Guru piayario Jios...
Modern living has made "honesty"....such a joke.
Today we are so used to lying....how many times do we decline to answer the phone by looking at the Caller ID....or tell our children/wife to lie...not at home...
Once a long long time I followed my dad to a sangat members house to collect the Gurdwara Chanda...a small child came out and told us...Mera Daddy kahendah..gyani nu kahedeh mehn ghareh nahin haiga...MY daddy told me to tell you that he is not home. Those days we didnt have Caller ID/Maids..so we had to tell the lies oursleves...now we have modern technology.
Various other forms of dishonesty are just too common..we dont even think twice about that.
Is that why the world is in a worse position than before..and we blame KALYUG for that ?? Is the time Kalyug or US !!
We are in the Speed age..where everything seesm to get speedier daily...pedestrians..to bicycles..to motor bikes..to feraris..rockets....and the Same Way....we "misread" between the lines..jump to conclusions and race to lay the blame at the other's door....oh he is "against me.." or "for me"...and neither coudl be nearer the truth !! the "for me" couldl be the one "against me"..or NEITHER.
Its mainly because the KHOT is in OURSELVES..we get the COLD FEET at being found out...real intentions discovered....while all this while we were confident of having covered our tracks...every murderer thinks he/she has committed the perfect crime..covered every track...BUT alas..not so.
I alwasy beleived that even OUR WRITING reveals our character....the writing is an outer expression fo teh inner soul....what is deep down and buried inside us..surfaces in our words..our faces..our actions..our voices...our BODY LANGUAGE...etc etc. The OUTER is a mirror image of the INSIDE..The TWO CANNOT be DIVORCED from each other...no way !! That is why Gurbani/SGGS..our Gurus LIVES..everything takes both the Inside and the outside as ONE ENTITY. Which is Harder to achieve..accomplish..is STRESSED much more...what is EASIER..is left unsaid...as it is logically what will follow as the result of improving the INSIDE. For the Inside we read Gurbani..for the OUTSIDE we see and follow what the GURUS, the Sahibzadahs, the Martyrs, the Singhs, the Shaheeds, did..as PRACTICAL in their DAILY LIVES.:happy: Otherwise we can also say that the GURUS didnt do as they preached ?? NO we cant because the GURUS did exactly what they preached..Avar updesseh aap na kareh is NOT their style.:happy:
