Résumé

Author's Notes

All the 324 songs contained in this book give voice to my experience of life. I, who lived my life depending solely on the almighty Supreme Soul for support, encountered many obstacles and ordeals in my life. On the stage of this world, I have never known the joys of romantic love. I sought only the joy of knowing and uniting with God. He, who remained the beloved thief who had robbed my heart, subjected me to terrible worldly hardships. Who stood by me whenever I was surrounded by innumerable misfortunes such as egoistic tussles, jealousy, backbiting, deceit, divisive scheming, unjust slander and disappointments? Only the pure energy that is God was my life saviour. During those difficult times, I strung garlands of songs as an ode to the Supreme Soul who is the Master of my life. These songs are countless in number. Out of these, I have selected the ones most pleasing to me and those which I thought the world would like for inclusion in this book. From the songs piled in high heaps, I selected many for publication by prolonged filtering (and destroyed many more by tearing them up) in order to provide succour to other suffering souls like me.

Practices to infuse divinity in one's life, ways to overcome obstacles hampering one's life, songs to promote unity in this world and to lead a life devoid of illusory mental conflicts and egoistic constrictions, ways to attain God with the help of love and utterances of enlightened people to guide us on the path towards God are all resonant in the music of life.

I practised austerity in my personal life to buy paper required for publishing this book. I undertook fasting at night and on special days and saved money to present this book to all people I consider my own. Each song encompasses within itself the experiences of life. By understanding, singing and reflecting on the songs, these experiences will come to light. No matter how terrifying the ordeals which come one's way, if one goes forward with truth and trusting solely in the Supreme Soul who is our conscience keeper, the calamity will be averted and peace and happiness will prevail. This is my personal experience of life. May everyone know, understand, feel love, experience divine grace, sing, dance, feel, give and rise!
