    Tat Tvam Asi: You are That
    Everything in this world can be divided into two categories — perishable and non-perishable — that which goes through cycles of change and that which does not change at all. There is no third category! One category is that of truth and the other of falsehood. One category is of the sentient and the other of the non-sentient. So everything is sentient or non-sentient, true or false, perishable or non-perishable.

    We become whatever we connect ourselves with. If we connect ourselves with the perishable, we become perishable. What is perishable? Whatever comes to an end, whatever changes and whatever has change as its basic essence is perishable. Can we change nature? No, we cannot do that. The intrinsic nature of things cannot be changed. You, in your core, are immortal and imperishable - this cannot change. It is extremely difficult, almost impossible. The perishable cannot become imperishable. And the imperishable cannot become perishable. You cannot make something eternal, if by its very nature it is transient. And whatever is immortal can never die.
    Now the question is, where do you position yourself? In the category of the ‘imperishable’ or that of the ‘perishable’. Do you see yourself as one with the non-sentient or the sentient? If someone says, “I associate myself with the perishable, but I wish to be imperishable,” then there cannot be a greater fool than him. It is in the nature of matter, the body and the world to change.

    There are three stages and three states in which you can be, or in which you are right now. And these are: dehoham, jivoham and shivoham. Dehoham means: ‘I’ am a body, ‘I’ am this body made of skin and bones and apart from it, I am nothing. If your understanding is that ‘I’ am only a body, then you will keep this body happy by feeding it properly and will savour all the flavours that your palate can relish; see all the good things with your eyes; listen to all the lilting tunes with your ears; experience all the lust you can. Doing anything and everything which can titillate your senses is the stage of dehoham. In this state, no spiritual prospects are sought, so involution is not possible. We can say that it is the lowest rung in the spiritual ladder and millions of people live and die in this very ignorant state; never going deep within the heart, never seeking the truth of the self and always thinking of the mortal body.

    After dehoham, the second stage is jivoham. I am a jiva. What does jiva mean? Jiva means the individual self. Due to ignorance, jiva identifies itself with the body. But know this well that when the body dies, ‘you’ do not die. The one who is in dehoham bhava always says, “When the body dies, I also die.” But the fact is that even though death has happened to your body, ‘you’ do not die. The body dies, but you live on. During sleep there is a temporary death of the mind. The mind does not think or dream about anything in deep sleep. In the same way, ‘you’ experience temporary death when the body dies. The jiva regards each ‘body’ given to him as his own or as an expression of his ‘I-ness’, which is essentially foolish.

    Jivoham is the state of those people who have some degree of interest in religious matters. They know that this journey will continue even after this body dies. Your journey was there before death and will continue after death. ‘I’ was there before death and ‘I’ will remain. Everything else will be left behind. So jivoham is the second stage. When this stage comes, the jiva starts contemplating: So who sired me in the first place? Paramatma is my source, and ‘I’ am his reflection. Then he starts worshipping. It is only in the Jivabhava that the worship of God really begins.

    This third stage is shivoham. The realisation of the true self is shivoham. Only if his own or as an expression of his ‘I-ness’, which is essentially foolish.

    Jivoham is the state of those people who have some degree of interest in religious matters. They know that this journey will continue even after this body dies. Your journey was there before death and will continue after death. ‘I’ was there before death and ‘I’ will remain. Everything else will be left behind. So jivoham is the second stage. When this stage comes, the jiva starts contemplating: So who sired me in the first place? Paramatma is my source, and ‘I’ am his reflection. Then he starts worshipping. It is only in the Jivabhava that the worship of God really begins.

    This third stage is shivoham. The realisation of the true self is shivoham. Only if you see yourself as separate from the mind, body, intellect and senses will you be able to experience the bhava: ‘I’ am Shivaroopa. It cannot happen only at the intellectual level. It has to be experienced, lived. Once we cut through the sheath of ignorance with gyana, once we step out of this falsehood, then all we are left with is the pure self. And this pure self is Shiva. The word ‘Shiva’ that I am using here is not synonymous with Shankar. The word ‘Shiva’ means anandaswaroopa, vyapakswaroopa, satyaswaroopa. ‘Shiva’ means one who is benevolent and aham means ‘I’. This ‘I’ is in no way different from the pure form of Shiva. So, who are ‘you’? Shankaracharya says, ‘shivoham, shivoham’. While sleeping, waking, walking, talking and eating — this idea, this thought, should never go away, that in fact, ‘I’ am not a body. Satchidanandaswaroopa is my real essence. Except this, whatever I believe about this ‘I’ is patent falsehood. We have to liberate ourselves from this very falsehood, this very ignorance.

