being a Guru, Baba Virsa Singh
Ji models all of his practical teachings after those of the Sikh Gurus,
as well as those of prophets of all religions. He stresses that religious divisions
are the creations of humans and not of God or God’s prophets. To emphasize
appreciation of all prophets, he celebrates their birthdays on a large and
joyful scale at Gobind Sadan.

Draw Energy From The Power of Naam - Baba Virsa Singh ji

Draw Energy From The Power of Name

Reciting the name of God, Naam , is a way of thanking and praising the Nami who is the omnipresent and timeless creator. When you recite Naam and love God without any motive, He cleanses your mind. There is light in your heart, and the Naam heals your mind, eliminating all negative thoughts; only positive thoughts remain. The hidden joy, love and fearlessness within you will become manifest. It is not that God wants our praise. The effect on Naam works on us. our body is just a house where we live. Our life is governed by our Karmas, the effects on our life of our sanskars, our habitual thoughts and actions from this life and from previous births. Our Karmas are like great waves that are not under our control. Naam breaks those waves.

As you recite Naam when you are worrying – through word, thought and every breath – those waves start to break up here and there. As you recite Naam there is a small break in that train of thoughts. You feel, “It will be okay”. But at this stage you are still reciting Naam only with your tongue. Your thoughts and your awareness are not on Naam, and soon your mind returns to its old pattern.

As you go on reciting Naam, you will experience a little light inside, a brief moment of Samadhi, a kind of spiritual absorption. But then mind starts running away again at great speed, and the little bit of light you perceived ‘disappears’. Then a longing for God may begin to grow in you, although it is very faint at first. As you are singing or reciting Naam, you may experience a brief communion with the Nami.

To become close to God, focus on your mind on your Isht or that form of God in whom you have Faith. At first, your Isht may seem just a faint image in your mind, but gradually its presence becomes a reality. Slowly that power gives your mind confidence and you begin loving that Isht you are trying to focus your attention on. It takes a long time but gradually you will feel the presence of your Isht within you.

Once you feel your Isht inside you, through the power of Naam, you will begin to see that your Ishtis actually controlling everything outside you as well. You will see your Isht is pervading everywhere nad everything.

As you keep reciting Naam, whenever you begin to feel anger, greed or ego, the feeling does not last long. It moves aside. Why? Naam is washing away the dirt of your past tendencies; the light of divine wisdom is burning up your past actions. Gradually, you cease to feel anger or greed and you feel that you are nothing great. You become very humble.

All ignorance ceases as light of Naam manifests fully. If you reach this stage of enlightenment through continual recitation of Naam and concentration on the Nami, you will see only God everywhere. Like God, you will feel neither enmity nor fear. You will recognize that the Nami is sustaining and controlling all life. Naam will make your actions bright and will give you clear inner vision, truthfulness, renunciation, the desire to help those in need, and the power to do anything, for the power of the Nami has manifest in you.
