SIKHI LAW OF LOVE AND ESCAPING MAYA
– Guru Arjun Dev ji

Fake activities like going to pilgrimage and bathing at holy places are for show (when you don’t have God in your heart), and those who keep doing this get robbed by demon (Grim Reaper – messenger of death). If we do millions of Fake activities like visiting pilgrimages/bathing at Sarovars (holy pool of water at most Gurdwaras) we actually get stuck in dirt of Maya.

This is why we should get out of greed and praise and discuss God because God’s name can help us escape maya in a second – and we can get out of world full of problems (which is like a raging ocean). Those people who listen to saints/saint like people, they get blessed by Guru and get out of this ocean. Those who do Guru’s company and praise God their life becomes pure.

Reading Veds (religious books from Hinduism) or Quran doesn’t help us get out of Maya. Only Guru can save us. No matter what social caste (in Sikhi all are equal) we are born in, we are supposed to do Naam Simran. Whoever does it escapes Maya. When we do Naam-simran we start seeing God in all beings.