    Would you like to tell us a little about your enlightenment at age 16?

    Some of my early chroniclers wrote that I got enlightened at 16. I said, what! But that has got stuck to my bio. I can’t put an age to it. I was just aware of the events that happened. I was maybe 12 when I heard a satsang in my neighbourhood. And I engaged into the wonderful conversation the mahatma was giving. He was talking about the varieties of joy that happen to us. He concluded by saying that everything comes like a bubble and goes away. Nothing is permanent. What we actually need is a permanent happiness.
    That is when I started listening. Every evening the classes would happen. And one day he said, ‘Close your eyes.’ He never used the word of dhyana. I also sat. And when I opened my eyes, I was told it was a good four hours gone. Everyone had gone, and I was the only one sitting there. I was curious. Where did the four hours go? That was the question presented to the mahatma. He never answered me. He just embraced me. He said, “Keep on doing it.” That was the state of no-mind.

    So you started meditating at 12?

    We never called it meditation. The swami is teaching something and in all rapture, we listened. Then it just happens. Total sheer silence. Not even a ripple of thought. or of darkness in the mind. It is all gone. Like the sun coming out and the darkness is gone. The simplicity of the whole thing. I loved Rinzai’s answer. He was asked after enlightenment, what did you do? He said, ‘I stood up and had some tea.’ Our very being is the ultimate satchidananda. You don’t have to become it. You already are it.

    We have to remove…

    Nothing to remove

    There is so much of rubbish inside…

    It is a game of the mind. Let me put it like this. You are dreaming and you see yourself being followed by ghosts and demons. You are racing and racing, and you are hungry and tired. Then you wake up. What did you do to kill the demons? Nothing.

    But when you are dreaming, the dream is very real.

    Yes, as long as the dream is there. But the moment the dream is gone, either you wake up or somebody wakes you up. Once the sleep is gone, the whole scary mind-created world is gone. People say, what should we do, to become enlightened? Ask your mind to shut up

    Not easy!

    If you find it difficult, we will teach you yoga or something. This is what truth is. This is what untruth is. How much time does it take?

    Waking up is instantaneous, but there is a long process that happens before that.

    People love sleeping and people love dreaming. Who wants to wake up? That is the problem. Why do they crucify masters? Because they don’t want to wake up. They say, kill him. We love our dreams, desires, modifications of the mind. If truth was somewhere else, we could wait. If truth were at a distance we could walk to it, if truth were an object, we could have searched for it. But when I am the truth, how long should I wait for it? Nothing is required. You don’t have to move a finger. Whatever you are or however you are, in the very existence you are the Divine. That is it. I say you have chosen this darkness. Because to sleep you need darkness (laughs).

    Agree with the most of post above but like to caution on these statements


    Whats our definition of humility and what humility actually is may varies. Our conditioned mind box humility certain way but what we need to realize - there are NO patterns, logic, rational bhramgyan follows thats why gurbani keep its open not closed or confined.

    When bhramgyan(pure god realized knowledge) dawns on lucky one, it literally consumes the ego conditioned mind/ personality, its literally indentity shift there is NO you or me there is only bhramgyan/truth-undivided non dual real self and from the body its only truth/bhramgyan that flows but there are literally no rules, conditioned patterns , logic, rational you can throw on bhramgyan. Truth cannot be defined as soon truth is defined, we have conceptualized it- made it to idea, boxed it, truth cannot be defined, it could only be realized

    I think raising collective consciousness of our community is not overnight thing, will require massive efforts from top to bottom:

    * You need parcharikhs who put truth and integrity first then securing visa to come to west, securing a fixed income from gurdwara - supressing truth in gurbani for their own survival, say whatever many pampered listeners or gurdwara committe wants to hear.

    * Parcharikhs need not require to do parchar in gurdwara to uphold truth and integrity, stick to youtube channels be done with this red tape non sense limitations on truth, limitations on speech talking about real underlining issues in the community, have steady full time job of something else as you are not suppressing truth in gurbani just to make a living. I cannot stress this enough, parcharikh must have its own job of its socio-economic field so there are no dependency on anyone this ensure truth is not supressed or in clash course with parcharikh financial need.

