कहैं कबीर अक्षर के आगे निःअक्षर उजियाला।।

Shabd (hymn): - “Santo shabdaii shabd bakhaana”

In this shabd (hymn) “Santo shabdaii shabd bakhaana”, it is written that all the saints sing the glory of shabd (naam). Maharaj Kabir Sahib has told that shabd is also of SatPurush, which is a symbol of SatPurush, and Niranjan’s (Kaal’s) symbol is also shabd only. Like the shabd ‘Jyoti Niranjan’ makes one attain Chaanchri mudra; Gorakh yogi attained this by doing a lot of meditation (Tap) which is not possible for a common man, and then Gorakh Naath became a Siddh by doing sadhna upto Kaal. He did not become liberated. When Kabir Sahib gave him Saar naam, then Gorakh Naath became free from Kaal. Therefore, those who do jaap of ‘Jyoti Niranjan’ naam, they can not escape from Kaal’s trap i.e. they can not go to Satlok. By doing jaap of shabd ‘Omkaar’ (Om), a devotee reaches the state of Bhoonchri mudra. Ved Vyaas did sadhna of this and remained in Kaal’s trap. By jaap of ‘SohM’ naam, one attains the state of Agochari mudra, and reaches Bhanvar Gufa (cave) built in Kaal’s lok. Sukhdev Rishi did sadhna of this, and only went to heaven. With shabd ‘Rarankar’, one reaches Khaichri mudra, the tenth gate (Sushmna). Brahma, Vishnu, and Mahesh, the trio, considering Rarankar only to be true, remained entangled in Kaal’s web. Shakti (Shriyam) shabd, makes one attain Unmani mudra, which was attained by King Janak, but he did not become liberated. Many saints have added ‘Satyanaam’ in the five naams in place of ‘Shakti’, when even ‘Satyanaam’ is no jaap (mantra). This is an indication towards the Sachcha (true) naam. Like, Satlok is also known as Sachchkhand, similarly is Satyanaam and Sachcha naam. ‘Satyanaam’ is not for jaap (recitation). Akaal moorat, Shabd Swaroopi Ram, SatPurush – these naams are not for attaining salvation because these are synonymous words of Purna Brahm Parmatma (the Supreme God). Like, Akaal Moorat – that God who has no kaal (destruction/death) (i.e. immortal). SatPurush – that God who does not get destroyed (immortal). Shabd Swaroopi Ram – that God whose form is a shabd (word) and word does not get destroyed and is imperishable (immortal). That God, who is immortal, who is known by the following names: Shabd Swaroopi Ram, Akaal Moorat, and SatPurush, has to be attained! This is like, water has three synonymous names in Hindi: Jal – Paani – Neer. By saying this one can not get water. For it one has to fix a hand pump, and then one obtains water.
