bhagat ravidas ji prays
and guru arjan dev ji says
my question is if waheguru already cares for all , as guru arjan dev ji is saying in above shabad then why bhagat ravidas ji is saying “please do not forgot me , i am your humble servent”.
thanks
Each Shabad has its own message. It is important to go through the whole shabad to get the big picture and then study the verse of initerest.
The Shabad by Bhagat Ravidas relartes this message:
One whose actions are crooked and keeps company of the wretched will be anxious. Realising this state, one calls upon God to remember and help that person out of this state.
In the Shabad by Guru Arjan the message is:
God cares for everyone. God is the giver of all. Without God’s power one cannot accomplish anything. So what should one do. Follow the path taught by the Gurus and listen to the holy people, and meditate on God.
Notice the messages in both do not contradict. One has to meditate on God (Shabad 2) and that is what Bhagat Ravidas is saying (Sbabad 1).
