THANK YOU GURU JI FOR HELPING ME FIND GOD
– Guru Arjun Dev ji

God is amazing – everything he does follows the rules of fairness and justice. God created this world a place for everybody to play (live and do the chores of human life), he also created human birth and death. God introduces some people to Guru to stay connected with them while others get distracted from life purpose and get lost. God exists in everything and his capabilities are beyond imagination. God runs this world based on fair rules and justice.

We should connect with God’s people and do Simrun (meditating/worship to God). We should listen to our Guru (Guru Granth Sahib ji) and change our life journey that is headed towards spiritual death. This way we get respect from God. People who are blessed with Simrun from God enjoy the connection to God. When we listen to the Guru we eliminate ego, selfishness and attachment. This is why Simrun is important. Instead of giving God material objects as offering, we should offer our mind and body to him because everything is a God’s gift – mind, body and money. We do Simrun with God’s blessing and this is how we connect to our Guru.

We run around looking for God but in the end we found him in our heart (mind) – within our-self. God lives within our bodies but to see him within us we need our Guru to guide us. When we taste the power of Naam (God’s name) the darkness of Maya (5 forms) is eliminated from our mind and we become free of worry. And we see God everywhere and I am grateful to my Guru for helping me find God.
