17th August:- With the divine
blessings of Satguru Mata Sudiksha Ji Maharaj, Mukti Parv Samagam was
successfully organised at the Sant Nirankari Satsang Bhawan, Chandigarh, Niranjan
Singh (I.A.S Retd.). addressing on the significance of this occasion, Niranjan Singh
Ji stated that Nirankaris celebrate Mukti Parv on this day to commemorate and
pay tribute to the saints who devotedly surrendered their lives in spreading
and promoting truth.
While Mukti Parv was celebrated through all the branches in India and
abroad, the main congregation was held in the benign presence of Satguru Mata
Ji at Delhi. Nirankari Satguru Mata Sudiksha Ji, while addressing a huge
gathering at the Mukti Parv Samagam, stated that to surrender selflessly and
giving up one’s ego is the most important quality of a devotee. This helps him
rise in the eyes of the True Master and earn praise from one and all. Thousands
of devotees came from Delhi, Greater Delhi and several other parts of the
country.Several saints from abroad were also present.
Satguru Mata Sudiksha Ji said that during Mukti Parv, the Mission
remembers and takes inspiration from Shahenshah Baba Avtar Singh Ji and a host
of devotees who followed him and took this Mission forward. Their most
important quality was self-surrender at the holy feet of the True Master and
the spirit of giving priority and more importance to others. There were no ‘Ifs’
and ‘Buts’ in their conduct.
Her Holiness reminded that Baba Hardev Singh Ji and Mata Savinder Hardev
Ji also wanted to bring back the Mission of the times of ShahenshahJi. And this
can happen only if we also develop the quality of egoless surrender and giving
preference to others like the devotees of those times.
Mata SudikshaJi said that while sailing a boat we cannot control the strong
winds but we can always adjust our sails. Hence, we can also take inspiration
from ShahenshahJi and the advantage of those principles with the spirit of
total surrender.
Mata Ji recalled that initially the day was known as Jagat mata Budhwanti
Ji and Shahenshah Diwas. But when the first President of the Sant Nirankari
Mission Pradhan Labh Singh Ji breathed his last on this day in 1979, Baba
Gurbachan Singh Ji named it as Mukti Parv Samagam. He did not mind that hitherto
to the day was dedicated to his holy Mother and Father, but included all the
devotees who also served the Mission with full sense of surrender to take this
Mission forward.
