Identifying The Creator (Part-III)
Let us know how does our Creator exist in all the lives according to the Gurbani. On 1169, SGGS, First Nanak writes: ਬਸੰਤੁ ਮਹਲਾ ੧ ॥ ਸਗਲ ਭਵਨ ਤੇਰੀ ਮਾਇਆ ਮੋਹ ॥ ਮੈ ਅਵਰੁ ਨ ਦੀਸੈ ਸਰਬ ਤੋਹ ॥ Basanṯ mėhlā 1. Sagal bẖavan ṯerī mā-i-ā moh. Mai avar na ḏīsai sarab ṯoh. Raag Basant, …
Identifying The Creator (Part-II)
Now it has become clear that our Creator, as per Guru Nanak, is a permeating entity with infinite power and well above the human like entity governed by human feelings and thoughts, because unlike the human, He is infinite, beyond birth or death. As He is addressed as an active Creator, though formless, He remains …
Identifying The Creator (Part-I)
On a scientific measure, the existence of the Creator, expressed in various scriptures, cannot be proved; nonetheless, there is something within the human beings that inspires them to experience the power that is a cause of the world and beyond. In Sikhi, though that entity is addressed mostly as masculine, it is also made clear …
Beyond The Curtain
Baffled and frustrated with the competition set up in the worldly materialistic pursuits, the mortals prefer materialistic gains to divinity. If somehow success dawns in their pursuits, they get puffed up with it and offer very enigmatic responses to the questions referred to divinity. The lenses of their eyes perceive everything according to their successes …

About
Gursoch is a nonprofit society dedicated to spread the message conveyed in Sri Guru Granth Sahib. Its members are not interested to promote their own agenda at all. While doing so, if any reader feels disagreeing with the way we understand the Gurbani, it is our pleasure to respect his/her views. We strongly believe that late Dr. Sahib Singh, Late Manmohan Singh, late Bhai Veer Singh and Dr.Taran Singh have done tremendous job in interpreting the Gurbani though about some verses we have different views. As inspired by the Gurbani, we don’t want to indulge in any kind of debate about it; therefore, we entreat forgiveness from those, who think they know better than the rest of the people and who have tried to understand the Gurbani to share with others. Those who are interested to get published on this site, must send their articles through email to gursoch@yahoo.com. There will be a provision in future for such writers to post their articles directly but under supervision.
We don’t have any alliance with any group, organization and party; therefore, we certainly will endorse none.
We are not here to influence anyone or convert anyone; our entire goal is to share what we have learned from the Gurbani and how we got improved by merely trying to put it in practice slowly. The Gurbani is not written to control people to bow to certain dogmatic restrictions, but it is an expression of its writers’ authentic and righteous experience. Comprehending completely the subtle ideas expressed in the Gurbani, certainly requires the same state of mind of those who penned down it: Bhagatas and the Gurus. Merely weaving anecdotes around any shabda is not fair. We verify that the Gurbani does miracles indeed; we have seen some people, having no merit, turning into virtuous ones through the Gurbani. As Harpreet Singh from Ludhiana says,” If a few get changed through the Guru’s message, the aim of introducing the Gurbani in detail is fulfilled”.
We hope that you will enjoy the Gurbani-centered site,”www.gursoch.com” and recommend it to those, who are heartily interested with empirical attitude to change through it. And, those, who feel they know better themselves and who are eager to connote every word, used in the Gurbani, to debate with anomalous reasoning, have our best wishes also. Gurdeep Singh, a member of Gursoch team, has translated Sri Guru Granth Sahib investing around seven and half years hoping to put it on the Internet for those, who have difficulty to understand Sri Guru Granth Sahib in original. Slowly, posting on the Internet will start soon with Akalpurakh’s blessings. We thank all those good people, who have unconditionally supported this project.
We also thank you for visiting this site; your comments will be welcomed.
