Heaven on Earth - Hardcover
Language: English
Pages: 408
Preface
Heaven on Earth is the English rendering of Diwan Daryai Lal Kapur’s popular and absorbing Urdu work, which traces the beginning and growth of Dera Baba Jaimal Singh, the centre of Radha Soami Satsang Beas.
The history of the Dera is, in fact, the life story of the great Saints whose love and grace, diligence and dedication, have developed this place- once a wilderness into a flourishing centre of peace and beatitude. It is also the story of the expansion of Sant Mat, which, beginning from a tiny spot on the west bank of the river Beas,, has spread not only to every state and town of India but also every corner of the world.
Born in 1889, Diwan Sahib –as the author was popularly know-graduated in law and arts began practice as a lawyer in Jullundar. He joined the Kapurthala State Civil Service in1920 and soon rose to become a judge. He also served as finance minister in Kapurthala State.
Diwan Sahib retired in 1947 and began to spend more time in the Dera, adopting it as his permanent place of residence in 1957. Initiated by Maharaj Sawan Singh Ji in December 1910, Diwan Sahib was a devoted dispel and a keen satsangi all his life. During his last twenty years, he served the present Master, Maharaj Charan Singh Ji, as his personal secretary. Active even till his last, diwan Sahib departed from this world in 1977.
Diwan Sahib’s earlier book, Call o the Great Master, is very popular with satsangis and seekers. Several editions have been printed, and it has been translated into a number of Indian and Western languages. Heaven on Earth is the outcome of the author’s lifelong experience on the path. Having come in close contact with the three Masters at the Dera-from the Great Master
