Naam is the lord himself in the form of primal or creative power. It is His means of projecting Himself as creation. It is love truth consciousness and bliss. Naam is in and behind all things and is the motion, the life and the soul of all things, just as the motion and life of a puppet are given to it by unseen strings. the creative current of God is called His Naam, because it represents the first creative division as the One sets out to become the multiplicity of the creation. Yet the oneness of God is never tainted it remains one. this is one of the main paradoxes of mysticism, which can only be resolved or realized by a direct mystical experience. Naam is the unique prinicpal of all existence and the sole means of salvation. It is the anhad bani of sikhs and the silent whisper of the sufis. Mystics often attempt to express their love and longing for Naam:

O Beloved, I am enamoured of your Naam

through the practise of your Naam,

I am told that souls, though as heavy as stones,

can float with ease to the opposite shore

My master gave me this powerful and mighty Naam

and i recognized my true self.

-Mirabai

..could it also be looked at as..

naam..= naa(no) meh(me) so naam is the moment when you are not present as yourself, as a seperate entity, but when 'your conscience' is 'present' in a moment of complete one-ness with everything, absorbed completely into the beauty of waheguru ji, nothing else.

so the constant practice of this, would hopefully lead to a permanent state of this ultimate bliss, (brahmgyaan)

Waheguru. You are such a deep soul.

Yes, I do believe 'constant' practice of NAAM (Waheguru) will lead to a permanent state of bliss. Isn't that our goal though? To merge into the Brahm (God)...and then not just merge but also to keep on going deeper and deeper into him.

Reminds me of 'Suraj Kiran Mile, Jal Ka Jal Huya Raam...'

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
