Guru Nanak Dev Sahib - Born Mukth or Not?


Recommended Posts

Satguru Guru Naanak Dev Ji Maharaaj were 'Paarbrahm Parmeshar' themselves.

The question of being 'mukt' should not arise because they weren't engulfed in anything...no vices, no Karam-chakkar...nothing.

They were born a perfect being.

The 'Mool Mantar' received later in life, was probably simply a matter of when it was supposed to happen. It does not indicate of Guru Ji's imperfection because they had the 'Guru-Jot' right from birth; i.e. they weren't given Gurgaddi as the other Guru Ji were.

They were the avtaar of Akaal Purakh Himself. Hence, they were/are perfect.

The people always follow the world. They never follow anything if they can't relate to it. I think that's why Akaal Purakh comes into human form and maat lok so He could set an example for us to live righteously and practice dharma. Consider Ram who left for an exile. The 10th Guru Nanak sacrificed his whole family when the time came. All the avataars lead such life that it influenced people to follow their foosteps. Guru Nanak Dev Ji's life also shows glimpses on every moment on how to live righteously staying within the Hukam. I heard this Katha by Giani Sant Ji Maskeen that Mohammad Sahib and Guru Nanak Dev Ji fell ill at one point in their lives. The doctors said the same thing. That they have no fever and no illness yet they can't understand why the sickness is there. He later mentioned that Mohammad Sahib would go into a cave and chant Allah Hoo and Guru Nanak Dev Ji chanted WaheGuru. Doing simran, both of them killed their "ego". Giani Ji described that the sickness was the result of both of them chanting to the point where they reached the 4th stage of naam simran called para. When this happens, there is simran that originates from the navel. Basically the whole point is that even though these souls are enlightened and mukt, they still abide by His Hukam so we humans could do the same and have an example to live accordingly. In his Autobiography, Guru Gobind Singh Ji mentions that he is stunned by Akaal Purakh's doings but the thing that astonishes him even more is his own life.

Gurbani and Guru Granth Sahib Ji always mention Akaal Purakh as the alimighty. But its noteworthy that the tuk from Sukhmani Sahib 'Nanak brahmgyani aap parmeshwar' tells us that there is no difference between Akaal Purakh or The Gurus.

Personally when I was an atheist, I thought I could never relate to God because it seemed something so far away. But then I started listening to kathas and in this one katha Giani Thakur Singh Ji said that he knows where at night all the Gurmukhs are at night. I got so anxious and I wanted to know and he proceeded that at night all the Gurmukhs are at Sachkhand. It just hit me like woww. I thought I could never relate to God. Thats another beauty of Sikhism that it is such a practical religion.

    • The Mind is Jyot Saroop (Waheguru), but the mind is under the influence of five evils… Through Naam Simran( Rememberance), the mind will begin to detach from evil, and get back to its original form ( MANN TU JYOT SAROOP HEH)… Until the mind breaks free from the five evils, one will go through the cycle of paap and punn….which leads to Karma… Naam Simran destroys past karma, and prevents new karma coming into fruition… I did this, I did that… This non realisation of the Jyot Saroop gives rise to paap and Punn, which in turn gives birth to suffering and misery…
    • 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!!
