Those, whom the Creator Lord would destroy - first He strips them of virtue

Satnaam Satguru Satsangat ji,
Dandauth Bandhana Ji,
 
whilst reading through Guru Nanak Ji's divine verses, the following line struck me
 
"ਜਿਸ ਨੋ ਆਪਿ ਖੁਆਏ ਕਰਤਾ ਖੁਸਿ ਲਏ ਚੰਗਿਆਈ ॥੩(417)

Those, whom the Creator Lord would destroy - first He strips them of virtue. ||3||"   SGGS 417

 
On one side we have SatGuru Ji's divine teachings that to be God's virtuous wife (GUNN-VANTI) we need to collect the 32 virtues and wear them as necklace to please our Husband, the Lord Himself.  So we strive to collect these virtues like kindness, forgiveness, humbleness and so on.   Also we know we are only capable of doing this because we have been blessed with Gurprasad - God's grace through our Guru.  And before even receiving the Grace (Gurprasad) in person from our Guru, we also know it only happened because God decided that it was time for our particular soul to come back to Him - so He Himself gave the order in His Royal Court (Dargah) and cast His favourable glance (NADAR) upon us. Here are the steps :
 
1) due to our accumulation of good deeds, God decided we would be saved and gave the order in God's court,
2) He Himself came to us in the form of the Guru at the time and place set by God Himself  ("Bhaag hoa gur-sant milaayaa"..Guru Ram Das ji).  
3) He Himself arranged all the opportunities for us to collect the 32 virtues (GUNNs) by arranging for us to have holy congregation (sat-sangat), divine email forums, divine websites, Gurdwaras to do service and so on,
4) when we are completely virtuous , He Himself takes us into His embrace as His wife (suhagan) and the wife forever (Sada Suhagan) - no chance of divorcing God! No chance of falling back into Maya's hands.
 
But, the opposite is also true.  How do some souls come to destruction?  It also starts with God's command and that is what Guru Nanak Dev ji is explaining to us.
 
"ਜਿਸ ਨੋ ਆਪਿ ਖੁਆਏ ਕਰਤਾ ਖੁਸਿ ਲਏ ਚੰਗਿਆਈ ॥੩(417)

Those, whom the Creator Lord would destroy - first He strips them of virtue. ||3||"   SGGS 417

 
Souls that have collected so many sins under the influence of maya are judged in God's royal court (Dargah) :
 
1) Due to the accumulation of bad deeds, God himself decides that they are to be destroyed and gives the order in God's court (DARGAH)
2) He Himself gives them opportunities to lose whatever few virtues they have left by doing more sins
3) He Himself comes in the form of the Destroyer (invader) to cut them down
4) He Himself sends them back down into lower lifeforms - and who knows who many thousands of years they will spend in transmigration, until they collect enough good deeds again and He himself decides to give them another chance.
 
 
This line from Guru Nanak Dev Ji shows how fortunate we all are that we are in a position to collect as many virtues as possible and finish our soul's journey.  It also explains why Baba Ji has always said that the ones who slander and then go on to slander Saints had that written as their destiny from before they were even born.  Due to all the sins they have accumulated in their previous lives and in the past of this life, God's command for them was to lose all their virtues and ultimately to be destroyed.
 
That is all I wanted to share with Guru's blessing, please forgive us for mistakes, but it shows how everything comes from God and virtues are the key on this path.  Lacking them we are destroyed, collecting them we become Dhan Dhan (blessed blessed).
 
For information , here is the full verse and little bit of history behind the verse - it is one of four verses by guru Nanak Dev Ji written about the invasion of Punjab by the Mughal Babar (collectively known as Babarbani).
 
"During the end of Guru Nanak's last journey Mughal invader Babar attacked Aimnabad (Saidpur). His troops slaughtered thousands of innocent civilians. Women and children were made captives and all their property looted.
 
