Bang-on Inderjeet ! yes, it's Eternal ! And, the theme, praise and the direction of SGGSJ is to that end with specific emphasis on its realisation.


"Bhai prapat manukh dea'hariya, Govind Milan ki eh teri variya" [this here human form is for you to meet thy creator - p12 SGGSJ]. So really, the house of Nanak points us in a direction where it has this prescriptive function in the realisation of God.


Baba Nanak sums it thus, "jai'say jal main kamal nee'ralum murghai nee'sana ! Surat-shabd (Nam) bhav sagar tar'iya Nanak nam vee'kha'nay" [p938 SGGSJ]. Let me show you, says Baba Nanak.


Interjeet, you've said "learn n grow" ! Yes, absolutely - Evolution. We've come to evolve from human to spiritual beings - our true identity.


Have good day !
