The essence of all the saints and scriptures is that by taking the name from the Complete Guru who has all the three names and also has the right to name them, the living being should get rid of the disease of birth and death. Because our aim is to free you from the prison of time and get you the Satlok of your original master KavirDev (Kabir Saheb). KavirDev has said in his speech that the virtue of taking a soul away from Kaal Sadhna and bringing it to a Complete Guru and giving it true teachings is as much as it is to get rid of crores of animals like cows, goats etc. from the butcher. Because this innocent human being, being trapped in Kaal's net by doing sadhna which is against the scriptures told by wrong gurus, continues to bear the pain of eighty-four lakh births. When this soul comes under the shelter of KavirDev (Kabir Saheb) through the entire Guru, gets attached to the name, then its suffering of birth and death ends forever and attains real supreme peace in Satlok.
In this world, there is a flood of religious gurus. It is said ‘Neem Hakeem Khatra e Jaan’ (नीम हकीम खतरे जान), means a little knowledge is a dangerous thing. Anyone who reads holy scriptures and becomes a bit knowledgeable in the path of devotion starts claiming himself to be a religious guru and portrays that he is close to God, is familiar with the divine and starts preaching. But the most difficult question remains unanswered for the devotees; who is the real and true satguru?
The fact remains that a Satguru is not easy to find, and not everyone can be a Satguru, a true religious teacher, a true saint.
Satguru in its literal sense is a True (Sat) Saint (Guru); one who is the incarnation of God, and reveals the untold truth. A Satguru is identified by his knowledge. If that knowledge is attested by the scriptures, only then he is a Satguru. He imparts the true path of worship and teaches everyone to renounce all evils and leads them in the true and correct path of devotion to attain Salvation. Satguru tells us what are the benefits of doing true worship by staying in dignity. Apart from this a Satguru can destroy all sufferings. He is the giver of happiness, and loves his devotees. A true saint also teaches us to dwell beyond caste, creed, and color. A Satguru comes to free us all from the bondages of the materialistic world and guides us on how to lead our lives with an aim to attaining salvation?.
Who is a Satguru / True Saint?
Satguru is that precious treasure acquiring whom human beings can attain the ultimate abode, ‘Shashwat’ place ie. 'Sanatan Param Dham' or the 'Eternal World'. The title Satguru is specifically given to an Enlightened Saint also called a ‘Tatvadarshi Saint’ / a ‘Bakhabar’ / a Messiah. An enlightened saint is the knower of true spiritual knowledge whose life’s purpose is to impart a correct way of worship to initiated souls with which they will get relieved from the trap of Shaitan / Devil i.e. Brahm-Kaal and will reach their native place and attain God. A Satguru is one who knows the Supreme Lord of Truth ie. Satpurush or the Param Akshar Purush who is the creator of the universe.
What is the Significance of a Satguru / True Saint
Kabir Sahib says
कबीर, गुरू बिन माला फेरते गुरू बिन देते दान।
गुरू बिन दोनों निष्फल है पूछो वेद पुराण।।
Kabir, guru bin mala ferte, guru bin dete daan
Guru bin dono nishfal hain, poochho Ved Puran
Satguru holds an important role in the life of a devotee. A true saint provides true worship, doing which humans can attain supreme peace. All the sorrows of life will get removed by performing the worship described by Satguru. The illness of birth and rebirth finishes once for all after following the spiritual direction of a true saint. Satguru tells us the perfect knowledge from all the holy scriptures with proof. The aim of human life is only to do true worship and attain salvation. Satguru leads us in the true and correct path of worship to attain Salvation.
"A Satguru can be a guru but not every guru can be a Satguru"
Why do Human Beings Need a True Guru?

The only way to get relief from all sorrows is to take refuge of an enlightened saint and do true worship.

Worshipable Almighty Kabir Ji glorifies Satguru in his speech
सात समुद्र की मसि करूं लेखनी करूं वनराय
धरती का कागज करूं गुरु गुण लिखा न जाए
Saat Samundra ki masi karun, lekhni karun vanrai
Dharti ka kagaz karun, guru gun likha ne jaaye
Kabir Ji says ‘make the ink of seven oceans, make a pen from all the trees on earth, make the whole earth a writing page and start writing qualities of a True Saint / Satguru; even then the qualities will not finish since they are in abundance’.
Having understood that Satguru is essential in human life; let us now learn what the aim of true worship is.

