Two powerful, beautiful and infinte lines/jewels in Japji Sahib-Importance of taking the journey to seek within and doing Amrit Vela

i know some people are wary of Yogi Bhajan's life, but in one of his talks he spoke of the above two lines, and for me it opened up the whole universe as he describes. It motivated my search, thirst for the truth began to grow to experience what the above two lines is pulling us towards.
Thoughts on Line 1
By 'thinking' he cannot be obtained or understood or 'known' ... thinking is a waste of life energy when its wandering in countless directions, it drains us and we are left with ideas, thoughts and limited understanding....so why think? Mind will always think...itlivesby generating thoughts and creates our life experience...if mind stops working, the creation for us stops...so how can we stop thinking? We need the mind while we are here taking this journey yet it is also an obstacle. this is what the inner journey is all about (from my experience)
How can we obtain, experience our Creator without thought? is there a state of being or existence, in between thoughts..is there space in between thoughts? can we find that space, take our attention to it where thoughts no longer take hold of us where were are present in that divine momentwhere illusion of time no longer exists, in that moment, precise moment where god is forever present in pure stillness and tranquility?Can we find that place? will Guru Ji take me there?
Lets Enjoy the journey to finding this out, as i am
Second line:
By remaining silent, there is still no silence...so even when we obtain that state where thoughts of past and future and present no longer pull our attention, consciousness and energy, deep in inner seeking and meditation where pure stillness is found,and yet there is still no silence...what a beautiful jewel of Gurbani
Something else is there...something else is listening, something else is present and talking, something else has a shabad.
Like Yogi Ji says...this is the formula...these two lines describe the whole of existance...the meaning just goes deeper and deeper the more you seek within....it just keeps on going and going deeper.Ego says"i have found the truth', yet the more we seek the more there is to discover about ourselves and God, endless, infinte...are we able to explain this?
I'm enjoying the seeking, i'm sure we all are
