Bhagat and Bhagti

simpy · #1 (**permalink**) 22-Dec-2007, 19:27 PM

There are many ways we do bhagti,

Bhagat appears in front of Guru/Waheguru in many forms:
sometimes we consider ourselves to be His children (Him being the father)
sometimes we consider ourselves to be His friend (Him being our friend)
sometimes we consider ourselves to be His sibling (Him being our sibling)

sometimes we consider ourselves to be His bride (Him being the Husband)
sometimes we consider ourselves to be His sevak ( Him being our Master)
sometimes we consider ourselves to be His student (Him being the Teacher)
sometimes we consider ourselves to be the recievers ( Him being the Provider)
sometimes we consider ourselves to be Papi ( Him being the Bakshan Haar)
sometimes we consider ourselves to be Kookar(dog) at His Door( Him being the Owner of the House)
