[QUOTE="chazSingh, post: 203967, member: 17409"] [U][B]Remembrance[/B][/U] Gurbani talks about remembrance... I am sat here now, thinking of God...that can be termed remembrance.. I try to see god in all, forgive and server the god in people, and try to focus my consciousness on God using GurShabad like Waheguru, Mool Manter and any gurbani...this is also remembrance.. But for all these actions...[B] am i really 'AWAKENING' to the God within me?[/B] [B]am i remembering where i once was...?or from where i came[/B]?[B]Or Who i really am[/B] Sometimes i get asked a question...and i know the answer...but for whatever reason i can't remember it...but i have this feeling inside that i know the answer... This is the feeling i get deep inside...that i am not just this body...that i am something infinitely more...but i can;t remember what...but i just know there is more to me and this existance...i can feel it...but it hurts sometimes that i can;t remember... Gurbani says we have spent soooo long Focussing through the 9 Doors of the physical Body that we have lost ourselves to our true nature...and locked to the outside dualistic world... Gurbani is giving me hints on how i can withdraw my attention from these 9 doors and find the secret tenth door from where i can begin my journey of[B]remembrance[/B]...bit by bit through grace of Guru being shown glimses of my true self...remembrance and awakening from this illusion that i am just this body. I must do my seva for it breads compassion and humility and love for all of God (his creation)...i must forgive as much as i can, fight for what is right and the truth in the physical sense, live an honest life and share my earnings and reduce the effects of my filthy Ego.... but in the end for all its powerful and divine effects, my focus/attentions is still primarily through the 9 doors of the physical body. I must spend some time, however little that is, also following Guru Ji's instructions to really deeply unlock my unconsious mind to[B]remember my True Self and God[/B]... and for that i must do the following.. [I]You were careless, and you have wasted your life; your home is being plundered by thieves.[I]The five senses stand as guards at the gate, but now can they be trusted?[I]When you are conscious in your consciousness, you shall be enlightened and illuminated[I]Seeing the nine openings of the body, the soul-bride is led astray; she does not obtain that incomparable thing.Says Kabeer, the nine openings of the body are being plundered; rise up to the Tenth Gate, and discover the true essence [URL]http://www.sikhitothemax.com/page.asp?ShabadID=1357[/URL] [I]Those who close off the nine gates, and restrain the wandering mind, come to dwell in the Home of the Tenth Gate. There, the Unstruck Melody of the Shabad vibrates day and night. Through the Guru's Teachings, the Shabad is heard Without the Shabad, there is only darkness within[I][URL]http://www.sikhitothemax.com/page.asp?ShabadID=344[/URL]Taking all the above into my life...a portion of my life is dedicated to sitting in a quiet room, no sound to distract me....In a dark room, no external light to attract my attention...i sit and breath..and try to clear/ignore my wandering mind... The sound of Waheguru moving through my mind keeps my focus on my destination....I want to know..i want to awaken... I focus my attention to within me....now it is only me and God...reveal yourself to me...glance your grace on this soul...I have withdrawn all connection to the outside world....who am i...who am i...enlighten me...help me remember...this yearning to know...this yearning to be somewhere...what is it...i fall at your feet..there is nothing more i can do... This is my prayer to God whilst sat at my desk and whilst i sit in deep meditation...and then i remain quiet and listen....[/I][/I][/I][/I][/I][/I] [/QUOTE]
