No-one has been able to find you by counting. Those who do those are full of greed and pride. There is no special time to join yourself with the True Guru’s teachings, think and incorporate this into our life. Those who live as Gurmukhs are the true Bhagats. Those who have incorporated Naam (truthful living) into their lives understand its true value. This life is given to each of us by you and Waheguru is present in every person. Only Waheguru is ever present. Every other life comes and goes.</span></p><p> </p><p> <span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">LESSON: Don’t waste time on rituals and compartmentalising your life but focus on being the best you can and being connected to Akaal Purakh always.</span></p><p> </p><p> <span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">Ang 36</span></p><p> ਸ੍ਰੀਰਾਗੁ ਮਹਲਾ ੩ ॥[/FONT]</p><p> ਬਿਨੁ ਗੁਰ ਰੋਗੁ ਨ ਤੁਟਈ ਹਉਮੈ ਪੀੜ ਨ ਜਾਇ ॥[/FONT]ਗੁਰ ਪਰਸਾਦੀ ਮਨਿ ਵਸੈ ਨਾਮੇ ਰਹੈ ਸਮਾਇ ॥[/FONT]</p><p> ਗੁਰ ਸਬਦੀ ਹਰਿ ਪਾਈਐ ਬਿਨੁ ਸਬਦੈ ਭਰਮਿ ਭੁਲਾਇ ॥੧॥[/FONT]ਮਨ ਰੇ ਨਿਜ ਘਰਿ ਵਾਸਾ ਹੋਇ ॥[/FONT]</p><p> ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮੁ ਸਾਲਾਹਿ ਤੂ ਫਿਰਿ ਆਵਣ ਜਾਣੁ ਨ ਹੋਇ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥[/FONT]ਹਰਿ ਇਕੋ ਦਾਤਾ ਵਰਤਦਾ ਦੂਜਾ ਅਵਰੁ ਨ ਕੋਇ ॥[/FONT]</p><p> ਸਬਦਿ ਸਾਲਾਹੀ ਮਨਿ ਵਸੈ ਸਹਜੇ ਹੀ ਸੁਖੁ ਹੋਇ ॥[/FONT]ਸਭ ਨਦਰੀ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਵੇਖਦਾ ਜੈ ਭਾਵੈ ਤੈ ਦੇਇ ॥੨॥[/FONT]</p><p> ਹਉਮੈ ਸਭਾ ਗਣਤ ਹੈ ਗਣਤੈ ਨਉ ਸੁਖੁ ਨਾਹਿ ॥[/FONT]ਬਿਖੁ ਕੀ ਕਾਰ ਕਮਾਵਣੀ ਬਿਖੁ ਹੀ ਮਾਹਿ ਸਮਾਹਿ ॥[/FONT]</p><p> ਬਿਨੁ ਨਾਵੈ ਠਉਰੁ ਨ ਪਾਇਨੀ ਜਮਪੁਰਿ ਦੂਖ ਸਹਾਹਿ ॥੩॥[/FONT]ਜੀਉ ਪਿੰਡੁ ਸਭੁ ਤਿਸ ਦਾ ਤਿਸੈ ਦਾ ਆਧਾਰੁ ॥[/FONT]</p><p> ਗੁਰ ਪਰਸਾਦੀ ਬੁਝੀਐ ਤਾ ਪਾਏ ਮੋਖ ਦੁਆਰੁ ॥[/FONT]ਨਾਨਕ ਨਾਮੁ ਸਲਾਹਿ ਤੂੰ ਅੰਤੁ ਨ ਪਾਰਾਵਾਰੁ ॥੪॥੨੪॥੫੭॥[/FONT]</p><p> </p><p> <span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">Without Satguru the struggle of constantly being spiritually reborn can’t be escaped and the pain of the ego doesn’t go away. With Satguru’s blessing whoever is able to merge with Waheguru and incorporate truthful living in their life remins connected with the Naam. By following Gurbani, the connection can be made. Without Gurbani, a person wanders in doubt and life is wasted. I hope my mind always remains connected to Waheguru. By living as a Gurmukh, spiritual rebirth will be escaped. Rahao. The only one capable of giving life and blessings is the one Akaal Purakh. No-one else can compare (especially not human beings). If I always follow the lessons of Gurbani, it will remain with me always and bring peace to my life. Everyone is capable of the receiving this blessing. Where there is ego, there is only counting. No peace came from counting. Living under the influence of ego, the mind (and life) is filled with poison. With living according to Gurbani, peace of mind cannot be attained and the pain of dying is felt. Once we are able to understand that our body, mind and soul belong to Waheguru alone, then we understand that Akaal Purakh is also our support. When we realise the Satguru’s grace, then we can walk along the path of freedom from the evils within. Nanak says, forever live as per Gurbani (Naam) as per the Satguru who’s goodness cannot be counted and limits cannot be envisaged.