Sathya bhakti - true devotion

A scholar-Pundit Visits Kabir Sahib.
Mera Tera Manuva, Kaisey Ik Hoi Rey|
Mey Kehta Hu Aankhin Dekhi, Tu Kahta Kagad Ki Lekhi|
Mey Kehta Surzavan Hari, Tu Rakhiyo Urzaai Rey|
Mey Kehta Hu Jagat Rahiyo, Tu Rehta Hai Soi Rey|
Mey Kehta Nirmohi Rahiyo, Tu Jata Hai Mohi Re|
Jugan Jugan Samuzavat Hara, Kaha Na Manat Koi Re|
Tu Toh Randi Phire Vihandi, Sab Dhan Daare Khoi Re|
Satguru Dhara Nirmal Bahey, Bamey Kaya Dhoi Re|
Kahat Kabir Suno Bhai Sadho, Tab Hi Vaisa Hoi Re||
During the time of Kabir Sahib, when the fame of Sahib spread as a ideal Gyani (Supreme Wisdom), many great Yogis, Brahmagyanis, critics and the thinkers leaving their path slowly started coming to the feet of Kabir Sahib. A scholar came to Sahib with a bullock-cart loaded with books. On the way a girl, Kamali was fetching water. The scholar asked the girl, the direction for Kabir Sahib's residence. Looking at the bullock-cart, the girl could not control her laughter. Even the pot she was bearing broke. When he asked for the reason of her conduct, she replied-
Kabir Ka Ghar Dur Hai, Taha Silhali Gail|
Pauv Na Padey Pipilika, Pandit Ladey Bail||
The scholar with long hair and beard, Sandalwood paste on his forehead and a cart load of books was trying to seek Kabir Sahib. What did he know that Kabir Sahib's house is on the hilltop and it is not easy to go there, the way is slippery,even a small ant also gets slip over there. Further, how can he carry loads of book?:idontgetit::idontgetit:

 

Kabir Munn To Ek Hai, Bhavai Jahan Lagaye.
Bhavai Guru Ki Bhakti Kar, Bhavai Vishaya Kamaye.
Munn Ke Harey Har Hai, Munn Ke Jeete Jeet.
Kahey Kabir Guru Payiye, Munn Hi Ke Parteet.
Munn Ke Bahutak Rung Hain, Chhin Chhin Badley Soye.
Ek Rung Mein Jo Rahai, Aisa Birla Koye.
Munn Panchon Ke Vash Pada, Munn Ke Vash Nahin Panch.
Jit Dekhun Tit Doun Lagi, Jit Bhagun Tit Aanch.

It is the lust, anger, greed, attachment and ego that collectively form the body of mind, but still these are not under the control of mind. Instead, it is the mind that is under the control of these. It is the mind that falls under the sway of lust, anger and ego and acts accordingly. Sahibji says that the mind wants to run away in all direction it finds, but fails to escape from the burning fire of these five ghosts.

