Sat Saheb

Kabir dandvatam Govind guru, bandhu avijan soye.

Pahle bhae pranam tin, namo jo aage hoye.

Jai jai Satguru mere ki, jai jai Satguru mere ki.

Sada sahibi sukh se basiyo, Satlok ke dere ki.

Jai jai Satguru mere ki, jai jai Satguru mere ki.

Sada sahibi  sukh se basiyo, us Amarapuri ke dere ki.

Nirvikar nirbhay tuhi, aur sakal bhaymaan.

Eji sadho aur sakal bhaymaan.

Sab par teri sahibi, sab par teri sahibi, tujh par sahib na.

Nirvikar nirbhay tuhi.

Children!  Guru has great importance in the spiritual path. It's because the Supreme God itself has taken the form of Gurus in all the ages.

As the revered Kabir Saheb once said:

Guru saman nahi data re jag mein, guru saman nahin data.

Guru saman nahi data re jag mein, guru saman nahin data.

Vastu agocchar dei Satguru ne bhali batai bata.

Vastu agocchar dei Satguru ne bhali batai bata.

 Kaam krodh kaid kar dare, lobh ke ghaali natha.

Guru saman nahi data re jag mein, guru saman nahi data.

Kaal kare so haal hi kar le, pher mile nahi saatha.

Chaurasi mein jaaye padoge, bhugtoge din raata.

Guru saman nahi data re jag mein, guru saman nahi data.

Shabad pukar-pukar kehte hain, kar lo santan saatha.

Shabad pukaar-pukaar kehte hain, kar lo santan saatha.

Seva bandagi karo Satguru ki, kaal nivaavai maatha.

Guru saman nahi data re jag mein, guru saman nahi data.

Kahe Kabir suno bhai dharaman, sakal karm kat jaata.

Kahe Kabir suno bhai dharaman, sakal karm kat jaata.

Parda khol milo Satguru se, pahuncho lok sunaatha.

Guru saman nahi data re jag mein, guru saman nahin data.

Kahe Kabir suno bhai dharaman, sakal karm kat jaata.

Kahe Kabir suno bhai dharaman, sakal karm kat jaata.

Parda khol milo Satguru se, pahuncho lok sunaatha.

Guru saman nahi data re jag mein, guru saman nahi data.

"Children, Satguru is the Supreme God. Just as there is someone nominated by the Prime Minister, he is his representative. He is Prime Minister only. He comes with his full power. So, towards him you have to develop faith, devotion, and reverence similar to Satguru means like the Supreme God."

 "Vastu agochar dei Satguru ne.

Secret thing, that is said ‘Satnaam’.

Garib, Soham shabad hum jag mein laaye, sar shabad humne gupt chhupaaye.

Further told that:

Koti gyaan humne jag mein bhaakhya, mool gyaan humne gupt hi raakhya."

As Garib Das Ji says :

Garib Satguru mile to ichha mete, pad mil pade samana.

Chal hansa us lok pathaun, jo aadi amar asthana.

God has said that, Kaam krodh kaid kar dare, lobh ke daali natha.

Means, He removed desires, got rid of nonsense, and inspired a journey towards the Supreme God.

Kaal kare so haal hi karale, kaal kare so haal " means do it immediately.  "Phir mile nahi satha."

You will not get this time again, such a Satguru, such a human life, and this time of Kalyug, the middle generation. Children, you will not get this opportunity again. Appreciate your luck. Thank the Supreme Father a hundred times. You are a child, you did not know, we are going to get such a precious treasure. You will gradually understand this and you will become so firm that you will even wake up at night and think about what would have happened if you had not taken refuge in the Almighty.

'It is said,

Kaal kare so haal hi kar le, phir mile nahi saatha. Chaurasi mein jaaye padoge, bhugtoge din raata.

Guru saman nahi data re jag mein

Children, I don't know about you, but I have read this a hundred times. I have told this a thousand times. Even today my heart gets restless after hearing this ‘O God!  What kind of mistake it would have made! What injustice was being done to us!'

And that's why I'm after you. Because you are also the children of that God. I, the slave, was also confused like you. I was searching for this path but I couldn't find it. So, from the day I received the name initiation, my efforts were that I should tell and explain to everyone. I didn't even have the order to give the name initiation, but much before that, I had explained to a large number of devotees. I also got people initiated by Guruji. I was in great agony, feeling that this precious life was being wasted. Now, see what each speech says. What does it inspire us to do?

