    ਵਿਣੁ ਨਾਵੈ ਦਰਿ ਢੋਈ ਨਾਹੀ ਤਾ ਜਮੁ ਕਰੇ ਖੁਆਰੀ

    Vin Naavai Dhar Dtoee Naahee Thaa Jam Karae Khuaaree ||

    विणु नावै दरि ढोई नाही ता जमु करे खुआरी ॥

    Without the Nam the mortal finds not the Court of the Lord; he shall be tortured by the Messenger of Death.

  2. ਪੂਛਤਨਜੋਤਕਅਉਬੇਦਥਿਤਿਵਾਰਕਛੁ॥ਗ੍ਰਿਹਅਉਨਖਤ੍ਰਕੀਨਸੰਕਾਉਰਧਾਰੀਹੈ॥ poochhat na jotak aau bedh thit vaar kachhu|| gireh aau nakhatr kee na sa(n)kaa auradhaaree hai || The Sikh who places his faith in the refuge of one True Guru, does not depend upon astrology or the command of Vedas, nor does he bring any doubt about the auspiciousness of a day/date or constellation of stars/planets to his mind. *Verily true The thing is, the position of the stars is also dependent by each individual´s karmas. I believe that, that apart from Guru Jee, as nobody has access to the sum amount of karmas, thus only THEY know, that all that happens or will happen, is by His Hukum, nobody can alter the law which governs equally on all, without favoring or inflicting any harm or injustice just by themselves, thus the true astrologers can only somehow by the position of the stars have a general idea of the fate of an individual, that´s it. The teachings of Guru Sahiban are truly very noble, high and pure, thus perfect from any angle. For the sikh, the Guru is His devotion, and His transcendental Lord, and as he has placed his head on the Lotus Feet of Guru Jee, he knows that Guru Jee bieng his Lord, is also his benefactor and protector as a mother and a father, thus nothing can come to him, which is not approved by Him. Such strong is the blessed faith and love in the sikh for Him. The Guru/Waheguru, is the only eternal and true shining Star as none, among all stars, galaxies, universes or even Khands. Wah wah Waheguru, sabh teree wadeeayee.

    Recognize the Lord's Light within all, and do not consider social class or status;

    there are no classes or castes in the world hereafter.

      This is beautiful. If I was to attempt a more literal interpretation it would be something like this.

      ਜਾਣਹੁ ਜੋਤਿ ਨ ਪੂਛਹੁ ਜਾਤੀ ਆਗੈ ਜਾਤਿ ਨ ਹੇ

      Recognise the light, don't ask about caste, there is no caste ahead.  

  4. Many translations are given and can be given by different people, which may and may not be accurate. In the verse above presented by you, I personally think the translation given is not correct, and is quite a manmukh view. Gurbani regarding this topic says: Sach Khand vaseh Nirankar. That´s it. Sach Khand is the abode of the True Emperor Akal Purukh. To say, He pervades every heart and then say also in the belly...is quite silly. Now, if by Ghat if it means the soul, then it it would be correct, for here heart could be a metaphoric term used to describe something related to life, for as we know as long as the heart keeps pumping/beating, means there is life in that body. Similarly, as long as the soul is within the body, it means that body is alive, for the soul is an particle of that Infinite Ocean of Truth Consciousness, namely Satnam. But from here as seen above, to the point to say, He is contained in the belly, sorry to say, but it is quite a capital nonsense. People may say things, let them say, but thankfully to Him, He has given us also some amount of budh and vivek, so for god´s sake, let us make use of it a bit.
  5. Found the following interesting article on the net, and thought of sharing with the sangat here. Is meditation, observing thoughts or not thinking? What is it exactly? Answer by Brian Jones, experience sharer/heartful helper. First, there are different types of meditation. For me, it is neither of the two that you mention. First, not thinking is a result of meditation and not the meditation itself. The mind thinks, period. That´s what it does! Now lets discuss observing thoughts. You are observing thoughts all the time. We are constantly doing this. Meditation is a practice that should train our awareness to NOT be observing our thoughts. If your mind is a hurricane and you learn how to gain control of where you place your awareness, you can train it to stay aware in the calm eye of the storm, instead of the wall of the storm (thoughts). The other example I give is if you want to become a skilled archer and you only shoot arrows into the sky, no skill really develops. You need to have an objective and target to develop that skill. So, in the meditation I do, we very gently keep bringing our awareness to the area of the heart. When we realize we are thinking again, we don’t struggle with it. Just very gently redirect your attention to the heart with the idea that we are resting there, on the source of light (love), already present within us. We feel it is drawing us inward. This type of meditation re-trains the mind from its random and often chaotic tendencies to become more regulated. Just the very act of taking our attention out of the head helps reduce the thought flow. Within a very short time, you will become quite expert at meditation and the mind will become permanently regulated. This is the practice of Heartfulness meditation. Combined with the transmission aspect available in Heartfulness, it is possible to reach deep samadhi in one or two sessions. This brings a lot of peace.
