-----------------------

"We, the Sikhs, had our resurrection en masse at the

Masters word, sung in our ears on the battlefields.

The war gave us the fiery baptism of God's warm blood.

We died. And that is how our master said we should

live. There is no other door to everlasting life but

through death, like this, through love, and obedience

like this. Very little life is in the ego of man; all

is there in the shining sun of his soul. He knew all

about the nature of after-death; He led us on. Our

Guru in communionwith the cosmic processes

concentrated his consciousness on the problem of

making man alive, natural and free."

- Professor Puran Singh