If you do not do the Devotion of Supreme God Kabir Saheb, You will fall into the cycle of eighty-four and will suffer day and night. Then what is said

Shabd pukar-pukar kahat hai, kar lo santan saathaa.

Seva bandagi karo Satguru ki, kaal nivaavai maathaa.

Guru samaan nahi daata re jag mein.

Kahe Kabir suno bhai dharaman, sakal karam kat jaata.

Parda khol milo Satguru se, pahuncho lok sunaathaa.

Guru samaan nahi daata re jag mein, guru samaan nahi daata.

Now children, God explains to His beloved soul Dharamdas and through him also gives hints to us. ’Parda Khol milo Satguru se’, means do not be deceitful with your master, when you meet Satguru, speak to Him with a completely truthful and pure soul. Even a slight falsehood you do can displease the Supreme God.

‘Guru se lagan kathin hai bhai.

Lagan lage bin kaaj na sarata, lagan lage bina kaaj na sarta, jeev pralay ho jaai.

Guru se lagan kathin hai bhai.

Jaise papiha pyaasa boond ka, piya-piya ter lagai.

Kahe Kabir aisa ho hansa, kahe Kabir aisa ho hansa, sahaj mile Satguru aai.

Guru se lagan kathin hai bhai.

Children! the examples given here are amazing. You should have such devotion as the papiha bird. It only drinks the water of raindrops falling from the sky. If it finds water, it will drink it, but it will not drink any other water. Even if it dies. Similarly, a devotee should not desire anyone else in his dreams, except for his Supreme God Kabir and his Guru. Such devotion should be the devotee's devotion to the Satguru.

Then they tell us about the deer, which has a strong sense of hearing. Hearing the sound, it goes to the hunter itself, even if he kills it. Similarly, it is said that two armies come face to face and the brave soldiers fight. This means, that when there is a fight, the soldiers stand in the field. The brave soldier will be cut to pieces and die, but he will not leave the field. So this is our battlefield. Our fight is between ignorance and knowledge. It is between Kaal Shaitan and Almighty Kabir Ji. In this too, if you have such devotion towards your God, then things will work out.

As it is said in Gita chapter 18 verse 62, "O Partha! Go to the shelter of that God with all your heart. By His grace only you will attain Supreme peace and the eternal abode." In the first verse of the eighth chapter, Arjuna asks the question: Who is that God? Whom you have called the Supreme in the 29th verse of the chapter seventh, after knowing whom one does not worship any other, one only wants to get rid of birth and death, what is that element of Brahm? The answer is given by the Gita knowledge giver in verse 3rd of the chapter eighth that he is the Supreme Akshar Brahm. That is, Arjun is asked to go to the shelter of that Supreme Akshar Brahm.

Who is that Supreme Akshar Brahm? This has been revealed by Sant Garib Das ji -:

Garib anant koti brahmaand ka, ek rati nahi bhaar.

Satguru Purush Kabir hai, kul ke srijanhaar.

Garib sab padvi ke mool hain, sakal siddhi hai teer.

Das Garib Satpurush bhajo, avigat kala Kabir.

But who is Kabir after all? They have also given its decision.

Garib, hum sultani Nanak taare, Dadu ko upadesh diya.

Jati julaaha bhed na paaya, voh Kashi mahe Kabir hua.

He is the same Kabir Ji who met Dharamdas Ji. Garib Das Ji says that the one who liberated all of us, including Ibrahim Sultan, Baba Nanak, and Sant Dadu, is our Satguru. He is Kabir, the weaver Dhanak from Kashi, and he is the master of all.

Dadu Ji has provided evidence in his scriptures -:

Jo-jo sharan Kabir ke, tir gaye ant apaar.

Dadu gun keta kahe bhai, kaht na aavai paar.

Kabir karta aap hai, duja nahi koi.

Dadu purn jagat ko bhakti dridhavat soi.

Theka pooran hove jab, sab koi taje sharir.

Dadu kaal ganje nahi, jape jo naam Kabir.

Aadmi ki aayu ghate, tab Yam ghere aaye.

Sumiran kiya Kabir ka, Dadu liya bachaye.

Mete diya aparadh sab, aaye mile  kshan maahi.

