Every person deserves to be happy.
This is easier said than done.
Most people are never satisfied with their situations.
Human aspirations are Malthusian. We seek new heights every time we attain a new peak.
That is why bliss is so difficult to reach and to sustain. We may be satiated for seconds on occasion , only for some form of want to haunt our minds yet again.
All civilizations are driven by motives to attain and to maintain a state of bliss.
There are many synonyms of bliss. Any or all of them represent major aims of personal spirituality and organized religion.
Do you know the meaning of Sikh?
A Sikh is a disciple.
The Japuji Sahib, which is the Living God, says:
"O Nanak, The Disciples Are Forever In Bliss"
The culture of the Guru implies learning. The post of May 25, 2008 on this web log is about India and the way of the Guru.
Every tributary of spirituality that has emerged from the soil of India, enjoins the way of a Guru and disciples.
Discipleship is a path with bliss as a destination.
Are discipleship and learning the same?
The Japuji Sahib comes to our rescue once again. The Guru prescribes active listening as a primary duty of a disciple.
Visit a Gurudwara anywhere on Earth. You will find it to be an ocean of bliss, even if it is situated in the most trying of circumstances.
Active listening to the Living Guru is the over-riding aim that joins all Gurudwaras in reverberant spirituality.
The Japuji Sahib is a convenient recitation for you to practice active listening. It sets the tone to make every day full of bliss, regardless of the obstacles and set-backs that one may encounter.
