Baba Hari Singh Ji
Many a times I tell myself that when I get older, I will have free time. What will I do with free time you ask? I would read bani and do seva. In reality as we get older we will have other problems to deal with.
We wont be able to do seva, our body will not be able to handle the things we could do in our 20s. So I tell myself start now, but again I ask the same question.
Mahraj says:
ਨੈਨਹੁਨੀਰੁਬਹੈਤਨੁਖੀਨਾਭਏਕੇਸਦੁਧਵਾਨੀ ॥ ਰੂਧਾਕੰਠੁਸਬਦੁਨਹੀਉਚਰੈਅਬਕਿਆਕਰਹਿਪਰਾਨੀ ॥੧॥: (Because of old age your) eyes are watery, the body has become weak, and hair has become milky-white. (Your) throat is tight (due to cough, and other health issues) and cannot utter even a word; now what can (you) do (i.e., nothing – too late!)? ||1|| || (sggs 659).
ਕਬੀਰਾਰਾਮੁਨਚੇਤਿਓਜਰਾਪਹੂੰਚਿਓਆਇ ॥ ਲਾਗੀਮੰਦਿਰਦੁਆਰਤੇਅਬਕਿਆਕਾਢਿਆਜਾਇ ॥੧੩੨॥: Kabeer you have not remembered the one, now your old age had taken over, what can you do now with your aging self?(sggs 1371).
Mahraj reminds use that the time is now when you have life in you. As life shortens day by day, so does our chances to become one with the one.
Happy Thursdays y’all!
