Most of us know that, we can not exist in the creation without creating karma or without reaping it. We are always busy either creating or paying for it. Karmas can be good or bad. Good karmas give us a temporary and a limited happiness, at most it takes us up to Swarg or Baikunth. On the contrary, with bad karmas we suffer. In any case, good karmas can be viewed as golden chains on us, and bad karmas as iron chains on a prisoner. By all means, we are prisoners without any freedom nor real happiness nor wisdom. We are prisoners between the four walls of the physicall , mental, astral and causal bodies. And while being prisoners, we go on gathering more and more dirt on us. Such is the pitifull condition of the "jeeva".
Seeing this painfull condition of the soul, He came down to our human level, to talk to us about Himself, to remove our agyanta, our ignorance and brahams, at the same time infuse His knowledge and love in us, for Him. There was not, and is no other way. Only humans can make humans understand. If He was supposed to come as birds, serpents or cows...or any other lower specie, first of all we do not know their language, and secondly, let us think rationally, if man is considered the top of creation...why would Sache Badshah, Satpurush, Kul Malik go below the level of mankind. Are we not irrational by thinking in that way ? And still we say, we are the most intellectual... What to say, of those who worship paper, stone, or metal idols, which have no conscioussness in them. Frankly speaking, Wahiguru is the highest level of consciousness... why would He degrade Himself in the lower forms? It is all our manmukhta.
From our Gurus, we have seen, that whenever He decides to come to our level, it has been always in the human form, like Guru Nanak and His 9 succesors, or Kabir Sahib, Guru Ravi Das, Tulsi Sahib, Bhagat Nam Dev, etc.... On the contrary, when the hindu deity of lord Vishnu, has come, he has adopted the form of a tortoise, and some other forms. But this is because, the hindu trinity and their gods are from a level much more lower than Satpurush. Thiers is the job to keep the souls trapped in the creation, to keep it running.
One more thing, they never mention anything such as Nam, Amrit Bani or Shabad. Why? Because they themselves do not know anything about it. And so if they themselves do not know, how can they talk about worshhiping it?
This is the major difference, between sikhee or Gurmat and the rest of worldly so called religions. While on the other side, if we take the teachings or banis of any of these Gurus named above, all talk about this one truth : Nam or Shabad, of which our souls are like rays from the Sun.
And so, Sach Khand is our true home, as the bani says, Sach Khand vaseh Nirankar. So if our heavenly Father is in Sach Khand, naturally our destiny has to be there. It can not be paradises, Swargs or Baikunths, which is after all in the boundary of Parlay and Mahaparlay.
Ther is no other power in the creation, other than the power of Nam to literally burn the karmas. That is why our Gurus, told us to do only Nam Bhakti.
Why?
Beacuse, by doing it, (Nam Bhakti or abhyass) we incurr in no new karma and secondly, we literally burn or wash the infinite number of our karmas which we have comittted and collected, since we stepped in maya and creation, the moment we left our true home of Sach Khand.
Such is the greatness of our Gurus and Nam. There is nothing superior, or comparable, Shabad is unique, and is the reason or cause of everything else.
Shabad is the dynamic state of Satnam or Wahiguru, through which He is present everywhere.
Wahiguru kee fateh.
