Your Bottomline remarks are superb and excellent.
I congratulate you for such wonderful interpretation.
I am convinced you can do wonders in prestation when you get to realise the contentof any SABAD. This is manifested in your style of analysis.

Ambarsaria ji,
Wonderful! Thank you. What I'm getting from this is soul is part of our life and also part of Waheguru? Have I understood right?

I've noticed on several of your posts that I cannot read half the Gurmukhi fonts. Which website are they from? Thanks.

Lets explore more shabads to gain a better understanding of the soul. Any suggestions

The font is Raavi. I can read it OK, and never had a problem. Which is a mystery because the font is not on the SPN list of supported fonts.

Why not try to install that font and see if you can read it too. Thanks for mentioning this as I wonder if there are other members who cannot read the font and are seeing an ASCII code instead.

findingmyway ji thanks for your feedback.

Some finer points,

• Quote:

  What I'm getting from this is soul is part of our life

  • Yes
    • But it is related to its richness and completeness based on the understanding of Waheguru by each of us
      • No one has less soul or more soul
        • it is the level of understanding
        • and their actions reflective of the understanding which determine,
        • whether,
          • they are wasting away their soul or Creator's gift
          • or putting it to good use to become "Gurmukh"
          • or putting it to be bad use/ignoring it/stopping its nourishment/growth/etc., to become "Manmukh"
    • Focus is,
      • Understanding and not just the word "Waheguru"

• Quote:

  and also part of Waheguru?

  • Yes
    • Greater than the word is the "understanding of the word"

Thus two people or more sharing understanding are effecting each others souls. One may be gone but the effect will still be there in others and vice versa through the ages in the past and into the future.

So people say "Souls don't die", I suppose this makes sense to me now at least as to how!" Unless there are some genetic breakthroughs I do believe however that at birth we start with a brand new slate or a fresh soul with no limitations and everyone equal to any other. If science proves other wise I will have no difficulty accepting as we already know how rest of the bodily genetic is linked to the past.

Sat Sri Akal.

PS: Yes this font thingy drives me nuts. If I cut and paste from Professor Sahib Singh ji's Darpan, the Gurbani accents get mixed up, and I think it is something to do with auto font recognition in word, etc. I have not found a way to fix it. Very frustrating at times as I don't want to post wrong words of Gurbani even though they are correct in one document but when posted become bad!

Check out the Sidh Gosht thread I added something of a draft.

I think the work-around is to use the Professor Sahib Singh teeka at http://www.srigranth.org.

Find the shabad and then look up to the right hand corner. You will see where you can select among other things the "teeka" of choice, either Professor Sahib Singh, or the Faridkhot teeka. Make your selection and the commentary will appear below the translation. Copy that text, and paste it. You avoid the problems that occur with other copies of the GGD on the web.

Example: http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gur...=1&t=1&p=0&k=1

See if that is better.

spnadmin ji I work off-line for most posts and usually have separate PDFs trying to compare and then understand. Parts of the Darpan work fine it is the Gurbani lines which mix up in the Darpan .pdf from GurbaniCD.

Thanks,

Sat Sri Akal.

You can also get the gurbani lines using srigranth. Check the link. The shabad is always just above the commentary. Both will always be in the AmmoLipi font.
