We do what is suggested by the outer coating of the dirt. Yet the inner core listen to what the outer coating is saying and thus knows every thing. When we cleanse our being it is in fact removing the outer coating of the dirt, then we can listen to the voice that comes from the core of our inner self. ‘The Sat’ knows every thing – it cannot be fooled by any pretence. ‘The Sat’ is not impressed by what the Karmendriyas do, it sees, as I understand where the soft output of the functioning brain – mind – is.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"> <strong><u>Note</u>:</strong> Removing the dirt from the core means creating a mental make up which is not subordinate to senses.

This composite self leaves the body only to continue what agenda was left unfinished in the previous body and for this it finds a new body through which the objectives/desires that had remained unfulfilled can be accomplished. In the new birth again it collects some fresh dirt and when this new acquired body also becomes unworthy of supporting the needs of the composite self, it again leaves the body to find and new body to continue with its agenda. This way the process of birth and death continues and the composite self keeps going through this cycle of birth and death.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">When the composite self realizes its folly, it sheds the coated dirt on the core of the self. This core of the self is nothing but ‘The Sat’. Now the body to which this self belongs has only the core in its inner self. When the body becomes feeble this core leaves the body and the person dies; this inner self has no agenda left to be fulfilled. This core is ‘The Sat’; the Absolute within us and it stands merges – freed from the cycles of birth, death and rebirth.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">9.</span></span><span style="color: maroon"><span style="font-family: 'WebAkharThick'"> jo qum Bwny iqn pRBu jwqw ] </span></span><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">jo <u>t</u>um <u>bh</u>aanay <u>t</u>in para<u>bh</u> jaa<u>t</u>aa.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'">Those who live within stipulate of ‘The Sat’, they go your way; they are in a way similar to you.</span></span></p><p><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><span style="font-size: 12px">10.</span></span><span style="color: maroon"><span style="font-family: 'WebAkharThick'"> nwnk aun jn crn prwqw ]7] </span></span><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">naanak un jan charan paraa<u>t</u>aa. ||7||</span></span></p><p><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'"></span><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'">Nanak fall at the feet of such evolved persons.</span></span></p><p><strong><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'"><u>My understanding</u>:</span></span></strong></p><p><span style="font-size: 12px"><span style="font-family: 'Times New Roman'">In this Tuk, Guru Sahib tells us that the person who is living in accordance with the life meant to be lived in human form ( as I understand, it is to become instrument of God.

And by following the ways of such people in their lives the world is saved.[/SIZE][/FONT] [B][U][SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]Note:[/FONT][/SIZE][/U][/B] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]Here I share with you how I conceptualize the process of rebirth. [/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]The core of our inner self is ‘The Sat’. As we live a worldly life more and more of worldly desires coat this core of the inner self. The core along with the coating I refer to as composite self[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]When the body becomes feeble and no is longer worthy for the objectives of this composite self to be fulfilled, the composite self leaves the body and the person dies. This composite self leaves the body only to continue what agenda was left unfinished in the previous body and for this it finds a new body through which the objectives/desires that had remained unfulfilled can be accomplished. In the new birth again it collects some fresh dirt and when this new acquired body also becomes unworthy of supporting the needs of the composite self, it again leaves the body to find and new body to continue with its agenda. This way the process of birth and death continues and the composite self keeps going through this cycle of birth and death.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]When the composite self realizes its folly, it sheds the coated dirt on the core of the self. This core of the self is nothing but ‘The Sat’. Now the body to which this self belongs has only the core in its inner self. When the body becomes feeble this core leaves the body and the person dies; this inner self has no agenda left to be fulfilled. This core is ‘The Sat’; the Absolute within us and it stands merges – freed from the cycles of birth, death and rebirth.[/SIZE][/FONT] [FONT=Times New Roman][SIZE=3]9.[/SIZE][/FONT][COLOR=maroon][FONT=WebAkharThick] jo qum Bwny iqn pRBu jwqw ] [/FONT][/COLOR][SIZE=3][FONT=Tahoma]jo [U]t[/U]um [U]bh[/U]aanay [U]t[/U]in para[U]bh[/U] jaa[U]t[/U]aa.

Such persons live a Godly life - working for sustaining themselves through earning of honest work (Kirt) and to further evolve the creation of ‘The Sat’ and to protect its environment.) Such persons are worthy of highest form of reverence which Guru Sahib, who himself had reached the level of spiritual evolution and had become divine, say that he falls on the feet of such persons.[/FONT][/SIZE] [SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]With this I close the post.[/FONT][/SIZE] [SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]With love and respect for all.[/FONT][/SIZE] [SIZE=3][FONT=Times New Roman]Amarpal Singh[/FONT][/SIZE] [/QUOTE]
