The Soul
Where is the soul? What is the soul? Why do we have a soul? When do we need a soul?
The soul is what Sikhs call the joth, every being has a joth in the body which we call Guru Dee Joth (the light of God). This is one of the main reasons why a Sikh has to love all beings. We are all part of the surpreme and most powerful soul – God, Vahiguroo. We are all his/her soul brides so we are all related very closely without realisation and we all have an equal amount of potential for our souls to merge with the supreme soul. Guru Jee, in Gurbani informs the mind: 'You are part of the surpreme soul recognise yourself, give up your wicked act.'
mun thoon joth suroop hai aapunaa mool pushaan
O my mind, you are the embodiment of the Divine Light - recognize your own origin.
mun har jee thaerai naal hai gurumuthee rung maan
O my mind, the Dear Lord is with you; through the Guru's Teachings, enjoy His Love.
mool pushaanehi thaa suhu jaanehi murun jeevun kee sojhee hoee
Acknowledge your origin, and then you shall know your Husband Lord, and so understand death and birth.
gur purusaadhee eaeko jaanehi thaa dhoojaa bhaao n hoee
By Guru's Grace, know the One; then, you shall not love any other.
man saath aaee vujee vudhaaee thaa hoaa puruvaan
Peace comes to the mind, and gladness resounds; then, you shall be acclaimed.
eio kehai naanuk mun thoon joth suroop hai apunaa mool pushaan
Thus says Nanak: O my mind, you are the very image of the Luminous Lord; recognize the true origin of your self. 5
The soul is always very pure but we can only realise this by searching for it in our innerself. All we do is label bodies, give them a name, attach ourselves to them and think that they are going to stay with us for the rest of our lives. But no! the soul inside the body is God, just like every other soul in every other body. The soul only comes to Earth for one major reason and that is to collect Karmaa (Karam – future and present deeds), and to serve past deeds (Pichle Karam).
hubhae saak koorraavae ddithae tho pulai thaiddai laagee
I have seen that all relationships are false, and so I have grasped hold of the hem of Your robe, Lord. 1
kurumee kurumee hoe veechaar
By their deeds and their actions, they shall be judged.
The body in the end, after death becomes dust and ashes and is forgotten over time. But all the deeds committed by this person – good or bad go with the soul, which ultimately merges with the supreme soul (Param Aatma) and is judged by the righteous judge of dharma (Dharam raaj), then ready for duty in the world again in a completely different body. This body then lives it’s life according to the deeds that the soul has brought with it and slowly after many incarnations in many bodily forms, every soul in the universe ends up merging with the supreme soul.
dhurum raae no hukum hai behi suchaa dhurum beechaar
The Righteous Judge of Dharma, by the Hukam of God's Command, sits and administers True Justice.
dhoojai bhaae dhusutt aathumaa ouhu thaeree surukaar
Those evil souls, ensnared by the love of duality, are subject to Your Command.
adhiaathumee har gun thaas man jupehi eaek muraar
The souls on their spiritual journey chant and meditate within their minds on the One Lord, the Treasure of Excellence.
thin kee saevaa dhurum raae kurai dhunn suvaarunehaar
The Righteous Judge of Dharma serves them; blessed is the Lord who adorns them. 2
mun kae bikaar munehi thujai man chookai mohu abhimaan One who eliminates mental wickedness from within the mind, and casts out emotional attachment and egotistical pride,
aathum raam pushaaniaa sehujae naam sumaan
comes to recognize the All-pervading Soul, and is intuitively absorbed into the Naam.
bin sathigur mukath n paaeeai munumukh firai dhivaan
Without the True Guru, the self-willed manmukhs do not find liberation; they wander around like lunatics.