In spite of his destructive role Babar is seen by Guru Nanak to have been an unwitting instrument of the divine Will. Because the Lodhi's had violated God's laws, they had to pay the penalty. Babar descended from Kabul as God's chosen agent, demonstrating the absolute authority of God and the retribution which must follow defiance of His laws. Guru Nanak's commentary on the events which he actually witnessed thus becomes a part of the same universal message. God is absolute and no man may disobey. His commands with impunity. Obey Him and receive freedom. Disobey him and the result must inevitably be retribution, a dire reckoning which brings suffering in this present life and continued transmigration in the hereafter."    http://www.allaboutsikhs.com/historical-events/historical-sikh-events-the-invasion-of-babar-1525-ad.html

Re: Sodarshan chakra kriya & powers

 
QN FROM expertofexpert:
 
Hi, i was wondering if anybody knows what siddhis does Sodarshan chakra kriya bestows. i would really like to know. i am doing this kriya especially because it is a powerful subconcious cleaner, still i would like to know what siddhis will i attain.:)
REPLY FROM Karta Purkh S Khalsa:

The best siddhi of all, power over the self!
 
REPLY FROM expertofexpert:

,,The best siddhi of all, power over the self!''
what really does this means:)
and i heard that there are 18 ocult powers that it bestows:)
still the one to have power over myself sounds great:)

REPLY FROM HARJIT:
 
Guru Gobind Singh Ji wrote "ridh sidh Sabh Moh Ha" meaning that these occult powers are nothing more than attachments.
According to Bhai Gurdas Ji , a blessed soul of the time of the earlier Gurus, Guru Nanak Dev Ji had a deep conversation with the Sidhs - Yogi Masters of these Powers and they showed him things like flying, turning invisble, walking on water and so on just to impress the "boy" Nanak.  The called him "boy" because they thought he was very young (compared to the very old age - another power) and therefore impressionable.   They then asked Guru Nanak Dev Ji to show them his powers.  Guru Nanak Dev Ji replied that even if he could move heaven and earth, it would still be nothing more than the passing of the clouds and without SATNAAM (God) there is nothing.
 
"O respected Nath(Head Man)! Please listen to the truth that I utter. 
Without SATNAAM I have no other miracle.
I may wear the clothes of fire and build my house in the Himalayas .
I may eat the iron and make Earth move to my orders.
I may expand myself so much that I could push the Earth.
I may weigh the Earth and the sky against few grams of weight.
I may have so much power that I push aside anybody just by saying so.
But without SATNAAM, all these powers are momentary like the Shadow of the clouds."
 
(Bhai Gurdas Ji Var 1)

Then the holy men tried to use their Supernatural powers (Sidhees) again but they found they had all been taken away by God. They fell at the Guru's feet in humility and humbly asked to be blessed with the greatest gift of Naam - SatNaam.   While there is EGO we chase after desires, including desires for occult powers.  when there is no ego, then all that is left is the Truth - SAT NAAM.   Ask yourself, what would you rather have - all the created powers, or the Creator?
 


"I bow before the God-Guru who announced the SATNAAM mantra."

