What causes our suffering?
7
ਅੰਦਰਰ ਸਹਸਾ ਦੁਖੁ ਹੈ ਆਪੈ ਰਸਰਰ ਧੰਧੈ ਮਾਰ ॥ ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਇ ਸੁਤੇ ਕਬਰਹ ਨ ਜਾਗਰਹ ਮਾਇਆ ਮੋਹ ਰਪਆਰII
Within the self is the pain of doubt;
engrossed in worldly affairs, they are killing
themselves.
Asleep in the love of duality, they never
wake up; they are in love with, and attached
to Maya. 508
8
ਇਹੁ ਮਨੂਆ ਅਰਤ ਸਬਲ ਹੈ ਛਡੇ ਨ ਰਕਤੈ ਉਪਾਇ ॥ ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਇ ਦੁਖੁ ਲਾਇਦਾ ਬਹੁਤੀ ਦੇਇ ਸਜਾਇ ॥
This mind is very powerful; we cannot
escape it just by trying.
In the love of duality, people suffer in pain,
condemned to terrible punishment.33
9
ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਇ ਸੁਖੁ ਪਾਏ ਨ ਕੋਈ ॥
Through the love with duality, no one has
found peace. 123
10
Duality
• Root cause of Pain and Suffering
• Is the thing that separates us from God
• Leads us in to Maya
• When we think we did something
• Triggered by Desire
• Fortified by Attachment
• Forgetting God
• Failure or seeing the family as taught by Gurmat
• Gurmantra is the cure for Duality
11
We can never escape
Maya while in Maya.
It wraps all around us. 12
ਮਾਇਆ ਰਿਰਿ ਸਹਜੁ ਨ ਊਪਜੈ ਮਾਇਆ ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਇ ॥ Within Maya, the poise of intuitive balance is
not produced. Maya leads to the love of
duality. 68
13
While the body is rooted in Maya, the Mind
has the ability to escape. Gurmat teaches us
how to free this Mind.
14
ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਇ ਭਿਰਹ ਰਬਖੁ ਮਾਇਆ ॥ In the love of duality, the mortals wander
through poisonous Maya. 366
15
ਹਮ ਕੀਆ ਹਮ ਕਰਹਗੇ ਹਮ ਮੂਰਖ ਗਾਿਾਰ ॥ ਕਰਣੈ ਿਾਲਾ ਰਿਸਰਰਆ ਦਜੂੈ ਭਾਇ ਰਪਆਰੁ ॥ ਮਾਇਆ ਜੇਿਡੁ ਦੁਖੁ ਨਹੀ ਸਰਭ ਭਰਿ ਥਕੇ ਸੰਸਾਰੁ ॥ I have done this, and I will do that - I am an
idiotic fool for saying this! I have forgotten
the Doer of all; I am caught in the love of
duality. There is no pain as great as the pain
of Maya; it drives people to wander all
around the world, until they become
exhausted. 39
16
ਗਰਰਬ ਅਟੀਆ ਰਤਿਸਨਾ ਜਲਰਹ ਦੁਖੁ ਪਾਿਰਹ ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਇ Filled with arrogance, they burn with desire;
they suffer in the pain of the love of duality.
38
17
ਰਤਿਸਨਾ ਮਾਇਆ ਮੋਹਣੀ ਸੁਤ ਬੰਧਪ ਘਰ ਨਾਰਰ ॥ ਧਰਨ ਜੋਬਰਨ ਜਗੁ ਠਰਗਆ ਲਰਬ ਲੋਰਭ ਅਹੰਕਾਰਰ ॥ ਮੋਹ ਠਗਉਲੀ ਹਉ ਮੁਈ ਸਾ ਿਰਤੈ ਸੰਸਾਰਰ ॥੧॥ The enticing desire for Maya leads people to
become emotionally attached to their children,
relatives, households and spouses.
The world is deceived and plundered by riches,
youth, greed and egotism.
The drug of emotional attachment has
destroyed me, as it has destroyed the whole
world. ||1|| 61
18
What is the cure ?
19
ਰਤਨ ਤੰੂ ਰਿਸਰਰਹ ਰਜ ਦੂਜੈ ਭਾਏ ॥ 160
Those who are in love with duality forget
You.
20
ਸੋ ਐਸਾ ਹਰਰ ਨਾਮੁ ਜਪੀਐ ਮਨ ਮੇਰੇ ਜੁ ਮਨ ਕੀ ਰਤਿਸਨਾ ਸਭ ਭੁਖ ਗਿਾਏ ॥ 89
Chant that Name of the Lord, O my mind,
which shall drive out all hunger and desire
from your mind.
21
ਰਿਟੇ ਰਜਨ ਕੇ ਕਪੜੇ ਮੈਲੇ ਰਿਤ ਕਠੋਰ ਜੀਉ ॥ ਰਤਨ ਮੁਰਖ ਨਾਮੁ ਨ ਊਪਜੈ ਦੂਜੈ ਰਿਆਪੇ ਿੋਰ ਜੀਉ ॥ ਮੂਲੁ ਨ ਬੂਝਰਹ ਆਪਣਾ ਸੇ ਪਸੂਆ ਸੇ ਢੋਰ ਜੀਉ ॥੩॥
Those who wear white clothes, but have
filthy and stone-hearted minds, may chant
the Lord's Name with their mouths, but they
are engrossed in duality; they are
thieves.They do not understand their own
roots; they are beasts. They are just
animals! ||3|| 751
22
ਦੂਜਾ ਭਰਮੁ ਗੁਰ ਸਬਰਦ ਜਲਾਏ ॥
Doubt and duality are burned away by the
Word of the Guru's Shabad.
23
ਰਜਨੀ ਇਕ ੁਪਛਾਰਣਆ ਦੂਜਾ ਭਾਉ ਿੁਕਾਇ ॥
Those who recognize the One renounce the
love of duality. 38
