What Is the Secret of Such Incidents?

The world is full of infightings. Each one is engaged in achieving something. When one fulfills desires, he/she develops another one. For example, Donald Trump became a wealthy person and the President of a mighty country. But his behavior remains as if he is a destitute. That’s why he behaved in an ill manner. It is not only Trump but everyone who does so. Such behavior is indulged by Nature so that the person remains busy in worldly passions. He forgets the real purpose of getting rid of this world to return to his original home, The Eternal Abode, Satlok.  

What Is the Spiritual Remedy Thereof?

The Supreme God Kavirdev or Kabir Sahib says the remedy lies in Sat-Bhakti. By performing Sat-Bhakti and adhering to the rules, the seeker achieves the desired needs and, in the end, goes to the Eternal Abode, Satlok. Once the seeker goes to, Satlok will not take rebirth and permanently get freed from the cycle of birth and death. Salok is an ocean of permanent pleasure where there are no sorrows.

Go to The Refuge of Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj

The Sat-Bhakti is performed after taking a Naam Diksha (Initiation) from Enlightened Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj. Therefore the seekers should come to the refuge of Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj and follow Sat-Bhakti. To understand this more in-depth, one should read the Sacred Book The Way of Living and visit the Satlok Ashram YouTube Channel.
