There is no problem with theory of tranmigration or reincarnation or mukti. What i do not understand is the role of <a href="http://www.sikhism.us/" target="_blank">Karma</a>. If god is all and everything is in hukam, then who does karam - good or bad. If our reincarnation is dependent upon <a href="http://www.sikhism.us/" target="_blank">Karma</a> then it makes sense as long as we are human or even may be some other higher level animal, but as a tree what karam can "we" perform or even as an microbe etc that we are judged. Please provide some insight.</p><p></p><p> <strong>To find answer for it, we must understand the Guru Message in totality. I will try my best, as per my understanding of Gurbani, to answer it, will it satisfy you or not, I don’t know.</strong></p><p> </p><p> <strong>Karma are actions taken by individuals under the effect of virtuous or selfish behavior. Every action triggers reaction. His Hukam is not individual; it’s like law applicable to the total existence known or unknown to us, to understand it, look at the laws of nature. Gurmukh is supposed to understand His Hukam and to act virtuously because Guru enables him/her to understand that Hukam. All this Maya show becomes insignificant for him(her); his only enjoyment is virtuous path. Now let’s take your question directly. “If god is all and everything is in hukam, then who does karam - good or bad.”</strong></p><p> <strong>Gurbani says</strong><strong><span style="color:

There is a separation from the all pervading Soul (Lord) because of their having separate existence though His manifestation is present in all, that separation can only be ended if beings do efforts to unite with that Super Soul also known as Lord. Here lies your question, which is answered by Guru Nanak in the above Guru Vaak as per given “SURAT”, actions occur. So there are those who are into good deeds and there are some who do bad deeds, Gurbani accepts it as His Ordinance because this is the way they are blessed with the awareness and are set in a situation. Like some do good deeds just to impress others, Gurbani rejects that by labeling it as a display of” I-ness” because it is not an effort to end separation. If one wants to unite with Him then why to impress others, please others etc. Here given consciousness is abused by that particular being. All are given consciousness to make choices. In an environment, it gets sculptured, if it is sculptured in a good way, credit goes to Him, if in a bad way, still credit goes to Him because there is nothing without Him </span></strong><span style="color: black">“</span><strong><span style="color: black"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਜੇਤਾ ਕੀਤਾ</span></span></strong><strong><span style="color: #ab5555"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਤੇਤਾ ਨਾਉ</span></span></strong><strong><span style="color: black"><span style="font-family: 'Mangal'">॥</span></span></strong></p><p><strong></strong><strong><span style="color: black">Je</span></strong><strong><span style="color: black"><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">ṯ</span></span></strong><strong><span style="color: black">ā kī</span></strong><strong><span style="color: black"><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">ṯ</span></span></strong><strong><span style="color: black">ā </span></strong><strong><span style="color: black"><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">ṯ</span></span></strong><strong><span style="color: black">e</span></strong><strong><span style="color: black"><span style="font-family: 'Tahoma'">ṯ</span></span></strong><strong><span style="color: black">ā nā▫o.</span></strong></p><p><strong></strong><strong><span style="color: black">The created universe( all your cration) is the manifestation of Your Name.</span></strong></p><p><strong></strong><strong><span style="color: green"><span style="font-family: 'Raavi'">ਮਃ </span></span></strong><strong><span style="color: green"><span style="font-family: 'AnmolUniPr'">1</span></span> )</strong></p><p> <strong> That is why</strong> <strong><span style="color: black">Second Mehal says “Servant (we) should not question the boss (Lord)”, when we do not do our duty to be worthy of Him, what right we have left to question Him or His Ordinance.”</span></strong></p><p> <strong><span style="color: black">Now coming to the point “how a tree can perform good or bad deeds or to be worthy of Him?” Answer is very simple.

