I turned my breath inwards, and pierced through the six chakras of the body, and my awareness was centered on the Primal Void of the Absolute Lord.

Devotee Kabir - view Shabad/Paurhi/Salok

Please give your views.

I do not have that kind of deep knowledge. I checked on Gurugranthdarpan.com. Doctor Sahib Singh ji says that the actual meaning conveyed is that when totally tuned to Waheguru experience of Yogi's chakras is experienced. You can check on it too.

Osho was brilliant, grasped what he read but totally bankrupt when it comes to originality.
He was just a master of words. Poor guy talks about Guru ji's mind missing "birth place" during last hour, you can understand how much he had understanding of Guru Nanak. Zen meditation is not different than Yogis Guru talked about.
I think mkn can learn more from Dr sahib Singh than these guys.

But Balbir Singh is learning tremendously fast from Zen, I know it eventhough he will deny it.

Pk70 Ji, how do you know if the glass is half full or half empty ?
Perception viewpoint. Nature is neither good nor bad, it's neutral and detached. Be like the water which moulds itself - takes the shape of its container. Then you will be the blessed person.

Kabeer wrote, ....har jan aisa chahiye, jio paani sarbang.

These are stages of unfoldment.

Pk70 Ji, how do you know if the glass is half full or half empty ?
namjap Ji
When filling in action occurs, glass filling is clear and can be said" glass is half full." When filling act is stopped the visible emptiness is noticed and it can be said" it is half empty".

Perception viewpoint. Nature is neither good nor bad, it's neutral and detached. Be like the water which moulds itself - takes the shape of its container. Then you will be the blessed person.
When one gets in quagmire, there are few chances to get out.

Kabeer wrote, ....har jan aisa chahiye, jio paani sarbang."
Kabir ji is asking us to realize His creation and stay in there, dont see Him out of His creation. Harjan sees nothing around but HIM

In ancient times there were great Taoist Sages.
Their way of living was so deep, so subtle, it cannot be directly explained.
Instead, here is how they looked:
Cautious, as if crossing the ford of a stream in Winter
Alert, as if surrounded by danger
Polite, as if they were always a guest
Yielding, like ice that is on the verge of melting
Sincere, like an uncut block of wood
Receptive, like a valley
Opaque, like muddy water
(Q
Who can wait quietly for muddy water to slowly settle and become clear?
Who can continue to calmly live, and so experience nature's constant, slow growth?
(A
People who follow the Tao do not desire excess to be full.
People who do not desire excess have unseen energy that constantly invigorates.

Sikhism is a religion which will compel one to study every philosophy of the world without which one cannot truly understand the teachings of SGGS.

I am finding this to be true!!!!! Before, in my previous life, I was never that interested in religion. I just enjoyed people I came into contact with -- Muslims, Hindus, animists, Mormons. They were in my life -- maybe God sent them maybe God wasn't that much of a micromanager -- not important -- they were all of them simply good company with fascinating stories to tell. Many of them are still in my life.

Then along comes Sikhi, and these connections take on so much greater importantce And I have to stay up sometimes until 2 in the morning to read about this in Sufism or that in Buddhism just to feel better grounded in various things. To understand how Sikhi is unique but also to understand what Sikhi shares. To understand other people and what makes them tick.
