Nanak, such guides these to self by themselves. Quote: ESSENCE: In the salok, Guru ji recognize that inner darkness is wiped with understanding. Such understanding is greatly facilitated through blessing of pious company.
Guru Arjan Dev ji in Astpadi 23, 5th sabad describe the creativity of the creator. All based on truth, at times in upheaval if so wished, be the only one left to so create, so many powers beyond description and so blessed guided to knowing, near or far and so close if wishing to be so. Guru ji conclude that the creator so enables and makes one realize from within the higher state. | Please note all errors are mine and I stand corrected.
