[QUOTE="spnadmin, post: 186348, member: 35"] Good point Bhai Tejwant ji. Here is another excellent example of why knowledge can be one's best friend. There is another kamala writing on a Hindu forum, who is also interested in sarovars and quotes Kabir out of context there too. [url="http://www.hindudharmaforums.com/showthread.php?t=9062"]Mansarovar Lake - Hindu Dharma Forums[/url] On that forum, kamala asks: "Namaskar; As per Hindu theology, Lake Manasa Sarovar is a personification of purity, and one who drinks water from the lake will go to the Abode of Lord Shiva ji after death. He is believed to be cleansed of all his sins committed over even a hundred lifetimes. -wikipedia Ohh I would LOVE to go visit the Sarovar (Lake), but when I was looking up the destinations I found out Mansarovar Lake and Kailash (Shiva ji's home) is in China :/. As a Sikh I feel I should go visit it also because our Guru jis said that it is a very fortunate destination. I have also heard that Shiva ji goes to the lake as well. गुरु सरवरु मान सरोवरु है वडभागी पुरख लहंन्हि ॥ Gur sarvar mān sarovar hai vadbẖāgī purakẖ lahaʼnniĥ. The Guru is like the Mansarovar Lake; only the very fortunate beings find Him मान सरोवरि करि इसनानु ॥ Mān sarovar kar isnān. Take your cleansing bath in the Mansarovar Lake. कबीर हीरा बनजिआ मान सरोवर तीर ॥१६१॥ Kabīr hīrā banji▫ā mān sarovar ṯīr. ||161|| The True Guru has given me courage. Kabeer, I have purchased the diamond, on the banks of the Mansarovar Lake. " The connection between Shiva and the tuk that follows is never made. Maybe I am just worried about technicalities. :mundakhalsaflag: This kamala (on the Hindu forum) says she is a Sikh. The kamala on the Hindu forum has also taken the verses of Kabir ji out of context and as a result they are misunderstood. Notice that on the Hindu forum the tuks of Kabeer ji are given in the Devanagri script. According to the biij, fortunate beings find Him at the Lake, which is the Man Sarovar. They are not finding him at the Manasa Sarovar, which is a geographical location. Another curious thing --- Kabir ji does not mention the Lake Manasa Sarovar in the last tuk. I know the English translation has taken this to be Mansarovar Lake. However, in Punjabi Kabir ji speaks of Man Sarovar, two words, which is a cleansing bath of the mind and not a place to take a dip. According to kamala on that other forum, the lake is a fortunate destination. According to Kabir ji, the Guru is like the Lake - i.e.,the Guru is the cleansing water and only the fortunate find Him. Then a forum member named “believer’ gives a very humorous reply "No need to travel that far. There are lot of lakes in Vancouver. A dip in their waters will cleanse all your sins committed in this Forum " Later the “believer” says, "Mansrover is a great Tirth place to visit and it would be a great trip fo anyone who will visit there. This place in right now under China's control, and I bet Chinese authority are allowing the yatra Jatthas." kamala replies “Wow! that is good news. " I myself don’t know why it would be good news that Lake Manasa Sarovar, or Man Sarovar for that matter, would be under China’s control.:kudifacepalm: At least China is letting pilgrims in. On other threads, kamala often begins a comment with the “ha ha” that our kamala also likes to use here at SPN. Some interesting comparisons emerging. Yes, knowledge is a very good thing. [/QUOTE]