</span></p><p> </p><p> <span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">LESSON: Forever remain immersed in Gurbani and follow the instructions provided to escape from the miserable life guided by ego. Ego leads to pain and false pride in useless rituals such as counting paaths.</span></p><p> </p><p> <span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">Ang 510</span></p><p> ਪਉੜੀ ॥[/FONT]</p><p> ਪ੍ਰਭਿ ਸੰਸਾਰੁ ਉਪਾਇ ਕੈ ਵਸਿ ਆਪਣੈ ਕੀਤਾ ॥[/FONT]ਗਣਤੈ ਪ੍ਰਭੂ ਨ ਪਾਈਐ ਦੂਜੈ ਭਰਮੀਤਾ ॥[/FONT]</p><p> ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਮਿਲਿਐ ਜੀਵਤੁ ਮਰੈ ਬੁਝਿ ਸਚਿ ਸਮੀਤਾ ॥[/FONT]</p><p> ਸਬਦੇ ਹਉਮੈ ਖੋਈਐ ਹਰਿ ਮੇਲਿ ਮਿਲੀਤਾ ॥[/FONT]ਸਭ ਕਿਛੁ ਜਾਣੈ ਕਰੇ ਆਪਿ ਆਪੇ ਵਿਗਸੀਤਾ ॥੪॥[/FONT]</p><p> </p><p> <span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">Waheguru created everything and is present within creation. Practices controlled by maya (such as counting of prayers) don’t help you connect but leave you in living aimlessly in doubt. By understanding the truth about the difference between maya and life, connection with Waheguru can take place. With Waheguru’s help, pride can be killed to allow the connection to take place. Then you understand that Waheguru knows everything and looks after all creation.</span></p><p> </p><p> <span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">LESSON: Learn to recognise the truth so you can live a truthful life with peace and without doubt.</span></p><p> </p><p> <span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">Ang 314</span></p><p> ਪਉੜੀ ॥[/FONT]</p><p> ਤੂ ਕਰਤਾ ਸਭੁ ਕਿਛੁ ਜਾਣਦਾ ਜੋ ਜੀਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਵਰਤੈ ॥[/FONT]ਤੂ ਕਰਤਾ ਆਪਿ ਅਗਣਤੁ ਹੈ ਸਭੁ ਜਗੁ ਵਿਚਿ ਗਣਤੈ ॥[/FONT]</p><p> ਸਭੁ ਕੀਤਾ ਤੇਰਾ ਵਰਤਦਾ ਸਭ ਤੇਰੀ ਬਣਤੈ ॥[/FONT]ਤੂ ਘਟਿ ਘਟਿ ਇਕੁ ਵਰਤਦਾ ਸਚੁ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਚਲਤੈ ॥[/FONT]</p><p> ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਨੋ ਮਿਲੇ ਸੁ ਹਰਿ ਮਿਲੇ ਨਾਹੀ ਕਿਸੈ ਪਰਤੈ ॥੨੪॥[/FONT]</p><p> </p><p> <span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">The creator knows all and resides within the creation. Creation is stuck in the worries of counting creation. O Parmeshwar you are aloof from such things because you are the one who created all. O Hari, you are within all. No-one has been able to discover you alone. The only people who realise this connection are the ones looking for it. They don’t look for Parmatma within the influences of maya.</span></p><p> <!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:WordDocument> <w:View>Normal</w:View> <w:Zoom>0</w:Zoom> <w:TrackMoves/> <w:TrackFormatting/>

