"Recognise the whole human race as one."
Guru Gobind Singh Ji 1666-1708
Living in a big world, we constantly meet people from different backgrounds. With these different paths continually crossing yours, it is important to remember that we are all human beings.
As humans, we have a tendency of judging others. We judge in many ways! We judge colour, cast, creed, gender, religion, appearance and in many others ways. It's important we look at all as equal and the creation of Vaheguroo (God), or we will suffer in this life and the next. When we judge others, we always tend to upset many people, as most our judgment is usually wrong and judged by our ego. Even if the judgement is right, it's important we let people be and experience. There will come a time, when they will realise there is no worth or value in what wrong they do.
Guru Sahib Ji, has given us a beautiful teaching of, "Dekh ke andith kardhayna" (to ignore what we have seen). In this horrific world and life time, we will see many things. We will not be able to physically deal with them all. Sometimes, we may just have to do a prayer and walk away. We have a bad habit of exposing people. This is not the quality of a Sikh. If he/she sees something wrong, they will lovingly go and tell them personally and support them to adjust. Why? Because God is in all and we have been given the spiritual wisdom to see the one God in all through his Name Vaheguroo!
Guru sahib ji tells us, if we would like to liberate this mind and soul, we have to see God in all their creation, including animals, nature and everything that is designed by their creation.
This love only comes through Naam meditation. They become one with their mind and soul to find inner peace.
Guru Ramdas Ji Says, "Eihu sareer sabh dhharam hai jis a(n)dhar sachae kee vich joth."
This body is the home of Dharma; the Divine Light of the True Lord is within it.
Hidden within it are the jewels of mystery; how rare is that Gurmukh, that selfless servant, who digs them out.
"Sabh aatham raam pashhaaniaa thaa(n) eik raviaa eiko outh poth."
When someone realizes the All-pervading Soul (God), then he sees the One and Only Lord permeating in everyone, through and through.
He sees the One, he believes in the One, and with his ears, he listens only to the One.
O servant Nanak, praise the Naam, the Name of the Lord; this is your service to the Lord, the Truest of the True.
Vaheguroo!
