We are mentioning below popular quotation about knowledge, enlightenment, God-realization of SHRI ABHIRAM PARAMAHANSA DEV
You are a mere dumb instrument and I am the player. I choose and play the tune according to my will and desire.
Death of the physical body is never the end, till the last unsufferred deed is suffered without desire.
Your noble work should coincide with your words and thought. Mere recitation of the word sugar will never bring sweetness to the mouth.
Never wander insanely for the vision of the Lord. If your devotion is perfect and heart stainless, the Lord will appear before you in flesh and blood.
The disciple, who engages himself in the loving service of his Guru with reverential attitude, attains the highest of Supreme knowledge.
