There Is Nothing But GOD

[AmbarDhara]

There is nothing but God

The Eternal unchanging reality, very hard to conceive, but this is the eternal truth. God is every thing. He is the doer, The cause of the causes, All-Pervading Within and without in seen and unseen, The Infinite One.
Guru Ji describes this 'oneness' in Gurbani many many times.

In the following Shabad, Bhagat Naam Dev Jee describes this 'Oneness' very beautifully. This shabad is so sweet.

Nanak Bani Nirankaar Paarbrahm Parmesar
Waho Waho Bani Nirankaar Hai Tis Jevad Avar Na Koi

(Maybe a forum member will check the Gurmukhi fonts because I used a source that is different from usual, and I don't trust my own eye on this.. Thank you.)
