[QUOTE="Gyani Jarnail Singh, post: 161198, member: 189"] Whne Guru Ji mentions the "Elephant" bathing...its a ATTRIBUTE millions of HUMANS have. What does an elephant do in water..?? IT jumps right in ( Humans jump into Sarovars/teeraths/Ganges River etc)..Then it ses its trunk to throw water all over its body (humans use their cupped hands od dip into the waters)...After the Elephnat is FINISHED..It rushes OUT and on reaching the FIRST DIRT heap..immediately sukcs up the DIRT and SPRAYS it all over its BODY. Immediately after the "cleansing" bath it had..its covered itself in dirt once again. ( Humans emerge from the "purifying waters" of their Teerath/sarovar/holy rivers..etc etc..and IMMEDIATELY begin HEAPING "DIRT" back on themsleves...Dirt of Ninda chuglee, kaamee thoughts, lusty eyes on shapely bodies, anger, krodh, etc etc....in FACT GURBANI clearly declares without a doubt that MOST of the so calle d"pilgrims" who wnet to the teeraths to purify themsleves..in fact returned DIRTIER becasue in addition to whatever paaps etc they went to wash off (impossible to wash the MANN with WATER - itself an exercise in FUTILITY)..their RETURN is LOADED with Extra EGO..hankaar at having WASHED OFF thier imaginary Paaps... Any Biologist worth his salt can tell us WHY Elephants throw DIRT on their bodies immediately after bathing...the DIRT effectively STICKS to a wet body and provides a "SECURE COVERING" against mosquitoes, bugs etc that irritate the elephant/suck its blood etc. So the odd looking action of the elephant is actually a NATURAL ONE..the Elephant need not have any Gyaan, Knowledge etc...its following its natural instincts.. BUT for HUMANS with BRAINS..knowledge of DHARAM..etc etc..to COPY CAT the Elephant..?????? The Aim of GURU Ji isto EDUCATE the HUMAN do DISCARD this uselss RITUAL which he thinks is DHARAMIK..RELIGIOUS...??? No such thing says Nanak Ji..its so stupid. Guru Ji is UTILISING the Elephant EXAMPLE..to IMPART an important GURMATT PRINCIPLE. As I mentioned earlier many times...those people rooted in Hindu mythology/dharama etc..just have to notice the word"elephant"...and immediately their minds go into..teh MYTHICAL elephant stuck in some quick sand..the elephant that has no gyaan..no knowledge of dharma etc etc and such "Backwards Compatible" thought process is clearly visible in many translations....even in one of the shabads Bhagat quoted above...( The elephant had no virtue and no knowledge; what religious rituals has he performed?) ............???? why would an elephant need to have "virtue"..dharam and rituals to perform..and why need RITUALS ?? anyway ??
