Sant Kirpal Singh once said that "Simran is the first step (or rung) of the spiritual ladder." Indeed, simran, the remembrance and repetition of Names of God, is the foundation for living a spiritual life according to this Living Path of the Masters. Reciting the name of God is meant to "actualize the aural [sonic] dimension of [God]'s very being in the mind or heart of the practitioner, an act that is ultimately ontologically transformative." This prayer of the Name allows one to Practice the Presence of God each and every day. Simran (Manas Jap) is also the first practice of Sant Mat meditation, making it possible to concentrate at the seat of the soul, also known as the third eye center, and begin one's spiritual journey exploring Inner Space, the Realms of Within.
