There is a spiritual core at the heart or center of the various world religions: schools of saints, friends of God, lovers of the Beloved, gnostics, solitaries and sufis. Examples of contemplative meditation practice, also Inner Light and Sound experiences present in Christian mystical texts are provided. Masters do not divide the world, nor do they condemn any existing religion or community. They always inspire us to get initiated into the Mysteries of spiritual practice, to go within and see what the Reality is.

In some sense one can say that after the time of the apocryphal writings, Gnostic texts and the mystics that composed them, the inspiration lived on with the Syriac mystics between the 4th and 8th Centuries AD.“Saints and Mahatmas do not say that any religion or any community is bad. They say that you should remain in whatever religion you are born in. It is a good thing to be born into a religion. But they also say that the religions and the communities should serve as schools and colleges for us, where we can learn about God Almighty. And if we go deep into the basic teachings of those religions, we will find that the practice of the Surat Shabda Naam is always there: it is always taught that by doing the meditation of Shabd Naam, we can be liberated. But in those religions we do not have practical people, but only those who read and teach the outer teachings; and that is why they teach us that we can get liberation by only following rites and rituals and doing outer things. So, when we follow the religions, we get stuck in that kind of thing, so that we think that we can achieve liberation and realize God Almighty by only doing the rites and rituals; and then we do not feel that it is important to do the meditation of Shabd Naam…“Mahatmas tell us, ‘Just as the sun does not have any caste or creed – he gives life to everyone – in the same way, God Almighty does not have any caste or creed either. Those who do His devotion, who devote themselves to Him – He becomes theirs.’” (Santji/Ajaib Singh, In the Palace of Love)Margery Kempe: "I heard a noise like wind blowing in my ears and knew it for the Sound of the Holy Spirit which became like the voice of a dove. When the Lord spoke to me I lost all sense of time. I did not know if he was with me five or six hours or only one. It was so holy and full of grace that I felt as if I had been in heaven.” (The Mirror of Love)“Saints and Mahatmas do not say that any religion or any community is bad. They say that you should remain in whatever religion you are born in. It is a good thing to be born into a religion. But they also say that the religions and the communities should serve as schools and colleges for us, where we can learn about God Almighty. And if we go deep into the basic teachings of those religions, we will find that the practice of the Surat Shabda Naam is always there: it is always taught that by doing the meditation of Shabd Naam, we can be liberated.” (Santji/Ajaib Singh, In the Palace of Love)The Yoga of SOUND – Exploring Inner Sound Meditation (Auditory Mysticism, Surat Shabd Yoga) in the Sacred Texts of the Great World Religions, Gnostic Traditions, and the Path of the Masters (Sant Mat, Radhasoami):https://santmatradhasoami.blogspot.com/2013/09/the-yoga-of-sound-exploring-sound.htmlJulian P.