Chat with shweta sharma about living in the moment




10:22 shweta: satnaam jee
  aapke charno mein mujh papi ka pranaam
 me: satnaam dearest beloeved of the guru, sister Shweta ji,
  please accept our dandauth at your feet
10:24 thankyou for sharing your expereince the other day, and thanks to Dassan Das ji for giving you so many blessings and bowing his head at your feet too,
  its not an easy path, there are lots of things ahead of us on this path,
  how are you ji?
 shweta: i m f9 jee
  i know
  its not easy
10:25 how r u jee
  ?
 me: with guru ji's kindness am gowing forward i think!
10:26 shweta: yes u r jee
 me: although ego always comes back and listening to kirtan this morning made m realise why the gurus and bhagats are always asking for "KIRPA"
10:27 shweta: yes jee
 me: we would think they were the Gurus and bhagats, they were one with God, with the Divine Light, so why do they sing for "KIRPA"
 shweta: this ego is major problem
10:28 me: yes , ego always comes back, and that is why Dassan Das ji and also the kirtan verses say we need to keep praying for Gurprasad,
  always stay humble and keep talking to God-guru and ask for more naam, more seva and more bhagti
10:29 and as soon as we recognise ego or 5 thieves coming inside us, then right away put our hands together(mentally if not physically) and pray to god-guru that ego has come back and we dont want to live with it any more, not for a moment not for a minute not at all, please save us satguru ji
10:30 please give us the love of your lotus feet in our heart
 shweta: sat vachan jee
 me: always and forever keep us as a servant, a slave of the whole creation,
10:31 shweta: gurujee
  one thing cum in my mind
 me: and may i stop trying to control things and stop trying to make things happen in my life and to finally accept the SAT NAAM KARTA PURAKH is th only DO-ER.
  yes ji,
 shweta: that whatever i suffer is not the end
  its only a phase
  i have to suffer much more
10:32 me: that is right, it is only a chapter in the story of your life.
 shweta: may be its my negative thinking
  hmm
 me: i dont know about the future, and neither do you or any of us really
  so there is no point thinking about what the future holds for us
10:33 shweta: ya dats true
  only GOD knows everything
 me: and also the past has gone, it cant be changed, whatever happened has happened and it was all as it had to be - HUKAM.
  so no point dwelling in the past
  about what could havebeen if things were different
  past and future thoughts eat the mind away
10:34 shweta: yes
  jee
 me: and everyone gets trapped in those thoughts without realising
  all we have to do is to stay in the present
  all we have to do is get through this moment truthfully
 shweta: ofcourse jee u r right
10:35 me: if we take care of the present, each moment, then the hours, days, weeks and months take care of themselves
  then your whole life becomes truthful
  then we go beyond suffering and pleasure
  because we all have to reap our karma
10:36 so good and bad events will always happen in our lives
  look at the lives of the gurus and even jesus , it wasnt easy
  but the difference between the ones who have naam in their heart and the ones who dont, is that with naam our mind stays stable through all events
10:37 naam keeps our mind rooted in the divine light
  then baba ji says that no matter what happens "ALL IS JOY"
  because you only see god in everything
10:38 in the beginning thought suffering is the remedy - dukh daru.
  because sukh become the rog(disease
 shweta: guru jee i m sorry but i have to go
  actually one student is there
 me: thankyou ji,
  dust of your feet
10:39 shweta: ya
  thank u jee
  mujhe pe aapki kirpa ke liye
  thanks a lot jee
10:40 bye jee

