[QUOTE="Astroboy, post: 126813, member: 4990"] I would like to throw some light on THE LIVING WORD as appears in the Bible, Sufi Order and Sri Guru Granth Sahib. In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God. The same was in the beginning with God. All things were made by Him: and without Him was not anything made that was made. In Him was life; and life was the light of men... John 1:1-5 Abdul Razaq Kashi tells us,[INDENT]The Great Name (ism-i-azam) is the very essence and life of all names. Its manifested form (Shabd) is supporting the entire creation, It is the great sea in which we all appear as waves. He alone can understand this mystery who belongs to our order.[/INDENT]SHABD IS NOT THE SUBJECT OF READING, RITUAL OR RECITING The Inner Sound Principle is All-Conscious and too subtle for the ears, the tongue and the pen. It is an Unwritten Law and an Unspoken Language. It is self-existing, self-sustaining and self-supporting and yet is the very life of all that exists both in the animate and inanimate creation. But It can be realized in the deepest depths of the soul, for the two are of the same essence, the soul being but a drop of the Ocean of All-Consciousness. In the Sikh scriptures, It is also called "Sacha Shabd" or the True Word: Sriraag M.3 (Ang 35) [URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.gurbani?Action=Page&Param=35&english=t&id=1461#l1461"]Page 35, Line 16[/URL] ਸਚੈ ਸਬਦਿ ਮਨੁ ਮੋਹਿਆ ਪ੍ਰਭਿ ਆਪੇ ਲਏ ਮਿਲਾਇ ॥ सचै सबदि मनु मोहिआ प्रभि आपे लए मिलाइ ॥ Sacẖai sabaḏ man mohi▫ā parabẖ āpe la▫e milā▫e. God joins to Himself those whose minds are fascinated with the True Word of His Shabad. Guru Amar Das - [URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.gurbani?Action=KeertanPage&K=35&L=16&id=1461"]view Shabad/Paurhi/Salok[/URL] [URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.gurbani?Action=Page&Param=117&english=t&id=4760#l4760"]Page 117, Line 8[/URL] ਉਤਪਤਿ ਪਰਲਉ ਸਬਦੇ ਹੋਵੈ ॥ उतपति परलउ सबदे होवै ॥ Uṯpaṯ parla▫o sabḏe hovai. Creation and destruction happen through the Word of the Shabad. Guru Amar Das - [URL="http://www.srigranth.org/servlet/gurbani.gurbani?Action=KeertanPage&K=117&L=8&id=4760"]view Shabad/Paurhi/Salok[/URL] [/QUOTE]
