That is how the Guru loves his Sikhs. And that the gift he gave us may look like a book - but it's not. Not at all. It's a portal, it's a Stargate. It's an opening into another dimension.
Seva means making myself available to people, being present with everyone at every opportunity, and doing the thing that needs doing in each moment, whatever that may be. The state of mind of a servant is to be alert to his master’s needs, to be very intuitive, and to act without hesitation.

It's human to imitate, but we are also uniquely individual. If it helps you, then what better role model than the Gurus? Humility is not something you can 'act'. Humility happens inside of you when you experience the Infinity inside of yourself. Our Gurus are with us now. They weren't just in the past. Their qualities are inside of us already. Don't 'act' like the Guru, and don't 'act' humble, just act in yourself in each moment to the best of your consciousness.

Miri means commanding the earthly plane and being successful on the earth. Piri means commanding the spiritual plane connecting with your spirit.
Guruka Singh answers this question by saying "don't worry about it." Don't worry if you are spiritually progressing. There is no measurement for it. You just need to keep following your path to spirituality with sincerity and you will go where you need to go.
