Some just in speculative state of mind try to attach Sikhism to Buddhism by giving the reasons actually lack the facts. There is no longing in Buddhism to be united with that energy Lord Buddha talks about; there is no stress on pervading Ordinance of the only Creator. Sree Guru Granth Sahib repeatedly stresses on these vital points. No wonder Guru ji moves on by mentioning only once about Buddha as one of the numerous the Lord created (Jap Ji.) otherwise no where else Lord Buddha’s wisdom is mentioned as of Vedas. Coming back to the longing for the Lord, now imagine, some one leads you to your goal, how the heart will be humble in gratitude. Guru ji expresses that gratitude in last Guru vaak. In other words, it is all about surrender to Guru, to stay only in his refuge to materialize the strong longing for the Lord.</strong></p><p> <strong><span style="color: maroon"><span style="font-family: 'AnmolUniPr'"><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%AE" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਰਾਮ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AE%E0%A9%88" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਮੈ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B9%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%BF" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਹਰਿ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B9%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%BF" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਹਰਿ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%A8%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%AE%E0%A9%81" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਨਾਮੁ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AE%E0%A8%A8%E0%A8%BF" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਮਨਿ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AD%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%87%E0%A8%86" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਭਾਇਆ</span> </a></span></span></strong><strong><span style="color: maroon"><span style="font-family: 'Mangal'">॥</span></span> </strong><strong><span style="color: maroon"><span style="font-family: 'AnmolUniPr'"><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AE%E0%A9%88" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਮੈ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B9%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%BF" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਹਰਿ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AC%E0%A8%BF%E0%A8%A8%E0%A9%81" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਬਿਨੁ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%85%E0%A8%B5%E0%A8%B0%E0%A9%81" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਅਵਰੁ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%A8" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਨ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%95%E0%A9%8B%E0%A8%88" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਕੋਈ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AC%E0%A9%87%E0%A8%B2%E0%A9%80" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਬੇਲੀ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AE%E0%A9%87%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%BE" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਮੇਰਾ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AA%E0%A8%BF%E0%A8%A4%E0%A8%BE" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਪਿਤਾ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AE%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%A4%E0%A8%BE" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਮਾਤਾ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B9%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%BF" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਹਰਿ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B8%E0%A8%96%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%87%E0%A8%86" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਸਖਾਇਆ</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A5%A5%E0%A9%A7%E0%A5%A5" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Mangal'">॥</span><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">੧</span><span style="font-family: 'Mangal'">॥</span> </a><a href="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%B9%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%89" target="_blank"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਰਹਾਉ</span> </a></span></span></strong><strong><span style="color: maroon"><span style="font-family: 'Mangal'">॥</span></span> </strong></p><p> <strong><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">Rām mai har har nām man bẖā▫i▫ā.</span> </strong><strong><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">Mai har bin avar na ko▫ī belī merā piṯā māṯā har sakẖā▫i▫ā. ||1|| rahā▫o.</span> </strong></p><p> <strong><span style="color: navy"><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">My Master, the Lord-God's Name is pleasing to my mind.</span></span> </strong><strong><span style="color: navy"><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">Without God, I have no other friend.

Translation has flaws, in essence it states “ Oh Lord have mercy so that I meet a true Guru, my beloved Lord you are support of my life. As a maid I will remain in Guru’s refuse in humbleness that has shown me the path to the Lord”)[/B] [B] A prayer is being done to the Lord to have a True Guru as it is the only Guru who can show the path to the Lord as per Dr Sahib Singh ji, interpretation, above translation shows the prayer is offered to True Guru to meet the Lord. Both ways, stress is on the devotee’s prayer to be with the Lord through the True Guru.[/B] [B] Here a longing for the Lord is expressed, a longing that is filled with love and humbleness. Some just in speculative state of mind try to attach Sikhism to Buddhism by giving the reasons actually lack the facts. There is no longing in Buddhism to be united with that energy Lord Buddha talks about; there is no stress on pervading Ordinance of the only Creator. Sree Guru Granth Sahib repeatedly stresses on these vital points. No wonder Guru ji moves on by mentioning only once about Buddha as one of the numerous the Lord created (Jap Ji.) otherwise no where else Lord Buddha’s wisdom is mentioned as of Vedas. Coming back to the longing for the Lord, now imagine, some one leads you to your goal, how the heart will be humble in gratitude. Guru ji expresses that gratitude in last Guru vaak. In other words, it is all about surrender to Guru, to stay only in his refuge to materialize the strong longing for the Lord.[/B] [B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=AnmolUniPr][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%AE"][FONT=Raavi]ਰਾਮ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AE%E0%A9%88"][FONT=Raavi]ਮੈ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B9%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%BF"][FONT=Raavi]ਹਰਿ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B9%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%BF"][FONT=Raavi]ਹਰਿ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%A8%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%AE%E0%A9%81"][FONT=Raavi]ਨਾਮੁ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AE%E0%A8%A8%E0%A8%BF"][FONT=Raavi]ਮਨਿ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AD%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%87%E0%A8%86"][FONT=Raavi]ਭਾਇਆ[/FONT] [/URL][/FONT][/COLOR][/B][B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=Mangal]॥[/FONT][/COLOR] [/B][B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=AnmolUniPr][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AE%E0%A9%88"][FONT=Raavi]ਮੈ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B9%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%BF"][FONT=Raavi]ਹਰਿ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AC%E0%A8%BF%E0%A8%A8%E0%A9%81"][FONT=Raavi]ਬਿਨੁ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%85%E0%A8%B5%E0%A8%B0%E0%A9%81"][FONT=Raavi]ਅਵਰੁ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%A8"][FONT=Raavi]ਨ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%95%E0%A9%8B%E0%A8%88"][FONT=Raavi]ਕੋਈ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AC%E0%A9%87%E0%A8%B2%E0%A9%80"][FONT=Raavi]ਬੇਲੀ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AE%E0%A9%87%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%BE"][FONT=Raavi]ਮੇਰਾ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AA%E0%A8%BF%E0%A8%A4%E0%A8%BE"][FONT=Raavi]ਪਿਤਾ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AE%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%A4%E0%A8%BE"][FONT=Raavi]ਮਾਤਾ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B9%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%BF"][FONT=Raavi]ਹਰਿ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B8%E0%A8%96%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%87%E0%A8%86"][FONT=Raavi]ਸਖਾਇਆ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A5%A5%E0%A9%A7%E0%A5%A5"][FONT=Mangal]॥[/FONT][FONT=Raavi]੧[/FONT][FONT=Mangal]॥[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%B9%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%89"][FONT=Raavi]ਰਹਾਉ[/FONT] [/URL][/FONT][/COLOR][/B][B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=Mangal]॥[/FONT][/COLOR] [/B] [B][FONT=Tahoma]Rām mai har har nām man bẖā▫i▫ā.[/FONT] [/B][B][FONT=Tahoma]Mai har bin avar na ko▫ī belī merā piṯā māṯā har sakẖā▫i▫ā. ||1|| rahā▫o.[/FONT] [/B] [B][COLOR=navy][FONT=Tahoma]My Master, the Lord-God's Name is pleasing to my mind.[/FONT][/COLOR] [/B][B][COLOR=navy][FONT=Tahoma]Without God, I have no other friend.
