Gurmukhi Gian Come To Learn Punjabi -English-punjabi By Dr. Satnam Singh Sandhu

Recitation of the Lord's Name is everything.
Recitation is the service to the Lord.
Recitation is worship of the Lord.
Recitation is the love of the Lord.
I live, when I recite his Name
I die, when I forget his Name

Yes it is so true Harsharan
'Banee Guru, Guru ha Banee' - Guru Ram Das jee.

The Banee is the Guru, the Guru is the Banee'

When Great Guru, True Guru, SatGuru Nanak Dev jee was on His missionary tour (Udassi) in Siri Lanka, the king really became attatched to Guru Nanak and couldn't bear to see Satguru jee depart. The king asked how will I be blessed with your holy presence if you leave (i.e. how will I have your vision (Darshan) )? Satguru jee explained to him that Guru Nanak was not the physical body that the king had met. Guru Nanak was the shabad (the word of Waheguru jee). Of course the body was very blessed because it was the Shabad-Guru's outer covering, but the Guru was the shabad ( the Divine teacher is the word of Waheguru). Satguru jee told the king to become attatched to the shabad.

Ultimately a person gets so attatched to the Shabad that they reach a state called 'Shabad-surat da mel'also known as 'liv'. This means when the shabad and you are merged like water merging into the ocean. This is when you hear the unstruck melody and see Waheguru jee's light which brighter than hundreds and thousands of Suns. This is when you return home to Waheguru jee. This is the place from where the Shabd originated and this where it has brought you back.

I found more at sikhbookclub.com. E-books can be downloaded for free.

The Guru’s teachings enlighten minds and fill it with Lord’s prayers. He states- “Our mind can arise only if we love God, loving him is remembering him, and to remember is reciting his name as O Lord O lord O lord or WaheGuru, Waheguru, WaheGuru WaheGuru.”

“Recitation of the Lord's Name is everything.
Recitation is the service to the Lord.
Recitation is worship of the Lord.
Recitation is the love of the Lord.
I live, when I recite his Name
I die, when I forget his Name.”

Read Guru Nanak chamatkar which is a reminiscence of the divine glory of Guru Nanak Dev and the power of his teachings to realize the presence of lord beside us today and always.