FOLLOW SATGURU NOT YOUR MIND

Guru Agya Le Avahi, Guru Agya Le Jai| Kahey Kabir Va Das Fir, Bahu Vidhi Amrut Pai||
There is nothing more important than following words of Satguru. Those who faithfully follow words of Satguru are considered as Gurumukh.
Guru Agya Le Aavhi, Guru Agya Le Jaai||
This is Guru Bhakti.
Guru Bhakti Atal Amaan Adol Dharman, Yaha Saras Duja Nahi| Jap Yog Vrath Tap Daan Puja, Truna Sadrusha Yaha Jag Kahi||
Pilgrimage and ritualistic worship are worth nothing when compared to Satguru Bhakthi. Serve with your Mind, Body and Wealth. This is the merit of Guruseva. Sahibji says:
Guruseva Jo Kare Subhaga| Janam Janam Ka Patak Bhaga||
The sins of the present and past lives will be washed away. Guruseva Se Hrudai Prakashe||
Your heart will be illumined.
Durmati Bhage Paatak Nashey||
The mental flaws will vanish. Sins will be destroyed. Subhaga here means fortunate one. Service to the Satguru will be fulfilled.
Muze hai kam Satguru sey, duniya ruthey to ruthan de|'
Guru Agyaa Teh Aavai, Guru Agyaa Le Jaai|
Kahey Kabir So Sant Jan, Bahu Vidhi Amrut Paai||
Those who stay on the direction of Satguru, he comes and goes as per the instructions of Satguru, Sahib says, "He rises to the level of Sant and with splendour he drinks the nectar". On the other side, those who do not accept words of the Satguru, and pursue only their mind, their worldly as well as adhyatmic knowledge will not improve and Kalpurush circles around his head.
Devi Deval Jagat Mey, Kotin Puje Koi|
Satguru Ki Puja Kiye, Sabki Puja Hoi||
There are millions of Gods and Demigods in this illusionary world. However, worshiping Satguru alone includes worshipping all.:bowdown

 

Saat Deep Nau Khand Mein, Guru Se Bada Na Koye.
Karta Karai Na Kari Sakai, Guru Karai So Hoye.
Guru Kumhar Shishya Kumbh Hai,
Gadhi Gadhi Kadhai Khot.
Antar Hath Sahar De, Bahar Bahai Choat.

A Guru is like a potter and a disciple is like a pitcher. Just as a potter while supporting the pitcher from inside, gives strokes on its outer side so as to give it the desired shape, a Satguru also while giving support of true love from inside, has sometimes to rebuke his disciples so as to rid them of the evils and vices that can prove harmful to them. :hiya

 

None gives any information about the abode jiva has come from.Va Ghar Ki Sudh Koyi Na Batave, Jahvan Se Hansa Aya Hai.
None gives any information about the abode jiva has come from.
There is a great secret related to the real abode of jiva. Sahib Kabir revealed it. He talked about all the different kinds of physical bodies in detail. He told the means one could adopt to reach Brahm Lok even. One can find a mention of these four kinds of salvation in different panths and religions. That loka of Param Purush is indeed a very rare loka.
Ved Kateb Par Nahin Pavat, Kahan Sunan Se Neyara Hai.
Even the Vedas and other holy scriptures don’t throw any light on that rare kind of Loka Amarlok.
Us Manjle Nazdik Nehin Kaal Ka Phanda.
There is no grip of Kaal on that loka.
Sahib Kabir has talked about all the 21 Brahmands. Then why was he opposed? He gave a severe blow to the irrational and unscientific rites, rituals and beliefs. The hypocrites of all kinds got united to declare that he was an unlettered fellow. They tried to defame him in every possible manner. Just as in politics, every politician tries to defame his rival the hypocrites also coined different stories to defame him. They did so to prevent the people from going to him. In fact, the people failed to understand all that Sahib Kabir spoke about the Loka that lies beyond the 3 lokas.:thumbsup

 

What is Sahaj Marg? Guru takes the total responsibility. Your attachment and desires will keep reducing; your inner vices will begin to disappear. A security guard (Satguru) will stand by you always. 'Mera Hari Mauko Bhajey, Mey Sou Pauv Pasaar||' This is Sahaj marg. You need not do any Sadhna. This is Brunga matha.
Guru Ko Kijey Dandavaat, Koti Koti Pranaam|
Kitt Na Janey Brunga Ko, Kariley Aap Saman||
People are in confusion as to what course to take. People are talking about various Sadhnas. You cannot overcome Maya Shakti (power of Illusion) on your own effort. The Satya Naam of Satguru will accomplish this for you.

