Saar Bachan Radhasoami Vaartik

Here’s what’s available regarding English translations of Saar Bachan Radhasoami (including prose, poetry, and Vārtik), and where you might find them online or in printed form.

📘 1)

M.G. Gupta (Agra) English Translation (2001)

📌 The Quintessential Discourse Radhasoami –

English prose translation with commentary of the discourses of Sri Shiv Dayal Singh (Soamiji Maharaj), translated by M.G. Gupta and published in 2001.

This is exactly the edition you mentioned (with 362 paragraphs rendered into English).

This edition exists as a printed book and is cataloged in library systems (e.g., University of Wisconsin).

Where to find it:

• It does not appear to be freely available for full download at a public official site

• Some seekers have shared PDFs on private archives (forums/reader groups like RadhasoamiStudies @ groups.io), but these are third-party shares, not official published copies. 

  
  

  If you join that group, you can sometimes access shared translated PDFs.

📌 Many official Radhasoami satsang centers sell or distribute this edition in print — check:

• RSSB bookstore sites

• Radhasoami Satsang Soami Bagh outlets

• Specialty spiritual book retailers

📘 2)

Sar Bachan Radhasoami – Prose, older English edition

There’s an earlier English prose version translated by S. D. Maheshwari (published in 1958/1985), not M.G. Gupta but also a significant translation.

This version is often:

• Shorter than Gupta’s elaborated version

• Still widely respected and used in satsangs

Where to find it:

• Often sold by Radhasoami centers and second-hand booksellers

• May also appear in digital libraries or PDF collections from satsangi groups

📕 3)

Sar Bachan Poetry + Other Translations

Separate from the prose (discourses), there is the Sar Bachan Poetry (Chhand Band) — the verses/poetry of Soamiji Maharaj.

Some English translations of poetry exist, including by M.G. Gupta and others. These are sometimes shared as PDFs in online archives (e.g., via RadhasoamiStudies group files).

🌐 Online availability

Official satsang sites

• The Radhasoami Soami Bagh Agra official site lists many texts (Hindi originals, limited English links) and audio renditions — but direct English Vārtik PDFs may not be openly hosted. 

  
  

  (They may show “Sar Bachan (Prose) – English” entries, but not always with publicly accessible downloads.)

Audio versions

• Some sites offer Hindi audio for Saar Bachan Vārtik and other discourses — but not always with English.

Third-party shared files

• Enthusiast groups (e.g., RadhasoamiStudies @ groups.io) sometimes share Gupta translation PDFs of prose or parts of poetry. 

  
  

  Be aware these are unofficial sourced files rather than publisher releases.