Dadu sang le chale, Kabir charan ki chhaahi.

Dadu Ji is saying that Kabir, the Supreme Being, has destroyed all of my sins. He has eliminated my sins and has taken me with him, just as he saved me from Kaal by protecting me in the shadow of his feet.

Sevak dev nij charan ka, Dadu apna jaan.

Bhringi sat Kabir ne, kinya aap samaan.

Dadu antargat sada chhin-chhin sumiran dhyan,

Vaarun naam Kabir par, pal-pal mere praan.

Sun-sun saakhi Kabir ki, kaal nivaave maath.

Dhan-dhan teeno lok mein, Dadu jode haath.

That is, just by hearing the glory of Kabir Sahib, by hearing his words, and by hearing his reference, even Kaal bows down. Such is the glory of the Master of all three realms, seeing whom Dadu Ji is folding his hands.

Kehri naam Kabir ka, visham kaal gajraaj.

Dadu bhajan prataap se, bhaage sunat aavaaz.

Meaning, that Kaal is not a small power either. Just as the king of elephants is Gajraj, he is the most powerful of all. But Kabir Ji is like a lion, whose roar makes even the Gajraj run away in fear.

Pal-pal naam Kabir ka, Dadu manchit laaye.

Hasti ke aswaar ko swaan Kaal nahin khaye.

Here, Dadu Ji has given proof that whoever is in the refuge of Kabir Sahib is like sitting on an elephant, and Kaal is like a dog. Meaning, now Kaal doesn't have access to reach him.

Sumrat naam Kabir ka, kate kaal ki peer.

Dadu din-din ooncha, paramanand sukh seer.

Dadu naam Kabir ki, jai koi levai ote.

Unko kabhoon laagai nahin, kaal bajar ki chot.

Aur sant sab koop hain, kete jharita neer.

Dadu agam apar hai, dariya sat Kabir.

Ab hi teri sab mitai, janam-maran ki peer.

Swaans-uswaans sumar le Dadu naam Kabir.

Koi sargun mein reezh raha, koi nirgun thahraaye.

Dadu gati Kabir ki, mose kahin na jaaye.

Dadu naam Kabir ka, sunkar kar kanpe kaal.

Naam bharose nar chale, Baanka na hove baal.

Jin mokun nij naam diya, soi satguru hamaar.

Dadu doosra koi nahi, Kabir srijanhaar.

Jin mokun nij naam diya, soi satguru hamaar.

Dadu doosra koi nahi, Kabir srijanhaar.

Children! May the Divine protect you from the trials of Kaal. May He embrace you in His refuge, shielding you from any afflictions that Kaal may bring upon you.

Children! You should seek sanctuary in Kabir Sahib and dedicate your body, mind, and wealth to the Supreme Being. This means you should worship the Guru, recognizing him as the Satguru.

As I consistently remind you

Guru se lagan kathin hai bhai.

Lagan lage bin kaam na sarta, lagan lage bin kaaj na sarta.

Jeev pralay ho jaai.

Guru se lagan kathin hai bhai.

Jaise papiha pyaasa boond ka, piyuu-piyuu lau lagaai.

Pyaase jaan nikal ja beshak aur neer na bhai.

Guru se lagan kathin hai bhai.

Just like the small bird Papiha, resembling a sparrow only chirps when clouds obscure the sky. The Papiha's call for water goes "pee, pee, pee". It consumes the rainwater if it falls, yet refrains from drinking from the earth's water, even if it faces death by thirst.

Similarly, Kabir Saheb illustrates that when you emulate the Papiha and seek no favours from anyone other than your Satguru and Guru, even in your dreams, regardless of your state of happiness or sorrow, wealth or poverty, irrespective of circumstances, you achieve the status of a ‘Pativrata’ or devoted wife to the Supreme Being. In such devotion, even in your dreams, no other deity will appear, and the Supreme Being will guide you. When He does, you will be astonished and exclaim, "Oh Supreme Being! How have we, the unworthy, received such grace?"

As Garib Das Ji has conveyed -:

Garib pativrata jameen par, jyo-jyo dhar hai paav.

Samarth jhaadu det hai, na kaanta lag jaavai.

Garib Das Ji conveys the teaching that God Kabir Ji says -:

Jo jan meri sharan hai, taaka hoon main daas.

