i have been reading that Guru Nanak Dev Ji disappeared for 3 days whilst bathing in the Kali Bein river.

Did Guru Ji meet Akal Purak as stated in the sakhi, if this was so why do Sikhs mention that Guru Nanak Ji was God himself in Sarguna form?

What is the understanding behind this story, and how is to be applied as it can be confusing and contradictory with the two different statements i.e God as separate to Guru Ji, as opposed to Guru Nanak Dev Ji as God in Sarguna form themselves.

Forgive my ignorance, I only wish to remove doubts and obstacles in my mind.

Listen and understand Sukhmani Sahib ji he is nirgun and sargun, he himself is everyone and causes all to happen to his comand, if u look at it from a worldly perspective you will be riddled with doubts , if you look at it from a Gursikhs point you and listen a believe in SGGS ji you would never ask such question or have and doubts.

Rember Waheguru ji is the creator he can do anything he wills and he has not limits or end.

He is not like us human being yet he is everyone of us.

VAHEGURU JI KA KHALSA, VAHEGURU JI KI FATEH

I'll try to use this simplified analogy:

Take an empty glass of water, dip it in the ocean. The ocean is in the glass, the ocean is also in the ocean - they are the same, yet "two". This is the Guru and Akaal Purakh in a simplistic representation - the same ocean, the same light, the same "water", but one has been housed in the human body (glass).

This is also the state of BrahmGyanis/Pooran Gursikhs. The difference between the Guru and the Sikh is that the Guru teaches and the Sikh follows. But the Sikh can follow to such a point that he/she also becomes like the Guru (but never teaches a separate philosophy or Dharm. He/she can inspire others on the path, but does not create a new one).

We all have the same "ocean" inside us - however, the duality of maya and ego are like a handful of dirt thrown into that glass. It is through Naam Simran, Gurbani Paath/Keertan that this mud is removed and the pristine "ocean" (Atma, part and parcel of the Parm-Atma) shines through with its true nature and the Almighty is realized. Hence why Gurbani says to search within yourself, as that is where the Almighty resides and you can make a connection to the Almighty. That connection is through Simran and Gurbani - to remove the filth of ego and maya and to see and finally be one with the Almighty within.

    • 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.