    * Real sant-sipahi activist does not shy away from internal and external issues and see things from not relative but absolute point of view full eagle 360 view of the panth without any bias

    * I am not crazy fan of harbhajan singh yogi keeping his contoversy aside but respect what he has done, he looked at sikh punjabi (inter cultural tribal) community issues from outside view, tell the facts the way/truth it is, fanatics didn't obviously like it totally went after him, he didn't back off. His point was - every sikh is made into khalsa (pora satgur- khalsa mera satgur poora to be sovergein) and made decisions based on panj, there are no conflicts- get panj singhs together with truth and integrity, work out solutions don't come outside of room if there are no resolutions, fact there are hurdles from sikh community to get panj pyares to speak, sikh hall meetings and they were turned into pure symbolic gesture who singhs come as part time duty once a month for amrit sanchar shows the absolute travesty where we are heading.

    He made it very clear when you have trend of political type sikhs act humble say I cannot take ownership of actual khalsa/realize the essence (khalsa mera satgur poora), they cannot deliver they lack any truth and integrity, these people are thieves..!!

    From my experiences and observations both on a macro and micro level, I've seen a lot of faults within the community along with virtues.

    These are the faults that I find most notable:

    -the fact that most of us don't fully understand our own religion
    -we're severely intolerant of our own people yet kiss up to the Western lifestyle
    - we don't educate our own offspring about Sikhi or strengthen it, due to the fact that most Panjabis know only 2% of Sikhi and haven't educated themselves about it
    - "Orthodoxy" is either frowned upon or some a$$hole takes things too far
    -We betray our own kind and are easy sell outs
    - We try to Adapt to the western way of thought and life and try to understand our faith through those contexts and use them as our parameters in morality, ethics, and religion.
    -extreme Hypocrisy
    -Not uniting, even when we're in the west
    -Selfishness
    -preaching a concept and then contradicting it in actions and practice.

    These problems are in almost all communities, but these are really prevalent amongst us.

    Human conditioning i guess to simple to follow rigid rules than thinking out of box using logic, critical analysis, contextualization



    In this relative/transient world context, bhramgyanis may seem differ on many issues or have various opnions sometimes different from one another or even opposite but when it comes to absolute truth or real self its all ONE, they don't stress or feel give importance too much on relative issues. They realize all these different opinions is universal play of universal consciousness arising from them(ocean) as wave and wave subsiding in them(ocean).

    Bhramgyani is quite assumed, playful at these differences, even massive rifts, even world war going on seem like a playful leela as there is no other, its vahiguru himself playing this stage drama and expressing itself in many different forms, its seriously joke. Needless to say without any effort, right actions as per mysterious divine will unfolding itself (hakum) spontaneously very naturally arise from them as reaction but there is no correct pattern, particular view, point of view, fixations, conditioning, methods, logic is followed in game of divine spirituality, so normal joe blow like us cannot really box them into our conceptual mind.


    Totally agree, putting all our confidence in their words without acting is quite a stupidity they don't advocate that either as they listen to their teachers word, take the bachans which resonates with them deeply , bring them into their own practise on deep spiritual level, experience it rather than quoting them right, left and centre like parrot.

    As they say- religion is somebody experience, spirituality is one own inner experience. For eg- right now i beleive in ragmalla is gurbani but that beleif its not through my own direct expereince but by seeing evidences and also faith building in Guru maharaj which is sufficient enough. However, nothing trumps direct experience with gurbani with unconditioned mind.

    However, if tom if in my own meditative experience I have clear pristine parchand gyan through divine insight that ragmalla is gurbani.

    I clearly won't give two hoots what other parties but for party or against party has to say because personal deeper spiritual direct insight from divine is much more direct/deeply resonating than both parties for or against combined have to say as their arguments is more conceptual/intellectual than direct expereince.. I would support ragmalla not because some X, Y, Z sant said so but because its in my direct meditative experience with divine. This is just not my saying, sants follow their own direct meditative experience as well how do you think sant gyani gurbachan singh ji ragmalla antriv arths came from? It's through his meditative experience. I read it, i appreciate but do i become totally blind follower of antriv arths of ragmalla by him? NO, i bring it in my own experience, drop ragmalla tuk from gurbani in empty space in meditation see how ragmalla deep profound meanings unfold for me.

    I disagree, Sant gyanis from taksal provided much more than scholarly work, they provided deep divine knowledge-antriv arths of gurbani which can be only gained or realized in one deep meditative experience- anubhav parkash - antriv deep spiritual arths which can be related on individual meditative experience level, multi prong aspect of gurbani and arths.

    I sincerely invite you to read japji sahib teeka by taksal sant gyanis -

    It will blow your socks away (just an expression) lol. Its quite deep, it provides soul and supreme soul framework how does gurbani relate to one. You can ignore historical information if you like, go through it. It's amazing, historical scholarly citation is also provided.