Gail-gail lagya phirun, jab tak dharti aakash.

The Supreme Being declares that He becomes the servant, slave, and attendant of the one who attains the position of a devoted wife (pativrata). Just as parents serve their children by bathing, washing, and dressing them, taking care of their every need out of love when we seek refuge in Him, the divine bestower showers us with boundless love.

Sharan pade ko guru sambhale, jaan ke balak bhola re.

Sharan pade ko guru sambhale, jaan ke balak bhola re.

Kahe Kabir tum charan chit raakho, jyon sui mein dora re.

Kahe Kabir tum charan chit raakho, jyon sui mein dora re.

Maanat na man mora sadho, maanat na man mora re.

Baar-baar main yeh samjhaun, jag mein jeevan thoda re.

Duviddha durmati chaturaai mein, janam gaya nar tora re.

Ab bhi aan milo satguru se, karo guru gyan par gaura re.

Children! Until true spiritual knowledge is obtained, a person does not perform any virtuous deeds. He may remain uncertain about which actions are virtuous and which are not. He may question the righteousness of his devotion and deeds. However, when a person seeks refuge in the Satguru, the Supreme Being showers him with abundant love, offers protection, and sustenance with alleviates his sufferings.

Garib jo jan meri sharan hai, taaka hoon main daas.

Gail-gail lagaya phirun, jab tak dharti aakash’.

Garib pativrata zameen par, jyo-jyo dhar hai paav.

Samarth jhadu det hai, na kanta lag jaave.

Once you reach this stage, your dedication will be unwavering. Not even in your dreams will you remember any other god or goddess. It is at that moment that the Almighty will grasp your hand. As I have reiterated many times, Kabir Saheb took his beloved soul Garibdas Ji with him to Satlok and unveiled the celestial realms. He revealed the abodes of Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesh, as well as heaven and hell. He disclosed the intricate arrangements of the 21 universes and, in a single glance, the seven hundred quadrillion realms of Akshar Purush. After traversing these, they arrived at the Bhanwar Gufa, and beyond that, they reached Satlok. Having revealed all these wonders to His child, Kabir Saheb then released him.

During this journey, they also visited the court of Dharmaraj, where the judge resides. Dharmaraj maintains the accounts of everyone, recording their sins and virtues, and accordingly dispenses justice. Even Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesh are subject to his authority, as they too are bound by karma and must face the consequences of their actions. Only by taking refuge in Almighty Kabir Ji can one escape the cycle of karma and be liberated from the accumulated sins of past lives. However, this liberation is attained only by those who reach the state of pativrata and sincerely worship the true name with all their heart.

Dharmaraj darbar mein, deei Kabir talak.

Mere bhule chuke Hans ko, tu pakadiye mat kajak.

Kabir Sahab approached the Chief Justice of the 21 universes and issued a stern warning. The Chief Justice respectfully rose from his seat and folded his hands in reverence and he said,

Bole purush Kabir se, dharmaraya kar jod.

Tere hans ko champu nahin, mohe dohaai iakh karod.

He further said:

mad haari jaari naraa, bhang tambaaku khaahi.

Pardwara parghar takai, unko luṅ ki nahin.

Dharmaray vinati karen, suniyo purush Kabir.

Unko to main pakdunga, aur jad hoon toke janjeer

So far as:

vah karmo seṭi rat hain, mukh se kahein Kabir.

Unko nishchay pakdunga, jad hoon toke janjeer.

It implies that even if those individuals who have accumulated past karmic imprints of wrongdoing start chanting your mantra today, I will still be obligated to administer punishment to them. Their dues are recorded in my ledger, and I must settle them accordingly. It is beyond my control. However, Garib Das Ji narrates that Almighty Kabir Ji intervened and immediately tore up their account. Kabir Saheb then declared,

Karma bhram brahmaand ke, main pal mein kar hoon nesh.

Jin hamari dohi di, so karo hamare pesh.

Thereafter, Garib Das Ji descended, and the words he spoke were immortalized in the form of a sacred scripture known as "Amar Granth".

 Yam kinkar kar jode chalein, tis dekh re.

Dharmaray ke ank mitavai lekh re.

Jeev jooni nahin jaa, baahn thadhe gahi.

Dargah manjh hajur pakad chheki bahi.

Sun mandal satlok agampur dhaam hai.

