ਦੇਵਾ ਪਾਹਨ ਤਾਰੀਅਲੇ ॥
Dhaevaa Paahan Thaareealae ||
God makes even stones float.
ਰਾਮ ਕਹਤ ਜਨ ਕਸ ਨ ਤਰੇ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥
Raam Kehath Jan Kas N Tharae ||1|| Rehaao ||
So how come one not float across, by chanting Your Name, O Lord?
In these 2 verses above, Guru Jee clearly tells us that, if ever even remotely, we want to cross the mahabhavsagar and reach our true Nijh Ghar in Sach Khand, no other practice is of our avail, except that one of repeating His holy name.
And sadly to say, it is this very Bhakti which most of us relegate as a last option in our daily practices, that too, when Guru Jee has clearly stressed upon, in each Ang, in each verse, upon what type of Bhakti to perform, the one in which, solely His holy Name is meditated upon, yet we shamelessly and ignorantly avoid it, then too, we say we love and firmly believe in Guru Jee.
What a contradiction.
By other outer practices, we remain devoid of that divine Truth, which is nowhere outside, but right within us, and it is only by His chintan, His meditation, that we are transported from outer 9 gates and portals, towards within ourselves, the Tenth gate, there where He has kept Himself fully for us, but alas, nobody does any such thing to reach there. For nobody is even slightly interested in performing that unique bhakti, which Guru Jee constantly reminds us throught out the Bani.
Stay blessed.

Question 10: Sachay Patshah, why do You throughout the Bani emphasize only on Nam Bhakti as per means of true devotion?
Guru Jee: ਕਹਤੁ ਕਬੀਰ ਨਵੈ ਘਰ ਮੂਸੇ ਦਸਵੈਂ ਤਤੁ ਸਮਾਈ ॥੩॥੨੨॥੭੩॥
Kehath Kabeer Navai Ghar Moosae Dhasavain Thath Samaaee ||3||22||73||
Says Kabeer, the nine openings of the body are being plundered; rise up to the Tenth Gate, and discover the True essence.
Here, what Guru Jee is trying to tell us, is that, the object of whatever efforts of ours as per means of bhakti, is to take us nearer to the True essence, or essence of Spirituality.
And as seen in His words, He says that, that essence of Truth lies in the Tenth Gate, means above the other nine gates or portals, such as : 2 eyes, 2 ears, 2 nostrils, 1 mouth and 2 lower apertures, through which our attention is scattered in the mayavee creation.
So as long our attention does not approach towards that essence of Truth, which lies above the eyes at the center of our head, we are much far away from our objective, thus, no matter how many days or hours continously we remain engaged in those practices, we have not get nearer towards it, not even a fraction of an inch.
For it is only by Nam bhakti that we collect our attention or soul consciousness within and upwards towards the Tenth Gate, there where lies the True subtle essence of Truth.....
And the more we do that nishkam bhakti with love, the more His blessings upon us, which is nothing but His apaar kirpa, by which we are cleansed throughly, and become fit to merge and become one with Him.
Manumukhs try all sorts of practices accordingly to please their minds thus they feel they are doing something worthy; but it is only by following Gurmat, which only stresses upon Nam bhakti, for it is only by treading this path of Nam Bhakti laid by Guru Jee Himself as per means of true Bhakti, to get closer and become one with Him.
See by yourselves, that by all other practices except Nam bhakti, we remain scattered in the 9 apertures or gates , thus far away from our goal of Truth, so, we are not to copy what the world does, and please the world, it is to Him who we have to please, namely Waheguru Akal Purukh, by focussing ourselves on the ever regular practice of Nam bhakti.
Nam bhakti is called true bhakti, becuase it gets us closer and closer to that Highest Universal unchangeable Truth of Satnam/Wahegru.
Stay blessed.

Consider the example:
raam naam ur mai gahi-o jaa kai sam nahee ko-ay
jih simrat sankat mitai daras tuhaaro ho-ay.
This verse seems very characteristics of a Bhagat who has enshrined the 'Ram' Naam and infering it to be a generic 'Lord' doesn't make sense.
With Ram Nam, what Guru Jee wants to tell us, is, that the word Ram is used to describe the Creator, who is rameeya (permeated,omnipresent) hua in all and everywhere, that is why He is called Ram, thus obviously it does not refer to Sree Ram, the son of Dashrat and an incarnation of sree Vishnu Jee.
And as Nam is all pervading, thus Nam is the Ram or the Creator Lord.
So to conclude, Nam is Ram(the all pervading), or if preferred, Ram the creator is Nam(for those who can not grasp the idea of what Nam is in reality).
Nam a creative power, a highest state of Consciousness.
To this Nam, we call it Shabad also, Sachee Bani, Amrit Bani, Dhur kee Bani, Waheguru, Akal Purukh, Satnam, Aad Sach...
Stay blessed.

