SatNaam Paji, Dandauth bandhna ji
you are doing quite well on your own, just to be able to give up old habits, to go and visit Sadhguru and others, to have daily discipline and now to ask for help, these are all blessings to you. The thing you are realising now is that by your own efforts you have only been able to get so far and the question comes up inside you is that to get further you need something else. And that is really why are emailing us, because you do not know what that something else is. That dear brother is called GURPARSAAD - Eternal Blessings of The Guru, or God-Guru's Grace.
Simply put we are physical beings, doing physical actions through mind and body. But our soul is spiritual. So how can we go from phsycial to spiritual realm within us? Not through our own efforts as that is physcial effort underth gudince of what "I" (ego) thinks is right or wrong. Ego cant beat ego. Only Guru's Grace, the Gurparsaad, can help us to transcend the physical limitations , go beyond ego, and into the spiritual part of yourself.
The Grace you get from the SatGuru, He gives us the Gurparsaadi Naam - the Eternal Blessed Naam called SATNAAM. You have been doing nitnem and waheguru waheguru, which is a great start, but the next step is GurParsaadi Naam, and is what all of nitnem is talking about and waheguru waheguru is praising the Guru who gives you the GurParsaad of Naam.
Look at Japji Sahib ji, "ikdu jibau lakh hovay lakh hovay lakh vees, lakh lakh gera aakheeaa IK NAAM jagdees' ..." even if I had 20 million tongues I would recite the ONE NAAM of God.
And the stages you go through are also in japji sahib -
1) dharam khand - where you started finding out about the path of union - gave up bad habits stared tryng to live a better life,
2)gian khand - you srtaed reading nitnem and gained divine wisdom
3) saram khand - you made serious efforts to put the divine wisdom into practise.
AND THAT IS WHERE YOU ARE NOW.
But, next is
4) Kharam khand - realm of grace - GURPARSAAD - no one goes to God without receiveing HIS GRACE (not by your efforts). And his grace comes through the one within whom HE IS FULLY MANIFEST - that is the SATGURU. So you have emailed us, and we are pointing you to Dassan Dass ji , the one gives GURPARSAADI NAAM .
But, the next stage is only for the ones who are seriously committed. Guru Nanak Dev ji says "if you want to play the game of love, then bring your head on the palm of your hand. Stepping on this , give your head, AND DONT LOOK BACK." (jo tho prem khelan ka chao sir dhar tlaee galee meree ao, ith marag pair dareejay, sir deejay kahn na keejay.") And you have to play the same game of love - the price of receiving GURPARSAADI NAAM - the anmolak heera - priceless diamond that your soul has been seeking for ALL OF ITS LIFETIMES, is your HEAD. Which practically means you ahve to surrender, mind, body and wealth to your GURU, the one who gace you the priceless diamond of GURPARSAADI NAAM. Just like Bhai Lehna ji surrendered completely at Baba Nanak Ji's feet and subsequent Gurus did the same for the Guru , and even before them the Bhagats surrendered to their Gurus, you too my fried have to play the same game of love, of 100% surrender, love , faith and trust in the Guru who gives you naam.
Then you will be able to sit for 2.5hrs and do the NAAM SIMRAN your Guru gives you, then there is no need for doing nitnem or waheguru waheguru anymore, as their job is done. Now 2.5hrs a day focusin on SATNAAM with SATGURU JI's lotus feet in your heart is the way to the spiritual part of yourself.
When the Guru , like Dassan Dass ji , blesses you, he doesn't physically need to meet you. You send an email to him (dassandass3@yahoo.com), he will know all about you from within in and open your heart connection to God within yourself. He plants the seed of SATNAAM, the Infinite divine Power, into your astral body. (between the physical(mental, emotional, physcial body) and spiritual (soul) part of yourself is the astral body). Then He will also be with you in astral form everytime you recite SATNAAM, and first you will clean up in your day to day conscious state, then you will clean up your subsconscious (do good deeds in your dreams, overcome the 5 thieves, give up unfulfilled desires, throw out all of your doubts and negativty), then you will feel peace, love, light and ultimatel merge into the TRUTH (SAT) that you have been remembering SATNAAM SIMRAN.
And that is then known as SACH KHAND - realm of TRUTH within you. SACH KHAND VASAY NIRANKAAR - in the realm of TRUTH , the FORMLESS ONE resides.
To get here you need so many blessings from the Guru, you need to do so much seva, becoming totally selfless you realise the TRUTH - seva karat hoi nikaamee tis sevak hoth prapat swamee.
What do you think ji of the next step?
We are in UK (Milon Keynes) and have monthly sangat in Hounslow. Dassan Dass ji is physcially in USA and his guru, Baba Ji, is in Canada. You are more than welcom to meet us in the UK whenever you come back. you can email Dassan Dass ji, or even phone Baba ji in canada. Whatever suits you, we are all here to help.
Dust of your feet.
