Many of us, we may wonder why our Guru Sahibans, stress exclusively on Nam Bhakti.....
The reason is that, any other activity apart from Nam Bhakti, is just to inspire us to go ahead in spirituality....but that it is all. We may be performing some types of good karmas, like doing several types of sevas, like other activities which we all know.... But these things are done by the body and in a few cases with the mind.... so all these at the most can take us up to the region of Braham, and that´s it.
On the other hand, Nam Bhakti is done by the soul, and by the mind also to an extent. But in this case, as Guru Nanak in JapJi Sahib says : when the body becomes dirty, we may wash it with water and soap, but when the mind and soul become polluted, only Nam Bhakti can wash it.
Why is this so, that only Nam can wash our mind and soul? Because, apart from Nam Bhakti any other things we do, become karmas for us, which can be good or bad, in this case are good karmas, but after all are karmas... at the most we can go to Baikunth or Swarg.... but never reach Parbraham.
But Nam Simran, is a seva performed by the soul, and this type of Bhakti carries the infinite blessings of Wahiguru, His power, His love, His daya Meher, His Bakshish... which purify our souls, makes us more humble, make us live in His bhaana; our haume or ego is killed, powerful enemies as mind and kal are defeated, which otherwise could never be possible...and in the end, we reach safe and sound in our Nij Ghar, Sach Khand.
And the most beautiful thing during all this process is that, that Pooran Sant Satguru, whom we met through the grace and will of Wahiguru(that is why Guru Arjun Dev says in Raag Soohee: Nanak Ko Prabh Bhay Kirpala, Poora Satgur paaya, which means: By the Grace of the Lord, I came to the shelter of a Perfect Living Master, or a Gurmukh, or we can say Sadh Kee Sangat, it is the same), thus got the Gurprasad from Him, and so He is always accompanying us in our inner journey, so that we may know that we are not alone, but we are under His guidance and protection up to the end, in His Darbar.
Or is that, we feeble, weak, helpless, limited, moorakhs, full of "avaguns",(full of vices, this is our actual condition ),think that we can reach Wahiguu Akal Purukh by ourselves?
At every step, there is nothing, but His Daya Meher being showered, so let us be humble beggars at His door,and spread our jholees, to collect His unlimited Bakshish as much as possible.....
And so once again, what is that spreading our jholees?
It is nothing as simple as : doing Nam Simran of the Gurprasad, got from Sadh Kee Sangat....
