The Inner Shabd was the same in all ages and the same for all people. Innumerable are the benefits of Dhun Atmak Naam and hardly any of the Varan Atmak Naam.ДЄll names that could be brought into verbal expression were Varan Atmak and were therefore outer and subject to variation from person to person and from people to people. Had not the Agra Saint Himself said in Bachan 115, Part II of Sar Bachan prose: He respected the term вЂRadhasoamiвЂ™ as yet another attempt at naming the Nameless, but could not accept the special mystic significance that began to be given it after Swami JiвЂ™s death. It is just likely that these occurred in His original poetical compositions as well, but were substituted by the word вЂRadhasoamiвЂ™ for purposes of homogeneity, when they вЂ“ some fifty or sixty in number вЂ“ were collected some six years after His death along with many of Hazur Maharaj Rai SaligramвЂ™s 2 compositions in the volume entitled, Sar Bachan, (poetry), in which вЂRadhasoamiвЂ™ word stands either for the Ultimate Goal вЂ“ Soami or Anami вЂ“ or for the Guru.Д«aba Ji was prepared to go thus far and no further. He used those terms freely in His discourses and letters rather than the word вЂRadhasoami.вЂ™ Swami Ji Himself, like His Master, invoked the Supreme Reality as Soami or more often still, as Sahib Soami and Satguru Soami. I address as вЂSoamiвЂ™ the Creator of all that is. Tulsi Sahib had spoken in a similar vein: Soami is the Lord of all creation and the Master of all the souls. Kot Brahmand ka thakur Soami Sarabh jian ka data reh. Time and the Timeless both spring from a single source. Kal Akal Khasam ka Keena eh parpanch badhawan. The Reality which Swami Ji attempted to point out by the term вЂRadhasoamiвЂ™ had been referred to by His predecessor by other names, like Khasam or Swami вЂ“ Supreme Lord Maha Dayal вЂ“ All Grace Nirala вЂ“ the Mysterious Nirankar вЂ“ Formless and Anami вЂ“ Nameless. Had not the authors of the вЂVishnu SahasranamaвЂ™ and the вЂJaap SahibвЂ™ coined hundreds of names for the All-Merciful Creator? Then wherefore object to вЂRadhasoami.вЂ™ He explained that the Absolute in His ultimate form was formless and indescribable, yet Saints in their zeal to point Him out to their disciples, had given Him countless names. Radha is the name of the primal soul current (Surat) Soami is the name of the primal source of Shabd or the Word. Radha aad surat ka naam Soami aad Shabd nij dham. When Babu Sawan Singh Ji objected to the use of this new word at Murree in 1894, Baba Ji, as we have already seen, picked up a copy of Sar Bachan and read out the verse:

He simply accepted the word as yet another name for the Unnameable Infinite interpreting it on the outer plane to stand for the disciple, Radha, and the Guru, Soami, and on the inner one for the soul current, Radha, and its source, Soami. When Swami Ji began using the term вЂRadhasoamiвЂ™ brought into vogue by His devoted and beloved disciple Rai Saligram, He did not, Baba Ji 1 affirmed, begin a new faith or creed. And let the Satsang continue as before and the same shall flourish and prosper. The Radhasoami faith is of SaligramвЂ™s making, but let it also continue. My Path was the Path of Sat Naam and Anami Naam. Lest there still be any doubt lingering in the minds of the sceptics, Swami Ji Who, till the last, continued initiating people into the secret of the traditional five-melodied Melody вЂ“ Panch Shabd Dhunkar Dhun вЂ“, significantly enough on the last day of His departure from the earth-plane, cleared His position beyond the least shadow of doubt by declaring: The quotations taken from the book вЂA Great Saint вЂ“ Baba Jaimal SinghвЂ™ and from private correspondence of Baba Jaimal Singh in a very clear and comprehensible way bring out the true meaning of Radhasoami and make clear the position of Swami Ji and Baba Jaimal Singh Ji against the term and its new use: The following compilation of several quotations serves the purpose to clarify the widespread misapprehensions concerning the term вЂRadhasoami.вЂ™ The quotations make clear that вЂRadhasoamiвЂ™ is not a new faith or creed which was founded by Swami Shiv Dayal Singh Ji and Baba Jaimal Singh Ji Maharaj, as it is intentionally wrongly stated in the world wide web and other media.
