Good deeds Vs Naam
Posted by Bharat V Singh on Thursday, 2/26/2004 7:34 AM MST
| Addressing those of us who give much importance to performance of 'seva' and good deeds,I have to say Naam is more important.In themselves all good deeds,acts of charity will ensure temporary pleasures of Swarg or heaven but they will never guarantee salvation or permanent merger with God in order to end the cycle of transmigration of soul.Good deeds must be motivated or accompanied by genuine meditation,Simran and Dhyana on the Name of the Lord,otherwise they are just empty acts of karma with their attendant results.That is why Guru has placed all emphasis on Naam as the first and foremost requisite in human life.Everything else will automatically follow through the infinite power of Naam and Guru's grace.Naam is Truth and Truth is Naam.Therefore concentration on Naam will lead to truthful living,the highest ideal according to Guru Nanak,which will then spontaneously result in true seva and good deeds. |
