Dear associates in the Path,

My humble Pranam to all of you on this happy occasion of the celebrations of 111th birthday of our beloved and eternally present Master Sri Ramchandraji Maharaj of Shahjahanpur, U.P India. As the Special Personality He has been working for the past 65 years relentlessly for the change and transformation of human nature. Though the new Era has started with the Advent of Revered Lalaji Maharaj it is only after the work of transformation was taken over by our Master things started revealing themselves. Many of the statements made by the Master in the chapter My Vision of his book Reality at Dawn have already come true and many more are in the offing. We need to have faith and courage to face the events that are unfolding. By repeated exposure to Pranahuti we are coming closer to Him and His plans and are participating in this mission.

The time has come for us to learn the Lessons of Enlightenment, for the ushering of the New Era with full force. The Lessons that are being offered by the Master in the core of our hearts is aimed at facilitating the unfolding of the New Era, which symbolizes the restoration of humans to their intended evolutionary pathway, which allows for the maximum evolution and expansion of Universal Consciousness. The lessons are offered in each of our hearts and it is only the total commitment to the Master and his cause that enables us to listen to them. It is no privilege of any single person, however great he/she may pose to be, to receive the messages. It is an era of renaissance through which noble entities should awaken from the sleep-inducing, dogmatic and manipulative assertions of some self-styled gurus and mahatmas of the unfortunate mankind who fall a prey to them, and realign with the divine source of universal knowledge which lies within.

It is a time to celebrate the reconnection between the individual soul and the totality of All That Is or it is time for the fusion of the Atman and Brahman in every case of divine expression as a conscious thinking entity. It is a time to become receptive to the Divine Grace, the love and faith that has been placed in humankind. It is a time to honour the faith and to acknowledge and reclaim the resources and abilities that empower humans. It is time to live up to true and full potential rather than allow ourselves to remain mired and enslaved within our own earthly and materialistic illusions. It is a time for every spiritually aspiring person to rise up to the challenge of realigning the spirit, the will, the mind and the body. It is time to develop our special will and undertake the tasks given to us and complete the same. It is our duty to beautify the universe with the wisdom of the Masters and live up to expectations. The new Era is a time of joyous self expression.

The echo of Masters' voice is there in each of our hearts and instructions from Him provide the light and wisdom but it is the task of the individual to will and choose the pathway of the divine. For this we need to have the firm faith that we are prepared for the task by the Master. We should know that our innate capacity to think and grow, to know and experience and attune to the inner guidance is fully developed by him through the various methods and mostly through the unfailing Pranahuti. Some of us doubt the obvious; obvious I call because every one of us experiences the immediate presence of the Master within our hearts. All that we require is the courage to set aside those beliefs, and habits of thought and action that we have allowed to severely limit and bind us to the bestial and lower nature of our selves. Our belief system compels us fight and die instead of love and live. There is dire need to cleanse ourselves of the dirt and dross and keep our selves pure and simple to listen to His messages. Otherwise there is every scope of getting deluded and live in illusions.

Careful listening of the voice of the Master prepares us to live the life of the new Era. The Lessons Of Enlightenment will arrive like pearls of wisdom, for each entity in unique fashion and we should be ever ready to receive His messages not only in our heart but in every pore of our being that is dedicated to His cause and purpose. By being attentive to the inner voice of the Master we will be guarding ourselves against external manipulation. Then our commitment to individual empowerment, soul development, to individual, social and spiritual evolution, to love replacing fear, to feel light replacing darkness, to the rejection of evil, and to the unwavering awareness and presence of the Universal Divine becomes complete. The presence of the Master in the heart then is worn with honour, pride, dignity and self respect that guard us from falling in any sense of the term. The Master then, is a talisman- though I do not personally like to call it so. It is obvious that to wear this talisman there has to be sincerity of purpose, awareness of spiritual impetus, acceptance of the will of Master in its totality. If however there is a denial of these we should realise that it not negates the soul, but also denies Universal Consciousness and each individual's rightful place in the connectedness of All That Is.

Those charged with the presence of the Master in the core of their hearts will always defy all sorts of attempts at deception, for, legitimate actions will always spring from the lively presence of the ever present Master which works as the driving and motivating source. Truth alone remains in all our transactions then. There will be no injury caused to any in the physical, vital, mental and aspirational planes of being. There will be no treachery and fraud committed against any person, institution or Nation. When the lessons of the Master are listened with care and attention the understanding that comes forth automatically provide testimony to the degree of our spiritual alignment to the universal good. Human nature, human behaviour, human evolution and transformation then stand out as realities accomplished. We the forerunners of the New Era have great potential to exhibit the merits of the new age. This is a time for each of us to rise to the challenge of participation in the turning of the tide and in the laying of the ground work for accelerated development. This is the time to realign with the Master the Universal Divine, the abundant and inexhaustible force of Love, the universal consciousness of all that is. The call of the divine is there and we are testimony for the same. May we all stand by the Master and His call to make this world a world of moderation, justice, equality and equanimity! May poverty of material, vital, mental and spiritual resources get annihilated in the new Era! It is no utopia; it is the reality in our hearts which over a period of short time is sure to become the truth- the truth eternal.

Pranam.
