 Early Times Report
Jammu, Oct 6: In this world, there are various types of people who differ in language, attire, food, caste, religion, and culture. Despite all these differences, one thing remains common among all of us: we are all human beings. No matter of our skin color, attire, country, or food, the same blood flows through our veins, and we all breathe the same air. We are all children of the same Supreme Being. Many saints have expressed this idea across different times and places in their own languages and styles, conveying the message “the entire world is one family.” For nearly 95 years, the Sant Nirankari Mission has been spreading this message, not only through words but by organizing various spiritual congregations and Samagams, serving as a living example of this philosophy. This year as well, millions of devotees from across the world will gather for the 77th Annual Nirankari Sant Samagam, which will take place from 16th to 18th November 2024 at the Sant Nirankari Spiritual Ground in Samalkha, Haryana. These devotees will have the blessed opportunity to seek the divine blessings of Satguru Mata Sudiksha Ji Maharaj and Nirankari Rajpita Ramit Ji while also striving to purify their minds through the teachings of the Samagam. The sewa of preparing the grounds for this sacred Samagam was formally initiated today, on 6th October, by Satguru Mata Sudiksha Ji Maharaj and Nirankari Rajpita Ji, as is done every year. Members of the Mission’s executive committee, central Sewadal officers, and thousands of other devotees were present on the occasion. It is noteworthy that this vast Samagam site, spread over 600 acres, accommodates millions of saints, providing arrangements for lodging, food, healthcare, and transportation, among other services. Devotees from different places come together and selflessly offer their services for an entire month to prepare the site. Saints and Sewadars from all walks of life, along with their families, will gather at this holy Samagam to experience the divine unity. This year’s theme is “Vistaar asmeem ki aur.”
During the grand congregation following the initiation of Samagam sewa, Satguru Mata Ji addressed the gathering, emphasizing that sewa should not be viewed through the lens of discrimination, but should always be done selflessly and without expectations. Sewa becomes a blessing only when it is free from conditions or limitations. It should not be restricted to the duration of the Samagam or end with the Samagam; rather, the spirit of sewa should continue until the next Samagam and beyond. Sewa is a continuous process and should always be done with a spirit of devotion, regardless of one’s physical abilities, as it is the intention and spirit of sewa that matter most.
The Nirankari Sant Samagam, eagerly awaited by every devotee throughout the year, is a divine celebration that embodies infinite love, infinite compassion, infinite faith, and infinite surrender, all rooted in the knowledge of the Infinite Supreme. Every lover of humanity and religion is warmly welcomed to this celebration. |
