‘<strong>Yogi</strong> <strong>Ramsurat</strong>kumar could see Reality, that is to say the noumenon, what is hidden beyond<br />

appearance (phenomenon), beyond sensible experience. On the contrary, what our eyes see<br />

is only maya (appearance, illusion), lila (cosmic play). All <strong>Yogi</strong>s’ devotees will recall Bhagavan<br />

sitting with us or walking among us, and all of a sudden looking up, and after a few seconds<br />

bursting into laughter. He laughed heartily. We had the feeling that he saw something none of<br />

the devotees was able to perceive.’<br />

‘Therefore, at a higher level – the one of <strong>Yogi</strong> <strong>Ramsurat</strong>kumar – what is generally called evil,<br />

violence, abuse, has its cosmic function. So, even what in human eye appears as the most<br />

tragic evil, ultimately is nothing but good: it is God’s grace.’<br />

‘Bhagavan gives whatever is required when we require it. The Guru does nothing for himself,<br />

everything is for us. The desperation we experience, the resentment we feel towards him, and<br />

the estrangement we ourselves bring about, all these emotions are natural and necessary<br />

stages in the progression towards faith, and are guided by his concern for our growth.’<br />

<strong>Yogi</strong> once asked a devotee: “Don’t you have a Guru in Calcutta?” “Yes, I have”, the man<br />

answered, and told his Guru’s name. “Then, why don’t you follow him? Why do you need to<br />

visit this beggar?”<br />

“This beggar has not built an ashram or temple. This beggar has not written any books either.<br />

There’s nothing about this beggar’s life that’s inspiring. But he has left a Name for mankind.<br />

Out of his love, Father has given a Name – the Name <strong>Yogi</strong> <strong>Ramsurat</strong>kumar – to humanity, for<br />

its benefit. This beggar’s Name is in the sky. This beggar’s Name can be heard in the sky.”<br />

- <strong>Yogi</strong><br />

“This beggar has no mind. So, this beggar has no plans. This beggar cannot even pray. Every<br />

thought, every word, every gesture of this beggar is controlled by Father who runs the whole<br />

cosmos” - <strong>Yogi</strong><br />
