Gurbani Tutor

Bhagta whose caste was Ohri and Japu whose caste was Vansi both came to meet Guru Ji. When they became Guru-disciples, then one day they said: O Beloved Guru Ji, those who are educated understand better and get salvation quickly. How shall we reach the Lord?

Guru Ji: You will reach the Lord by recitation of the Lord's Name with love. But you have to remain alert Do not become irreligious.

Bhagta: What should we do so that we do not become irreligious? Then Guru Ji said: You do two things. One you have to do and one you have not to do.

The one you have to do is service to the holy congregation. With this service, your ego will go and your mind will become crystal. One who loves the holy people loves the Lord.

Second is what you have not to do: 1. Do not talk ill of others.

2. Do not feel jealous of others. 3. Do not be proud and think others as

low.

4. Do not be cruel to poor people. 5. Do not be stubborn. If somebody doesn't listen to you then don't be harsh to him.

6. If by chance you tell a lie, don't try to insist on it and be obstinate.

If you keep yourself away from the six deeds that I have told you not to do and also do service to holy people, earn honestly and share with others, then you won't become irreligious. You will get salvation.