Dhan bandi chhod Kabir tumhara naam hai.

Garib Das Ji recounts that even the local chieftains are dragged away by the messengers of Yama Kinkar, the God of Death if they do not adhere to true devotion. However, upon encountering Kabir Saheb, these messengers, with their fierce and formidable presence, respectfully fold their hands and retreat. During my accompanying Him, the Almighty tore apart my ledger book right in Dharamraj's court. This signifies that He tore up the pad where my deeds account was recorded.

Then, He said,

Jeev jooni nahin jaahi, baanh thadhe gaahi.

'Thade' means capable. The word 'Thade' is in our Haryanvi language. It refers to someone more powerful. For example, when someone is asked to wrestle with a particular wrestler, and they respond by saying "yah mere se thaada hai," it means "he is stronger than me" or "he is more capable, I can't fight with him."

Let me give you an example. Once it rained at someone's sister's place. At that time, most of the people were farmers. Both the brother and sister were farmers. Where the sister was married, the land was good. At that time, farming depended on the rain. This arrangement was almost everywhere about 50 years ago. Irrigation water was available in very few places. When the brother found out that it had rained at his sister's place, he took his oxen and plough and went to help his sister. He was sent to another field, and his brother-in-law went to plough the other field. He was familiar with the fields because he used to come and go there. He diligently worked in the fields all day, even taking a break at noon to fetch water for his oxen from a nearby pond. There was a pond-like reservoir near that field. He came after giving water to the oxen from that pond.

There was a shrine nearby. A small platform, about two and a half feet high, is called a shrine. There were 5 kilograms of jaggery kept in it. Earlier, a lump of jaggery weighing 5 kilograms was made especially for these devotees, for offering to the gods. Which was taken out separately at the beginning. The rest were made into small lumps. His brother, that devotee, picked up all that jaggery and brought it along. He ate some after breaking it. Fed the rest to the oxen. After finishing his work, he came home in the evening and went to sleep. In his dream, a man wearing a loincloth, like a Muslim saint, appeared, saying, "Did you eat my jaggery? How dare you? He started saying you are in the refuge of Thade. You are in the refuge of Thade, you have been saved. Otherwise, I would have killed you and your oxen. Don't come here from now on." Saying this, he went away. (Thade means the capable)

Upon seeing that man, he too felt scared, wondering what calamity had befallen him. But he found the courage to say that I am in the refuge of God, that is, I am in the refuge of Bandi Chhod. This saint himself admitted defeat and thus his morale was raised. In the morning, he asked his sister, "Sister! There was a lump of jaggery kept there on the shrine. I went to water the oxen. I brought it. I ate it. Fed some to the oxen. I thought he fed dogs there! And then a man came in my dream who was like a saint and said such things to me that I would kill you, I would kill your oxen. You are saved, you are in the refuge of Thade. Hearing this, the sister started crying. She said, "Oh, what have you done? How did you survive? He doesn't spare anyone. He beats anyone who picks up his item. He beats him and harms the animals. Bulls and animals clash like this and scream and die. She said to her husband, "Why did you send my brother here? She was getting angry. So, the brother said, "Sister, you still don't believe it? He, your loin, went with folded hands. Where are you wandering, fool? Come, take refuge in your God."

Children! The soul bursts, this world is dying, wandering, and does not recognize God. What the merciful God has bestowed upon you is an invaluable, unexpected treasure. Take care of this mercy of the Almighty, children. Do not consider it a child's plaything. What will happen? This is a 2-days life. We will die just by kicking our legs like this. Kings and emperors have departed whose history we used to hear. Today, no trace of their names remains. In such a filthy world, what will you consider your own? Now, as the beginning was, that

Duvidha durmati chaturai mein, janam gaya nar toraa re.

Ab bhi aan milo satguru se, karo guru gyan par gaura re.

Now the Satguru tells:

Man tu chal re sukh ke saagar, jahaan shabad sindhu ratnaagar.

Koti janam tujhe bhramat ho gaye, kuchh na haath lagya re.

Kukar, shukar, khar bhaya baure, kauva hans buga re.

Man tu chal re sukh ke sagar, jahaan shabad sindhu ratnaagar.

Koti janam tu raja kinha, mitee na man ki aasa.

Bhikshuk hokar dar-dar ghuma, mila na nirgun raasa.

