Hi
I wont say i am new to sikhi ,say i have been doing path etc for last 2-3 years.I learned punjabi on my own . So when i started doing path of various banis , they were bit alien to me as i could read punjabi but since it was not the language in which i thought or communicated.
I mean to say that since like i didnot grow up speaking punjabi, just the fact i can read punjabi doesnt make me have great vocab as result i have yet to fully complete some of the banis. Reason is that i need to know the meaning of each line .
Simply speaking my knowledge of gurbani is limited.
I want to know is it possible that situation in your present life life karam of your previous life.I remember watching sant maskeen ji's daily program. He once said ( i dont remember exact words but mine are more or less similar) something about sanskar. Concept was ( for example) if i in last life i happend to be a man who was very found of sex and liqour but say some how i started getting involved towards gurbani. My values start changing but not totally and i die. I am born again in this current life. Maskeen Ji said i would continue my spiritual journey from the same point i.e. of a person who was on the path towards evolving yet had some wrong habits say of sex and drinking.
So as per Maskeen ji in this life based on my past sanskar and karam . In this life i would be a person who is already spiritually awake yet has fondness for sex and drinking. What i do in this life will affect my future. So in this life if i am able to over come my fondness for sex but not drinking than in next life i would be born as a person who will be spiritually awake but have a weakness for drinking.
Is this right?
Reason i am asking everyone is because first of all i have not read all banis and SGGS( even if i have i am not yet capable of understanding the real meaning).
Secondly it is my belief whatever question we as humans have , all answers lie in SGGS and it is for us to search and understand.
Thirdly i think SGGS is one of the greatest source of knowledge and has been written inh such a way that we as humans donot need help of any other human being to find answers our problems. I dont mean we donot need sadh sangat, yes we need but SGGS is written a way that if some how we donot have sadh sangat yet our spiritual needs are answered. Sadh Sangat as stated in SGGS is as result one’s good bhag or destiny. I have noticed generally that when sangat comes in contact of highly spiritual person they tend appreciate that person a lot. It is good but they tend over do it so much that they are always appreciating that person, Sant ji great , Baba ji is great . They tend to forget that Babaji or Sant ji no matter how great is there for us to appreciate SGGS and not other way round.
Simply point is that SGGS is the key and sadh sangat is way to appreciate it, know more about it but in end all your answers are in SGGS.
Sorry if I have said something that has hurt anyone.
