[QUOTE="sunsingh, post: 81483, member: 6546"] [b]Re: Truth about Canadian Singh Sabha and Singh Sabha International[/b] So are you saying that Sant Jarnail Singh is not a sant? There are numerous shabads stating that sants exist. They need to be looked at in context to be understood. If sants don't exist, than what do those people who successfully follow Gurmat Marg become? Sant avastha is the result of the Guru's teachings. We don't just remain the same after following the Guru's teachings everyday for a long period of time. For more proof that sants do exist, see this thread - If you feel that they don't exist, feel free to disprove the vichaar on this thread: [URL]http://www.sikhism.us/gurmat-vichaar/21970-what-is-role-sants-khalsa-panth.html[/URL] We see the power of a Sikh who has correctly followed Gurmat Marg and reached the sant stage shown by Bhagat Naam Dev ji (panna 1252): [FONT=GurbaniWebThick][SIZE=4]dws AinMn myro inj rUp ] [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] dh[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]aa[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]s an[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]i[/B][/COLOR][/FONT](n)n m[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ae[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]r[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]o[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] n[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]i[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]j r[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]oo[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]p || [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][I]Says God: my slave is devoted only to me; he is in my very image.[/I] [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=GurbaniWebThick][SIZE=4]drsn inmK qwp qReI mocn prsq mukiq krq igRh kUp ]1] rhwau ] [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] dharasan n[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]i[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]makh th[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]aa[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]p thr[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ee[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] m[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]o[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]chan parasath m[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]u[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]kath karath gr[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]i[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]h k[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]oo[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]p ||1|| reh[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]aa[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]o || [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][I]The sight of him, even for an instant, cures the three fevers; his touch brings liberation from the deep dark pit of household affairs. ||1||Pause||[/I] [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=GurbaniWebThick][SIZE=4]myrI bWDI Bgqu CfwvY bWDY Bgqu n CUtY moih ] [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] m[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ae[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]r[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ee[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] b[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]aa(n)[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]dhh[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ee[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] bhagath shhadd[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]aa[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]v[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ai[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] b[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]aa(n)[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]dhh[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ai[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] bhagath n shh[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]oo[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]tt[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ai[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] m[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]o[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]h[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]i[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] || [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][I]The devotee can release anyone from my bondage, but I cannot release anyone from his.[/I] [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=GurbaniWebThick][SIZE=4]eyk smY mo kau gih bWDY qau Puin mo pY jbwbu n hoie ]1] [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] e[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ae[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]k sam[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ai[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] m[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]o[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] ko geh[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]i[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] b[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]aa(n)[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]dhh[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ai[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] tho f[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]u[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]n m[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]o[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] p[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ai[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] jab[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]aa[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]b n h[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]o[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]e ||1|| [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][I]If, at any time, he grabs and binds me, even then, I cannot protest. ||1||[/I] [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=GurbaniWebThick][SIZE=4]mY gun bMD sgl kI jIvin myrI jIvin myry dws ] [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2] m[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ai[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] g[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]u[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]n ba(n)dhh sagal k[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ee[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] j[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ee[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]van m[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ae[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]r[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ee[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] j[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ee[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]van m[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ae[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]r[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]ae[/B][/COLOR][/FONT] dh[FONT=Verdana][COLOR=#080088][B]aa[/B][/COLOR][/FONT]s || [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=2][I]I am bound by virtue; I am the Life of all.
