Grand satsang held at Ranjri on Kabir Jayanti

Ranjri, June 28: While showering the rays of spiritualism during a satsang at Ranjri on the eve of Kabir Jayanti, Sh. Madhu Param Hansji Maharaj, the head of the Sahib Bandgi panth, said that the world we are living in, is not the real abode of soul.
        Is it true to say so? Yes, it is true. Can we see it? Yes, we can do so. If we give a serious thought to all that is happening around us, we shall find that nothing favourable to the soul is to be found here.
        We can see the fragrance through our nostrils. We can see the air through its touch with the body. Likewise, we can see the soul as well. One day, I went to Rakhbandu. The cows there began to cry. I asked one of the devotees the reason for it. He said that they were crying because they had come from Ranjri. I had forgotten them but they hadn’t done so. All the animals including a calf that had been brought there from Ranjri, began to cry. I mean to say, they were trying to recognize me.
        I have made a thorough study of the cruel natured persons as well & have found the same soul in all of them.
        This universe is not an abode of the soul. You might have doubts about the appearance of Amarlok, Satya Purush & the soul. The fact is that you know all about them. No doubt, it will appear strange as to how you can be expected to have a knowledge of all the there. But it is a fact that the soul after reaching Amarlok, doesn’t find anything new & strange there. This universe apears as a true & real one due to the play of Munn Maya. Actually, you know you previous birth as well. When you visit some place, you feel that the place seems to be a known one. Sometimes, on seeing some fellow, you feel as if you know him. But you visited that place or saw that particular fellow for the first time. Then how did it happen like that? One day, I visited the Siyaishian Glacier & felt as if I had visited there earlier as well. But the fact is that I had gone there for the first time. I went deep into the matter & found that I had lived at that place earlier as well.
        I want to speak only so much as is sufficient for you to understand. If I speak more, you won’t believe it. It will cause disturbance in your worship.
        When the soul reaches Satlok, it, at once, recognises that it is its own abode. Param Purush doesn’t appear to be an unknown face.

Sant Kabirnagar (UP), Jun 28: Prime Minister Narendra Modi today slammed opposition parties, saying some parties want "unrest" by creating doubts in the minds of the people for "political gains" but were cut off from ground reality.

Addressing a public rally at the 'nirvan sthal' of Sant Kabir Das after laying a 'chadar' at the mazar of the poet, the prime minister also said that those who imposed Emergency and those opposed to it have now come together.

"Some parties don't want peace and development. They (Opposition parties) think if there will be unrest, they will benefit politically...but these people are cut off from roots and don't know the nature of this nation of Sant Kabir, Mahatma Gandhi and Baba Ambedkar," he said.

Taking a swipe at the Samajwadi Party and the Bahujan Samaj Party, the prime minister said, "Those who always talk of 'samajwad' and 'bahujan' are extremely selfish. They don't see the welfare of society but only the welfare of themselves and their families".

Modi also took a dig at former UP Chief Minister Akhilesh Yadav over the bungalow controversy, saying some leaders are only concerned about government bungalows.

"They were more concerned about their bungalow and not about housing for the poor," he said and added that the Akhilesh Yadav government failed to send the number of the poor in UP to avail benefits under the Prime Minister's housing scheme.

The prime minister also lashed out at opposition parties for creating "hindrance" in passage of the Triple Talaq bill in Parliament even though Muslim women have been demanding it.

Recalling Ambedkar's contribution, he said though he advocated for equality in society, unfortunately there are parties that are using his ideals for political gains.

620th day of appearance of Sahib Kabir on earth
 In the history of the world neither it has happened nor it will probably happen that birth & death have not taken place. Even the incarnations appeared on this earth by taking birth from the wombs of their mothers & had to leave their body at the time of departure.
But there was the one-His holiness Kabir Sahib Ji-who neither took birth from the womb of any mother nor left his body behind at the time of departure.
The Muslim religion believes that God sends his messengers but He never takes birth. This is because he who takes birth has to die. He who takes birth & dies can’t be called as God.
But it was Kabir Sahib alone who appeared on the earth without taking birth like others. That is why all sorts of misconceptions have been associated with his birth alone. It has not happened with any other sage.
On many occasions Kabir Sahib has revealed rare secrets about his own self which clearly show that he appeared on this earth with the dazzling & unique light of Param Purush.
His personaility has been very dominant. Some call him as a social reformer. The poets, impressed by his simple but forceful writings take him as a ‘Kavi Samrat’. The Rationalists take him as a great plain speaking personality. Brahmgeyanis, on studying his spiritual sayings consider him as a ‘Brahmveta’. The saints call him as the first Saint Satguru (Perfect Master). The Yogis, on studying the techniques of inner meditation & other secrets related o Sagun & Nirgun, take him as a great yogeshwar. The experts in the art of taunts take him as a great ‘Vyangkar’ (hidden arrows in sayings). The devotees & worshippers feeling impressed by his devotional sayings, take him as a great devotee. The judges, on studying his arguments, take him as a great judge. Among the Geyanis (spiritually enlightened) he occupies the same position as Ganga occupies among the water bodies. The Rahasyavadis (explorers of hidden secrets) take him as a great Rahasyawadi.
He didn’t float any religion. His only aim was to awaken mankind. Along with this he gave the message of the worship of Param Purush (All powerful). Some take him as a denouncer & a non believer.
He talked about 4 kinds of salvations & described these as 4 kinds of heavens. Then he talked about real salvation that saves the soul from the repeated cycle of births & deaths. Some were absorbed in sagun kind of worship while others in Nirgun. He talked about Pra Bhakti that is far beyond both these worships.
Some Nirgun worshippers listen to the inner musical tunes & get lost in them. They take the tunes as God Himself. But Sahib told them that the sound is produced only when two things strike & where there is sound there is Maya. The real ‘Nam’ is a soundless sound.
All the sages who appeared after him believed in what he said. He told us the technique of worshipping Param Purush even while holding a family. He unfolded the secrets of wandering in the Brahmand by opening the ‘Sushumna nerve’ in the language of the common man.
The fact is that Kabir Sahib was not a human being. Normally, everyone showers praises on his own deity but dear devotees there is some logic in what I say. Think in an impartial manner. He appeared on the lotus flower & left the lotus flowers at the time of his departure. His material body was not traced. Sahib Kabir performed this miracle in the presence of Lacs of his devotees & others who had assembled to see it.
The Hindus took flowers & raised a ‘Samadhi’ whereas the Muslims took the Chaddar (sheet of cloth) & raised a Masoleum.
Even today, these two places at Maggar bear witness to the greatness of Kabir Sahib & convey a message to the worldly people to recognize the fact that he was not a human being but Param Purush Himself.
Give a rational thought to what I am saying. Never before did anyone make himself bodiless. This is the first & the last miracle that Sahib Kabir showed to the worldly people. His sayings will always remain as a guiding force for the worldly people & for the devotees to attain Param Purush. “Sahib Bandgi”
