Perhaps we are so focused on external displays of respect and/or disrespect for our "father", Guru Granth Sahib, that we have forgotten what real respect is. Perhaps the reason we don't respect externally is that we don't respect internally. Our actions betray our thoughts and our values. | |||
I think it is internal satkaar (submission, internalization and obedience) leads to external satkaar. | |||
