[QUOTE="Mai Harinder Kaur, post: 108464, member: 3558"] [b]Re: Living The ShabadGuru: My Thoughts And Feelings[/b] On the evening of 25 April 2006, I went to bed with full, lovely kes, my head hair shining and healthy, a bit below my waist. *(Being a woman, I lacked all but a tiny bit of facial adornment.) When I came out of a coma about a week later, my hair were broken off, mostly just past my shoulders; what was left was dull and lifeless. I had had a massive stroke and had died. To revive me, the paramedics at home and later the doctors at the hospital had repeatedly used a defibrillator to revive my lifeless body. Although, my hair was not shorn, I felt naked - and a little guilty - without it I am told that hairs take three years to regain their natural state after being damaged, however the damage occurs. Three years have now passed and, while it's still quite short (mid-back), I am grateful to feel that I have my kesh back. During this time, I have often listened to and meditated on this part of this shabad: (SGGS, Ang 941: ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਰੋਮਿ ਰੋਮਿ ਹਰਿ ਧਿਆਵੈ ॥ guramukh rom rom har dhhiaavai || The Gurmukh meditates on the Lord with every hair of his body. The whole Shabad can be heard at: [url="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=rnWcEOYR3lE"]YouTube - The Gurmukh meditates on God with every hair of his body.[/url] preceded by a short talk on the importance of kes (in Punjabi). The words to the whole Shabad follow, although what is left of my brain hangs on to that one line above: ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਸਾਚੇ ਕਾ ਭਉ ਪਾਵੈ ॥ guramukh saachae kaa bho paavai || The Gurmukh lives in the Fear of God, the True Lord.
