Dr Shiam Lal Saxena
Born	January 1, 1901
Died	December 29, 1987

Pujya Babuji Maharaj or Dr Shiam Lal Saxena (born 1, Jan,1901, in Uttar Pradesh and died 29, Dec 1987) was a guru who taught spirituality via Sant Mat (Hindi: संत मत). Sant mat is a collection of teachings and experiments by various saints. It teaches the way of life by which these saints have achieved Divine peace records the secrets that they passed down to their disciples.Four Pillars of Sant mat: The way to salvation:1. Sanskar, 2. Sadguru,3. Satnam 4. Satsang

Sanskar: Thoughts make the mind and the mind entails the continuous flow of thoughts. Thoughts are multifarious and fragmented and they direct the action of man, through desire, anger etc. Human thoughts can be pious & pure or vicious and evil. These thoughts and actions make our sanskar and they guide and instruct the birth of man. Those who have the sanskar of bhakti, prem are born with those sanskars and can attain enlightenment. Such men are the chosen ones, the ones entrusted for Parmarth work. Sadguru:Sadguru are the saints who have attained enlightenment of Sachkhand. They come to enlighten other ailing men and guide other people onwards their path to salvation. One cannot attain salvation without Sadguru. He acts as a living torch to the abhyasis. Satnam:Satnam is the name which is given to the disciple by their Sadguru at the time of Diksha. Satnam is pivotal in the sense that it makes the abhyasis aware of the pitfalls of Maya and helps him in his personal battles against wrongdoing. Satsang:Satsang is essential for abhyasis because only through satsang one can experience the immense and manifold experiences of spirituality. Satsang induces stability and calmness of the senses. Satsang literally signifies the sang of one’s guru. He bestows his supreme love on his disciples in satsang. The three moolmantras: Jap –This is the first step in Abhyaas. Bhajan, prayer and mantras all form a part of Jap. Jap in which the tongue, the mann (heart) and the Chitta are moved by the same spirit. Jap is also necessary to keep one’s mann constantly drawn in. Sumiran –Sumiran is in effect the constant remembrance of one’s Guru. This is the easiest way for one to get finayat in one’s Guru leading to salvation. Only those can attain sumiran in true sense who have had the gracious association of one’s Guru. Dhyaan –Dhyan signifies meditation. Meditation is the gist of (Pooja) worship. In this stage one receives the Anubhav (experience) of spiritual attainment. The practice of dhyan should be directed in such a way that there are no distractions of any worldly thought except the thought of one’s Guru. Pujya Babuji Maharaj has also established Ramasharm satsang at Ghaziabad and have many disciples in different parts of the world.
