Backward Swimming
In New Zealand a sikh gentleman came to my room after the finish of the evening service. Both Giani Manjit Singh and myself were sitting in the allotted room in Auckland.The gentleman who just came inside, looks like a bit angry with us.He told us that this evening we did Katha meant for jogis and not for the sikhs.We politely told him to have a seat. He obliged us in taking a seat.Some other persons came in.There became a congrigation in our room and I asked the gentleman if the Sidh-Gosat was written by jogis or by the worthy Satguru.He confidently gave the right answer and said that it was written by the Satguru.I requestd him to repeat this answer thrice so that neither he nor any one from the congregation including me can deny this fact.Actually he came midway in Giani's katha. That was the reason of his misunderstating.What I said in the katha is given here for your kind information the worthy congregation.In the Sidh-Gosat the Almighty Satguru answered whatever the Yogis asked. The Yogis asked-------Trei Sat Angul Waee Kahiae Tiss Ka Kawan Adharo-----Pious page 941of SGGS. Dear congregation,without understanding what the Yogis does, we can not understand the Sidh-Gosat at all .Moreover , we are to take the highest step of the ladder that is Sachkhand,this does not mean that we are to remove all the lower steps of the ladder.The yogis asked the different questions and the worthy Satguru answered them all logically.One of their question was that "Trei Sat Angul Waae Kahei Tiss Ka Kawan Adharo"page no. 941 of SGGS .The Yogis claimed that there is the limitation of humanbreath.It comes three plus seven ten fingures from the nose.What is the basis for this ten fingures breath.The wothy Satguru never contradicts it, as it is the reality.Not only the breath, but the whole of the humanbeings and the animels etc. have their limitations but they can mingle with the complete God .He says that a human beings and others can be complete if they merge with the complete God.The worthy Satguru remarks"Karte Ka Kea Sabh Kichh Poora Ghat Wadh Kichh Nahi Nanak Gurmukh Eisa Jane Poore Mahi Smanhi."Pious page 1412.He reply their question in the following way.
"Trei Sat Angul Waae Audho Sun Sach Aharo" This answer is given to Audho, who is the leader of the Yogis, in the following way,that the diet of the breath is the True God. In some other place that is in Raag Maru The worthy Satguru says that" Mean Ki Chapel Sion Jugat Mann Rakhei Udey Na Hans Na Kandh Chhijai " page 991-992 of SGGS. In these pious lines the Almighty Satguru says that if you know how to swim like a fish you can meet the God without giving any difficulty to your body.
Here ," Mean" means the fish,Jugat means the way and Chapel means the sound.In some other pious lines the Almighty Guru claims that --"Mann Tu Jot saroop hai Apna Mool Pachhan"Pious page no.441 of SGGS. Apna Mool Pachhan means to know how to swim backwardly, it is called Backward Swimming.The fish can swim against the current of the water and makes the sound of easiness and naturalness.TheYogis say that in order to get the Yog(the union),you must leave the home and the world , But the worthy Satguru claims that you can achieve the higher goal than the Yogis without leaving home and the world.Satguru Nanak Sahib says that donot leave the world but rather leave the worldliness.The Satguru claims that"Jog Na Bhagwi Kaprhi Jog Na Mailae WaisNanak Ghar Baithian Jog Paei Satgur Kae Updesh" Pious page no. 1420-1421 of SGGS.According to Gurmat Rehat Maryada of Sri Akaal Takht Sahib,we are advised to Sakhshi Naam Japna.If we pronounce the name of Harpal Singh, it comes from the four different stages.All languages of the world almost say the word Dhuni(the sound).The first sound of Harpal Singh comes from the Navel.All sounds are produced from the nabhi(the navel), then this voice comes to hirda(the surat) automatically,then to the throat quickly, and finally to the mouth and is pronounced . There is not the necessity of sitting. You can remember God while working. It is rightly said by the Almighty Guru that " ---------Hath Panv kare Kam Sab Cheet Niranjan Naal"Pious page 1375 of S GGS. It is better if we can sit in the Amrit Wela,but if we are doing the night shift then the worthy Satguru says in Sri Raag that "Je Wela Wakhat Wicharye Tan Kit Wele Bhagati Hoi "Pious page no.35 of SGGS.The practical and wise Guru advises us that we must not think of the time in doing Bhagati. We can do meditation at any time in any way -walking or sitting.While working on the belt in a factory or business, we can use the ear-phones(I learnt this ear-phone system from the white peoples)I put Waheguru C.D.system.I had no difficulity in doing order-picking with the C. D.while I was working with the UPS and Grand and Toy.You can use Waheguru C.D Player System while doing any business.The wise Guru says in Raag Sorath that"Sarwani Suniye,Rasna Gaei Hirday Dhiaei Soi"page no 611 of SGGS .When you say Waheguru,Slowly it goes to your mouth,There is a small hole in your mouth under that is the 10th hidden hole where the Amrit is continously is falling" Ras Amrit Daswen Chuvejay"When you are dreaming the physical body remains in Toronto(for example only)while the Astral body goes to Punjab,Europe,Australia etc.in the world or universe."Nau Duare Paragat Kie Daswan Gupat Rakhaya.Pious page no.922 of SGGS. The tuner is linked with it.It can catch the waves at any time,because the God is sread in Microwaves.Donot get suprised,as it is not only scientific term, but the religious term also as the great Guru says In Gauri Sukhmani Sahib that"Pasreo Aap Hoi Anat Trang." Pious page no. 275 of SGGS. This was the backward swimming in brief.
