Bhagati With Gyaan Always




ਸ਼੍ਰੁਤਿ ਮਹਿਂ ਮਹਾਂਵਾਕ ਜਿਮ ਚਾਰ । ਤਿਮ ਜਪੁਜੀ ਮਹਿਂ ਚਾਰ ਉਚਾਰ ।

The Four Great Sayings [Mahavaks listed below] in the Vedas, these four are also said within Japu Ji Sahib.


ਮਿਲ੍ਯੋ ਭਗਤਿ ਸੋ ਗ੍ਯਾਨ ਬਖਾਨਾ । ਕਲ ਮਹਿਂ ਕੇਵਲ ਨਹਿਂ ਸ਼ੁਭ ਜਾਨਾ ।18।

[In Japu Ji] these teachings of wisdom are merged and spoken with devotion [bhagati]. In this Dark Age [Kaliyuga] wisdom by itself is not beneficial.


ਸ਼ੁਭ ਗਤਿ ਤੋ ਕੋਈ ਨਰ ਪਾਵੈ । ਸੁਨਿ ਬ੍ਰਹਮ ਗ੍ਯਾਨ ਬਿਗਰ ਬਹੁ ਜਾਵੈਂ ।

Whatever good position one person obtains, by listening to Divine Wisdom [brahmgyaan] they fall greatly from that.


ਯਾਂਤੇ ਰੂਖੋ ਗ੍ਯਾਨ ਨ ਭਨ੍ਯੋ । ਜਹਿਂ ਕਹਿਂ ਕਹ੍ਯੋ ਭਗਤਿ ਕੇ ਸਨ੍ਯੋ ।19।

Therefore do not only speak of dry wisdom, whenever you speak about it merge it with devotion [bhagati].


Gurpratap Suraj Prakash Granth, author: the Great Poet Santokh Singh

Rut 5, Chapter 50


The Four Mahavaks are:


ਤੱਤ੍ਵਮਸਿ - You are That (Chandogya Upanishad, Sama Veda)

ਅਹੰਬ੍ਰਹਮਾਸਮਿ - I am Braham (Brihadaranyaka Upanishad, Yujar Veda)

ਪ੍ਰਗ੍ਯਾਨਮਾਨੰਦਬ੍ਰਹ੍‌ਮ - Wisdom is Braham (Aitareya Upanishad, Rig Veda)

ਅਯਮਾਤਮਾਬ੍ਰਹਮ - This Atma [Self] is Braham (Mandukya Upanishad, Artha Veda)


Gurpratap Suraj Prakash mentions these are identical in essential meaning to the line, written four times, in Japu Ji Sahib:


ਤੂ ਸਦਾ ਸਲਾਮਤਿ ਨਿਰੰਕਾਰ
