The Highest Form of “LOVE”
The love between the Guru and the Sikh (disciple) is priceless and highest of all other forms of love.
ਪੀਰ ਮੁਰੀਦਾਂ ਪਿਰਹੜੀ ਲਖ ਮੁਲੀਅਨਿ ਕਖੈ ||
In love with the Guru, the sense of ego vanishes.
ਪੀਰ ਮੁਰੀਦਾਂ ਪਿਰਹੜੀ ਹੋਇ ਆਪੁ ਗਵਾਈ ||
Bhai Gurdas Ji Vaaran
Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji says that -
In serving the True Guru with love, one gets united with the Husband Lord and those who have enshrined love and affection for the Guru are honored in the True court.
ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਸੇਵੀ ਭਾਉ ਕਰਿ ਮੈ ਪਿਰੁ ਦੇਹੁ ਮਿਲਾਇ ॥
ਹਰਿ ਵਰੁ ਪਾਇਨਿ ਘਰਿ ਆਪਣੈ ਗੁਰ ਕੈ ਹੇਤਿ ਪਿਆਰਿ ॥ Ang 38
ਸਚੀ ਦਰਗਹ ਮੰਨੀਅਨਿ ਗੁਰ ਕੈ ਪ੍ਰੇਮ ਪਿਆਰਿ ॥ Ang 143
This love between the Guru and the Disciple is otherworldly, the love of the heart and the soul, where the disciple lovingly surrenders his ego and in that love, devotion, trust and surrender, the disciple becomes the Guru and the Guru, the Disciple.
ਗੁਰ ਚੇਲਾ ਚੇਲਾ ਗੁਰੂ ਗੁਰੁ ਚੇਲੇ ਪਰਚਾ ਪਰਚਾਇਆ II
- Bhai Gurdas Ji Vaaran
In that love and union of being, the ultimate Truth is realized and the purpose of human life is fulfilled.
ਸਾਚੁ ਕਹੋਂ ਸੁਨ ਲੇਹੁ ਸਭੈ ਜਿਨ ਪ੍ਰੇਮ ਕੀਓ ਤਿਨ ਹੀ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਪਾਇਓ II
- Guru Gobind Singh Ji
