tarkhansingh Posted July 14, 2007 Report Share Posted July 14, 2007 For a long time I have always had this pull towards Akaal Ustat. Ive been listening to it for some time now, and i was reading up on it on the infamous sarbloh.info page and i came across some interesting questions that comes up in Akal Ustat. I always come across this when Im going through the translation, but I have never really given it much thought. So I open up the floor to all the scholars here to give their 2 cents on each question here. ps. would love to hear from tSingh, shaheediyan, chatanga, N30 and others. Questions- (2) What is the form of 'Atma' (True self)? (3) What is the thought behind creation? (4) What is 'Dharma'? (5) What is 'Karma'? (6) What is creation? (7) What is life? (8) What is Death? (9) What is heaven? (10) What is hell? (11) What is cleverness? (12) What is stupidity? (13) What is 'Tark' (Reasoning)? (14) What is not 'Tark'? (15) What is slander? (16) What is praise? (17) What is Sin? (18) What is 'Dharma'? Some of the questions are asked twice by the Guru. Here, the Guru desires a different answer to previous answer. Each question and its answers are inter-linked to each other to produce a whole picture of Sat Guru, meaning the ideology and philosophy of Sat Guru which should appear at the end of answering all the questions. (19) What is Yoga? (20) What is enjoyment of worldly pleasures? (21) What is action? (22) What is inaction? (23) What is hard work ? (24) What is controlling the senses? (25) Who is a warrior? (26) Who is giver of charity? (27) What is 'Tantra'? (28) What is 'Mantra'? (29) Who is poor? (30) Who is a King? (31) What is happiness? (32) What is Sadness? (33) Who is ill? (35) Who is affectionate? (36) What is essence of affection? (37) Who is satiated? (38) Who is healthy? (39) What is thought behind creation? (40) What is creation? (41) Who is defiled? (42) What is creation? (43) Where is action superstition? (45) Where is superstition destroyed? (46) Where is happiness of consciousness? (47) Where is knowledge of that which we can not grasp with our minds? (48) What is Naam? (50) What is self control? (51) What is knowledge and ignorance? (52) Who is ill? (53) Who is a worrier? (54) Where is Dharma lost? (55) Who is a warrior? (56) Who is beautiful? (57) What is secret of being at one with Sat Guru? (58) Who is the charitable one? (59) Who is wise? (60) What is knowledge? (61) What is ignorance? http://www.sarbloh.info/htmls/epilogue_akalustat.html 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

chatanga Posted July 18, 2007 Report Share Posted July 18, 2007 the answer to 61 is : why duz man never think that death is around the corner. People live in the ignorance that death is always far away. That they still have 10/20 years to live. A sakhi in Mahabharata uses this question and many more. Once the 5 pandavs are in the forets and they look for water. one by one they go to a pond and are questioned by an invisible entity on the mystery of life. 4 of the 5 cannot answer these questions, and die, and the last to go is Yudhistra. he answers the questiosn correclty, and some f the questions he was asked are from the list above. however he will only accept the water if his brothers are brought back to life. Death can come at any time. This mystery became so much clearer to me when my friend Harvinder Singh passed away at the the Lake district last year. only seconds before no would have thought that death was present. chatanga 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
