Milk-Drinking
In the Great Guru Granth Sahib Ji it was made extremely clear that the Almighty God never takes birth nor dies.He is "Ajooni" Pious page no.1 of SGGS. In "Jaap Sahib" the tenth Nanak confirms that He has no visible sign, He has no caste, creed and without the colour, He has no mother and father that there is no question of birth and death.I fail to understand that even after about 538 years we are unable to take the actual meaning of Bhagat Namedev's Pious Shabad on the priceless page no 1163 of SGGS.Not only Namdev Ji, even Bhagat Ravidas Ji has made a mention "Nimat Nam Deo Dudh Piaya---" Pious page no 487 of SGGS. Two Bhagats have confirmed the same topic that is drinking of the milk by God -almighty.Our limited mind could not understand these pious lines which are high enough to comprehand in their proper terms.Almost all the Panthic books guides us that Sri Namdev has offered the milk to the Almighty God. We are almost at our wits ends to think about this self contradicted statement of ours.The Gurbani is fully right, this means our limited mind or knowledge is definitely faulty.These Pious lines mean something else.Let us ask the Almighty Satguru Nanak Sahib and remove our fix(Dubida).The great Satguru has given the definition of Drinking- Milk.In the Basant Raag that is Basant Mahala 1.Pious page no.1168-69 of SGGS. The Great Satguru says "Garurha Khana Dudh Sion Gadh---".In these Pious lines the wisest Satguru defines that if we remember and recite Gurbani or His Name,we take the meal of strong and powerful milk " Gurmukh Garurh(U) Je Sunae ---"Pious page no.1009 of SGGS. He has given so many Pramans(Proofs) in the Almighty Guru Granth Sahib Ji regarding Gurbani and Garurh. In this Shabad the Almighty Satguru has defined the needle of the gold and the thread of the silver also.This Shabad begins in this way--"Soney Ka Chauka Kanchan Kuar------"The human body becomes like a gold or diamond when we recite Gurbani or His Name.This gold is without of mixing( of copper), hence it becomes pure(Kanchan Kuar) that is bachelor gold or the diamond.Therefore, when we recite Gurbani or His Name,it becomes a needle of gold and the thread of the silver.In other words, It is called the combination of" Shabad and Surat"Hence,the reciting of the Gurbani or His Name is known as the drinking of milk.Actually, this was done by Sri Namdev Ji and not milking the ordinary cow and offering any milk to the Almighty God. Now kindly do the meaning of this Shabad in this context which is as follows in the third paragraph(the third holy Bandh) of Sri Namdev Ji-----Dudh Katorey Gadwe Pani Kapil Gae Namei Duheani--Dudh means Amrit or Gurbani and Katore means in the Surat, with this method Bhagat Namdev Ji had milked the cow of His Name and Gurbani and he offered this to the Almighty God.Kindly drink this milk otherwise You(God-Father) will get angry with me.Take this milk and I am satisfied. Otherwise, the owner of the body(Ghar) will ask me that I have not done my work or job." Karno Huto So Na Kio Preo Lobh Kai Phand---" Pious page no.1428 of SGGS.The Pious lines here mean that whatever job was allotted to you, you have not done that.Now kindly come the Shabad on the Pious page 1163 once again. After the pause, the Great Guru confirms that Sri Namdev has offered the Gurbani or His name to Him and placed it before Him for acceptance(Parwangi). "Tere Bhagat Tere Bhagat Slahin Tudh Ji Har Anik Anek Ananta----Pious page 11 of SGGS. Great Namdev Ji says that one devotee is inside of me(Namdev Ji).God is laughing at Sri Namdev Ji means his false curtain is being broken. "Kiv Koorhey Tutei Pall---"Pious page no. 1 of SGGS.After offering the milk of Gurbani, the devotee is gone inside his body(Ghar) and by going into the Surat, Namdev Ji has the glimpse of God.After His glimpse,Namdev Ji turned into the Accepted-Ones(Manei) that is who has been accepted by the Almighty God.Baura means the accepted one and his powers can not be defined and established.Manei Ki Gat Kahi Na Jae Je Ko Kahe Pichhei Pachhtaei---Pious page no.3 of SGGS.Worldly persons and godly person can not go in the same passage "Bhagatan Tei Sansarian Jorh Kadey Na Aya--" Pious page no.145 of SGGS.In the other place Namdev Ji himself says that his body began to change as he started reciting His Name or Gurbani --" Jeon Jeon Naman Har Gun Uchary Bhagat Jana Ka Dehora Pherei " Pious page no.1164 of SGGS.He is not talking about the Mandir of bricks at all.
