Overcoming Death - Saadh Sangat - Company of Holy
The Glory of Saints is self evident. As per Dhan Shri Guru Arjan Dev Ji in following words calls saints as beloved of Lord:
ਸੰਤ ਤੁਮਾਰੇ ਤੁਮਰੇ ਪ੍ਰੀਤਮ ਤਿਨ ਕਉ ਕਾਲ ਨ ਖਾਤੇ ॥[1]
संत तुमारे तुमरे प्रीतम तिन कउ काल न खाते ॥
(Your Saints are Your Beloveds; death does not consume them.)
One, WHO HE loves, cannot be
threatened or scared by Death. But again the question is who
HE
loves? Every other person claims to be loved by HIM and present himself
as saint. They all claims vicinity to HIM but then why are they afraid of
Death, why they engage in treachery of fooling masses? When do the so called
saints start doing it? Why they need do it? The answer is they are just
impostors who are just cheating the masses and robbing them. Well, all real
saints utter words which are true, which comes from their realization and
experiences. They say what ever comes from HIM, called ‘Dhur Ki Baani – The Words of HIM’.
And such words are only present in Dhan Shri Guru Granth Sahib Ji. So
if someone attunes to Gurbaani, bow down to Dhan
Shri Guru Granth Sahib Ji he automatically finds himself in the ‘Saadh
Saangat – The Company of Holy and Real Saints’. Else every other
company is just a ‘lie’. Why it is lie since it does not save anyone from
sufferings of Death. Why it is important to do company of holy? Well Dhan
Shri Guru Arjan Dev Ji answers in following words:
संत भगत हरि नामु अराधहि कटीऐ जम की फासी राम ॥
(The Saints and devotees worship the Naam in
adoration, and the noose of Death is cut away.)
Saints worship ‘Naam’ in adoration. They
have no interest in worldly belongings they possess treasure of ‘Naam’
and ‘Naam’
is there only devotion. That’s why when one meets with Holy Saint one is bound
to obtain ‘Naam’ and Dhan Shri Guru Arjan Dev Ji also asks
mortals to permeate in the ‘Naam’ in company of Holy in
following words:
मिलि साधू दीना ता नामु लीना जनम मरण दुख नाठे ॥
(Meeting with the humble, Holy Saint, I obtained the Naam, and
the pains of birth and death left me.)
साधसंगे हरि नाम रंगे संसारु सागरु सभु तरै ॥जनम मरण बिकार छूटे फिरि न लागै दागु जीउ ॥
(Those who are imbued with the Lord's Name, in the Saadh Sangat,
cross over the terrifying world-ocean. The corrupting sins of birth and death
are eradicated, and no stain ever sticks to them again.)
A mortal is always wants to be in
company of others. The idea behind such action is to gain appreciators or
favors. Being appreciated is a reward and to win favors is also a reward. Appreciations
sounds sweet and feeds to ego and favors help to gain unduly advantage over others.
And they all lead to sufferings. But Company of Saadh Sangat rewards an individual
with ‘Kirtan – Lord’s Praises’ which takes him away from sufferings
of Death
as per following words of Dhan Shri Guru Arjan Dev Ji:
साधसंगि कीरतन फलु पाइआ ॥जम का मारगु द्रिसटि न आइआ ॥२॥
(I have obtained the reward
of the Kirtan
of the Lord's Praises, in the Saadh Sangat; Messengers of Death cannot see me now.)
Guruji
is encouraging mortals to join the Saadh Sangat and sing HIS
Glorious Praises in following words:
साधसंगि मिलि हरि गुन गाए जमदूतन कउ त्रास अहे ॥१॥ रहाउ ॥
(Joining the Saadh Sangat
sing the Glorious
Praises of the Lord, and the Messenger of Death will be frightened away.)
And why Guruji is encouraging to
do Company
of Holy, He answers in following words:
साधसंगि बैसि गुण गावहि तह रोग सोग नही जनम मरन ॥१॥ रहाउ ॥
(The Saadh Sangat, sits and sings the Glorious Praises of
the Lord. There is no disease or sorrow there, no birth or
death.)
Mortals in group just chatter non-sense.
It is non-sense since the outcome of gossips is just a missed moment, lost
breaths and wasted opportunities to attune towards The Lord. But Saadh
Sangat does not misuse the precious moments, valuable breaths and prized
opportunity. They sit and only sing HIS Glorious Praises. And this makes
The Lord happy and content as per following words of Dhan Shri Guru Arjan Dev Ji:
सुआमी सुप्रसंन भए जनम मरन दोख गए संतन कै चरन लागि नानक गुन गाई ॥२॥३॥१३२॥
(My Lord and Master is totally
satisfied with me; He has rid me of the pains of death and birth. Grasping hold
of the Feet of
the Saints, Nanak sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord.)
And once HE is happy, HE cuts the noose of Death. That’s why Guruji in above words has asked every one to hold the feet of saints. This will bless an individual with art of singing Glorious Praises of Lord.
