'4 to 7' of 38 Steps to Lord TRUTH ..back to Step 1 to 3
Step 4: RISE EARLY & PONDER OVER Thy Commandments
i. e. Sikh's Life line, TRUE IDEAs
- LORD TRUTH is TRUE .
- THY JUSTICE is TRUE .
- THY LANGUAGE is LOVE BEYOND ALL BOUNDRIES .
- People endlessly beg and pray, "Give to us, give to us", and the great giver ‘TRUTH’ keeps honoring them.
* What return gifts can we reciprocate with to seek a glance of Thy Court? * What words should we speak to evoke Thy favour & Love? * CONTEMPLATE and PONDER Over Wisdom During ambrosial hours before dawn
( Three Hrs before Sun Rise ).
- Today’s condition of all Living beings and availability of Support for their Livelihood is a consequence of actions in the past.
- ‘TRUE KEYS’ to Truth (actions in harmony with ‘TRUTH’s’ Commandments), are found Through Lord TRUTH’s Grace.
- Let us understand that LORD TRUTH Himself alone is always true. We tend to deviate from obeying TRUTH’s Commandments.
Step 5: SERVE TRUE IDEAs
- Lord TRUTH is SELF MADE, ..can not be created and / or established like an idol of stone......(...back to IDOL of TRUTH..)
- Lord TRUTH Himself is Immaculate and Pure & needs no washing / bathing / pampering. Such ritualistic Services are FALSE
TRUE Service to the Lord is Service to SatGur ( TRUE IDEAs )
Those who Serve TRUE IDEAs by..
..Singing
* Sayth Nanak! Let us all sing Odes to the glory of the Lord ‘TRUTH’, who is the Treasure of Excellence.
..Listening
* Come On! Let us all! Every one of us! Sing and listen to Odes to Master ‘TRUTH’.
..& Grasping the Quintessence
* Let us grasp & retain the Theme of TRUE IDEAs sung,( dedicated to no one but Lord TRUTH), deep in our hearts through: -
- --Deep thinking,
- --Analysis,
- --Comprehension,
- --Infinite love &
- --Hard Work.
..stay in harmony with Thy commandments, earn honors.
- This way let us all rid ourselves of the pain, & miseries and carry everlasting peace to our homes.
- Within TRUE IDEAs reside:-
..........yogic Sound-current glorified as ‘Naad’ by yogis.
..........wisdom of ‘Vedas’
..........Master ‘TRUTH ‘ himself.
..........GOD
..........Master of Yoga Gorakh.
..........Vishnu and Brahma;
..........Paarvati and Lakhshmi
- It is mind-boggling. Even if I had known all those & all that reside within TRUE IDEAs, I would not have been able to put across and describe in words.
- To begin with Guru, ( TRUE IDEAs to TRUTH ) has given me just one understanding that There is only the One Master Giver of all souls i.e. TRUTH, May I never forget TRUTH!
Step 6: KNOW Your Own Self
- My pilgrimageand holy bath is my being pleasing to Him. Without earning THY approval , what good are ritualistic bathing at places of stated holy Pligrimages.
- I gaze upon all the created beings: without doing good deeds, one receives nothing.
- Within the mind are gems, jewels and rubies of intellect. if only one introspects & listens to Commandments of Lord TRUTH , even once.
- All that is required is one thing -Listening to SatGur, ( TRUE IDEAs to TRUTH ).If only one listens this, he becomes a Sikh.
- In regional Punjabi ' O SIKH(noun)! bus ikk SIKH ( verb) '
Punjabi has a classical attribute of being brief, straight to the
point & thus lends itself conveniently to complex poetic,
psychological, sentimental & philosophical
expressions. Same word can be repeatedly used as verb/noun/adjective
etc.
Nanak's writings are 'Unique Master Pieces in this regard .
- SatGur has given me one understanding that there is only the One Master Giver of all souls i.e. Lord TRUTH. May I never forget LORD TRUTH.
Step 7: TOIL for No One's, but Thy Approval
- Even if one...
.............could live throughout the four ages, or even ten times more,
.............was known throughout the nine continents and followed by all,
.............had a good name and reputation, with praise and fame throughout the world,
- Still if Lord does not bless him, then who cares? What is the use? In such a case...
............one would be considered a lowly worm Among worms,
............even contemptible sinners would hold him in contempt.
- THOU alone bless the unworthy with virtue, and bestow virtues on the virtuous.
- No one else can even be imagined who could bestow any virtue upon unworthy.
