Help me I am a rebel

13 Apr 10

Dandout Bandana jee sangat jee,

As you have all probably been reading and experiencing on your own journey, the path of truth is full of complications and pain. As you all know this is all due to one's own karma and dues. We are always tearing down the layers and trying to become more truthful and loving. We experienced a test that we were not even aware of until this morning.

As a child we have always rebelled and been a defiant indivdual. In our teenage years we deliberatley went against the grain. My parents didn't want me to do certain things and act in a certain way. So we rebelled did it anyway. At university we didn't want to fit into the typical Asian community of students, so we rebelled against them, we looked different, acted different and thought very differently. We hated being told what to do, when to do it and how to do it. We became an orthodox Sikh, tied a turban and wore a kirpan. My family didn't particularly want me to do this, so we rebelled and did it anyway. We wasn't brought up as  Sikh, so this is how we chose to express ourselves. We married into a Orthodox Sikh family, my father in law is a very controlling man and enjoys controlling the family. So we rebel and have have our own beliefs and concepts.

All was hukam, all is beautiful and has happened the way it was meant to happen, it is all due to my past deeds, all the pain and sorrow is self-inflicted. We realised that rebelling is another word for ego, our ego leads us to hate authority, control and power over us. Yet all is hukam anyway, we actually have no control over it all anyway, it is all meant to happen that why...............

A little while ago Dhan, Dhan Dassan Das jee, gave us a hukam and we rebelled against it. We fought within us and the ego won. Today, thanks to Jaspal Jee, we realised that we cannot rebel against the hukam from the saints. Their word is the truth, rebelling against maya and koor is accepting the hukam of the saints.

We ask for forgiveness for rebelling aginst the saints for they are a embodiment of love and truth. Rebelling has been a pattern in our life and it has lead us to believe that we are the most insignificant creature that exsists. We have realised that all bad habits etc are a internal rebellion against the God within us. We rebel against being truthful and walking a selfless life.

When we realise our rebellious behaviour and release this we are actually allowing Par Brahm to take over and then we accept his Hukam, this is when we release the ego and our shackles of thinking that we have control.  We then allow Him to work through us, then we are not controlled by maya anymore, we are are not a slave to our ego's and self-indulging behaviours.

So next time we rebel, we have to stop the behaviour and accept that all is the the graceful hukam. We have to be gentle, be kind and go with the hukam, rather than battling against it.

Please keep us at your feet

Thankyou

The best rebillion is the one who rebells against Maya, so if anybody has to rebel, rebel against the Panj Doots: Kaam Krodh Lobh Moh Ahankaar; anybody who wants to rebel then do so against the desires – Trishna; these are your biggest enemies, that is why Bandgi is a fight against Maya. Please keep in your minds always and for ever, with out serving the truth others and also without delivering the truth to others, you will never be able to win over Maya completely; that is why Seva is necessary and most important part of the Bandgi Process. We don’t give any hukam to anyone, because only His hukam prevails, but we do tell you all what is good for you to do and what you need to do. This is one of the ways that we try to deliver the truth to you folks. Delivering and Serving Puran Sat is the key to success on this spiritual path, so please never ever go against it, going for it will make you Nirbhao and Nirvair  and you will become Ik Drisht.
