even destroys the creator of the Universe Brahma and Vishnu who the whole world
calls the Lord cannot defeat death. Even the sky the shelter of all will be destroyed by
Death and Time even the ever changing destroyer Shiv Ji cannot over power it.
Everything is in the hands of Time and Death (Kaal) and no one’s body can ever
remain as turn by turn everyone must go. Even after destroying everyone and
everything Death and time (Kaal) is still never satisfied, just as the thirst of fire is
never quenched even by limitless butter.
Although Death and Time (Kaal) cannot be seen but with every passing of time,
hours, days, months and years it is continuously measured. And as it continues its
journey to destroy it casts its web, in which all living creatures are caught up and
without Guru Ji’s grace there is no other way of freeing ones self. Everyone is
influenced by the drive for materialism in which they are unhappy and at the end, all
of creation has not once but many times become the prey of Time and Death (Kaal).
Then that same Lord appoints Demi Gods (Devtas) through Brahma, Vishnu and Shiv
Ji and recreates the whole Universe. Then in time these three leading Demi Gods
bodies are also consumed by Time and Death (Kaal) as it cares for nobody. The
Universe is like a deer and Death is like a hungry lion whose hunger never ends.
That’s why my Beloved! Recognize this world as false, understand the truth from the
lies, and spend night and day meditating on the True Lord as this human life is a
ladder to meet with him.”
Panna 1075: That human who misses this chance, shall suffer the pains of coming
and going in reincarnation. ||2||
So in this way Baba Ji the enlightened congregation, giving them the True Guru’s
priceless teachings and telling them that they and he himself must obey the Lords will
and so no one should feel sad. Listening to these priceless words the devotees were
moved to tears. Everyone with folded hands requested saying, “O Protector of the
poor! Please do bless us give some more time with your self, as coming and going on
this world is within your hands as you have done before. In this way you are the one
who reunites the lost ones with the Creator, so if like before you could fulfill our
request from the Lords abode (Sachkhand), what other blessing would we need? We
would consider ourselves very fortunate.”
Listening to their request Baba Ji again explained saying, “My Beloveds! I have
obeyed your wish once; now don’t force me the second time, as going against my
Lords wills is not good. One should not test their power against His will. As for me
and for you happiness is found in obeying his will, on which you also get my
happiness and blessings.” Then one of Baba Ji’s main disciples said, “O Lord! There
is no difference in you and the Lord.”
Panna 272: O Nanak, there is no difference between the Holy people and God. ||8||7||
Panna 273: O Nanak, the Brahmgiani being is Himself the Supreme Lord God. ||6||
Panna 793: Let no one slander the Saints, because the Saints and the Lord are as one.
Then in sadness and as the last resort the devotees asked Baba Ji to bless them by
gracing one of their disciple students who would sit in their place, whom the devotees
could consider as Baba Ji’s image and they by serving could fulfill their own lives.
