    Dhan Baba Isher Singh Ji Nanaksar Kaleran, Oct 7.

With my beloved Waheguru,            I play the game of prem bhakti,      if I win, He is mine,                      and If I lose, I am His.

Unknown.

Be drunk with love, for love is all that exists

Asceticism doesn't lie in mere words; He is an ascetic who treats everyone alike. Asceticism doesn't lie in visiting burial places; it lies not in wandering about nor in bathing at places of pilgrimage. Asceticism is to remain pure amidst impurities.

*Note: and purity comes only by meditating on Nam

"Don't judge each day by the harvest you reap but by the seeds you plant."
- Robert Stevenson

Note: This beautiful quotation above, took me towards another beautiful point, which is that, we too should not be judgemental about our daily life, for there is hardly much we can do as per our pralabdh karam; but yes, we  should be attentive and ask ourselves about many seeds of Waheguru´s Naam, have we planted today in the soil of our minds.

For it is the seeds of His name alone, which we shall carry along with us, at our departure time from this earthly plane.
