Every Dalit has not got his rights till now. It is not that no one took initiative except Ambedkar, but no change could come in this society. There is no dearth of people who support the caste system. But at present Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj has created such a society in which there is only one caste of human beings which is humanity. And there is no place for caste in the society created by Him. The followers of Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj perform marriages, gatherings, devotional practices etc. without any caste discrimination.

Request to the Followers of Dr. Bhimrao on Ambedkar Jayanti 2023
Dr Bhimrao Ramji did a lot of work to uplift the Dalit community and did good to raise their standards but everything is useless since this is not the only aim of life. He could not fulfill the main aim which is to attain Salvation. As a student needs a teacher to attain a degree from a reputed institute, similarly, for religious path one must take the refuge of a True Saint.

Meaning of a Worthy Life
Life becomes meaningful when a person takes Naam Diksha (Initiation) from a Saint. But the devotion must be authentic and a Guru must be true. Supreme God Kabir Sahib Ji explains this in His verses that the entire life is useless till the time one does not take Naam (Initiation). The lines are as follows:
Ja din Satguru bhetiya, So din lekhe jaan |
Baaki samay vyarth gya, Bina Guru ke naam ||
So, it is clear from the above lines that one must take Initiation in one’s life.
What Is Eternal Devotion?
Ambedkar Jayanti 2023: The entire world has been misled on the way of worship by the priests to earn money. The Sanatan Dharma does not support a Caste System like this. This has been explained by Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj in His pious spiritual discourses. He not only opened the door of devotion to everyone irrespective of caste, creed, color and gender, He also confronted those who support casteism. People are doing arbitrary practices which are not mentioned in our scriptures. In Bhagavad Gita ji Chapter 9 verse 28, it is mentioned that one who performs worship according to the scriptures will attain benefits from me but abandoning home or doing Hatha Yoga is not the actual worship.
Satlok is the abode where no suffering, diseases, old age, fear, death, hate, trauma, poverty, problems are there. Only peace, equality, love, brotherhood, happiness, joy, youth, harmony are there. That is the place from which every soul belongs.
The Correct Way of Worship
There is evidence in Gita Ji Adhyay 15 Mantra 1-4 that the True Saint would provide the true worship and His identity is also mentioned in it. Also, by practicing that way of worship, one can get liberated from the trap of Brahm (Kaal)
True Saint at Present
In the present era, Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj is the only True Saint who provides the True Mantras from our holy books. The other Saints are doing and teaching the fake practices and their devotees are being told to do the same. Hence, one should not waste time in doing wrong worship and must take refuge in the authorized Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj.
Saint Rampal Ji Is the Actual Reformer
By His humongous initiatives His followers are living simple and meaningful lives. His efforts are touching the lives of millions. For Him, we all are His children where no one is rich or poor. He has removed the difference between rich & poor and there is no casteism in His teachings. He teaches the lesson of One God and always says that we all are equal and children of one God. Believe in His words and know the real meaning of equality. To know more about His teachings download Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj app from the playstore.
