Shriji Maharaj says, “Only one who has love for God having become gunatit, is brahmaswarup [i.e. brahamrup].”

Vachanamrut Vartal-8
Describing a method of meditation, Shriji Maharaj says, “When one wishes to offer puja to a deity, the deity accepts the puja only after one becomes as pure as the deity. Similarly, one who keeps his vrutti on God’s form should, according to the method prescribed in the Sankhya scriptures, realise his own self to be distinct from the three bodies – sthul, sukshma and karan; and only after attaining atma-realisation, should he fix his vrutti on God’s form. While repeatedly fixing his vrutti in such a manner, when his vrutti is eventually absorbed into God’s form, that state has been defined as sleep for a meditating yogi; but a yogi’s sleep is never like the state of being eclipsed during deep sleep.”