Man tu chal re sukh ke saagar, jahaan shabad sindhu ratnaagar.

Indra kuber ish ki padvi, Brahma Varun Dharmaraya.

Vishnu nath ke pur ko pahuncha, bahur apootha aaya.

Man tu chal re sukh ke saagar, jahaan shabad sindhu ratnaagar.

Asankhya janm tane marate ho gaye, jeevit kyon na mare re.

Dwadash dar madhy mahal math bore, bahur na deh dhare re.

Man tu chal re sukh ke saagar, jahaan shabad sindhu ratnaagar.

Dozakh bhishat sabhi tei dekhe, rajpaat ke rasiya.

Triloki se tripat nahin, yeh man bhogi khasiya.

Man tu chal re sukh ke saagar, jahaan shabd sindhu ratnaagar.

Satguru mile to ichha metai, pad mil padey samana.

Satguru mile to ichha metai, pad mil padey samana.

Chal Hansa us lok pathaun, jo aadi amar asthaana.

Man tu chal re sukh ke saagar, jahaan shabad sindhu ratnaagar.

Char mukti jahaan champi kar hai, maya ho rahi daasi.

Char mukti jahaan champi kar hai, maya ho rahi daasi.

Daas Garib abhay pad parse, mile Ram avinashi.

Man tu chal re sukh ke saagar, jahaan shabad sindhu ratnaagar.

Now What does the Satguru tell? ‘Man tu sukh ke Sagar chal re. Chal re sukh ke saagar.’

Why are you suffering in this dirty world?

‘Koti janm tujhe bhramat ho gaye, kuchh nahin haath lagya re.Kukar, shukar (Kutta), Gadha, khar (Gadha) bhaya baure, kauva hans buga re.’

‘Koti janm tu raja kinha, mitee na man ki aasa.’ Will you remain stuck in this cycle? Today, you have human life, it's alright, you had children, property, or maybe not. You rejoice in this. And then they will die.  If any virtue of human is left, you will be born again as a human. Then again this procedure, the process. Then again You will die. Then will be born again. Then again this process.  Damm this life?  Let's go there where there is no birth and death.  It is difficult for you to believe that such happiness exists there?  Because you have become so engrossed in the system of this dirty world you have become so used to it.  This appears to be the final.  And this is how the knowledge is given to us that birth and death will continue. Will have to become dogs, donkeys and pigs too.  Is this something?  Then what kind of devotion is this?

So in this it came to light that ‘Koti janm tujhe bhramat ho gaye, kuchh nahi haath lagya re.’ What can you achieve? You achieved that you are listening to the glory of God.  This is ‘Gyan Yagya’, ‘Dhyana Yagya’, ‘Dharma Yagya’, ' Pranam Yagya’ and ‘Havan Yagya’.  These five Yagyas are made to be performed by you. This is your achievement. Take out time and bet on it. Grab this opportunity.

Now it is said that Koti janm tu raja kinha, Just as in the biography of Lord Mahavir Jain, it is told and shown to you how many times he became a king. How many times did he become a deity? And then how many times did he become a dog, donkey, and pig? To hell with such divine positions where such misfortune is still ready.

So, children!

Koti janm tu raja kinha, mitee na man ki aasa.

Bhikshuk hokar dar-dar ghuma, mila na nirgun raasa.

This means, You also became Indra, Kuber, the god of wealth.  Indra the god of heaven.  You even attained the position of Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh.

Asankhya janm tane marataa ho gaye, jeevit kyon na marai re. This is dying alive -: Like now you will be troubled with sleep every morning.  Let's sleep once there is a cool breeze.  But you have died alive, left the bed immediately, and will listen to the story of God. You leave even small tasks to listen to Satsang first.  And gave up evil.  So this is called dead alive You died alive.  And you are also practising it, one day you will get success.

‘Dwadash Dar Madhya Mahal Math Bore Bahur Na De Dhare Re’. After crossing the 12th door, your Satlok destination is there, after crossing the Bhanwar Gufa (cave). Then after going there, there will be no more birth and death.

