[QUOTE="Ishna, post: 201974, member: 2709"] I backtracked to the start of Baba Fareed Ji's shaloks towards the end of [URL='http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.gurbani?Action=Page&Param=1377&g=1&h=1&r=1&t=1&p=0&k=0&fb=0']panna 1377[/URL] and read through to the end at the bottom of panna 1384. I urge everyone to read them, because it is a timely reminder for us all, and your soul will soar with the updraft of this sweet Gurbani. This is the picture that emerged [I][B]for me personally[/B][/I], which shows how I come to the conclusion that I do, regarding Fareed's mention of waking before dawn: Our death is inevitable, so be spiritually alert. Life is full of worldly distractions. Hindsight won't help you, you have been warned. Don't make excuses. So, conduct yourself fairly, now is the time to do good deeds. If you don't, you'll suddenly find yourself old with no good deeds in the bank. Remember Guru while you're young, because if you don't, you're unlikely to when you're old. Remember now, and Guru will be with you always. Be humble, look for Guru within. Guru's path might seem hard, but worldly luxury is false poison. There is no rest (in the life-night) for the soul-bride in separation from Guru.

Fareed finds himself old and facing death, longing for Guru. People might have loads of worldly luxury but will still die, and it will be worse for them. Pain awaits those, even the ones who look pure on the outside, if they are dark on the inside. Fear "God", don't be greedy. Search inwardly for Guru, not outwardly. Fareed again find himself old and facing death, longing for Guru. He laments that he spent his youth in worldliness. He says he is asleep to his Husband-Lord, his days are passing away thus. Always remember death is coming for you. Forget about wasting your time doing anything that doesn't bring your closer to Guru. Don't waste your chance, or you'll regret it. We will all die, and be dead for ages and ages. It is not good to live badly. Get up now and pray. You're as good as dead if you don't. Life is hard, but be a good person. We are a guest, and the morning is coming - get ready to leave. [shalok 79] You don't collect musk sleeping through your life-night. Life is hard, but blessed, if you Love Guru. Remain alert, focus on Guru even through pain of life. Fareed again graphically reminds us of inevitable death. Dedicate yourself to Guru, because you [B]will [/B]die, even though you think you are immortal. What you do now in life will be taken to account. You can die at any time. Fareed is a sacrifice to those birds who do not leave Guru's side. Fareed has searched everywhere in the world but still doesn't find Guru. Nanak reminds him that Guru can be found in the mind. Those proud of wealth and youth will go empty handed. They suffer by forgetting Naam.

Youth brings flowers, old age brings fruit. Remain awake (alert to Guru) throughout your life-night to receive Gurus gifts. Be patient, look within, find Guru. Life is difficult, but don't be distracted by luxury. Take care of your body. Don't be fooled or trapped by life's charms. To attract Guru, be humble, forgiving, and mild-mannered. Guru is within everyone, so be nice to everyone. [/QUOTE]
