Sant Mat, Sant Thakar Singh
What can you expect when coming to a Sant Mat Master?
The first thing to expect when you meet a Master of Sant Mat such as Sant Thakar Singh is that the Master will have your highest benefit in mind, in the most selfless and charitable sense. The second thing to expect is that you will be introduced to a path of self-introspection and personal transformation whose only limit to your full benefit is the time and engagement with which you are able to apply the practice.
A Sant Mat Master will teach you how to look inside yourself in quiet stillness, to focus your attention on your inner experience. This inner experience is yours; it is within you. It is an experience which is neither a result of sensory input nor produced by the mind, but rather stems from that eternal, highest part of you. It is the part of you called the "soul", and which for the most part has been ignored both by the physical sciences, intellectual education, and even many forms of yoga and meditation whose focus may be on the body and mind visualization.
Sant Mat Meditation is unique in that it does not emphasize the focus on bodily and mental exercises and instead puts emphasis on the personal, first-hand experience of the soul, as perceived as an inner light and an inner sound.
The process of self-introspection is very practical, and requires daily engagement in order to gain prowess in stilling the mind and focusing the attention. You can expect this process of gradually gaining control of your own attention to take time. The application of a full gamut of helping factors renders the practice more fruitful. These helping factors include a strict adherence to a healthy, lacto-vegetarian diet which is the diet most conducive to meditation; service to others, also called seva; attendance at regular meditation gatherings with other students of Sant Mat; the keeping of a daily introspection diary in order to better observe and weed out imperfections of character; and the sweet remembrance of God throughout the day.
Sant Thakar Singh taught meditation on inner light and sound or Sant Mat. His services were always free of charge and directed to seekers of all religions.