[QUOTE="pk70, post: 89054, member: 5889"] [b]Re: Translations and Transliterations of Sri Guru Granth Sahib: Issues and Controvers[/b] [B]Following is a question asked by our respected member axo547 ji[/B], [B]it is very interesting question[/B] I have question, may be you can help. There is no problem with theory of tranmigration or reincarnation or mukti. What i do not understand is the role of [URL="http://www.sikhism.us/"]Karma[/URL]. If god is all and everything is in hukam, then who does karam - good or bad. If our reincarnation is dependent upon [URL="http://www.sikhism.us/"]Karma[/URL] then it makes sense as long as we are human or even may be some other higher level animal, but as a tree what karam can "we" perform or even as an microbe etc that we are judged. Please provide some insight. [B]To find answer for it, we must understand the Guru Message in totality. I will try my best, as per my understanding of Gurbani, to answer it, will it satisfy you or not, I don’t know.[/B] [B]Karma are actions taken by individuals under the effect of virtuous or selfish behavior. Every action triggers reaction. His Hukam is not individual; it’s like law applicable to the total existence known or unknown to us, to understand it, look at the laws of nature. Gurmukh is supposed to understand His Hukam and to act virtuously because Guru enables him/her to understand that Hukam. All this Maya show becomes insignificant for him(her); his only enjoyment is virtuous path. Now let’s take your question directly. “If god is all and everything is in hukam, then who does karam - good or bad.”[/B] [B]Gurbani says[/B][B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=AnmolUniPr] [URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B8%E0%A8%BF%E0%A8%B0%E0%A9%80%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%97%E0%A9%81"][FONT=Raavi]ਸਿਰੀਰਾਗੁ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%AE%E0%A8%B9%E0%A8%B2%E0%A8%BE"][FONT=Raavi]ਮਹਲਾ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A9%A7"][FONT=Raavi]੧[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%98%E0%A8%B0%E0%A9%81"][FONT=Raavi]ਘਰੁ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A9%AA"][FONT=Raavi]੪[/FONT] [/URL][/FONT][/COLOR][/B][B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=Mangal]॥[/FONT][/COLOR] [/B][B][FONT=Tahoma]Sirīrāg mėhlā 1 gẖar 4.[/FONT] [/B][B][COLOR=navy]Sri Rag, First Guru.[/COLOR] [/B][B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=AnmolUniPr][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%8F%E0%A8%95%E0%A8%BE"][FONT=Raavi]ਏਕਾ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B8%E0%A9%81%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%A4%E0%A8%BF"][FONT=Raavi]ਸੁਰਤਿ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%9C%E0%A9%87%E0%A8%A4%E0%A9%87"][FONT=Raavi]ਜੇਤੇ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B9%E0%A9%88"][FONT=Raavi]ਹੈ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%9C%E0%A9%80%E0%A8%85"][FONT=Raavi]ਜੀਅ[/FONT] [/URL][/FONT][/COLOR][/B][B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=Mangal]॥[/FONT][/COLOR] [/B][B][FONT=Tahoma]Ėkā suraṯ jeṯe hai jī▫a.[/FONT] [/B][B][COLOR=navy]There is the same inner conscious-ness amongst all the beings.[/COLOR] [/B][B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=AnmolUniPr][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B8%E0%A9%81%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%A4%E0%A8%BF"][FONT=Raavi]ਸੁਰਤਿ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B5%E0%A8%BF%E0%A8%B9%E0%A9%82%E0%A8%A3%E0%A8%BE"][FONT=Raavi]ਵਿਹੂਣਾ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%95%E0%A9%8B%E0%A8%87"][FONT=Raavi]ਕੋਇ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%A8"][FONT=Raavi]ਨ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%95%E0%A9%80%E0%A8%85"][FONT=Raavi]ਕੀਅ[/FONT] [/URL][/FONT][/COLOR][/B][B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=Mangal]॥[/FONT][/COLOR] [/B][B][FONT=Tahoma]Suraṯ vihūṇā ko▫e na kī▫a.[/FONT] [/B][B][COLOR=navy]Without inner consciousness He has created none.5[/COLOR][/B] [B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=AnmolUniPr][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%9C%E0%A9%87%E0%A8%B9%E0%A9%80"][FONT=Raavi]ਜੇਹੀ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B8%E0%A9%81%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%A4%E0%A8%BF"][FONT=Raavi]ਸੁਰਤਿ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%A4%E0%A9%87%E0%A8%B9%E0%A8%BE"][FONT=Raavi]ਤੇਹਾ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%A4%E0%A8%BF%E0%A8%A8"][FONT=Raavi]ਤਿਨ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B0%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%B9%E0%A9%81"][FONT=Raavi]ਰਾਹੁ[/FONT] [/URL][/FONT][/COLOR][/B][B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=Mangal]॥[/FONT][/COLOR] [/B][B][FONT=Tahoma]Jehī suraṯ ṯehā ṯin rāhu.[/FONT] [/B][B][COLOR=navy]As is the consciousness, so is their way.[/COLOR] [/B][B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=AnmolUniPr][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%B2%E0%A9%87%E0%A8%96%E0%A8%BE"][FONT=Raavi]ਲੇਖਾ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%87%E0%A8%95%E0%A9%8B"][FONT=Raavi]ਇਕੋ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%86%E0%A8%B5%E0%A8%B9%E0%A9%81"][FONT=Raavi]ਆਵਹੁ[/FONT] [/URL][URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.dictionary?Param=%E0%A8%9C%E0%A8%BE%E0%A8%B9%E0%A9%81"][FONT=Raavi]ਜਾਹੁ[/FONT] [/URL][/FONT][/COLOR][/B][B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=Mangal]॥[/FONT][/COLOR][/B][B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=Raavi]੧[/FONT][/COLOR][/B][B][COLOR=maroon][FONT=Mangal]॥[/FONT][/COLOR] [/B][B][FONT=Tahoma]Lekẖā iko āvhu jāhu. ||1||[/FONT] [/B][B][COLOR=black]He alone (call mortals) to account (and subject) to his order they come and go.

There is a separation from the all pervading Soul (Lord) because of their having separate existence though His manifestation is present in all, that separation can only be ended if beings do efforts to unite with that Super Soul also known as Lord. Here lies your question, which is answered by Guru Nanak in the above Guru Vaak as per given “SURAT”, actions occur. So there are those who are into good deeds and there are some who do bad deeds, Gurbani accepts it as His Ordinance because this is the way they are blessed with the awareness and are set in a situation. Like some do good deeds just to impress others, Gurbani rejects that by labeling it as a display of” I-ness” because it is not an effort to end separation.
