[QUOTE="Pathfinder, post: 212332, member: 21250"] [FONT=Arial][SIZE=5]A century ago, weather updates at sea were limited to Morse code messages.. Before we are blessed with faith and the Akaal's grace we receive storm warnings too but they are slow and take time to decipher. Akin to a manmukh. Today, captains can also receive weather maps, satellite images, and other information by email. Some vessels have more high-tech tools aboard, like onboard computer systems that help plan routes based on weather forecasts. This is similar to an upgrade in ourselves, when we elavate our being to 'flow with the current' like you aptly stated. We read signs of any slip-up from the planned course easily and plan as well as monitor our voyage better. Akin to an aspiring Gurmukh. The most dangerous ship in a hurricane is an empty one. That's because the weight of cargo helps stabilize the ship against the waves. Akin to ourselves - without faith in ourselves. The weight of our faith stabilises us. It can get kind of hairy, especially if you don't have cargo. I've been on ships, for example, where we would go from thirty degrees heeled over on one side, and we would whip across to thirty degrees heel on the other side in a matter of three and a half seconds. The rolling is hard for the crew, but the worst thing for a ship is the repeated impact of the hull slamming into the troughs between waves. The storm of life is no less scary as we slam to the whims and fancies of Maya. This is when it is easiest to falter as our weakness and our strength is exposed. Modern cargo ships are constructed of thick steel, but if the waves are large enough and their battering lasts long enough, the pounding of those impacts can still break a ship apart. The outer adherence or pretence to Waheguru can only last this much. The pretence will ultimately break one. Being a Gursikh is tough but then it is only because a Gursikh is tough. I once sent out a distress message in the horse latitudes of the south atlantic in a heavy storm. Five days later cancelled the same and the the storm was too bad for any rescue attempt anyways. My better half (she was sailing and onboard with me) asked me to join her in an Ardass. I said that as soon as it would be possible to stand up we could do the same. She smiled lovingly and simply stated - 'kapitano (imitating my Russian second in command) - you don't stand up to say an Ardass, you say an Ardass to stand up'. Yuri while eating the Parshad she had made and shared a few days later asked her how she was cheerful in the face of adversity, of certain death. She asked him how could he trust me in his darkest hour without question. He smiled and said - he is my Kapitano. Lol, she smiled - my Kapitano commands a bigger fleet than yours Yuri. Sail under his command and he will keep you safer than your Kapitano. Sign up to join the Akaal's fleet and under his command - he will take care and teach you to navigate through the storms and keep you in favourable currents. Sorry if I tend to go overboard and don't make sense in most of my posts, lol.[/SIZE][/FONT] [/QUOTE]
