Hazur Baba Sawan Singh on the Afterlife, A Matter of Life and Death: "Coming back here again or going up within after death depends on the tendency of the attention."
Sant Dadu Dayal: "Where you keep your mind while living, to that abode shall you go after death. The soul finds lodging in a place wherein it has hitherto been immersed." (Mystic Poem of Dadu)
According to the Path of the Masters, though the body and brain of the individual will die, the subtle bodies as well as the soul live on. Those subtle bodies include the causal body and the mental body. The thoughts, impressions and attachments of a lifetime that have accumulated are indeed part of one's destiny and also live on. Thus the need to do as much simran and meditation as possible during this life to live in Divine Grace and "Lay up for yourselves treasures in heaven."
Baba Ram Singh: "Do your Bhajan Simran [meditation] every day. Do it for two, two and a half hours every day so that you are able to reduce the burden of your karmas. And also, the Grace of the Master is there with you, and He also reduces that burden for you. That way, at the time of death, we do not have to suffer a lot of these karmas on our body." (satsang discourse, Masters Tell Us, Again And Again, That Life Is Not Permanent)
Santji: "So why do the Saints always emphasize doing Simran [remembrance of God and the names of God]? Why do they make us do Simran? They make us do the practice of Simran so that at the time of our death either we should be doing Simran or we may have the Form of the Master within us. If we are doing Simran, or if we are remembering the Form of the Master, we will go direct to Him." (The Light of Ajaib)
Baba Somanath: "Constantly repeat Naam and Naam alone... Then you will find rest; you will not take birth again." (Bhajan of Baba Somanath)
Hazur Baba Sawan Singh Ji: "Therefore, a devotee of the Current should never fear death.... His efforts should be to finish his work here and now *." (Foreign Correspondence) * Note: Take this golden opportunity during life to make spiritual progress during meditation here and now.
"Fix your mind within by following the Path of the Sound Current. A yearning will arise; make then an intense and anguished call. Repeat the Name of your Beloved, day and night, again and again and again. With care in thought, word and deed, you will cross to the other shore." (Dadu Dayal, Sant of Rajasthan)
In Divine Love (Bhakti), Light, and Sound, At the Feet of the Masters, Radhaswami,
