[QUOTE="chazSingh, post: 180783, member: 17409"] i agree that reading calculated number of shabad will not bring you realisation of god...but the methodology behind is i believe is a step in the right direction. the 5 thieves manifest in our minds as thoughts...and we pick up them thoughts and think about them, discard some, act on some of them...they pretty much dictate our actions....we run around like unconscious robots at the hands of them. by doing something completely different (using your mind) and trying to break the mind out of its useless thought manifestations...we can begin to retain control and become conscious again...acting on our intutition, our love, compassion, forgiveness without 'overthinking things'. often just repeating anything over and over is attempting to take the mind out of it's usual bad habits and thoughts...mind always tries to fight back...this is the battle of the mind that gurbani talks about over and over. the problem is that people think the repeating will give them realisation...so it becomes a ritual...if you know what its for, it becomes a useful practice... a darts coach can spend years trying to take a darts player out of a bad habit of holding and throwing a dart...they do this by repetition practice...eventually the bad habbit is removed....same principle. some people take this further and sit during amrit vela, quiet place, dark room...so that they block out as much usage of external senses...and they use a mantra to stop the mind from thinking about all the crap that it does, and then they sit and observe and be a witness to what exists in the silent space between the thoughts... if we receive guru ji's grace we touch base with inner shabad...and so our journey towards god realisation begins... To me this is what the below shabad tells me. from my own experiences i relate to the shabad below. The complete shabad is really long and can be read via this link: [URL]http://www.sikhitothemax.com/page.asp?ShabadID=3406[/URL] naanak naam rathae path hoe ||9|| O Nanak, imbued with the Naam, the Name of the Lord, one is honored. ||9|| raajan raam ravai hithakaar || One who lovingly chants the Name of the Sovereign Lord King, ran mehi loojhai manooaa maar || fights the battle and conquers his own mind; raath dhina(n)th rehai ra(n)g raathaa || day and night, he remains imbued with the Lord's Love.