[QUOTE="findingmyway, post: 180773, member: 12855"] I thought it would be a good idea to explore the shabads mentioned at the beginning in more detail so here they are in full with my understanding inspired by Prof Sahib Singh's Darpan. Ang 140 ਪਉੜੀ ॥[/FONT] ਮਾਹਾ ਰੁਤੀ ਸਭ ਤੂੰ ਘੜੀ ਮੂਰਤ ਵੀਚਾਰਾ ॥[/FONT]ਤੂੰ ਗਣਤੈ ਕਿਨੈ ਨ ਪਾਇਓ ਸਚੇ ਅਲਖ ਅਪਾਰਾ ॥[/FONT] ਪੜਿਆ ਮੂਰਖੁ ਆਖੀਐ ਜਿਸੁ ਲਬੁ ਲੋਭੁ ਅਹੰਕਾਰਾ ॥[/FONT]ਨਾਉ ਪੜੀਐ ਨਾਉ ਬੁਝੀਐ ਗੁਰਮਤੀ ਵੀਚਾਰਾ ॥[/FONT] ਗੁਰਮਤੀ ਨਾਮੁ ਧਨੁ ਖਟਿਆ ਭਗਤੀ ਭਰੇ ਭੰਡਾਰਾ ॥[/FONT]ਨਿਰਮਲੁ ਨਾਮੁ ਮੰਨਿਆ ਦਰਿ ਸਚੈ ਸਚਿਆਰਾ ॥[/FONT] ਜਿਸ ਦਾ ਜੀਉ ਪਰਾਣੁ ਹੈ ਅੰਤਰਿ ਜੋਤਿ ਅਪਾਰਾ ॥[/FONT]ਸਚਾ ਸਾਹੁ ਇਕੁ ਤੂੰ ਹੋਰੁ ਜਗਤੁ ਵਣਜਾਰਾ ॥੬॥[/FONT] [FONT=Raavi]Akaal Purakh can be remembered anyday, any time, any hour so there is no special hour for remembrance. No-one has been able to find you by counting. Those who do those are full of greed and pride. There is no special time to join yourself with the True Guru’s teachings, think and incorporate this into our life. Those who live as Gurmukhs are the true Bhagats. Those who have incorporated Naam (truthful living) into their lives understand its true value. This life is given to each of us by you and Waheguru is present in every person. Only Waheguru is ever present. Every other life comes and goes.[/FONT] [FONT=Raavi]LESSON: Don’t waste time on rituals and compartmentalising your life but focus on being the best you can and being connected to Akaal Purakh always.[/FONT] [FONT=Raavi]Ang 36[/FONT] ਸ੍ਰੀਰਾਗੁ ਮਹਲਾ ੩ ॥[/FONT] ਬਿਨੁ ਗੁਰ ਰੋਗੁ ਨ ਤੁਟਈ ਹਉਮੈ ਪੀੜ ਨ ਜਾਇ ॥[/FONT]ਗੁਰ ਪਰਸਾਦੀ ਮਨਿ ਵਸੈ ਨਾਮੇ ਰਹੈ ਸਮਾਇ ॥[/FONT] ਗੁਰ ਸਬਦੀ ਹਰਿ ਪਾਈਐ ਬਿਨੁ ਸਬਦੈ ਭਰਮਿ ਭੁਲਾਇ ॥੧॥[/FONT]ਮਨ ਰੇ ਨਿਜ ਘਰਿ ਵਾਸਾ ਹੋਇ ॥[/FONT] ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮੁ ਸਾਲਾਹਿ ਤੂ ਫਿਰਿ ਆਵਣ ਜਾਣੁ ਨ ਹੋਇ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥[/FONT]ਹਰਿ ਇਕੋ ਦਾਤਾ ਵਰਤਦਾ ਦੂਜਾ ਅਵਰੁ ਨ ਕੋਇ ॥[/FONT] ਸਬਦਿ ਸਾਲਾਹੀ ਮਨਿ ਵਸੈ ਸਹਜੇ ਹੀ ਸੁਖੁ ਹੋਇ ॥[/FONT]ਸਭ ਨਦਰੀ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਵੇਖਦਾ ਜੈ ਭਾਵੈ ਤੈ ਦੇਇ ॥੨॥[/FONT] ਹਉਮੈ ਸਭਾ ਗਣਤ ਹੈ ਗਣਤੈ ਨਉ ਸੁਖੁ ਨਾਹਿ ॥[/FONT]ਬਿਖੁ ਕੀ ਕਾਰ ਕਮਾਵਣੀ ਬਿਖੁ ਹੀ ਮਾਹਿ ਸਮਾਹਿ ॥[/FONT] ਬਿਨੁ ਨਾਵੈ ਠਉਰੁ ਨ ਪਾਇਨੀ ਜਮਪੁਰਿ ਦੂਖ ਸਹਾਹਿ ॥੩॥[/FONT]ਜੀਉ ਪਿੰਡੁ ਸਭੁ ਤਿਸ ਦਾ ਤਿਸੈ ਦਾ ਆਧਾਰੁ ॥[/FONT] ਗੁਰ ਪਰਸਾਦੀ ਬੁਝੀਐ ਤਾ ਪਾਏ ਮੋਖ ਦੁਆਰੁ ॥[/FONT]ਨਾਨਕ ਨਾਮੁ ਸਲਾਹਿ ਤੂੰ ਅੰਤੁ ਨ ਪਾਰਾਵਾਰੁ ॥੪॥੨੪॥੫੭॥[/FONT] [FONT=Raavi]Without Satguru the struggle of constantly being spiritually reborn can’t be escaped and the pain of the ego doesn’t go away. With Satguru’s blessing whoever is able to merge with Waheguru and incorporate truthful living in their life remins connected with the Naam. By following Gurbani, the connection can be made. Without Gurbani, a person wanders in doubt and life is wasted. I hope my mind always remains connected to Waheguru. By living as a Gurmukh, spiritual rebirth will be escaped. Rahao. The only one capable of giving life and blessings is the one Akaal Purakh. No-one else can compare (especially not human beings). If I