Introduction
No country can run unless administered by a President or a King. Similarly,
the world cannot run unless administered by a President or a King. So,
we have the Lord, a living Lord. We may call Him the King of kings or the
President of the world comprising the seen as well as the unseen. It is His
extreme Grace that He sent Guru Nanak to this world. See his benevolence
and hJTaciousness. He has made the path ofreligiousness so simple that anybody
who loves the Lord is able to meet the Lord.
He said: The true path towards meeting the Lord is 'Recitation of the
Lord's Name with love'. There cannot be a path simpler than this. Then, see
his hJTaciousness again. He came to this earth in human form to show this
religious path to the people. He did not sit at home in luxury. He undertook
preaching odysseys across the country and neighbouring countries.
This, he did to remove the sufferings of the people, the darkness of the
world, to lift the people from lifelessness, superstitions, mistaken beliefs, useless
rituals and to enthuse people with the love of the Lord. He made much
sacrifice in undertaking the travels in those days when travelling was so
hazardous. But he still travelled far and wide to uplift people and allay their
sufferings. He gave the Lord's love spark to everyone, gave life to people
living lifelessly and cemented the hearts of the people with the Lord.
For a long time, Hath yoga was considered as the spiritual path, and to
tread on the spiritual path, one had to renounce the family and the house and
go to the forests or the mountains for meditation. Even some kings renounced
their kingdoms and went to the mountains for meditation.
Guru Nanak said: Relihrion has to be for everyone and everyone cannot
renounce the family and the house. Moreover, he emphasized that detachment
from the world has to be of the mind and it is not necessary that the body
should renounce the world. Relihriousness is 'Living in the remembrance of
the Lord'.