 taranjeet: sada tuhaade charne te ho sada matha jee
09:11 plz forgive us we moorakh has to confess today we went to that dog in hospital and there by ur grace we purchased suome gloucose drip and other medicines for her , but one thing was left "sanitizing spray to apply on small incursion wound caused for driping glouse and we asked the compunder he told us u purchase it afterwards then after all driping & all we went to VET she told us purchase that spray , we foll in maya said that we have applied bandage on her wound so seems nt neccessary and sarted thinking that she may be getting commision for all purchases so she is pressing us to buy that unneccessary product but actually it was our ego and mind telling us so please forgive this manmukh for so satnaam jee mein paapi moorakh aap bakshanhaare jee meri muj se mein nu maare jee
09:12 me: yes, our calculating mind gets in the way of doing good deeds
09:13 thats all you have to do, is to realise what the mind is upto, and only ask "where are those thoughts coming from within us?"
 taranjeet: we will go in evening and purchase that My lord jus do not let this paapi forget u
 me: we shouldnt even try to guess what other people are thinking or doing, we dont really know do we?
09:14 taranjeet: yes my love
 me: all we have to do is good deeds, other people will reap what they sow.
 taranjeet: thanks for ur clearing my love this chuda doesnt works at all
  plz aap karoo sambhaal
 me: so as long as we know we tried our best, and we did what felt right within us that is all we can do, isnt it?
09:15 because whatever we know and think, god inside us also knows and hears that.
09:16 So if we were resistant to buy the spray because it was hurting us to spend more money, than that is lobh thief inside us.
  But our ego mind will always blame the other person for beng greedy - wanting more commission!
 taranjeet: cut cut haume maare aap apan nistaare hoon taan moorakh sad hee haare aya dwaar toohare
 me: So we end up pointing the finger at the other, insteaad of inside!!!
09:17 hum nahee chunga buraa nahee koee, pranvaat nanak taray soi
 taranjeet: yes Satguru-pyaare
  please forgive this fool
 me: on this path even if a thief comes to rob us we cant call them bad can we?
 taranjeet: yes my love
 me: we can only call bad the lobh and moh for maya inside us that doesnt want our things to be stolen
09:18 taranjeet: we cant call them bad i am bad
  that is y sad thought from head taahin heart dead
 me: and then when we realise that then we can only touch their feet and thank them for showing us how much lobh and moh of maya we still ahve inside us
09:19 we cant even call ourself bad!!
 taranjeet: yes it is truth satnaam jee
 me: our soul is god, just as other peoples soul are god as well, so no one not even ourself is bad
  but our actions and other peoples actions can be bad
09:20 remember the difference, it is very important
  the criminal is not bad, the crime he did was bad
  the child is not bad, the mischief they did was bad
09:21 taranjeet: yes satnaam jee
 me: it is important to always love the god in the other person and in ourself, but confess the bad action and punish it accordingly
09:22 it is subtle difference, but it makes all the difference
  my friend taught prisoners in a prison about positive thniking and so on
  she asked them what kind of things did your parents say to you when you grew up?
09:23 and they said there parents called them very bad things like "you'll grow up to be a criminal" or "they should have thrown you out with the afterbirth (placenta)"
09:24 taranjeet: sat-bachan satnaam jee
 me: all these life, these children were told by parents and society they were bad, not worthy of love, useless, terrible people
  and it destroyed the inner child, and they started believing it, that they were bad and so that is what they became and ended up doing crimes and in prison
  do you get it?
09:26 taranjeet: yes all is good and all is God
 me: if we tell children , even when they are naughty, that we love them very much, but we dont love their bad action. so for the bad action they have to make up for it by losing some tv time, or not getting a treat, then the child understands they are loved but they need to behave well.
  in the same way we need to talk to our own mind
  it is like that naughty child,
09:27 taranjeet: yes hw to punish mind oh forever kind
 me: it can thnik bad thngs and act upon them, so we say we love you god and guru, we love you our soul, but o my mind you have done x.y and z actionsunder the influence of maya, so we confess these thoughts and deeds and ask for forgiveness from god-guru-Snagat, then we forgive ourself too and dont think about it again
09:28 just carry on remembing the love within, the soul that is always shining
  our soul is like the eternal sunshine inside our heart
 taranjeet: thanks my love ur blessing is making us smile in ur love
