WHO ARE MY REAL FRIENDS?
– Guru Arjun Dev ji

My dear friends are the Sunt-Juns (Group of Saint-like people) because just by seeing them our past-life sins are forgiven and they are so blessed that even touching their feet can help us get through this life that is like an ocean full of problems. These saint like people are my real friends because they remind me of God.

I get joy from just listening to them talk, company of these great souls saves us from agent of death. They give me peace of mind and feeling of bliss and they motivate me to connect to God via Naam-Simrun (meditation to God). When you do this we get respect in this life and life after death. God has blessed his lovers with a beautiful pure life (by protecting them from evil thoughts or sin). We should give much respect to these people and always seek their company.
