[QUOTE="Sikh80, post: 78054, member: 5290"] [COLOR=Blue] For those young Sikhs who question about Naam,here are a few words: Naam is that which puts life into you.You are alive because of Atma or soul,which is a bit of Naam in action.Naam is in everything,just as God is in everything,is omnipotent. So God is Naam.Hence Satnaam or True Name.When we meditate on God,we meditate on His Naam(Name)since we can't meditate on His picture or image,as He has no picture.But His word is there in the holy books of different religions.If you are a Sikh,you meditate on His Word in the Guru Granth.So Naam of God is His Word,i.e. Gurbani. Also as a single word-mantra,"Waheguru" is Naam as given by our Guru.Chanting or reciting "Waheguru" brings us closer to God because it is a way of remembering Him by doing Simran.Moolmantra is also considered Naam.Human beings with Naam awakened in their minds are known as Gurmukhs while those without Naam are manmukhs or self-oriented.Guru Granth teaches that Naam's effect is real,most powerful and almost 'magical'. Through Naam,body and soul blossoms,all pain(Dukh)vanishes,wisdom comes,success and prosperity come in life and the practising Sikh is in true Bliss(Anand) forever.He learns the true purpose of life and the uselessness of hankering after material things or 'maya'.Only kaam(lust),krodh(rage),lobh(greed),moh(attachment) and ahankaar(pride,ego)keep us away from Naam or God,which will never come to reside in a mind occupied by these five evils. And when,with Guru's blessing,God or Naam does come into the mind,then these evils disappear and the person becomes God-oriented,truthful or pure.Remember Guru Nanak said truthful living is even higher than Truth,which is supposed to be the highest.So with Naam,there is a real transformation in the individual into a good,useful,contented person or a healthy,happy,holy human[/COLOR] .
