CNN Central News & Network–ITDC India Epress/ITDC News Bhopal: In this world, there are many types of people with different languages, attire, food habits, castes, religions, and cultures. Yet, despite all these differences, one thing is common among all of us — we are all human beings. Regardless of our 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 divine being.

Many saints have expressed this sentiment in their own languages and styles at different times and places, conveying the message that “the entire world is one family.” For nearly 95 years, the Sant Nirankari Mission has not only been spreading this message but also regularly organizing numerous congregations and gatherings to provide a living example of this idea. This year too, millions of devotees of the Mission are preparing to attend the 77th Annual Nirankari Sant Samagam, to be held at the Sant Nirankari Spiritual Complex, Samalkha, Haryana, on November 16, 17, and 18, 2024, showcasing yet again a grand spectacle of humanity. Devotees from across the country and abroad will gather to experience the divine presence of Satguru Mata Sudiksha Maharaj and Revered Nirankari Rajpita Ramit Ji, feeling blessed by their holy presence and working together to brighten their minds through the teachings of the Sant Samagam.

The commencement of the service to prepare the grounds for the Sant Samagam was ceremonially inaugurated today by the divine hands of Satguru Mata Sudiksha Maharaj and Nirankari Rajpita. On this occasion, all members of the Mission’s executive committee, central Sewadal officers, and thousands of other devotees were present. It is notable that at this vast Samagam site, spread over 600 acres, various arrangements are made for the stay, food, health, and transportation of millions of saints. For this, devotees from different locations work selflessly throughout the month. Saints and sewadars from all walks of life, along with their loved ones, will gather at this sacred event to enjoy the divine essence of unity. This year’s Samagam theme is “Expansion Towards the Infinite.”

Addressing a large congregation during the inauguration of the Samagam services, Satguru Mata stated that while performing service, one should not view it through the lens of discrimination, but instead, always perform it selflessly and without any personal desire. Service is only truly rewarding when there are no ifs or buts, and it should have no time limits — not just during the Samagam or until it ends, but the spirit of service should continue until the next Samagam and beyond. It is a continuous process. Service should always be done with a spirit of selflessness, regardless of whether one is physically able or not, as the power of service lies in the intention behind it.

The Nirankari Sant Samagam, eagerly awaited by devotees throughout the year, is a divine festival that glorifies humanity, boundless love, boundless compassion, boundless trust, and boundless devotion, all rooted in the knowledge of the infinite divine. All lovers of humanity are welcome to this celebration.