Thinking That We are Perfect,
AND
Others Need to Be Corrected,
Is Just Like
Cleaning the Mirror,
Instead Of Cleaning Our Face.!Look at yourself like a colour you may not be favourite of everyone
but one day someone will need you to complete their picture.
People don't insult us.
They give their opinion based on their Sanskars not OURS.
We take their words and make them our identity
and then
use that identity to create hurt.
Good Morning
Have a nice day -
Just enjoy this blissful keertan of Ik Oankar

SSA.
Brother, though the question you ask is about realized souls, but according to Gurmat, that much I can tell you that, it is seen felt and realized by the soul, but not by its own merits, but by the kirpa of Shabad Guru, who takes back, the surat dhun chela back to its Nijh Ghar, namely Sach Khand, the eternal abode of Waheguru Akal Purukh, for as we know the Bani says : Nanak, Nam jahaaz hae, jinee chareeya se utareeya paar. Nam/Shabad is the Highest Consciousness, of which the jeev atma is a particle, just as a drop is to the Ocean.
The soul has factulties of seeing and hearing, beyond the mayavee realms, the soul having discarded all its perishable coverings, gains full consciousness of its true nature, and at all times in the company of Shabad Guru, it soars higher and higher, just as bullet shot from a gun, towards its source, its origin: Satnam.
Or let´s say in this way, the child soul, in the company of father Shabad Guru, holding his father´s finger, walks, sees and listens everything , while returning back home, and there it merges and bceomes the Ocean, Father itself, for there where He is, only He exists. No duality, only Oneness, the one of Satnam.
Stay blessed.

Lol... such a humble reply! But sadly that's.. No use bro! Haters are meant for ninda. They are created for the purpose. There were many at the time of Guruji and there are many rather more today. So no point telling them the truth they don't have 'those' ears to hear .. comprehending Gurbani is a boon these kinds are not meant for !
Pen Jee,
Truth of Gurbani should be shared whenever, wherever needed.
Just as the Sun gives it sunlight equally to all creatures, so if the bats prefer the darkness.... It is their problem, for the light is there for all.
Similarly Gurmat/Gurbani is open there for the benefit of all, but, what can the poor jeeva do if accordingly to the laws of Nature, Waheguru has kept some particular jeevas stuck in the mayavee creation.
I myself never condem anybody, if they are unaware of the Supreme Truth of Waheguru Akal Purukh.
It is in nobody's hands to believe or not believe in Waheguru...He Himself is the one pulling the strings in one direction or in the other.
Having said that, I would also add that, whosoever is on the path of Sikhee, is a sign of utter grace from His side, for which we should be deeply thankful with each breath.
That's it.
Stay blessed.

Raj ji,
Just some clarifications:
It is not being a khalistani which takes u somewhere.
No true sikh needs Sree Ram, Sree Krishan, nor any other gods, godesses, trinities, nothing of that stuff...
We have only one goal, as Sree Guru Nanak Dev Maharaj states in the begining of SGGS, which is as follows:
Ik Oankar : only 1 god, who is Satnam.
He is met by the the jaap of Gurparsad, the holy name of Waheguru.
Sikhee is an universal path of love and devotion to the Highest eternal Truth, irrespective of color, caste, creed/dharam/religion.
As the Bani says: Sabna jeea ka Iko Daata.
The intention of Sikhee is not to convert anyone, but just to transform from a dark and heavy sinner into a pure soul, in order to merge and become one without distinction, with the ultimate and changeless Highest consciousness, namely Waheguru Akal Purukh.
I invite you to throughly the Bani without any rush and then come and tell us your sincere opinions.
Stay blessed brother.

I have a query. Can anyone share their personal experiences of taking hukamnama from Guru Granth Sahib ji and experienced that guru ji is saying exactly what's on their mind? This will strengthen the faith of many.
SSA Pen Jee,
Gurbani is Amrit, whenever I take a Hukumnama, I intend to sip each bachan from it, and try to understand what Guru Jee is trying to say in it.
I prefer to tune my mind with the Bani rather than to find answers for myself, for Guru Jee knows what I need in that moment.
If ever we need anything to ask Guru Jee, we should ask blessings in order to strengthen our faith and love for Waheguru's Lotus Feet, rest all is karmic account.
Stay blessed.

I will let other more qualified members here answer your question.
Just curious how long have you been married?
Were you amritdhari and she non amritdhari when you got married?
If yes ,why did you marry a non amritdhari woman if you wanted someone that was amritdhari?
That was the package you opted for so why try to change someone now?
Whatever you do,don't force her or use violence/guilt on her as it will backfire on you and make her hate you.You don't want that.
The best thing you can do is live and act in such a way that makes her look up to you and respect you.Be an example to her and it will surely have an effect in bringing her closer to Sikhi.
Indeed a very good and complete answer by Jageera veer jee above.
To this only that much I would add that let us be good human beings with our fellow beings, and keep Waheguru in our minds as goal.
Each and every person has a chalked destiny by the wise Nature due to their own karmas which nobody can alter.
So as Jageera says, be an example, without any pressure or force on her, that by itself will slowly and slowly impact her in a gentle and subtle way, that much only is in one's hands.

