About Vedas

Vedas literally means knowledge, or to know. It refers to knowledge directly heard (Shruti) at the beginning of the world cycle. Great sages and saints of India could by constant research and investigation understand a bit of vedic knowledge. Vedas were created by the great space that is the repository of all knowledge. Sri Sri Thakur refers to this original Vedas in his messages.

What Sri Sri Thakur Said about himself

I worship knowledge and virtue. My preachings are not to be limited within the country or the time. My meditation is to practice the universal tune of mother nature. I am not a so-called Guru, nor I have become a Guru by meditation in this world. I haven't come here to pose as God or Avtar (Divine Incarnation). I am a son of the soil. I follow the laws of nature in every sphere of my life. I want to unify everyone with the help of this universal tune. Ram Narayan Ram.

Few Words from Direct Disciples

Professor P.K.Roy, former Principal of famous Bengal Engineering Collage, Howrah, and a very close devotee of Sri Sri Thakur, said " Sri Sri Balak Brahmachari is the great exponent of a new cult of supreme knowledge and love. He holds before the world the real nature of religion liberated from all dogma and superstition. Although Sri Sri Thakur was endowed with great spiritual powers right from his birth, he associated with common people in a most simple and unobtrusive way, so much so that it was often difficult to realize the extraordinary spiritual powers he hid within himself. He lived with common people and solved problems of millions of his disciples and devotees."