    Listen to bhramgyani sant jarnail singh khalsa bhindranwale katha of jaap sahib, come on man you cannot deny gurbani arths coming from this katha is not divine, scholarly/kitabi knowledge can only get you so far there are limitations its not a flow there is always some pause in katha. However, this gurbani katha of jaap sahib is so spontaneous its like endless ocean flow of bhramgyan flowing right through/ anubhuv parkash from dhur unfolding right through- coming through him-



    No kitabi scholar who is stuck in conceptualization intellect/concept/ideas/preconceived notions/conditioned mind can match this anubhav parkash bhramgyan flow of gurbani katha..!!!!!!!!!!!!!

    Koi reacted to Lucky in Jang Jaswal Near Death Experience   
    Interesting!
    Some of you may be aware that I had experienced a NDE and was in a coma for nearly a month...but I don't go into details on an open forum.
    This guy was talking about it just after a year... but in all honesty...it takes more than a few years to put all the pieces together and understand it.

    I can usually comprehend the genuine NDE descriptions,so I will give my opinion on this one....and it is fairly genuine, except that I think he hasn't fully understood and realized yet !

    My opinion is that he did come from one of the heavenly realms before his life on earth.
    The fact, that in this life, he rejected God, the power, the divine...... is why he was susceptible to all the darker and negative energies which accounted for his numerous illnesses.

    The easiest way to think of how these energies work is to think of your 'SOUL' or God energy as that which exists as a white light.
    The more attached to God and the more God realized ---->>then the brighter and stronger the energy of this white light.

    Stronger white light in a body---->>>makes the body less susceptible to energies of dark light... this also means poot, pret, jantar mantar, curses, black magic...and all that.... are less likely to affect such body.

    Then on the other hand, if a person has hardly any white divine light in them---->>> then, their bodies are more likely to be consumed by the darker and depriving energies of ill health, disease, depression...and even suicide.

    Think of "GU-RU"...from darkness to light !


    He witnessed the Cosmic arrangement and from what he was trying to explain as really fast travel--->>>was about the real ''interstellar'' cosmic shift through light years of space in no concept of time!... 5th dimension!
    This is how "Gobind"-(Lord of the Universe)....shows you what your existence really is.
    It is tailored for each individual, which is why, No two experiences are ever exactly the same !.... OR they wouldn't be called experiences.

    He said that wherever he was, "in this valley"... he felt comfortable and at home to say!....... that's because he had come from there originally, which means he was already out of lakh chaurasi before birth! (not sure if some of you will get this...can explain later)

    Basically, the only way that he could move up from any of those heavens to sachkhand.. was by taking birth as a human again.... and from some of the heaven loks, you can actually do this by choice or will.

    Human birth-existence, means---->>> live out or bhog your karams,, which are basically the weight that hold you into a realm.

    However, his denial and complete lack of dharam (one of the four padaraths)----->>> predisposed him to the darker energies of ill-being and ill health.

    But the biggie for him was the Blessing of GRACE and KIRPA by Akaal Purakh..........so that he got another chance to complete his duties.
    This is HUKAM--->>>None of us can ever explain how or why.


    This is what happens when you get thrown back into lack chaurasi again......the jamdoots come and club you with the iron dhandey, tie you up in shackles and lead you away as Kabirji says in gurbani.
    You see, this guy was already out of the lack chaurasi from his previous janam, which is why he went straight into some lower/middle heaven lok--->>>since, he cam from there originally.

    The other point is that as Guru Tegh Bahadurji describes...."This janam and life is just like a dream, when we wake up(which is when we die),-->> we realize that none of this life was real."

    If you just imagine that when you are in a dream---->>It all seems quite real when you are in it...the people,.....the interactions,.... everything.... will seem like a reality in the dream state...... But, when you wake up-->>You realize that it wasn't real after all,.... it was just a dream, and now you are in the reality...dam-gotta getup in 30 mins and go to work
    In the same manner,.... Death is like the waking up from this matrix illusion.


    A reason why there is a difference within NDE descriptions is,.. because it depends on what and where you were from in previous janams.
    Lakh chaurasi is the complete universal cycle and then there are all the heaven loks that go from lower to higher realms but there are some levels after which you cannot ascend unless you have human birth.

    The ascension within realms can happen, but this is in the ones where jamdoots take you, where you have to realize, learn and accept all your dark wrongdoings.
    So for eg,, you may end up in the dark pit of where all the murderer jivas are.... You will enjoy their company until you realise, accept and learn your own shortcomings and sin of murdering.....in doing so, you will be able to rise above the rest, as your inner light will get brighter.... then you move on to the next lessons.....and so on.....


