SPIRITUAL POWER & THE DARK SIDE
– Guru Arjun Dev Ji

We should always remember God who fixes all problems in our life, eliminates all worries and protects us including our family. God cares about us like a parent cares for an innocent child. When we have God’s blessing then everybody treats us with love and care.

When we keep asking for things (people, objects, money etc) causes many problems. God: I want you, your name (Meditation to God) to be at peace and to eliminate desires. God is capable of turning barren jungles into lush green forests, and turning our life from bad to good is very simple for God.

God always gives, and we should not forget God because without God our life becomes very difficult and hard to live life, even a second. God is within us and around us, therefore we can’t hide anything from him. We can only get through our life, that is like an ocean of fire, when God protects us and saves us from 5 Vikaars (Sins caused by 5 forms of Maya – Lust, Anger, Greed, Attachment & Ego). Real God’s lovers/followers are those who are blessed by God himself. When God gives us Spiritual Power we have the strength to battle 5 Vikaars and our worship/meditation gets accepted (by God) and we get respect. When we get to the stage of Mental Power we have to be very careful because at this stage most people tend to go into dark side of magical powers (causing miracles etc), and only God can save us from the dark side. Those who listen and follow the Guru (Guru Granth Sahib ji) are able to find God.
