Dhan Guru Nanak, Jag Taariya - Blessed be Guru Nanak [whose teachings] saved the world.
This year, the birthday of the Great Master, Guru Nanak Sahib falls on 13th of November. The Sindhis were greatly influenced by Guru Nanak's teachings as He did pass through Sindh and expound His beautifully simple philosophy to the Sindhis of that area. The Sindhis were so deeply influenced by the Master's teachings that it was not uncommon for the Sindhis to make their first son a Sikh. Even today the Sindhis worship Guru Nanak with the same fervor that they accord to, Shri Krishna, Shri Ram, Lord Shiva or/and Maa Durga, Maa Laxmi and Maa Saraswati Shree Bhagwad Gita and The Guru Granth Sahib both enjoy an exalted status in Sindhi homes. Come let us pay homage to this Giant personality.
Nanak uttered the famous words:
Ek Omkaar -- Only One Omkaar -- Only One primordial sound [which continues when everything ceases to be]. Only One God. [One Ocean with many waves].
Sat Naam -- The True Name. That which is True.
Karta Purukh -- He who Creates.
Nir-bhav -- Without fear. One who is fearless.
Nir-vair -- One who has no enemies.
Akaal-Moorat -- He whose form is beyond Time and description.
'Kaal' means 'Time'. Akaal means 'Beyond Time' Time is subject to change. God is not. God has no beginning and no end.
Ayooni-Saibhan -- He who is Self-Effulgent and is not born from a mother's womb.
Gur-Parsaad – [The dissolution of the ego, This Blissful experience and the taking of the Lord's name is due to the] Mercy of the Guru.
Jap –[Therefore] Chant the Lord's Name
Aadi-Sach--Jugaadi-sach -- True since the beginning of Time Hai- bhi-sach -- Is True in the present
Nanak hosee bhee sach -- Nanak claims that He will remain true for evermore.
The above immortal words are enshrined at the beginning of the Sikh Holy Scripture: The Guru Granth Sahib.
The Hindus cremated the flowers whereas the Muslims buried theirs. Like Guru Nanak claims in one of his hymns;
Nanak leen bhayo Govind syon Jyon pani sang pani
Which means that Nanak has so merged with the Lord Like water does with water.
Allah Malik
