Gurbani

I am going to start with a reminder that Guru Gobind Singh Ji’s Father was executed when he was 9, Hi two elder son’s gained Martydom when Guru Sahib’s age was 38 years and two months, His younger sons and Grandmother gained Martydom 4 days after he turned 39. His grandfather was gone before Guru Sahib was born. Guru Gobind Saab himself left his world at the age of 42. yet Guru Sahib said ‘ Bhaana Meetha Laagey Tera’ and went on to create a world and environment that we live in today. So abiding by Gurbani does give you some strength and a path to follow.

Theres something written in Gurbani along the lines, you cannot choose your parents and child, but its the sins of past lives that put you through whatever difficulties and suffering you are going through.

THE THING IS Gurbani says that it can help you to live and rise among all the suffering and create and better conditions/world for your family and maybe end up doing something good for entire world. BUT you have to learn and realise the MEANING of Gurbani in Guru Granth Sahib like a book and not keep enchanting it like a ‘Mantar’ day and night.

You will suffer according to your past life, but you can change the course of this life and you can make sure to get a good one next when Jamdoot appears after your death. It also says you can completely get rid of the cycle of 84 lakhs joonis and become one with God if you follow Guru’s Hukam.

THIS is my personal take : People are categorized based on their deeds in a complex arrangement thats entangled with whom they are born to and meet all their life and also their circumstances too. People spend their whole lives either living in Hukam, be it their Parents/ Grandparents wisdom or simply rarely get to experience dark side of Humanity or circumstances, be it Sikh or not.

On the other hand People are born in worst conditions with miserable families doing bad deeds to each other and world, without realising God’s Hukam at all. They are among the ones on whom God doesn’t even shines his light on their whole lives, maybe at the end of their cycle when they are too old to do something about it and keep drowning in their past deeds.

Then there’s THIRD, who live among conditions good or bad but God shines his light on them atleast once in a life and it’s upto them to follow the path and seek the truth or not. This can literally make a difference of day and night of their lives as long as they live by Hukam.

Now you may ask what this ‘Hukam’ is , Sri Guru Nanak Sahib started explaining this in first baani of Guru Granth Sahib : Japji Sahib and rest is followed throughout Guru Granth Sahib.

I don’t want to strecth this way too long and don’t know how to end this either so… Take care. Do ask anything if you like….
