The Ultimate Vote: Choosing Our Path Back to Satlok
Voting is a process of selecting a leader capable of guiding and protecting us. It is vital to choose someone who ensures our happiness and safety. The first-ever vote in existence took place in our eternal home, Satlok, after the creation of souls. Tragically, all the souls currently residing on Earth made the wrong choice we chose Kaal Brahm (Satan) over our true Father, the Supreme Lord Kabir Sahib Ji.
By rejecting our Creator, we abandoned a divine abode where there was no suffering, old age, death, or sorrow. We left behind eternal bliss and came under the rule of Kaal Brahm. As a result, we now endure endless suffering caught in the cycle of birth and death across 8.4 million life forms. Under Kaal Brahm’s (Jyoti Niranjan) influence, we are compelled to engage in sins such as theft, fraud, addiction, meat consumption, and bribery, which further bind us to this material world of misery.
We have strayed far from our true home, and our Father, the Almighty, is reaching out to guide us back. Today, He has descended to Earth in the form of Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj, with the divine mission of leading us back to our eternal abode, Satlok.
Almighty God Kabir ji Says to His beloved soul Garibdas Ji,
“Gota maroon swarg mein, Ja pethu pataal |
Garibdas dhundhta phiroon, Apne hirein moti laal ||”
All the humans in the world must identify their Creator Almighty God Kabir, who has come to Haryana, India in the body of Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj. One must Take Naam Diksha (Initiation) from Him and start doing true worship according to the holy scriptures to go back to our real home Satlok.
