GURU NANAK CHAMATKAR PART - " 391 knowledge. Secondly, they have said: When our mind feels some wondrousness, then it becomes tranquil for some moments i.e. it stops thinking, knowing and perceiving. At that timewe feel ecstasy. We feel the presence of the Infinite, Inaccessible and Limitless Lord. Butthis happens for a few moments only. It doesn't stay incessantly. Thirdly, our intellectual mind cannot perceive the Lord till the mind is bound by time and space because the Lord is above time and space. The intellectual mind has jurisdiction up to time and space. Hence it cannot feel the Lord. Now let us come to Guru Nanak's doctrine where he gave knowledge of the Lord and the practical way to meet the Lord. It appears he possessed all awareness of philosophy. But it was through real spirituality and perceptual knowledge. According to Guru Nanak the Lord reveals Himself in His Name and in nature and recitation of His Name with love or sinf:,>ing His praises with or without music or seeing the wondrous scenes of nature one feels super consciousness or elevation of mind. The Guru called it ecstatic sensation. The mind rises above time and space. In the Holy Scripture Guru Granth Sahib and the writings ofBhai Gurdas different stages of this ecstasy or rapture are mentioned. Here we need not delve upon those. We might just say that super consciousness is a higher sense or so to say the sixth sense wherein our human soul gets a sensation of the presence of the Lord or so to say gets a touch of the Supreme soul. In these five hundred years Guru Nanak is the only prophet whose soul was fully immersed in the Supreme soul. He had the incessant sensation of the presence of the Lord in his mind, heart and body and he described it to the world. He did not go into argumentation of specifics of time and space. But the practical way ofmeeting the Lord that he told us is to rise above the sphere of time and space of philosophy and immerse the human soul with the Supreme soul. Philosophy tells us that we can get the incessant sensation ofthe presence of the Lord, if our mind can rise above the sphere of time and space or if the mind becomes tranquil, then our human soul will meet the Supreme soul. See, Guru Nanak's three marvels on these three aspects of the mind. Time: Time is passing in moments, past, present and future. Present becomes past and the future becomes present.
