GURU NANAK CHAMATKAR PART-II<br />

world is a marvel of the Lord, he accepts the Lord's will. His mind remains<br />

fixed on the one point, "Whatever the Lord does, accept it as good". So the<br />

person who is already in the remembrance of the Lord with 'attention and<br />

love' perceives that whatever happens is the Lord's will. In this way his mind<br />

will stay on one point "Whatever the Lord does, accept it as good". This one<br />

point will be a dot that is there but as if not there.<br />

Now the seeker ofthe Lord who is in constant recitation and remembrance<br />

ofthe Lord's Name is centred on one point of time, space and the Lord's will.<br />

He has reached an end ofthe visible world. Beyond this point is one step, the<br />

Lord. We cannot go beyond by ourselves. Only a marvel ofthe Lord can pull<br />

us towards Him. <strong>Guru</strong> <strong>Nanak</strong> has called that pull as 'Grace'.<br />

Giving an example: When we boil water it <strong>com</strong>es up to 212 deh'Tees but<br />

still it is fluid. It is not being transformed into steam (or the unseen air).<br />

Something is required that will transform the water into steam. Scientists have<br />

named it 'Latent Heat'. Ifyou see the temperature of water it remains at 212<br />

deh'Tees only. It is not heated more. But there is something by virtue of that<br />

the water is transformed into steam.<br />

Similarly, wheh the water is cooled it remains at 32 deh'Tees and be<strong>com</strong>es<br />

ice. Water is a fluid. Ice is solid. The temperature is the same. The marvel that<br />

has transformed the liquid water into solid form is also called latent heat.<br />

[This is not mentioned here as an argument. It is an example.]<br />

Similar is the case of transformation of mind from the seen world to the<br />

unseen. This is a marvel of the Lord. This is the Lord's h'Tace.<br />

That means we have to rise above time and space by recitation and<br />

remembrance ofthe Lord's Name with love and attention and keep the Lord's<br />

will in mind. That will take us to an end of this visible world. From there the<br />

Lord's h1Tace will pull us into a blissful life of ecstasy and rapture.<br />

We will get out of the cycle of births and deaths.<br />

Philosophy has given us the knowledge of the Lord.<br />

But <strong>Guru</strong> <strong>Nanak</strong> gave us the real and easy stairs to meet the Lord. He<br />

caught us by the arm and said: 0 dear,<br />

See! Here He is. This is He. Just now is He. Make this life 'A life of<br />

Blossom'.<br />
