[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 116781, member: 35"] Mohinder Sahni ji A unique insight is given by your comment: [COLOR=Green][I][FONT=Verdana]Most of the authors consider these steps of Spiritual stages to be achieved in sequence one after the other. However, I have observed them to be with different approaches concurrently guiding the devotees to the goal. I think one cannot adopt any step for Dharam Khand or reach Gian Khand without the saram (efforts) and Grace (Karam Khand) of God. Further, if these five steps are to be put into sequence, believing them one after the other, in that case Saram Khand, making an effort by the devotee, should be the first. It is only after one decides to move on the path of God that one will take the step of practicing Dharam, the righteous deeds.