 

Pollution in Life
If we look at the field of devotion impartially, we will observe that it is not correct, it is like a contagious disease, earlier it was not like that but now it is spread. Ordinary people are afflicted with Kidney failures, Joint pains, Heart disease, Blood pressure, Mental disorder, etc. People have to face a lot of problems. There were no such a problems earlier. Such a dangerous diseases did not exist earlier. If you probe this, you can identify two basic problems. First, the food habbits of people are not correct because they are using urea and other chemicals. Our ancestors were not taking these chemicals. They were not using insecticide also. All these things have an ill effect. Similarly, if you look at the field of religion, you will identify the causes.
We are using contaminated water. The first stage of water is dirty and even the second stage is not good. The water which is below 100 feet is good but many drink dirty water. Therefore, our food and the environments are not good. Our ancestors lived in a good environment. They were taking pure food. The other is the mental problem. People suffer from anxiety and hypertension. These are on everybody's head. It has become so much that son makes his father anxious, brother puts his brother in tension. With these mental disorders, gives rise to other complications. With tension, Kidney can be affected, can lead to heart attack, it can lead to blood pressure. This way, people suffer because of these two basic problems.:bonk

 

Pollution in the field of Bhakti
Let us take a look at the field of Devotion. Is it also afflicted? You have to see honestly. Just like the food and anxiety, these two becomes a basis for the diseases. In the same way, we have to accept the afflictions in the field of devotions. The field of Devotion is spoiled by three group of peoples:
1. Attack of Gangsters (apradhi tabka)
2. Attack of Business-minded (vyavsayik tabka)
3. Attack of polictically-minded (rajnitik tabka)
All the above three has done much harm to the field of devotion. If you take a look, drugs and narcotics are involved. In the name of subscription or donation, collecting money has become common and all these are forcefully collected. For this is criminal, it is an easy task, it does not cost anything. The pollution in Bhakti is evident. You can notice disease everywhere. Similarly, the affliction of Bhakti is evident.:hiya

 

"Hai Yaha Satguru Bina Koi, Moksha Ka Dhata Nahi|"
It is not a simple statement that "It is no one but a Satguru, who is a giver of salvation." He gives the 'Sajeev Naam' ( a unique medicine). It is out of world and free of elements. That Naam protects and keeps you alert. on receiving the Naam, your power of spiritual discrimination (Vivek) enhances because without this true Naam, a concentration is blind. Your ignorance is due to the darkness which pervaides your Heart. Darkness produces ignorance. with the Satya Naam, you can comprehend the arising of Kam (desire), Krodh (anger), Lobh (greed), Moh (attachment), Mada (pride). You can also identify your own transformation.

There are Four Different RAMAS
Ram name existed even prior to birth of Ramji son of Dasrath Maharaj.
Once Dharam Dassji said to Sahibji, “The worldly people are absorbed in Sagun worship while the yogeshwar ones are absorbed in Nirgun worship. Also, you are talking about the mode of worship that is far removed from these two forms of worship. How can we worship according to this new mode?”
Sahibji said that the world doesn’t know that Param Purush. He made the idea clear to him thus—
Jug mein charon Ram hain, teen Ram vyavahar.
Chautha Ram nij sar hai, taka karo vichar.
Ek Ram Dashrath ghar dolai, ek Ram ghat ghat mein bolai.
Ek Ram ke sakal pasara., ek Ram tri bhuvan se neyara.
Akar Ram Dashrath ghar dolai, nirakar ghat ghat mein boley.
Bindu Ram ka sakal pasara, niralambh sabb hin te neyara.
There are four kinds of Ram in the world. But the world knows about the 3 kinds of Ram only whereas the 4th Ram (Sahib) is the essence. One is the Sakar (with body) Ram whom everyone knows as the son of king Dashrath. Then the second Nirakar (formless) Ram is also known to everyone. This is because all the holy scriptures are talking about him. He is present in every living being in the form of Munn. Then the 3rd Ram is known in the form of semen that is responsible for the reproduction of the jivas of the world. Apart from these three, the fourth one, that is the rarest of all, has been called as Sahib by the holy saints. He is the Lord of the 4th loka (Amarlok).
