    See I disagree there. When we start looking at the writings of Guru ji as in the Dasam Granth and Zafarnama, we see symbolism and subtle allusion used heavily therein. I mean one of the most blatant examples is the use of the Chandi narrative. Look at the whole Khalsa culture - it is ram packed with symbolism too (as well as heavily practical aspects!) 

    It seems out of character for Guru ji not to give deep thought to these things from what I can gather???? 

     

    In regards to the moon, Guru Nanak Ji has been described as the moon and is used in Guru Granth Sahib Ji a lot, it represents bringing light into the darkness, spiritually.

    fluid rich foods are super important as dehydrated bodies are prone to disease , brain fog, muscle weakness etc. read the book 'quench' to understand how to get superhydrated without drinking water by the gallon and running risk of dying from overdilution of tissues salts in bloodstream.

    "Who understands, and knows this?"

    You've read that wrong, bro. They haven't contradicted themselves or made a blanket statement that everyone is ignorant of their existence.

    It's a rhetorical question verging on a lament commonly used in Punjabi compositions. You've heard of the phrase, "Kaun jaane?" accompanied by a throwing up of the hands at the enormity of the situation? It's something vaguely on those lines. It's not a literal statement; it's a device employed for exaggeration.

    Although in this particular question, "Who knows and understands this?" places the emphasis on US, the sangat, and asks which of US is cognisant of whether we realise not only that we are the drop, but also that we should, one day, merge with the ocean. Implicitly, whoever realises this truth is on the road to salvation; those who don't, I presume, will remain in ignorance.

    Its not that we are ignorant or our existence,  we are ignorant of everything is Vaheguru. But vail of maya is such a distraction,  most people think Vaheguru is elsewhere but is everywhere and everything. So you can not be separate from the ocean, we just don't know we are in the ocean.