‘Dozakh bhishat sabhi tai dekhe, rajpaat ke rasiya.’ By performing the wrong devotion, you have gone to heaven, you have gone to hell, and you have even become a king. ‘Teenlok se tirapti  nahin’ This mind is not satisfied even if it gets three realms. First, he thinks I should become a Sarpanch. After becoming the village head let me become the chairman, and then things will work out. Once he becomes the chairman, he thinks about becoming an MLA people give him more recognition. Even after becoming an MLA, he is not completely satisfied. That's when he thinks about aiming for a ministerial position. After becoming a minister, he understands that the Chief Minister is where everything lies. The Chief Minister is still under the Prime Minister. Then he thinks, let me rule the entire nation. For that, he makes efforts by then he dies. Then he will become a donkey and will wander and suffer here.  It is said that Kaal is subjecting you to such miseries. 

Then, the Satguru explains:

Satguru mile to ichha metai, pad mil padey samana.

Chal hansa us lok pathaun, jo aadi amar asthaana.

Man tu chal re sukh ke saagar, jahaan shabd sindhu ratnaagar.

Meaning, that when you meet the true Guru, he will remind you of all the nonsense here, he will destroy all the desires here, meaning he will put an end to them. You will attain such profound knowledge that you will say,

Sai itna dijiye, jame kutumb samaave.

Hum bhi bhuke na rahe, atithi na bhuka jaave.

So, the Almighty will also give you all these tremendously, such as houses, cars, horses, etc., wonderfully. When you become His own, when He accepts you as His, when you attain the position of pativrata, a loyal devotee, then He will clear all obstacles, take note of this. This is not some folk song from a minstrel? Das (Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj) is not a word beggar. Das has dived into the realm of spiritual knowledge after understanding it well. You have been told that

Do dal sammukh aan ladain, shoorveer let ladai.

Took-took ho pade zameen par, maidan chhod na jaai.

This has become a battlefield, Kaal confronts us face to face directly.  At this time if we leave this place being cowardly, no one as wicked as us will be found. Now whether we live or die, it doesn't matter.  After all, we are not committing any wrongdoing, not sinning; we are only struggling for the ultimate truth. You have to be strong like Garib Das Ji says -:

Kaccha heera krich hove, nahi sahai ghan maar

Aisa mann yeh ho raha, jab lekha le kartar.

It means that just like testing a diamond by placing it on a stone and hitting it with a hammer weighing about 5 kilograms if it doesn't show any marks, it retains its value. Similarly, if there are no flaws in you, you will be highly esteemed.

Therefore, the Divine will examine you thoroughly. If you remain strong even when facing difficulties, you will become invaluable. You will attain a place in the Satlok (the eternal realm). About that place, it has been said that

Char mukti jahaan chhampi karti, Maya ho rahi daasi.

Daas Gareeb abhay pad parse wo mile Ram avinaashi.

Now Kabir Saheb tells-:

Maya daasi sant ki, ubhai de aashish.

Barati aur laaton chhadi, sumar-sumar Jagdish.

It signifies that when you surrender yourself to the Almighty, Maya will shower blessings upon you. It will bring you joy and grant you liberation because you will then engage Maya in righteous endeavours and duties. It will bestow blessings upon you from all directions.

Therefore, dear children, take this endeavour seriously. It is the grace of the Supreme God. However, this opportunity will not last long as this world is inherently flawed. Nonetheless, make the most of the time you have. Gain confidence that the Guru is with you, guiding you in your assigned tasks. The Das (Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj) will also attain Satlok (the eternal realm of Truth). I will remain here only for a little while, in this impure world.

Therefore, value it. The Supreme Being has wandered here for 120 years for you. Open your eyes. Now, you have been made wise, and educated, and then through this Das this pure knowledge has been conveyed to you.  Apply it with determination. Follow it. Embrace it in your heart. Move ahead according to it.

Children, such miracles are not an everyday occurrence; they are a manifestation of God's grace. Seize this opportunity and make the most of it. It's disheartening to see that some of you, after coming to take refuge and graced with Sarnaam, have not visited Guruji for 30 days out of a 6-month period. Have you become so lax? This is unacceptable. It indicates a lack of understanding. Now, pay attention to the knowledge being imparted!

God's grace is available only for a limited time, so make the most of it, dear children. This opportunity will not come again. Countless lifetimes have been spent chasing worldly pursuits and facing death. Did anything worthwhile come out of them? On the contrary, everything worthwhile will be attained here. You will find happiness, bodily well-being, family protection, familial joy, and ultimately liberation, dear children. May the Supreme Being grant you liberation. Stay ever joyful.
