To truly die…….today we are bound by what the world, society, even “religion” quantifies at death……….dass was diagnosed with a rare illness a few years ago and the first thing that came into dass’s mind was “what is death” the prospect realy scared me……….without the Guru death is your worst fear………….

 The mind of of manmukhs mind like mine see the death of the body……the decay and decease of the body…….and we think that is the end…oh how wrong…….when a butterfly emerges from its coccon…….only he knows the liberation he has gained and looks back at its formor shell with delight………

Oh how backwrds the world is…..we cling to this shell which will perish……Guru Ji tells us soooo many times what is real and what is false but, as it says in Sukhmani Sahib, the fools falls in love with the shadow of a tree but when it disappears he feels regret in his heart…………..

 Death hangs around my neck……i can almost feel the breath on the back of my neck……..waheguru is so amazing that her reminds us that nothing is permentant here……live as though u are a guest here…….everything is waheguru’s……he has simply entrusted this shell to us……….our job is to simply take care of it………not make it ours………
