Meditation is remembrance of the object(be Guru/God).[/COLOR] [COLOR=blue]And when we remember something we remember the attributes of the object. Keep in mind we are not talking about a Physical body here[/COLOR][COLOR=blue](discrimination between real and unreal has to be understood and done before completely understanding this tuk). [/COLOR][/COLOR][/COLOR][/SIZE][/B][/FONT] [COLOR=black][FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=blue][B][SIZE=4]The Bhagat does not refer to a physical body here, he is talking of that JeevAtma which is already one with ParmAtma. So there is no difference for this Bhagat between Guru Ji and God. For him Guru Ji’s attributes are the same as God’s attributes.[/SIZE][/B][/COLOR][/FONT][/COLOR] [B][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue][FONT=Times New Roman]As Guru Ji says- [/FONT][FONT=GurbaniWebThick]guru prmysru eyko jwxu ][/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] [B][SIZE=4][COLOR=blue][FONT=GurbaniWebThick]guru krqw guru krxY jogu ] guru prmysru hY BI hogu ] khu nwnk pRiB iehY jnweI ] ibnu gur mukiq n pweIAY BweI ] [/FONT][FONT=Times New Roman](SGGS- 864)[/FONT][/COLOR][/SIZE][/B] [COLOR=black][FONT=Times New Roman][COLOR=blue][B][SIZE=4]When a bhagat in real bangi meditates, it is not mere recitation of words. For example, if he/she says Sat Naam, Mind Body and Soul all are involved in this work, the person really means OH GOD YOUR NAME IS THE ONLY TRUTH, and a lot of unconditional love and devotion is also added to the said words(be it recited mentally or verbally).