    The MAIN point that I can stress is that, when a soul jiva is in this Human Life form---->>> This is it's only chance to jap, meditate, get the one-pointed awareness......so that it can go straight --->>> Sachkhand.
    The Direct one way plane ticket that Guru Nanak Ji has taught us-->>Nanak naam jahaz hai


    In the Video, Mr Jaswal has got some idea about his mind-no thoughts-...etc...because he mentioned it a few times....But he hasn't quite said that he has deciphered the message that he must Jap and meditate. This is why he was given the second chance.


    As I stated above, I don't go into details about my NDE on an open forum, but I can tell you all that the main message and duty that I came back for was ...Jap, Simran ..and bhagti on His Name.
    That was the ONLY thing I knew I had to do but I had never done it previously. In fact, I was never even spiritually inclined in any way.........so it took me a couple of years to work out how to get going and do bhagti.


    The Dhan/Wealth of Naam is only carried forward from this realm of human life.

    'jo hum ko parmesur ucharhai, te subh narak kund mai parhai'
    'those who call themselves god, will burn in deepest hell'

    A deeper interpretation of this line refers to each person believing that this ego is ones self. In reality thats not true it is the Atmaa which is eternal. So calling 'me' god is guru sahib saying those who dont understanding the true self which inevitably slip into the dark hell of mis-understanding and ignorance from the truth.

    As i mentioned earlier,

    Sikhi neither supports raw patriarchy model nor raw western feminism model. Sikhi is neutral and above both, as gurmat functions/ operates flows from unconditioned knowledge-awareness/gyan which exist in both male and female but beyond both perception of body/sexes differences, soul is universal is above from both sexes.

    Speaking from sikh theological point of view, Vahiguru(god) is above both male and female but also have full of attributes immanent form-Visible Sargun form is both described as male- purakh, and female as in sri dasam granth sahib which is interpreted both as shakti(life/creative/ destructive force)- feminine and weapon-shakti.

    Coming back to post Guru's history though, in all fairness, women in our community went through a lot. Sikh women went from centers (maniya system- preaching centers by sikh woman) established* for them by our Guru's in guru's time to house wives. Thanks to tribal pendus in the panth.

    *There were manji system (centers establishment where gursikhs were chosen to do parchar) was started by Guru Amar das ji, they were 22 manjiya initially strategically placed everywhere in india to do parchar.

When one says he/she is a sikh ,then no question arises towards what jatha or taksal he /she is motivated.Once,I read a thread in this forum ,where I read some critical attacks on particular Jathas.I was deeply disappointed.I at once closed the thread,and yes there were tears in my eyes,that how could a sikh can attack other sikh's principles.From that day,I decided to never look on such threads.Yes,I 've never looked or popped in any thread beside Meditation threads.In general discussion ,sometime I just read the headings of threads.But I must say that Meditation threads are really spiritually uplifting and one gets answers of many questions he is looking for.People posting their are really gurmukh's.So I suggest you to not leave the forum.I'm not using any forum other than this one ,cause I think we shouldnt waste our time on forums.Just stay here and keep popping in meditation forum.I've read ur posts, and I must say that you're a spiritual soul.so,sikhi is not all about jathas or such kinda things.Sikhi is a straight path to meet our purkh irrespective of our worldy stature.
    Beside,here is no difference between men or women.Who can better understand about power of a woman beside a sikh?
    Hope you find your way.
    God bless!
    Gur fateh!

    It has been years since i posted anything on this site but I saw this topic and had to say something.

    There are lots of females with great avasthas out there. I saw a few whilst in India this year. Alot of them are kept in the background because of the massoganist mindset people have in the punjab.

    There was a Gursikh Bibi at Guru Ka Mahal in Amritsar doing seva at the shoe stand, you could tell from speaking to her that her jeevani was uch koti, sweet words nimarta and constant bhagti was amazing.

    Best of all if you want to see women with great spiritual avasthas can i suggest that one takes a visit to Bhai Salo Ji's Toba in Amritsar, not more then a kilometer from Darbar Sahib. The Gurdwara is prodominantly by woman, their seva and bhagti is out of this world and you can feel the spiritual vibrations from them. I spoke to a few of the Gursikhs and was so moved that other then meeting Sant Giani Mohan Singh Ji Bhindrawalae these ladies were of the highest avasthas I met on this occaision.

    Anyone gets a chance please go and see the simple Gurughar with no golak and the Toba itself.
