भगवान् से अपनापन
Bhagavān-se Apnāpan
Belonging with God
Swami Ramsukhdas · Complete English reading edition
Five satsang discourses on reciprocal belonging: Bhagavān is ours, and we are Bhagavān’s.
About this edition
Belonging that deepens responsibility
This edition follows the printed book paragraph by paragraph, preserving its five authored discourses, questions and answers, scriptural verses and glosses, notes, analogies, concrete examples, and the deliberate repetitions of Swami Ramsukhdas’s satsang voice.
The official eBook PDF omits printed page 46 and duplicates printed page 15. Page 46 has been restored from an older physical Gita Press scan, and the witness change is disclosed in the edition. Modern wrapper navigation, publisher samples, the catalogue, and the duplicate scan are excluded from the translated text.
