I AM A SINNER,  PLEASE HELP ME GOD 
– Guru Arjun Dev ji

Simrun (meditation to God) eliminates fear of both physical death and we escape spiritual death. Simrun helps us stay calm, content and eventually leads to God. Dear God: Please bless me with Naam (God’s Name in my heart) and bless me with company of God’s people. Please save me from Vikaars (sins) and give me strength to get rid of ego. Bless me with solid faith in you so that I can escape the cycle of reincarnation.

I am a sinner, I lack good qualities, feeling the pressure of anger, ego, attachment, I don’t remember death, and I even stuck in lust and entertainment shows involving females, I am ignorant. My life is passing by, I am getting old, and death is waiting for my life to come to an end. You are my only hope, I have been going through many rebirths and I have experience problems in all life forms (we don’t always take birth as humans, sometimes we become other species from animals to rocks etc). I am always attached to material objects, I have a burden of sins on my shoulders, I have wandered in many countries and my lives and I have only encountered problems.

I have found peace in Naam-Simrun. I have tried and failed to cross this life full of problems many times. When someone is blessed by you he becomes spiritually strong and has peace. God blesses people who simply have the name “Bhagat” (Bhagats are saint-like people who were denied religion, because of their caste, by evil priests in power, but they found God on their own). Real Bhagats don’t fear anything in life. We should always discuss/praise God. When we hear about God’s praise we find God in our heart. People who are filled with love for God are very lucky. If the whole world becomes a large piece of paper and the plant life becomes the pen and air becomes the writer, it would still not be enough to praise God. I seek support of GOD who is beyond praise.
