[QUOTE="Amarpal, post: 141916, member: 10"] Dear Khalsa Ji, With the Grace of ‘The Sat’, today I share with you my understanding of the Shalok that precedes 10th Ashtapadee of Sukhmani Sahib of Siri Guru Granth Sahib. Please note that the English sentence after the Transliteration is not the exact literal translation of the text of the Tuk of Siri Guru Granth Sahib under reference, it is the meaning of the tuk as understood by me. 1. ausqiq krih Anyk jn AMqu n pwrwvwr ] ustat karahi anayk jan ant na paaraavaar. Numerous individuals perceive and pray in different ways, yet none of these encompass the totality of ‘The Sat’. My understanding: Guru Sahib in this Tuk is telling us that we are very limited. We cannot grasp the totality of ‘The Sat’. Whatever we perceive and conceptualise ‘The Sat’ and express about it will remain incomplete in great measure. Our understanding is similar to what the five blind men thought the elephant to be. The story is well known to all of us. 2. nwnk rcnw pRiB rcI bhu ibiD Aink pRkwr ]1] naanak rachnaa parabh rachee baho biDh anik parkaar. ||1|| O’ Nanak, ‘The Sat’ created its creation using different ways and with variety in it. My understanding: We all know that plants have leaves functionally they are similar as far as the plant is concerned but each plant has different leaves. The flowers are of different types thought for the plant, functionally the serve the same purpose. Take roses, so many variety of roses are there, different colours and configuration, some have fragrance other do not have that much fragrance. The same plant rose can be propagated using a cutting from the plant, it can be propagated from seed also. Life exists in plants and animals. The embodied soul is the same but form is different. Scripture of the land says that there are forms of life which we cannot perceive with our senses which are just like illuminate beings and have no weight, they can move around in the universe with ease. Scripture also says that we are on earth which is in one particular dimension, yet there are other dimensions which we cannot perceive. All this is to say that ‘The Sat’ has many ways of creating what it wants and the the variety that ‘The Sat’ creates is endless. From this I conclude that ‘Plurality’ is the way of ‘The Sat’ and we must respect it when it come to living our lives. Ahamkara takes us away from this principle of ‘The Sat’; dissolving Ahamkara brings us close to ‘The Sat’ This is what I understand from this shalok of Guru Sahib. With this I close the post. With love and respect for all. Amarpal Singh [/QUOTE]
