Almost all of us by now, know what is the term Shabad .
And the term Guru also, means the dispeller of darknes, the remover of darkness.
But what type of darkness is, the one which the Guru removes?
Is it the darkness of the night, which our Guru Sahibans refer to?
No, the darkness which the Bani refers, is the univerasl one, which is spread throughout, and covers all the creation below Sach Khand, the land of eternal Light.
And the other darkness, which is referred to, is the individual or collective darkness, in the form of ignorance, superstitions, and as well as, the other outer activities used for God realization.
So there are 2 ways of removing these 2 types of darkness.
Firstly, by getting in the company of the holy, or Sadh kee Sangat, because there, our budh, our vivek, sense of discrimination, of the unreal and real, is awakened and developed.
Once this is done, then naturally, one tries to find the only One everlasting Truth, which is Satpurukh or Satnam.
This is the key to the second and final awareness. So when we turn our attention inwards to find that Truth, again we see nothing but darkness. And this darkness, can not be dispelled by any torch light or bulb, nor thousands of suns and moons together. The inner realms are inmense....
So there in those planes, that Shabad guides the sikh, the soul, the chela ... thus is called Shabad Guru, because it guides the soul with its radiance(divine light) and melodious Sounds(Shabad) emanating from that "attee sundar roop" , right up to its real Home: Sach Khand.
If it was not in the company of the Shabad, the soul can never reach it´s Home, because the darkness there is so thick, that unless one gets hold to that Shabad or Nam, it is impossible otherwise.
Now, we may say, it is fine to hold to the Shabad, but how to do that, or is it possible to do that. Because that Nam is within us, how to reach there or get hold of that Shabad Guru?
Well, the Bani says: awar kaaj tere kitteh na kaam, mil Sadh Sangat aur bhaj kewal Nam.
Just do Nam Simran with love and faith, and we shall sit in the Jahaaz of Nam, and sail safely without any fear, to our Nijh Ghar, Sach Khand.
This is the wadeeayee of Shabad Guru
