Praying For Things

[scali]

All things exist is now AKAL(timeless). So all things already exist receiving them how soon is directly proportional on your belief in GOD. Gurus and true saints no doubt in they are Whaeguru saroop themselves so their manifestations are instant. Whereas others are in proportion to their belief. So the Aardas should also be of gratitude and Thanks since all things already exist you just bring them forth by calling for them.

Raag Sorat'h:

I am so hungry, I cannot perform devotional worship service.

Here, Lord, take back Your mala.

I beg for the dust of the feet of the Saints.

I do not owe anyone anything. ||1||

O Lord, how can I be with You?

If You do not give me Yourself, then I shall beg until I get You. ||Pause||

I ask for two kilos of flour,

And half a pound of ghee, and salt.

I ask for a pound of beans,

Which I shall eat twice a day. ||2||

I ask for a cot, with four legs,

And a pillow and mattress.

I ask for a quit to cover myself.

Your humble servant shall perform Your devotional worship service with love. ||3||

I have no greed;

Your Name is the only ornament I wish for.

Says Kabeer, my mind is pleased and appeased;

Now that my mind is pleased and appeased, I have come to know the Lord. ||4||11|| (656)

God has given us the free will to ask for anything. Some things we ask for are wise and some are unwise.

In this shabad we are taught what to ask for