subudh n cheenai kuthunee budhunee kurae bikhiaa maahi sumaan
They do not contemplate the Shabad; engrossed in corruption, they utter only empty words. 3
At Amritvelaa seated meditation, the soul has a chance to experience, here is just 1 experience. When the mind experiences total Ras (ecstacy) through Naam the soul tends to leave the body and can possibly drift away for a length of time, this usually happens at Amritvelaa because it is a very peaceful time and there are no disturbances. The only problem is if there is any sound whilst this experience is taking place the soul comes back to the body with a thump and it is quite painful in the Heart area and a bit scary but once you have experienced it you always want to experience it again. The soul also tends to look down at the body whilst we are meditating. These experiences are not very important but the mind and soul will experience them. Do not desire these experiences as they will come naturally with Naam, the main objective of Gurmat is for the soul to be united with Vahiguroo God.
brehum bindhai this dhaa brehumuth rehai eaek subadh liv laae
One who knows God, and who lovingly focuses his attention on the One Word of the Shabad, keeps his spirituality intact.
nuv nidhee athaareh sidhee pishai lugeeaa firehi jo har hirudhai sudhaa vusaae
The nine treasures and the eighteen spiritual powers of the Siddhas follow him, who keeps the Lord enshrined in his heart.
bin sathigur naao n paaeeai bujhuhu kar veechaar
Without the True Guru, the Name is not found; understand this, and reflect upon it.
naanuk poorai bhaag sathigur milai sukh paaeae jug chaar
O Nanak, through perfect good destiny, one meets the True Guru, and finds peace, throughout the four ages. 1
Most of the time Guru Jee relates to mind and soul as one in Gurbani, our soul is just a drop out of the Ocean waiting to be reunited with the Ocean again (supreme soul, God). Meditate in this lifetime for the blessed vision of the pure and True Guru (God). If we don’t meet God in this lifetime we are definitely very close, the reason being God has blessed us with the realisation of meeting God which is the most powerful realisation one can have. SO WHY WASTE TIME.
thun jal bal maattee bhaeiaa mun maaeiaa mohi munoor
The body is burnt to ashes; by its love of Maya, the mind is rusted through.
aougun fir laagoo bheae koor vujaavai thoor
Demerits become one's enemies, and falsehood blows the bugle of attack.
bin subudhai bhurumaaeeai dhubidhaa ddobae poor
Without the Word of the Shabad, people wander lost in reincarnation. Through the love of duality, multitudes have been drowned. 1
mun rae subadh thuruhu chith laae
O mind, swim across, by focusing your consciousness on the Shabad.
jin gurumukh naam n boojhiaa mar junumai aavai jaae
Those who do not become Gurmukh do not understand the Naam; they die, and continue coming and going in reincarnation. 1Pause
thun soochaa so aakheeai jis mehi saachaa naao
That body is said to be pure, in which the True Name abides.
bhai sach raathee dhaehuree jihuvaa such suaao
One whose body is imbued with the Fear of the True One, and whose tongue savors Truthfulness,
suchee nudhar nihaaleeai buhurr n paavai thaao
is brought to ecstasy by the True Lord's Glance of Grace. That person does not have to go through the fire of the womb again. 2
saachae thae puvunaa bhaeiaa puvunai thae jul hoe
From the True Lord came the air, and from the air came water.
jul thae thribhuvun saajiaa ghatt ghatt joth sumoe
From water, He created the three worlds; in each and every heart He has infused His Light.
nirumul mailaa naa theeai subadh ruthae path hoe
The Immaculate Lord does not become polluted. Attuned to the Shabad, honor is obtained. 3
eihu mun saach sunthokhiaa nudhar kurae this maahi
One whose mind is contented with Truthfulness, is blessed with the Lord's Glance of Grace.
punch bhooth sach bhai ruthae joth suchee mun maahi
The body of the five elements is dyed in the Fear of the True One; the mind is filled with the True Light.
naanuk aougun veesurae gur raakhae path thaahi
O Nanak, your demerits shall be forgotten; the Guru shall preserve your honor. 415
With this realisation one must understand we do not have many lifetimes to go. If you look around you, the world is turning it self upside down through people that practice and preach in a very wrong way. Wars are taking place – the only people that survive in this world are those people who meditate on the name of the Lord and undertake the Guru’s teachings which are asking for (Sarbat da Palla – the wellbeing of the universe), this is asked for twice a day by the Sikhs in the Ardaas (formal prayer).
sae mukuth sae mukuth bheae jin har dhiaaeiaa jee thin thoottee jum kee faasee
They are liberated, they are liberated-those who meditate on the Lord. For them, the noose of death is cut away.
