The Lights Immortal - The King Of Kings - Part Ii

[Consciousness]

Guru, the great king, while telling the world about his objective, proclaims that I have been sent in the world for this very purpose; I have no enmity towards anyone; I love all; don’t think that I come assuming the airs of God in the world. That Primal Lord is unreachable, unknowable. He is in the form of unity and I am a slave of His. He exists in His fullness in all; He exists as ever-burning flame in everyone. I am His slave. Let no doubt enter your minds. Just think that I have put on a human form in order to carry out the order of That Primal Lord. I am to watch the drama of the world and my task lies in victory of truth and defeat of falsehood. He proclaims -

On this account God sent me

Then I took birth and came into the world;

As He spoke to me so I speak to men.

I bear no enmity towards anyone.

All who call me Supreme Being

Recognize me as God’s servant only.

Have no doubt whatever of this, really

I am the slave of the Supreme Being.

And have come to watch the world drama playing.

I tell the world what God told me,

And through fear of mortals not silent be.

Shall fall into the pit of hell, crying.

Thus in order to do this task I have assumed a human form. My mission will proceed in two ways. With love and affection, teaching detachment, meditation and knowledge, I’ll end the darkness from the mind of man and he will be made aware that he is not body, he is not mind, he is not intellect, nor is he just a creature, he is a unit of God; he is the ever-burning flame of the self same soul. In short, man will be taught the spiritual recognition of the self. The body which has got the incurable disease of ignorance and evils and which is in the grip of deep darkness of ignorance, will be made to fight on the world stage and sent to assume a new body. So do not think that I will do something inspired by the example of some previous religion. Keeping myself above all sects and creeds, I will accomplish the task assigned to me by God impartially. Telling about himself he proclaims -

I do not hesitate in any way,

The message of God to convey.

Without bowing to any garb or creed

Of God’s Name on this earth, I sow the seed.

Neither idol worship nor wearing holy garb do I

expound.

Through attaining the highest Truth, and singing

God’s glory will be found.

I will neither grow long knots of hair

Nor any religious marks on my arms bear.

A life devoted to serving God is all for which I

long.

I remember His Name, my only Eternal Friend;

No other do I repeat, nor any other law do I

defend,

In Your Name permanently dyed

I will remain free from vanity and pride.

In Your meditation by being absorbed

Innumerable sins will be washed.

With Your true nature now being one

I will not expect any other gifts given.

All pain and misery go away

Remembering Your Name all the way.

Catching hold of the wicked and the vicious, I’ll scatter them, too; I’ll make them follow the path of righteousness also; and I will tear up wickedness which has its roots in darkness. In this way accepting a very big responsibility, Respected Guru Gobind Singh Ji, the great king, appeared in the world. If we look at his life carefully, we can easily understand all the things mentioned above. He gave shape and form to such a society in the world which is pure through and through. It did not mislead, it was unadulterated. He said that to enjoy the essence of the spiritual self after having recognized it, to melt one’s existence in that spiritual self and to live a life of truth, this will constitute the visible form of the pure life (life of the Khalsa Panth) and so great will its glory be that even gods and goddesses will not be able to know it. The chief gods of Heaven will long for the company of the Khalsa.

Their way of life the sole Name of God.

They find peace in singing praises of the Lord.

To them friends and enemies are alike, brother,

And other than their God they know not another.

Millions upon millions of sins they wash.

They are removers of sufferings, givers of life.

Heroic warriors, men of their word,

Even Maya (illusion) by saints was deceived.

The gods and angels long for their company.

Their blessed glimpse never fruitless be.

Serving them always bears fruit.

Nanak with hands folded prays,

O Lord, storehouse of virtues, bless me with

saints' service.
