Identification of a True Saint
165
There is evidence in Vedas, Gita Ji etc Holy Scriptures that
whenever there is decline of virtues and an uprise of sins and the
form of the path of bhakti is distorted by the contemporary saints,
mahants, and gurus, at that time, God either by coming Himself or
by sending His most knowledgeable saint again establishes the
virtues by means of the true knowledge. He explains the path of
bhakti according to the scriptures. His identification is that the
contemporary religious gurus stand in his opposition, and by
misleading the king and the people, inflict atrocities on Him. Kabir
Sahib Ji says in His speech that —
Jo mm sant sat updesh drdaavae (bataavae),
vaake sang sabhi raad badaavae ⎜⎜
Ya sab sant mahantan ki karni,
Dharmdas main to se varni ⎜⎜
God Kabir Ji is explaining to His dear disciple Dharmdas in
His speech that the saint of mine who will tell the path of true bhakti,
all the saints and mahants will quarrel with him. This will be the
identity of that Complete (Purna) Saint.
Second identity: That saint is a complete knower of all the
religious texts. Evidence in Satguru Garibdas Ji’s speech —
“Satguru ke lakshan kahoon, madhure baen vinod ⎜
Chaar ved shat shastr, kahae athaara bodh ⎜⎜”
Satguru Garibdas Ji Maharaj is telling the identity of a
Complete Saint in his speech that he will be a complete knower of
all the four Vedas, six shastras, eighteen Purans etc i.e. he will explain
their essence. It is written in Yajurved Adhyay 19 Mantra 25, 26
that he will elaborate the incomplete sentences of the Vedas i.e. the
coded words and one-fourth shloks by completing them, and will tell
the pooja of three times. In the morning, pooja of Purna Parmatma;
in the afternoon, regard of the gods of the world, and will tell Sandhya
Aarti (evening prayer) separately. He is a beneficent saint of the
