      NIRBHAU JAPAI SAGAL BHAU MITAI
      NIR means without and BHAU means FEAR. NIRBHAU mean without fear or fearless. Fear is an emotional drain for humans. Then how to be fearless? According to GURBANI, GOD, SATGURU, AKAL PURAKH is without fear. There is a spiritual reason for this. GURU says JAB APEH AAP APNEE JOYT DHARAI. TAB KAWAN NIDAR KAWAN KAT DARAI (SGGS PAGE 291) meaning when GOD, SHABAD (WORD), THE LIFE FORCE existed itself and there was nothing else, then there was no meaning of fear or being fearless. I fear from other, someone other than me.
      I believe there are three key fears. One fear of others, two fear of death and three fear of losing something of material value. Communities fear from other communities, nations fear from other nations. We fear from losing a job, business, or control over others. GURU says NIRBHAU JAPAI SAGAL BHAU MITAI (SGGS PAGE 293) meaning when I meditate, contemplate on SHABAD GURU, GOD, THE SPIRIT OF ENLIGHTENMENT, IK ONKAR, then my perspective of life changes; my life is no longer driven by my own thoughts (SANSKARS), MY EGO and my value system learned from the society. It is the separate, but illusory self that harbors fears because it experiences itself as separate and under threat, and it wants to accumulate and hold things to itself. I lose myself and the separate illusionary self does not exist anymore. I realized my true self, become one with IK, THE NIRBHAU ONENESS. GURU says EK PITA EKS KE HUM BARIK (SGGS PAGE 611) means I am like a drop of ocean, part of the IK, THE UNIVERSAL LIFE FORCE, NIRBHAU, so who should I fear from? GURU says SABAD MARHOO PHIR JEEVAHO SAD HEE TA PHIR MARAN NA HOEE (SGGS PAGE 604), meaning, when I drop my perspective of life completely and live GURU perspective of life, I die while alive. Everyone dies a physical death, that is the law of nature. But there is no more spiritual death. Now I have no fear of losing anything of material value because I have risen above attachment. I am involved in the circumstances and people in my life but from a detached state such that I see it all not as mine, to be held and protected by me, but rather as the play of God, belonging to God and controlled by God. I flow with life as it happens, remaining connected to the wisdom and allowing the wisdom to flow through me and the unique capabilities I’ve been given, to help uplift the circumstances and people around me.
      It may sound like a concept but it can be achieved experientially.

      Nirbhao:- jisnu nu kise da darr nahi ji
      Nirwair:- jisda kise nal koi vair virodh nahi ji

      In simple terms:
      Nirbhau means fearless, the One who fears none.
      Nirvaer means without enmity, without hate. The One who treats all equal.
      Nirbhau and Nirvaer are the core virtues of Ekankaar, akaal purakh. Sikh’s journey to embrace sachiaar jeevan (truthful living) is in fact embracing the divine virtues of Nirbhau and Nirvaer.
      This topic is worth contemplating, here’s a small explanation: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=o0efg–YFEw&list=PLnkkt7UWfvhyvJwScCWIJwguN9YIcFGin&index=1

      ਭੈ ਕਾਹੂ ਕਉ ਦੇਤ ਨਹਿ ਨਹਿ ਭੈ ਮਾਨਤ ਆਨ ॥ ਕਹੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਸੁਨਿ ਰੇ ਮਨਾ ਗਿਆਨੀ ਤਾਹਿ ਬਖਾਨਿ ॥੧੬॥ Salok Mehl 9 – 1427

      Nirvair and Nirbho are very nicely defined in this Shabad.

      The person who has both of these qualities, can really be called as Giani
