Without hesitation

Satnaam

Without hesitation.    This phrase has been in our mind for the last few days.  Baba gives without hesitation.  Last year at Ufton  court we thought it would be too expensive to hire coaches for the whole Sangat to come to our place in Milton Keynes.  Thankfully we overcame our own wisdom when a penji told us off jokingly that we are only inviting guru but not others? So we requested baba ji to come and for sangat to come as well.  Still hesitating in our mind about the expense of coaches (not working last year, savings were low, money worries were high).   Right away baba ji, with love in their eyes, handed over hundreds of pounds for the coaches.   Again we hesitated to take it, but mata ji nodded at us.     

We learned due to our own fears of "what will happen to us if we give money to others"  we hesitate in doing good deeds of giving.   That is where we lack faith in our guru to take care of where the next money or food is coming from.  That is why we lose the moment.  

Baba ji says just keep our deeds good, truthful, sat, in the moment.  We should never hesitate to do good right now even if our fears are trying to make us hesitate.  When we have satnaam satguru we should have complete faith and no fear to follow their divine wisdom.   

Baba ji said a few weeks ago, that a dying man was told by the doctors his cancer was gone too far and would kill him.  He said, "I want to go back to nature like my ancestors (native Indians).  He lived in the forest for months and lived off the nut, berries, fresh water,  whatever nature taught him.   He came out cancer free.    We said to baba ji,  "but nature can also destroy a person in the wild."   Baba ji replied, "but nature wont do that to you."

So it made us realise when we are in logic we have fears.   Eg if we go to nature we will die,  if we give away money we will be broke. But we forget we are not like others.  We have the gurparsaad, we have God guru's grace with us.  And we should have full faith in it at all times.    

Baba ji said to us before we left sangat a few weeks ago,  "Preeto, no more fears and  insecurities."   this has really helped us. We have become so aware that every decision we take is based on fear of the possible negative future consequence of what we are doing.  So we have taken a step to take a contract job as per guru's blessings but when our fears come of,  "what if we have no job after 6 months?" or "what if we don't do well and they sack us after a week?"  We stop those thoughts now,  because we have faith in satguru's blessings upon us.  

We cant lose this moment in fears and worries and insecurities and anxieties, when we should have full faith in the gurparsaad, God's graceful hand upon our head. Only the ones without gurparsaad and not doing simran should worry. God bless all to do good deeds without hesitation.

No one as mean as me

There is no one as kind as my satguru, there is no one as mean as me.  

He showers me in diamonds of satnaam, but I roll around in the mud like a pig.  

He has open arms to welcome me but I turn away like a dog chasing other dogs.   

He hugs me and wipes away my tears but I run back to the cause of my pain.  

He has full faith in me, but I have fears and doubts about him.

He is selfless doing only good for me, but I don't see it as good and blame and complain.  

He lives in the light and I under the rock of the mind.   He can see my rock but I can't see his light.    

Fears are my downfall into the dark well, full faith is the rope to pull me out.   

Trust is bandagi, bandagi is waging war against maya. Maya traps us when have desire, want nothing, fear nothing, give everything, baba ji make us like you, become God. 

Satnaam satnaam satnaam.

Dandauth

India Sangat in Dec 2015

Satnaam ji Dandauth bandhna ji

Please email dassandass3@gmail.com for details and blessings to attend  India Sangat in patiala, Ludhiana and Amritsar in Dec.

Dassan dass ji said never to think about obstacles stopping us. Just have the thirst and devotion to attend sangat, pray for it like gurbani says "even if it snows I will go to see my guru."  

Baba ji said once "even if my leg was broken and gave me pain to stop me going to sangat, I would tell my leg 'I will cut you up and throw you in the fire'  and go to Sangat."     

We have to conquer the excuses of the mind and body,    then God helps us to get to the guru.  We pray everyday for guru sangat like this "gurdev sangat prabh Mel kar kirpa, hum moor papee jit lag taraa. Gurdev satgur parbrahm parmesar gurdev nanak Har namaskaaraa."    Guru Arjun Dev ji is saying "O Lord give me sangat of the divine Guru so that a foolish sinner like me can be saved.   The divine Guru is the Truth guru,  the supreme god, nanak bows forever to God (in) the divine Guru.

Last year when some sangat missed coming to Sangat because of worldly reasons,  dassan dass ji said we should never miss these golden opportunities,  the chance to meet your guru comes after many,  many lifetimes and is by great good destiny.   

"Bhaag hoa gur sant milaaiaa, prabh abinasee ghar meh paaia. By great good fortune I met the God guru as the sant. Then the indestructible Lord was realised inside." 

So we need the thirst, the hunger, the pain of separation should be so strong that we are praying everyday like a desperate soul to meet their guru. And when the chance comes nothing should stop us.  God helps us when we are determined.

Once when were asking baba ji  if it's OK for us to just stay at home and do simran because we where tired of the arguments from our wife to stop us every week, baba ji just said, "there is nothing like sangat."       And we just took courage and told our family "we can never leave our guru (but we can leave you)."  After that the arguments stop because they know they can't win. So have the same attitude to any obstacles you mind, body or family are outing infront of you.
