SWAN vs GOOSE

Hukamnama by 4th Guru – Guru Ram Das ji
Page 585-586

**Hukamnama for days: Mar 2, [2014]: Aug 1

Those people who love God so much that they are soaked in God’s name and stay connected to God at all times are true saints, they are always after true wealth – Naam-Simran. They always stay pure – not affected by 5 enemies. I have respect for those who do Naam-simran all the time.

Sometimes we get confused by fakes (who pretend to be Sants) and spend time with them only to regret it later because we wasted our time. We see this a lot in Gurbani – comparison of a Swan and a Goose. Although they appear the same, but when a Goose tries to pretend to be a Swan and tries to swim, it sinks and dies. Same thing is with fakes, they appear and act like Gurmukhs but they are empty inside (no connection to God).

God: you created everything, you existed before anything else and you are in everything, and you have no form or shape therefore I can’t describe you. You bless everybody with whatever they need without them asking for it. God is amazing that he has also blessed us with the biggest gift of Naam-Simran.
