According to "Sant" Rampal adherents, celebrations of Chhat Puja are in violation of the scriptures, and the Gita forbids fasting: Details Rampal is a religious figurehead from India who belongs to the Kabir Panth religious dominance. He is a devotee of Swami Ramdevanand, a Garib Das Panth Hindu saint and local seer; Rampal quit his job as a junior engineer when Swami Ramdevanand selected him as his successor in 1994.
On social media, devotees of "Sant" Rampal have stated that the celebration of Chhat Puja is against the scriptures and that the Bhagavad Gita forbids fasting. For the murder of four women, Rampal, who goes by the name Sant Rampal ji Maharaj, is currently serving a life sentence in prison.
Chhat Puja, according to Rampal's devotees, is a "Sadhna against scripture" and an "arbitrary practice" against the same. They have also promoted their absurd claims about Chhat Puja by relying on baffling assertions regarding the Gita.
They say that the Bhagavad Gita's shloka 16 (the sixth adhyay) says that fasting makes sure that a person's bhakti is pointless.
Additionally, they assert that Chhat Puja is unable to guarantee salvation from the cycle of life and death.
Some have even stated that Chhat Puja is in opposition to the Bhagavad Gita. They claim that only worshiping the "supreme god" Kabir is beneficial.
Others suggested that in order to escape the cycle of life and death, people should seek refuge in Sant Ram.
Additionally, devotees of Sant Rampal have successfully established a connection between Kabir and the verses 1-4 of Chapter 15 of the Gita.
Propaganda that is anti-Chhat Puja and pro-Rampal is also promoted by verified accounts that have hundreds or even thousands of followers.
Who is the Maharaj of Sant Rampal ji?
Rampalians hold that Rampal was the last prophet and that Kabir is the real Allah. God sends prophets to set an example of how to be a good human being. Most people consider Prophet Muhammad to be Islam's last prophet. Muslims hold the belief that God directly revealed the Quran, their holy book.
According to Rampal's website, Muslims have held the belief that "Kaazis and Mullahs" have narrated the Quran Sharif for ages. Rampal asserts that Muslims lack proper comprehension of the Quran. Rampal asserts that Kabir, the "complete God," is actually Allah. He cites a number of Ayats that "prove" that Allah is Kabir alone. He asserts that Kabir is actually the "Allah" in Allahu Akbar.
Rampal claims that Allah Kabir showed Prophet Muhammad the "Satlok" because he was a "pious man." Allah Kabir also met Taimur Lang, the founder of the Mughal dynasty, and "blessed" him, turning him from a poor shepherd into a "great conqueror." Rampal also says that after Sikander Lodhi was burned, Allah Kabir blessed him. Lodhi claims that after being healed, he became a follower of Allah Kabir because only he was deserving of worship.
