Guru Nanak/God

So you are saying Maya is a completely different entity to God?

Just say If God is the creator of all and maya is bad, why did God create maya in the first place?

God seems to be on an ego trip, God wants us to praise him and if don't you will be punished (re-carnation, going to hell and other beliefs regarding punishment).

Everything is a huge contradiction.

i am not saying all this read gurbani you will find the same in gurbani... when we start putting points together we lost because gurbani says we could never understand gods game we can only love god why love god? because he is our resting place he is the ONLY ONE.. the is where we came from thats where we belong... its not contradiction!! its gods game that you and i cant understand!! our job is to read bani and love bani so we find peace

this explains it better

Dear brother, some questions can be answered by God alone, so lets us reach and ask Him. But then as the wise ones have said, that would be like a handfull of salt saying, I am going to enter the sea to see its depth. I think it is not difficult to imagine what happened then. The handfull of salt got dissolved and merged in the sea. The same would happen with our souls. Only those meet Him(through love and devotion), whom He wants....And meeting Him means unlimited bliss, happiness, peace and wisdom....... because that is what He is.... He is an akhoot bhandar of virtues.

Please let us never ever blame God, without first knowing Him actually. How can you say He seems to be on an ego trip? Know it for sure, we are the mughads, moorakhs, the agyanis, He is the only chatur syane.

Does a father needs his child`s praise? No. If the child praises his father it is because he loves and admires him the most, for him his father is the best. In that way we have to view Wahiguru, because He is our true Father, and He is the real Shanshah, Sache Patsha, the Emperor of emperors, the king of kings, as the bani says: Sache Sahiba, kya nahee ghar tere.... He is Bountifull, Merciful, Dayalu, Ooch Apaar Beant Soami.... Matchless.... He is the highest.... beyond comparison... beyond description...Perfect in all ways.... Spotless.... Inmaculate......words fail to sing His glories adecuately.

Excuse me to correct you. It is not your fault, How can a worm like us, know and try to understand the limitless. Having said that, you have to bear in mind, that He does not rewards or punishes, He only loves.

It is our behaviour, our karmas, that take us near Him or keep us away from Him. If He was to punish, which door could we then go, to ask for forgiveness. Please, never ever blame such a sweet and lovely being like Him, if you have even a penny of common sense, or even if you don`t have, but do not do so.

Reincarnation and punishment are due to your own karmas, not to Him. By loving suh a lovely being like Him, our true father, yes , you can get redemption from all these things; so how can you make such baseless accusations.

He is like the Sun, if you try to spit Him, it will fall on you, so be carefull.

A father always loves his child, but if he misbehaves, police will come and catch him, and reform or correct him according to his deeds and needs, his reqiurements. Some are o.k just by feeling shame at the police station, others are kept some days, others months or years... it depends all on that child`s misbehaviour, and as long he shows no signs of repentment, or to improve his bad conduct, he will just prolong his stay in the prison. Police is not bad, the judge is not bad, they are essential for enforcement of law, order and security. It is the infractors (we ), who are bad, by trespassing the laws of nature, so naturally, you have to be corrected, you can not be given a pat on your back.

And still the father is so lovely, that no matter after how much time the child comes back, he awaits him, with his arms wide open, to embrace him, so is our Wahiguru, but exceedingly infinte more gracefull, tender and lovely. He Himself comes to our human level as a Satguru, for that purpose, what else do we need?

So much love and care, and we dare to blame Him? Shame on us!

    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!! 
    • Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi Kalan uses simple Punjabi.
    • Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
