Swami Sachidananda who was the foremost disciple of Papa and Mataji is the present Swami and master of the ashram

" God is ever the friend and protector of his devotees. for the self-realisation, first of all what is needed is an intense and fiery aspiration to realise the self".     " Next comes the contact of a saint to initiate you on the path and implicit faith in the teachings and guidance of the Guru, followed by earnest and intense Sadhana*.  When you have intense aspiration, god will see to it that you are taken to a saint who will thereafter guide you.  "    " Till then, pray to the lord for such a contact.  keep chanting the holy name of god as mach as possible any name that appeals to you. Read the lives and writings of saints regularly."