always follow the lessons of Gurbani, it will remain with me always and bring peace to my life. Everyone is capable of the receiving this blessing. Where there is ego, there is only counting. No peace came from counting. Living under the influence of ego, the mind (and life) is filled with poison. With living according to Gurbani, peace of mind cannot be attained and the pain of dying is felt. Once we are able to understand that our body, mind and soul belong to Waheguru alone, then we understand that Akaal Purakh is also our support. When we realise the Satguru’s grace, then we can walk along the path of freedom from the evils within. Nanak says, forever live as per Gurbani (Naam) as per the Satguru who’s goodness cannot be counted and limits cannot be envisaged.[/FONT] [FONT=Raavi]LESSON: Forever remain immersed in Gurbani and follow the instructions provided to escape from the miserable life guided by ego. Ego leads to pain and false pride in useless rituals such as counting paaths.[/FONT] [FONT=Raavi]Ang 510[/FONT] ਪਉੜੀ ॥[/FONT] ਪ੍ਰਭਿ ਸੰਸਾਰੁ ਉਪਾਇ ਕੈ ਵਸਿ ਆਪਣੈ ਕੀਤਾ ॥[/FONT]ਗਣਤੈ ਪ੍ਰਭੂ ਨ ਪਾਈਐ ਦੂਜੈ ਭਰਮੀਤਾ ॥[/FONT] ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਮਿਲਿਐ ਜੀਵਤੁ ਮਰੈ ਬੁਝਿ ਸਚਿ ਸਮੀਤਾ ॥[/FONT] ਸਬਦੇ ਹਉਮੈ ਖੋਈਐ ਹਰਿ ਮੇਲਿ ਮਿਲੀਤਾ ॥[/FONT]ਸਭ ਕਿਛੁ ਜਾਣੈ ਕਰੇ ਆਪਿ ਆਪੇ ਵਿਗਸੀਤਾ ॥੪॥[/FONT] [FONT=Raavi]Waheguru created everything and is present within creation. Practices controlled by maya (such as counting of prayers) don’t help you connect but leave you in living aimlessly in doubt. By understanding the truth about the difference between maya and life, connection with Waheguru can take place. With Waheguru’s help, pride can be killed to allow the connection to take place. Then you understand that Waheguru knows everything and looks after all creation.[/FONT] [FONT=Raavi]LESSON: Learn to recognise the truth so you can live a truthful life with peace and without doubt.[/FONT] [FONT=Raavi]Ang 314[/FONT] ਪਉੜੀ ॥[/FONT] ਤੂ ਕਰਤਾ ਸਭੁ ਕਿਛੁ ਜਾਣਦਾ ਜੋ ਜੀਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਵਰਤੈ ॥[/FONT]ਤੂ ਕਰਤਾ ਆਪਿ ਅਗਣਤੁ ਹੈ ਸਭੁ ਜਗੁ ਵਿਚਿ ਗਣਤੈ ॥[/FONT] ਸਭੁ ਕੀਤਾ ਤੇਰਾ ਵਰਤਦਾ ਸਭ ਤੇਰੀ ਬਣਤੈ ॥[/FONT]ਤੂ ਘਟਿ ਘਟਿ ਇਕੁ ਵਰਤਦਾ ਸਚੁ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਚਲਤੈ ॥[/FONT] ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਨੋ ਮਿਲੇ ਸੁ ਹਰਿ ਮਿਲੇ ਨਾਹੀ ਕਿਸੈ ਪਰਤੈ ॥੨੪॥[/FONT] [FONT=Raavi]The creator knows all and resides within the creation. Creation is stuck in the worries of counting creation. O Parmeshwar you are aloof from such things because you are the one who created all. O Hari, you are within all. No-one has been able to discover you alone. The only people who realise this connection are the ones looking for it. They don’t look for Parmatma within the influences of maya.[/FONT] <!--[if gte mso 9]><xml> <w:WordDocument> <w:View>Normal</w:View> <w:Zoom>0</w:Zoom> <w:TrackMoves/> <w:TrackFormatting/>
