GURU SAHIB LISTENS
"Everyone chants the Lord's Name, Raam, Raam; but by such chanting, the Lord is not obtained.
By Guru's Grace, the Lord comes to dwell in the mind, and then, the fruits are obtained. ||1||
One who enshrines love for God within his mind,
never forgets the Lord; he continually chants the Lord's Name, Har, Har, in his conscious awake mind". ||1||Pause||
Guru Amardas Ji 1479-1574
When our mind is listening to Gurbani and Vaheguroo Gurmantar, this means Guru Gobind Singh Sahib ji is accepting and listening to the shabad we are reciting also. If our tongue repeats but our mind fails to hear and contemplate, this means Guru Sahib ji has not accepted the Shabad in dargaah sachkhand (gate of truth) and we fail to receive their thaapraa (blessings)..
Moral- always focus with single minded concentration when reciting naam meditation and baani. Just repeating is not accepted. EverySINGLE call, chant to vaheguroo should be a call of love and union for God the supreme soul through a separation of two souls. This leads to the emotion of bairaag (sincere longing and a cry of love), which ends in a state of Sehj (bliss, peace, poise and tranquility).
Vaheguroo!
