The Living Transmission of the Sacred Naam
The spiritual mission of Baba Siri Chand did not end with his earthly life. According to a revered spiritual tradition, Baba Siri Chand later appeared in a vision to the great saint Baba Virsa Singh, entrusting him with a sacred mission. During this mystical encounter, Baba Siri Chand instructed him to recite and share a profoundly transformative Divine Name with humanity:
Eck Ong Kar Sat Naam Siri Wahe Guru
Baba Virsa Singh faithfully carried this sacred transmission throughout his life, introducing countless seekers to this powerful Naam. He taught that this Divine vibration awakens the soul, purifies the heart, quiets the mind, and reconnects the individual with the Infinite Presence of God.
During Dr. Joseph Michael Levry’s time in India, Baba Virsa Singh personally transmitted this sacred Naam to him, entrusting him with its practice and its meaning. Dr. Levry later carried this mantra to students around the world, sharing it as a universal meditation for inner transformation, healing, and Divine remembrance. Through this unbroken spiritual transmission, the sacred Naam continues to inspire people from every culture and tradition to experience the One Infinite Creator directly within themselves. In that same spirit, this Naam is offered as a free gift on the Naam Eck Ong Kar album.

Since then, Dr. Levry has led massive Global Gatherings for Peace and Healing around the world, with attendance growing to hundreds of thousands of people. These large global events unite people from every background, using the sacred vibration of Naam to hold a collective intention for global peace and healing.
This Is The Story as told by Maharaj Baba Virsa Singh
“One day I had a vision of Baba Siri Chand confidentially instructing me in the Naam. After that, I sat in meditation continuously. Then Baba Siri Chand said, ‘I want to introduce you to my father.’ (…) Guru Nanak approached wearing a very long robe, brown like the color of a mouse. He wore wooden sandals with a raised peg between the big toe and the toes. He had a red cap, his beard was gray, and he was very tall, above six feet. Guru Nanak said, ‘Ik Onkar Sat Nam Siri Wahe Guru.’ Baba Siri Chand has given me the same Naam. Repeat it again and again and give it to others also. Guru Gobind Singh also gave the same Naam in the same way, removing all doubt.”
Guru Nanak, the Power of Naam, and the Path of Divine Remembrance
Tradition holds that Patanjali, the great sage regarded as the father of Yoga, foretold Guru Nanak's coming some 2,180 years in advance, naming him an extraordinary Master who would illuminate humanity during the Kali Yuga. Guru Nanak would introduce a unique sacred mantra unlike any used in previous ages: Waheguru, meaning "The Wondrous Lord." This forms the heart of the sacred mantra Eck Ong Kar Sat Naam Siri Waheguru. This Divine Name became the spiritual heartbeat of Guru Nanak's teachings and the foundation of the practice of Naam. Guru Nanak transmitted the sacred current of Naam to Baba Siri Chand, who later entrusted it to Baba Virsa Singh, who subsequently transmitted it to Dr. Levry. Through this unbroken lineage, the mantra continues to be practiced as a path of Divine remembrance, inner awakening, and union with the Infinite.
A parallel account from the Vishnu Purana holds that Lord Vishnu told the sage Umbreek Rishi He would return in the Kali Yuga under the name Nanak, fittingly read as Na-Anak, "Not another, but the One," echoing Guru Nanak's central teaching that there is only One Supreme Reality. That teaching began with Ik Oankar, One Universal Creator, the source and sustainer of all things. It deepened when, after emerging from three days beneath the Kali Bein River, Guru Nanak revealed the Mool Mantra, Ik Ong Kar Sat Naam, opening words of the Siri Guru Granth Sahib. He later gave his son Baba Siri Chand the formula Ek Ong Kar Sat Gur Prasad, a spiritual technology for awakening the heart and opening a channel for Divine Grace.
Saints across traditions have echoed this same truth. Among them was Tulsidas, who wrote: Kalyug Kewal Naam Adhara Simar Simar Nar Utarahin Para, meaning: "In the Kali Yuga, the Divine Name is the greatest support. By remembering it again and again, one crosses the ocean of worldly suffering."
Whether received as prophecy, scripture, or living transmission, the message is one: there is One God, and the Naam is the bridge between the human soul and the Infinite, a path of remembrance available to every sincere seeker.
One Eternal Light
Within this spiritual tradition, Mahavatar Babaji is understood as an eternal manifestation of Divine Consciousness, while Baba Siri Chand is revered as an embodiment of that same timeless Light. They are seen not as separate personalities, but as expressions of one eternal mission:
To awaken humanity to its Divine origin.
Whether one understands these accounts as sacred history, mystical tradition, or symbolic teachings, their message remains universal: Meditate deeply. Remember God constantly. Serve humanity selflessly. Awaken the Divine within.