5 hours ago, tva prasad said:when in the world the sinful ways will be on the rise and noble behavior will vanish, as the disappearance of the moon when on its wane on the darkest night, there will appear Vishnu as a prominent Prophet from the Keshatra Clan and will manifest in consecutive form through 10 Prophets to bring back the ways of virtue to the ailing world."
This quotation above reflects the job given to the different Avatars and deities for the maintenance of the Triloki creation and to re-establish morality/virtues whenever there is a downfall of it. That's it, nothing more nothing less.
Their devotees enjoy the fruits or rewards of their faith and devotion towards them, yet remain as individual identities. What to say about their devotees, when even their spouses and other beings remain with forms, genders, etc.
These avtars and prophets are a hindrance between the jeev atmas and Akal Purukh, for their role is to keep functioning the mayavee triloki creation.
They themselves are unaware of the path of Nam bhakti, thus, they are very much stucked in the web spread by their mother Maya.
On the other side, Guru Sahiban, Brahmgyanis, Gurmukhs, Bhagat Jan, come with the akhoot wealth of Nam/Shabad, through which They teach us how to board on the jahaaz of Nam, cross all the mayavee creations, reach Sach Khand, the region of everlasting Truth, and merge there in Waheguru, thus becoming one with Akal Purukh.
This is the main difference between Gurmat and all other paths/philosophies/religions.
I respect all avtars and prophets, but none are match to my beloved Waheguru Akal Purukh.
While all others are just tiny stars in the dark infinite firmament, my Waheguru is the very huge Sun, the dispeller of all darkness/agyanta.
Stay blessed.

19 minutes ago, tva prasad said:There is no polite way to say this but you guys are stupid.
"Oh, I read the first few lines and it says murlee manohar, krishan, hari. Oh yeah, gurbani is praising krishan as the almighty. Let's head to the nearest iscon temple, yeah!"
BTW, I am not denying that Krishan is worthy of our respect.
Let me explain myself. Had you guys read the shabad properly, it is not hard to understand that this is not in the praise of the satoguni Vishnu, rather the one beyond satogun, brahman/ vaheguru himself. It says, "you are ram chand the one without any form". That is talking about the formless lord within ram chandar. "you are krishna and the gopis", this indicates that the whole creation is brahman/ vaheguru/ parbraham/ allah/etc. The formless one is in all. The shabad further mentions how god has "many limbs". This is definitely not about Vishnu, rather the form of vaheguru which is expansive, endless and infinite. This shabad is to highlight and praise the non-dual nature of vaheguru, yet his many forms are conveyed, which are the very essence of the creation. There is none other than he, even that is the idea that is so poetically conveyed in this shabad. Interesting, is it not? He is the formless one yet he has infinite forms. These forms, however are a play. They are in fact, the same form. This is understood when the ego loosens its grip on us. One truly realises that nothing is separate from the source, vaheguru and that everything is within him even as he resides in all.
Therefore, Vishnu is not praised as he is subject to death. He is bound by maya due to being satoguni. Prior to him, many Vishnus have served the creation and many will do so after the present Vishnu. So many Krishnas and Ramas have walked the earth. So many yet to come. There is no end to the lord's creation. For he is the creator and the one that manifests as the created. "Brahm mahesar bisan sachipat ant phase jam phaas parenge". Brahm= brahma, mahesar=shiva, bisan= Vishnu, Sachipat= husband of sachi (Indra). Hence, Brahama, shiva, Vishnu and Indra are subject to the noose of the god of death. How, then can they save us from our mortal woes?
It is a matter of fact that, the shabad is praising the infinite forms of vaheguru which he manifests in, to take part in his creation. Hence, the formless lord is being praised, for he alone is the one that governs the hearts of all he alone is all there is. He is maya, brahma, Vishnu, shiva, indra, etc. He is detached yet part of his creation. The creation is in him and he is in the creation. Every atom of the universe is occupied by him, he is within the hearts of all, man and beast. I do not see how this shabad can be interpreted in a way as you have done as that is not even what is implied. And it is crystal clear.
Congrats bro for this your true and brave post.
I agree 101% with you.
Waheguru Akal Purukh is the only one eternal Truth.
He is Truth. Guru Sahiban are one with that Truth. And Bhagat Jan, Gurmukh Jan, just as Guru Jee also, draw our attention to that one Truth, by the means of Nam bhakti alone.
Stay blessed.
