Guru ji in His 250 Years on Earth freed us from the BONDAGE of the Brahmin, the Priest, the Holy man, the Holy Cow, the Holy Superstition, the Holy Ash, the Holy Pilgrim, the Holy Pilgrimage, the Holy diet, the Holy Cloth....etc etc etc..
GURU JI created the PERFECT MAN, the COMPLEAT MAN and Gave Our DESTINY firmly in our own TWO HANDS...with just three injunctions...Naam japna, KIRT karnee, and Waand Chhkana..no other HOCUS POCUS...NO INTERMEDIARIES between SIKH and GURU..DIRECT CONTACT.
The moment GURU JI left this earth in 1708... we began the slide into the same pit that Guru Ji pulled us out of. Now we REAP what we have Sowed... we allowed these PRIESTS, the Holy Brahmins, the Holy cloths, the holy ashes, the holy golden domes, golden palkis, the holy sants babas maharjs satgurus....the Holy Jathedars to take charge of our lives...and DICTATE to US (what GURU JI says to us...) WHY have we Forsaken the GURU JI ( and NEGLECTED to STUDY GURBANI, read the Paath for ourselves..as GURU JI instructed, why havent we learnt the ARDASS ourselves as GURU JI instructed.....so much so that we RUSH AFTER these so called Priests, Kirtaniyas, the Holy men in cholas and round turbans...to do our adrass, paath, kirtan ??? FOR US. Are we then surprised that they want to CONTROL our LIVES...put our necks on the chopping block as we BOW before them in IGNORANCE ??
Tell me whose fault is this ?? Is it GURU JI's fault ?? GURU JI is there AVAILABLE 24/7/365 days for us to READ, VICHAAR, LOVE and FOLLOW and solve our problems....but we prefert to push for the kirtaniya, the bhai ji, the gyani ji, the jathedar ji..because we are too LAZY.
No offense meant..just the stark reality staring us in the face. IF we dont take stock and Run after GURU JI..these Jathedars are going to tear us alive and roast us for breakfast...real soon.