 me: but our bad deeds and thoughts become the karma clouds that block the sun
09:29 we just have to move the karma clouds out of the way with gurprasad, and once they have gone we dont think about them again, we only feel the sunshine again
 taranjeet: u r my love u r my love u r my love
  allah malik
09:30 thanks for ur pure sweet words
 me: God always loves us, God always is shining bright inside us, we just forget that and let our thoughts go into maya mind, but we can scoop up all those maya mind thoughts and throw them aside
  and feel the sunhsine again
  its all gods grace
09:31 taranjeet: tu mera mein tera tu mera mein tera tu mera mein tera tu mera mein tera tu mera mein tera tu mera mein tera
 me: feeling guilty and bad after doing bad deeds and thoughts is only helpful if it makes us remorseful and makes us seek out forgiveness and makes us resolve to be a better person
  still feeling bad and guilty after gaining forgiveness from god -guru is no good for health or mind and blocks our spiritual progress
09:32 taranjeet: plz give resolve to paapi plz give resolve to paapi
 me: You are doing great, just remember "be kind to your mind"
09:33 sometimes we have to speak nicely to the mind, like mata ji (baba ji's wife) said to me once she dealt with haumai like this "Dear haumai you have been in control of my whole life, but now i need you to go as now there is only room for Satnaam."
09:34 taranjeet: sometime we get this thing satnaam jee when we are doing such thing that this is also HUKUm like while driving away frm VEt we thought of going back but this but we got that this is also hukum
  ok
  that cleared a lot
09:35 me: yes, that is fine, if it felt right to you not to buy the spray that was the hukum.
  But try not to think about what the other person was thinking eg they were after more commission. Its not for us to judge or think about others, thats all.
  they will reap what they sow.
09:36 taranjeet: yes thats right My love knight
 me: I find it really helpful now to try and think of something positive about everyone
 taranjeet: u are height of height in right
  love is ur diet
09:37 make us ur kite and get along no fight rope is tight
 me: because if i keep focusing on their begative points (which may or may not to be true, as i am just thinking they are like that, and i dont really know, like you didnt really know if the vet was after more commisiion) then it makes my mind more negative
 taranjeet: yes my love jee
  u are sat jee
 me: so whoever i meet, try and change the negative thought to something positive
09:38 taranjeet: God bless u with beyant love
 me: eg the vet is dhan dhan, they trianed for so many years, they have the knowledge and they help so many of gods creatures, they are doing a great job and I am thankful for the good they do and have done.
 taranjeet: yes my love
09:39 sat-bachan
 me: And rather than think negative , our job is to pray for them, "deat satguru ji , please also bless this vet with good thoughts and gurus wisdom and to get out of 5 thieves."
  thats all, we leave with positive thoughts and leave a blessing for their future life.
  rather than bringing any negativity about them inside us
 taranjeet: yes my satnaam u are the blissful one My God
 me: because our mind becomes whatever it focuses on
 taranjeet: thanks thanks thanks thanks athanks
09:40 me: if it sees negative all around it becomes rogee(diseases)
  but if it sees only satguru in every heart then it becomes God - Jyot.
 taranjeet: God bless u My Love this lowly wants to reach u let it be slowly
09:41 me: and we are not in a position to judge anyone else, only god-guru can do that.
 taranjeet: yes satnaam jee
 me: That is why we can only judge our own actions against hte benchmark of Truth (gurbani & gurmat & gurus words).
09:42 But god-guru can judge everyone in the world and that is why gurbani can say "jo jo deesay so so rogee, rog rehat mera satguru jogee"
 taranjeet: u are jogee mein moorakh maya da roogi
09:43 dhan dhan harjeet jee dhan dhan harjeet jee dhan dhan harjeet jee dhan dhan harjeet jee dhan dhan harjeet jee dhan dhan harjeet jee
 me: i am rogee too, there is nothing good about me, i forget Satnaam all the time, but luckily He does not forget me because he gives me sangat of you, dassan das ji, baba ji, sant sangat too.
09:44 taranjeet: u are love kind blessed Kamal of kamlapati satnaam
 me: ok ji, thankyou for your seva dn your time.dhan dhan sukhee raho ji, send our love and blessings to shweta ji too.
09:45 taranjeet: we are thankful to u in merer words do not knw hw to thank u really mere mitar pyare raam dass satnaam
  yes satnaam jee thanks for taking time for this bistha ka kidaa
  God bless u alwys with sukh sukh sukh
  sada karoo prem dee bhuk bhuk bhuk
 me: satnaam ji ka khalsa satnaam ji kee fateh!!
09:46 taranjeet: give our lowly prem to ur children and mata jee