Let’s free our minds and merge with those blessed souls in Sach Khand – the gate of truth to stop our coming and going in the dark age of Kaljug.
baemukh baareh baatt kur saadh sunguth such khundd vusaayaa
The Guru had dispersed the apostates into the twelve sects (of the yogis), and seated the holy congregation of the saints in the domain of Truth (the sachkhand). Bhai Sahib Bhai Gurdaas Jee
Sikhism is not a religion it is a way of life formed by the first Guru – Guru Nanak born in 1469. He was born with a smile on his face and a beautiful presence. He was enlightened at birth and pure minded. He had only come into this dark age of Kaljug for duty by God to spread divine wisdom of God into the world. His teachings were direct from God – Dhur Ki Baani Ai. Tin Suglee Chint Matai – these teachings have come from God to rid the world of its delusions. The world had been turned upside down by evil, caste systems, higher and lower, women being treated like slaves, cannibals, mass murders, religious conversions, ritualistic acts, superstition, black magic, and many more vicious acts. He had been sent to the world to enlighten these poor but very blessed souls, to spread love and harmony in the world and spread the beautiful teachings of humanity and truth. He travelled all over India and Pakistan spreading the beautiful teachings of God all compiled in the embodiment of the 10 Guru’s the Guru Granth Sahib. There are 10 Gurus in the Sikh religion, who all played a beautiful part in adding to the Guru Granth Sahib or enlightening the world with God’s beautiful teachings. All the Guru’s had the same soul (joth) from the 1st to the 10th.

har naanuk saach vukhaanaa Nanak chants the Naam, the Name of the True Lord. 21377
Daas looks at life as a world ocean, the beginning of the ocean is when we had our first incarnation, when the mind and soul were first sent into a body by God, the end of the ocean is Sachkhand, oneness with the lord, in between is 8.4 million life times. Now Guru Jee has blessed us with realization in how to get across this ocean, lets make Naam, Amrit, Rehit and Bani our boat. Lets not let the minds desires stop us. Lust, Anger, Greed, Attachment and Ego being the waves of the ocean. We must be somewhere near the end of the ocean, if we decide to make this our last life and hope Guru Jee blesses us with Athai Pehar Ras of Naam (24/7 ecstasy of his name).
It is not important who Daas is and what he looks like, Daas will not be able to take anyone across this terrifying world ocean. All we can do is learn from each other and help each other across. The only substance in which will liberate us is the substance of Naam. No human will. Guru sahib is our (vachola) introducer to God; he will bless us with Athai Pehar Ras of Naam, so lets come in to Rehit and take Amrit only when we are ready. Daas feels the Panth is coming in Chardeekalla, the only time it will be better is when individual beings become Jeevan Mukhat (liberated whilst alive). The reason Daas feels this is because Naam is being discussed openly throughout the whole Panth and this is the only substance which will carry us across.

WOULD U BE ABLE TO EXPLAIN THIS A LITTLE FURTHER....IS IT IMPORTANT TO CONCENTRATE AT THIS POINT?...I HEARD IF WE CONCENTRATE THEN WE DONT GET THE SMADHI RAS?...WHAT DOES THIS AAVSATHA MEAN? WHEN DOES THIS CHANGE FURTHER?
anonymous,
It is very important to stay focused and concentrated dont worry about experiences and Ras if we stay focused progression will develop a lot faster if you want to experience and stay stuck in 1 ras you will loose the focus of simran, it is only through single minded concentration one will reach the highest levels of spirituality. Experiencing is a desire (itcha) one will not develop further in ones journey. The avastha of Sunn Smaadhi means total emptiness just concentration (dhiaan), oneness with God and his creation.
What are the spirtual symtoms for amrit and naam ras? Whats the first feeling you get?
