ਅਜਹੁ ਕਛੁ ਬਿਗੜਿਓ ਨਹੀ ਜੋ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਗੁਣ ਗਵਾਈ ॥
ਕਹੁ ਨਾਨਕ ਤਿਹਿ ਭਜਨ ਤਿਹਿ ਕਛੁ ਬਿਗੜਿਓ ਨਹੀ ਅਜਹੁ ॥
"Ajhu kachhu bigrio nahi jo prabh gun gawaee.
Kahu Nanak tih bhajan tih kachhu bigrio nahi ajhu."
'Nothing is truly ruined yet as long as one sings the praises of God.
O Nanak, by such devotion and worship, nothing is spoiled or lost even now.' -Guru Tegh Bahadur
We often find ourselves in a state of being powerless, unable to act, with no control or compulsion and unable to help ourself or change a situation... often blaming external factors.
Caught by lust, anger and attachment; we have forgotten the Eternal... everything seems to be lost and gone.
Nothing is lost yet, says Guru Tegh Bahadur, the Ninth founding Guru of Sikhism in the above shloka... a message that is one of hope and spiritual perseverance.
'There is still time for man to rescue himself. He can yet get across this worldly ocean unscathed. Only if he would care and awaken to the truth. There is still hope for him'.
Hope, truth and devotion!
Remember, God in any name or form is the same. It is all about how you are in your relationship with your God and yourself!
Think.
God bless us all.