Forgetting your purpose

ik onkar satnaam satgurprasad.
 
The worst thing a doctor can do is to murder, rather than heal, because he hates his patients.
The worst thing a judge can do is lie under oath, to save his reputation.
And the worst thing God-person can do is to live under maya, for the sake of making money.
 
On this spiritual path, it can become very easy to forget why we entered upon it, and very easy to look like a relgious person on the outside,
but just being driven by maya on the inside.  Then that is our downfall.  May Satguru Baba ji saves me every moment of every day from falling into maya and forgetting Him.

Dealing with doubts about your Guru

QUESTION:

I was always very interested in Yogi Bhajan because of the amazing things I have heard about him from my KY teachers. He seemed to be a great source of spiritual knowledge. In my research in an effort to get as close to his teachings as possible, I came across something concerning however (and I bring this up in only the utmost respect to gather opinions on it).

...

I'm just concerned as I've been practicing KY for a while now and am *loving* it, but I don't know if I could continue to practice something from someone who may have been an abusive cult leader. Any evidence to the contrary or insights would be appreciative, since I'm somewhat heart-broken over this.

Thanks all, and once again I really don't mean any offense and I hope nobody misunderstands my intentions.

REPLY:

Satnaam Sacha Ji,

Please accept our prostration greeting at your holy feet.

you have asked a valid question. I have wasted many years in questions like these. It limits our spiritual progression because it is like driving a car with the handbrake on. With guru's kindness, what I have realised is that your spiritual path is all inside you. You are kind of saying, if Yogi Ji was not a right teacher, then I lose my faith. The real question to ask is always of your own mind. If we first accept that Guru Nanak Dev ji, who met murderers and the worst in society, if Guru himself has said , "I am not good and no one is bad, Nanak has been ferried across praying like this." Then we can try and carve this teaching into our heart as well.

So from now on if we say, no one is bad, only me. Then we have to point the finger inwards. What is the root cause of this question? And you will find it is doubts. In Guru's word wisdom (gurbani) this is called Dubidha. Guru Arjun Dev ji teaches us that whoever kills their doubts, their duality meaning seeing anything other than GOD in everything, is glorious.

One who kills this is freed of suffering.

How rare is such a person, who kills and casts off duality.

Killing it, he attains Raja Yoga, the Yoga of meditation and success. 1Pause

("jo eis maarae this kaa dhukh jaaee")

(" aisaa koe jo dhubidhhaa maar gavaavai")

("eisehi maar raaj jog kamaavai") 1rahau") SGGS 237

When we realise that doubts are our enemy and no one else, and especially not our spiritual teacher, then we can fight the correct enemy. True Faith, True Love and True devotion (Sacha vishwaas, sachee preet, shacha shardaa) in our Guru is our lifeline on the spiritual path. God is abstract, so He comes to us in a personal form in the heart of the saint. All we have to do is build our love, devotion and faith and pray to keep our head(ego) under the feet of God-Guru. Everyday we have to kill the doubts until there is 100% love only. Then that expands into super-love for Infinite God. But we have to beat our own mind first and trust and believe in the Guru God has sent us.

As said in another email, every single Guru, saint, devoteee has to go through the stage of slander. This includes you and also same thing happened to Yogi Ji too. The whole world including their family and friends, who are slaves of maya will try and pull down the onewho sets off on the path of Truth. Gurbani says that the saint becomes known throughout the world. Hence, their slander will also be worldwide and passionate. But, we who are on a spiritual path, are not to JUDGE even a single creation of God as being bad. Baba Ji said that while we choose to spend our life judging others we too will be judged, by Dharam Raj - Divine Judge at the end of our life. Only that one is not judged who completes their spiritual journey, who has gone past maya and her slaves who judge and slander. Only the one who has merged into the Truth is not judged. That one sees God in all. As Yogi Ji said, "If you cant see God in all, you cant see God at all."

Finally, Baba Ji also explained to us, even if your Guru is a fake, you should be such a devotee that your love saves the fake ones too. For example, devotee Dhanna Ji was a simple farmer who was desparate for God. He went to the holiest peson he knew - a Hindu Priest (Brahmin) who worshipped a rock. To fob Deotee Dhannaa ji off he gave him any old rock to worship and told him He would be blessed with god's vison. However, he fully knew that it wouldn't work, but he didn't care. Devotee Dhanna ji had so much faith in the words of his new Guru, that he took that rock and focused all his love and devotion on it, to the point he said to the One all prevading Ik Oankar, show yourself or I will starve to death. Then he was blessed with God's vision internally. This is as much of the story that is commonly told. But, Baba Ji also told us what happened next. Devotee Dhanna ji, who had completed his spiritual journey and was so full of love and now knew the Truth of his fake Guru. He prayed to God to also save His Guru too with no thoughts of punishing the fake Guru.

So this whole spiritual journey comes down to how much you conquor your own doubts through your true love, true faith and true devotion for your Guru regardless of what they are. It only matters what you are and how big your heart is.

Chat with S - Does love exists on earth?

