U go back to your past and try to figure out if you have done any good ever&#8230; and you donot find anything&#8230;&#8230;Rather u look at all the bad things u have done in ur life. why you&#8230;.. and this question remains unanswered &#8230;.beyond ur logic.<\/p>\n<p>And then it dawns upon you &#8211;<br \/>\nThat the lord is Too vast and big for our small mind to understand&#8230;. He is simply beyond our comprehension. Perhaps.. He doesnot want us to know him in totality.  So u let HIM BE. and U donot want to know why how when&#8230;. etc. There is no need. Its futile&#8230;.<br \/>\n&#8216;Vel na payia panditi je hove lekh puran vakht na payio kadia je likhan lekh kuran&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>And then &#8230;. you r filled with ecstacy and Gratitude. U start thinking about His Creation &#8230; how wonderfully he has created everything&#8230;.everything is so perfect&#8230;. U think of paying back&#8230;. and then u laugh at ur foolish thought&#8230; for you know that if He is the giver, then the reciever too is HIM. How can one pay back to himself?  U  realise how subtly he exists in everything. And how  beautifully MAya hides him from us. He is there in front of us and yet we cannot see him. And then u find urself reciting<br \/>\n&#8216;Jal thal mahiyal Guptu vartai, Gur shabdi dekh Nihari jeeo&#8217;<\/p>\n<p>And then u know that how Ur Guru(shabad guru) has blessed you&#8230;with this  wisdom&#8230; U recollect how u were guided to the Company of Sangat, and Shabad Kirtan&#8230; how u starting comptemplating on Gurbani&#8230;. and u know that u would never have made such a decision&#8230;on ur own&#8230;.<\/p>\n<p>And then u feel like sharing this with others&#8230;. so u start writing&#8230;. And suddenly u realise that U may be thinking too much of urself ( half empty vessel makes lot of noise ) &#8230;. and ur ego may be going very high&#8230;. So u ask for forgiveness from the reader, and the Guru and hence the LORD for having said, thought or written anything wrong or twisted or out of ego&#8230;..<\/p>\n<p>And then u wish to end this note&#8230;again with a prayer that this state of BLISS Continues&#8230;. forever&#8230;. and may others taste it too&#8230;.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Imagine a situation, Where Most of your wishes have not been met yet&#8230;.
