and in meditation gets immersed in the love of the Lord. Ifhe opens his eyes
and sees the stars and planets in that wondrousness, then he sees deep and
perceives that they are in millions and far and further. Those who have
counted fourteen, earlier they had counted seven. Sometimes, again when
they count, they will count more. The starry night hrives ecstasy to the saint.
Sometimes the eyes see inwardly and the awakened inner eyes see the universe

ecstasy to the minds that are not in ego and desires and the inner selfrises and
falls at the Lord's feet.

Guru: When the astronomers or astrologers learn more, then they will be
able to tell. Our way is concentration ofmind. Yes, in a way it is meditation. If
you meditate, then you can also see.

conversation and feeling wondrousness. On listening to the words ofhis father,
he said: 0 respected Guru Nanak, can you please show me this glimpse?
Saint 0 beloved Guru, my son's desire is intense. You show him only. I
shall be satisfied.
Then the Guru held the child's hand and told him to close his eyes.
When he closed his eyes, then he saw that he and Guru Nanak are flying in
the skies. He saw uncountable suns, moons, planets and stars. T\1ere were
many systems that were well organized. They were further and further and far
