It is the Art of Ascendancy that always helps us to transcend our self to the metaphysical world, the ideal world, which we happen to know as the schizoid world, as Sir William James and other philosophers in natural philosophy and psychologists in humanistic psychology express.
The Divine Message for each month is bestowed in the treasure of Gurbani, Shri Guru Granth Sahib Ji as the Ever-Living Guru (the Lord) in the form of collection of the Divine Teachings from various religions, sects and isms in India and other parts of the world. All of these express, guide and teach about the Art of Ascendancy.
These Divine Messages are for what is known as Sangrand (in Punjabi and Sankranti in Hindi), the Native or Desi month; it is when the Sun transits from one zodiac sign to the next. These describe the special way to progress and develop the Art of Ascendancy for each month.
The ragas are the classical compositions of music in India. Both Shri Guru Nanak and Shri Guru Arjan in Tukhari and Manjh Raga, bestow these Divine Messages respectively. You see, the word Waheguru is simply saying Praise the Lord Thy God, no matter what one religion or ism one follows. Just by seeking, His Grace is to walk on it and obeying His Will is an art of walking and thus ascending.
We may have many doubts making us suspicious about each other, though all have great mystic assets and treasures.
These doubts are created by ignorance, the very force of ego, and can be cleared by those, who are the selfless ones, the saints and the holy ones obeying Gurbani by remembering Him while serving Creation. Here the "holy one" means all those, who have learnt the art of transcendentalism and have thus ascended to the level of higher level of living.
Giving direction to one’s knowledge in the light of Wisdom of Gurbani brings clarity of thought, the mystic touch. Knowledge without direction is mere information, having no metaphorical joy but with direction, it is wisdom. This direction is the direction of the way as the ascending one, not the descending.
To practice any art just for a day does not produce perfection; rather it is giving a touch of months and years to the days.
The students of Metaphysics understand that the metaphor of the day of universe has the millions of the years in which we have spent a fraction, while we transcend by following the theory of relativity and returning to earth or the physical level, the body as a vehicle or an instrument.
We all understand this concept of the transcendental self, we are the living vehicles or the instruments that both play and run the cosmic play, the drama. It is popularly known as Leela in Sanskrit, Hindi and Punjabi languages-the same meaning, feelings, experiences and thus self and spiritual development without the barriers of languages and cultures. It is thus a lesson of our intercultural learning of interfaith-uniting for peace and one world.
