About darshan
A discourse on the spiritual power and importance of darśan, or sacred sight.
"Through darśan, many, many sins are removed. What we call God-realization is to see God."
"As long as you have darśan, negative energy cannot attack. And constantly the nectar, the ambrosia of blessing, is flowing."
The speaker elaborates on the profound significance of receiving the gaze of a saint or Gurudev, describing it as a shower of blessings that purifies the heart and awakens energy. He explains that the eyes are a conduit for the soul and that this divine sight (darśan) is the greatest prasād (blessed offering), capable of removing sins and altering destiny. The talk references a bhajan by Mahā Holī Gurujī and draws a parallel to the loving sight of family photographs to illustrate how sight awakens corresponding feelings.
