If we take the meaning, which currently prevails, among our masses, it means the fluid, which if an individual drinks that individual will never die. We also hear from our elders, the stories that suggest many individuals in ancient times have drunk this ‘Amrit’. If the perceived meaning by the common person is correct then, these so called ‘amar’ individuals should be living with us now and beyond. We do not find them among ourselves, they are all dead long back. This negates the meaning of this word ‘Amrit’ which the common man accepts. This fact makes it necessary to take a fresh look on its meaning.</span></span></p><p></p><p> </p><p></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">As is the case now, in ancient days too, all the water bodies did not have water, safe enough, for human consumption. Water born diseases were taking toll of humans causing discomfort and deaths. The water that was safe for drinking and did not cause death was accordingly termed as ‘Amrit’ i.e. not dead. This word was meant to suggest the water, which if drunk will not cause death. Over period of time the stories gave it altogether different meaning which now prevail among our masses. According to my understanding, ‘Amrit’ as perceived by people never existed. This we will find in the next sentences of this Pauri. The Amrit that ‘The Sat’ gives is not fluid at all; it is different.</span></span></p><p></p><p> </p><p></p><p><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'">2. </span></span><span style="color: maroon"><span style="font-family: 'WebAkharThick'">pwieAw AMimRqu guir ik®pw kInI scw min vswieAw ] </span></span><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"><span style="font-size: 12px">paa-i-aa amri<u>t</u> gur kirpaa keenee sachaa man vasaa-i-aa.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"><span style="font-size: 12px"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"><span style="font-size: 12px"></span></span></p><p></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">Obtained ‘Amrit’ by the Grace of the Guru (‘The Sat’), which enshrines the ‘True One’ in the mind.</span></span></p><p></p><p> </p><p></p><p><strong><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><u>My understanding</u>:</span></span></strong></p><p></p><p> </p><p></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">Guru Sahib instructs me to qualify for the grace of ‘The Sat’. ‘The Sat’ alone can cleanse all the filth that I have collected in my life, which has polluted my mind. With the blessing of ‘The Sat’ the ‘True One’ will then reside in my mind and illuminate it. We all know there is only one ‘True One’ i.e. ‘The Sat’. We also know ‘The Sat’ is independent of time and is ‘Ajuni’ i.e. not born. Naturally the ‘The Sat’ can never cease to exist – only those who are born die. ‘The Sat’ never dies and so it is ‘Amrit’. Consequently, when ‘The Sat’ resides in one’s mind, that individual has received the ‘Amrit’. This way we understand that ‘The Sat’ is ‘Amrit’. This is the meaning of Amrit that Sikhi teaches me. For me ‘Amrit’ is not some sort of fluid that has to be drunk as the ancient literature of our land sometimes suggests. It is the purity of mind that qualifies the individual to be graced by ‘The Sat’. ‘Wah-e-Guru’.</span></span></p><p></p><p> </p><p></p><p><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'">3. </span></span><span style="color: maroon"><span style="font-family: 'WebAkharThick'">jIA jMq siB quDu aupwey ieik vyiK prsix AwieAw ] </span></span><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"><span style="font-size: 12px">jee-a jan<u>t</u> sa<u>bh</u> <u>t</u>u<u>Dh</u> upaa-ay ik vay<u>kh</u> parsa<u>n</u> aa-i-aa.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"><span style="font-size: 12px"></span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"><span style="font-size: 12px"></span></span></p><p></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">All living entities are your creation; only few see and seek your blessing.</span></span></p><p></p><p> </p><p></p><p><strong><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><u>My understanding</u>:</span></span></strong></p><p></p><p> </p><p></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">Guru Sahib explains to me the veil that the worldly living can create over my mind.

These are greed and Ahamkara. With the blessings from ‘The Sat’ when wisdom dawns on the individual, these vices start loosing grip on her or him – the mind starts becoming pure. Pure mind is the place where “The Sat’ resides. This way Guru Sahib tells me, only if I try on my own to get over my greed and Ahamkara, then only the blessing from ‘The Sat’ will come.

When one tries to purify ones mind, in effect, she or he is seeking the blessings of ‘The Sat’ to help her or him to proceed further on this path.[/size][/font] [size=3][font=Times New Roman] [/font][/size] [size=3][font=Times New Roman]5.
