What Is New in this Happy New Year 2024?

Happy New Year 2024 | To enjoy and welcome the New year, People celebrate this day by doing several activities and organizing fun parties with family, friends and relatives. But in actuality a day can be considered as equal as a new year if it is sacrificed or given towards fulfilling the prime motive of this human life which is attaining salvation.

We are entrapped in the cage of Satan (Kaal Brahm) and that’s the reason why we are experiencing hardships in our lives based upon our destinies. Supreme God Kabir cannot give us sorrows. To attain happiness we have to leave this place by attaining salvation and leave for the eternal abode Satlok which is away from all sorrows. For achieving this purpose one needs to find a Tatvdarshi Sant to acquire a complete way of worship and attain salvation.

Start New Life On This New Year 2024

New Year 2024 Special Knowledge: One must take initiation from a True Saint in order to start a new life. In other words, a day is considered to be new year’s day when he/she takes the refuge of a True Saint (Tatvdarshi Sant). Otherwise, life is worthless. Most of the people ignore the only aim of worshiping the Supreme God in human life and are busy following the wrong ways of worship and consuming their life.

Ja din Satguru bhetya, Ta din lekhe Jan।

Baki samay vayrath gya, Bina guru ke Naam।।

It is clear from the above verse that only that day when you take Initiation (Naam Diksha) from True Saint is worthy, and the rest of life without taking Naam is worthless.

Why to Make Resolutions? Let this happy new year 2024 be the change

Happy New Year 2024: Many individuals make resolutions to get rid of bad habits if they have any. Whereas, by taking Naam Diksha (Initiation) from True Saint, there is no need to make resolutions since He (Saint) will provide true devotion and by following which one can get rid of all the ill habits. Those who take initiation from Tatvdarshi Sant can easily leave those bad habits of intoxication, cheating others, depravity etc,. 

■ Read in Hindi: आ गया नया, जानिए कैसे बनाए इस साल को खास!

It is because of the awareness about true spiritual knowledge given by Supreme God Kabir that one gets the knowledge about which activities to adopt and which to give up depending upon the requirement on the path of salvation. As until we get salvation, all the ill habits only give us sin and destroy our virtues thus posing a barrier on to our path of salvation.

How to Get a Happy and Prosperous Year? 

Happy New Year 2024: All the individuals have to suffer according to their previous good and bad deeds. Everyone wishes to lead a peaceful, prosperous and a blissful life. But life is not a bed of roses, all have to confront problems, failures, and several ups and downs in their lives. The major reason behind sufferings is our own ignorance. The account of our previous karmas can only be destroyed if we follow a True Saint and His way of worship.

It is also known to us that nothing can be added or removed from our karmas, we have to suffer those. But the True Saint has the Power that He can change what is written in our destiny. 

Masa ghate na til badhhe, Bidhna likhe jo lekh।

Sacha Satguru metkar, Upar maar de mekh।।

Saint Garib Das Ji Maharaj had also mentioned in His verse that without doing True Worship, one cannot attain salvation. Also, the entire world is trapped in Kaal Brahm’s Lok and have forgotten the way of our real home. There is no trace of peace and comfort here.  

Garib, Ek paapi ek punyi aaya, Ek hai soom dalel re।

Bina bhajan koi kaam na aave, Sab hai jam ki jail re।।

In another verse of Saint Garib das Ji, He mentioned that the Supreme peace and happiness are present only in our Real Home Satlok, where there is no birth, no death, no old age, no sorrows, no disease. There, everything is provided free of cost by God (Kabir Sahib Ji) Who is Immortal. 

Na koi bhikshuk daan de, Na koi haar vyahaar।

Na koi janme mare, Aisa desh Hamaar।।

Jahaan Sankho lehar Mehar ki upje, Kahar nhi jahan koi।

Das Garib achal Avinashi, Sukh ka Sagar soi।।

Who Is the True Saint at Present?

At present Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj from Haryana, India is the True Saint. He is the only one who provides worship mentioned in our scriptures. Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj is the only Guru at present who has revealed the hidden secret about Satnam, Saarnaam and Saarshabad (the authentic mantras as given in our Holy Scriptures to attain salvation). No other Guru has mentioned anything about these Mantras. Kabir Sahib ji explained about these mantras in His verses. 

Satguru soi jo Saarnaam Drdaavae। Aur guru koi kaam na aavae।।

 Saarnaam bin Purush (Bhagwan) drohi।।