11:16 s: i have one question in my mind
 i want to know the answer
11:17 does love exists on earth?
  i means between girl n boy?
11:18 i saw many people arround me falling in love with sum one but i think according to guru ji love is all maya
  bcoz thats not true dats only our attraction n we have to watch everyone with same eye
 me: baba ji says that God is Love, and the closest God comes to entering the Earth is in a heart full of Love.
11:19 s: that is the only message of GOD
  then why people marry sumone or say that they r in love with sumone
  ?
 me: There is a difference between desires and attractions which are due to our karma making us spend time with someone, and Love which is desireless.
11:20 Baba ji said that if it is love it is selfless, you would give everything for the other, you would die for them and expect nothing in return.
  But but most people have is selfish love, so it is actually just moh (attachment thief).
11:21 Because they want to be with the other person because it makes them feel good,
  they want to then POSSESS the other person and get jealous if the other talks to someone else,
11:22 they want to CONTROL the other person by marrying them and getting them to commit to them, they do this out of fear of being left alone, fear of being hurt..so it is all selfish
11:23 The inital moment they may have had love and it was spontaneous, meaning it just happenned, and that is GOD in their heart, but when they make it selfish, possessive, controlling, it is part of MOH-MAYA. Then it becomes a trap just to play out karma with the other person.
11:25 A Saint, A Guru is the one who in LOVE with God in every heart, and has sacrificed everything to that God and expects nothing from anyone, but gives everything, the biggest gift is the gift of NAAM. That is the difference in saint and a worldly ersons love. One GIVES everything, the other WANTS everything.
  Understand?
 s: yes jee
11:26 but i have one more question
 me: ok
11:27 s: one day i read in satnaam forum that u were fall in love with a gal in ur life but u wont marry her bcoz GOD's hukum so
11:28 s: then i want to know that how u call her ur love bcoz according to babaji every person is same we all are one so how u committed to her, specially her?
but that answer is very important for me
 
s: bcoz when anyone propose me i get confused
  all r same
11:30 so y i committed to him
  ?
11:31 me: in that situation I think the person wanted to marry the other, but they said no cause of parents, so the person got upset cause she didnt get what she wanted. So she needed to accept the Hukam to come to peace, and that the time they were attracted to each other was as per their karma, and it has come to an end as all things do.
11:32 s: thanx a lot jeee
  thank you very much jee
  thats my biggest confusion
  
thank you jee
 me: baba ji said we have karma to clear before we can go to God.
  So we cannot avoid living with people and avoid relationships and attractions and marriage and children. Because its all written in our karma that these people will come into our life and we have to repay our dues.
11:34 We cannot avoid it, because KARMA OVERRULES EVERYTHING.
  Even though you see all as one, still one day God will make you attracted to someone and get you married and have children if thats your karma.
  So that is not bad.
11:35 what is bad is when we forget God and get caught up in the 5 thieves, then we die spiritually.
  And that is why there are so many bad relationships, because they are al selfish, rather than selfless.
11:36 Baba ji said make your own family into sachkhand (truthful) living.
  See your wife and family as your sat sangat,
  wipe their shoes, cook for them, serve them as you'd serve your guru, and do satnaam with love in your heart and expect nothing inreturn.
11:37 then that is selfless living.
 s: thats great!!
 me: so whilst you are living out your karma, you are also going into true love of God.
  and you will find your wife, your children and family all cool down over time and start becoming truhful and helpful too.
11:38 it all starts with the seed of satnaam placed by guru;s grace in your heart,
11:39 then when you are more pure and so is your wife then you expereince higher love, you have spiritual expereinces and help each other to reach God, you become sat sangat for each other.
11:40 Even sex which the world sees as bad or pleasurable, even that becomes a truhful act because your remember satnaam at that time too. And realise sex and reproduction is not bad, it is the tmeple of god because that is where he creates new life, that is why He is KARTA PURAKH - creator being.
11:41 So now your mind is sync with your part in nature - to find a partner, to reproduce to serve one and all with the highest love in your heart.
  The best thng about falling in love with somone is that it gives you a glimpse of what LOVE for GOd is like.
11:42 Love is not bad, it is the selfish desires we wrap it up in that messes peoples minds up.
  Thats all ji,
