[QUOTE="Luckysingh, post: 170015, member: 16886"] I'm not too sure what you mean, exactly ? However, you have got me thinking further into realising how to realise!! I think your saying it's an ''illusion'', because this is what you have made me come to realise now! We know it's a metaphor about how does one get to the other side or shore of the world terrifying ocean. The other side or shore is ''Self Realisation'' which Nanak does infact have!! How does one get this self realisation ? Only by focusing the consciousness on the real truth can one get to the other side or shore. The world ocean or the water is representing the '''maya or world illusion,'' through which we must cross. But if keep the focus on the Guru's word of truth, then we can come to ''realise this truth', whilst being unaffected by the water or world illusion! [/QUOTE]