Identification of a Satguru has been mentioned in the Holy Scriptures, with which contemporary Sages, Saints, Mandaleshwars etc., due to lack of true spiritual knowledge, have remained ignorant. Tatvadarshi Great Saint Rampal Ji Maharaj has untangled spiritual facts from Holy Scriptures and has explained who is a Satguru? What is the identity of a complete saint?
Identification of a Complete Saint from the Holy Scriptures
What is the Identity of a Complete Saint?
Ref: Kabir Sagar and Shrimad Bhagawad Gita
यदा यदा हि धर्मस्य ग्लानिर्भवति भारत
अभ्युथानम् अधर्मस्य तदात्मानं सृजाम्यहम्
There is evidence in Vedas, pious Gita Ji, etc Holy Scriptures that whenever there is a 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 through true knowledge. He explains the path of bhakti according to the holy scriptures.
While explaining the identity of a complete saint Almighty KavirDev tells
First identity: His identification lies in the fact that the contemporary religious gurus stand in his opposition, and by misleading the king and the people, inflict atrocities on Him.
Second identity: A True saint is a complete knower of all the religious texts.
Third identity: A complete saint will give updesh (initiation) of three types of mantras (Naam).
Fourth identity: A complete saint will provide worship three times a day.
Fifth identity: A complete saint does not allow the consumption of intoxication or meat to seekers and not to do meditation or to dance and play music.
Sixth identity: The enlightened saint will explain the upside-down hanging world like the tree mentioned in Gita Chapter 15 verse 1-4.
Seventh identity: Satguru will be one who will tell the secret of the two-words mantra- ‘Satnam’.
Let us understand the identity of a complete saint with proofs from holy scriptures.
First Identity: His identification lies in the fact 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
जो मम संत सत उपदेश दृढ़ावै (बतावै), वाके संग सभि राड़ बढ़ावै।
या सब संत महंतन की करणी, धर्मदास मैं तो से वर्णी।।
Jo mm sant sat updesh drdaavae (batavae), 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 Saint.
Second Identity: True saint is a complete knower of all the religious texts.
A true saint is the complete knower of pious 4 Vedas, 6 shastras, 18 Puranas, Shrimad Bhagawad Gita, pious Quran Sharif, Holy Bible, and pious Guru Granth Sahib, etc.
Satguru Garibdas Ji says in his speech
सतगुरु के लक्षण कहूं, मधूरे बैन विनोद।
चार वेद षट शास्त्रा, कहै अठारा बोध
“Satguru ke lakshan kahoon, madhure baen vinod |
Chaar ved shat shastra, 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 who will explain their essence.
Third Identity: A complete saint will give updesh (initiation) of three types of mantras (Naam).

Ja ko hoy divya gyan parvesha, tako kahe tatv gyan updesha
Description of the Channels within Human Body & Deities Who Govern ‘Chakras’
Our Gurudev Rampal Ji Maharaj in the first stage gives Jaap of Naam of Shri Ganesh Ji, Shri Brahma-Savitri Ji, Shri Lakshmi-Vishnu Ji, Shri Shankar-Parvati Ji and Mother Sheranwali, who reside in the chakras built in our human body.
Shri Ganesh Ji resides in 'Mooladhara' chakra
Brahma-Savitri Ji resides in 'Swaad' chakra
Lakshmi-Vishnu Ji resides in 'Naabhi' chakra
Shankar-Parvati Ji resides in 'Hridaya' chakra
Mother Sheranwali resides in 'Kanth' chakra
All these gods-goddesses have Aadi-Anadi Naam (eternal / Original name) mantras, of which the contemporary gurus are not aware of. By the Jaap of these mantras, all these five chakras that are situated in the spine from the base till the crown of the head open up. A human being becomes suitable for doing bhakti after these chakras open up.
Satguru Garibdas Ji gives evidence in his speech
पांच नाम गुझ गायत्री आत्म तत्व जगाओ।
ॐ किलियं हरियम् श्रीयम् सोहं ध्याओ।।
Paanch naam gujh gayatri aatm tatv jagaao
ॐ kiliyaM hariyam shriyam sohM dhyaao
Meaning: Awaken your soul by doing Jaap of five Naam which are ‘Gujh Gayatri’.
Some innocent devotees say that our Guruji arouses Kundalini power. It is a request to them that Kundalini Power can not be aroused without the Gayatri mantra; they are only misleading you.
In the second stage, Sant Rampal Ji gives Jaap of two words, among which one is ‘Om’ and the second is Tat’ (which is a secret and is only told to an updeshi / follower), which are chanted through breaths.
In the third stage, Sant Rampal Ji gives Saarnaam which is a complete secret.
It is clear from the aforementioned speech that a Complete Saint provides mantras up to Saarnaam in three stages and in the fourth stage provides Saarshabd.
Evidence of Three Stages Naam Jaap in Shrimad Bhagawad Gita
Gita Adhyay 17 Shlok 23
