Real Investment of Human Life
Despite the heavy investments and rapid advances in science and technology, the real goal of human life remains undiscovered.
Jagatguru Tatvadarshi Sant Rampal Ji Maharaj reveals that the only purpose of a human life is to do true worship of our ultimate Creator, Supreme God Kabir.
By being engrossed in scientific advancements, humans have forgotten God. In doing so, our accumulated spiritual wealth also depreciates. Sant Rampal Ji guides us that a part of the precious time of human life must be invested in the worship of God Kabir to achieve complete salvation, and eradicate all troubles in life and thereafter. Kabir Saheb has stated:
Kabir, Yeh Maya Atpati, Sab Ghat Aan Adi |
Kis Kis Ku Samjhau, Kuye Bhaang Padi ||
