Sikhism And Life On Other Planets


Recommended Posts

https://www.rt.com/viral/341617-new-planets-discovered-life/ Don't let the title to mislead you, but they found some 3 new Earth-sized planets which makes me curious and both excited as it feels like we are closer and closer to find life. What's Sikhism's view on life or "Aliens", I know that this is very stupid, but I am just curious because I believe that the Guru Granth mentioned about devotees on other planets.

Life on other planets exists in spirit form. Maya is just an illusion. There is life on this planet which we can't see with our eyes but we can with our inner eye. What we see is just an illusion, sort of like a computer program. Recent discoveries confirm this. We also turn into spirit form after death. That is when we meet the jam dhoots and dharam raaj. Self realisation by constant simran awakens the mind so that we have visions and believe in the unseen.Yes its hard work getting to that stage. However that is why we have Sri Guru Granth Sahib to take guidance from.
There is so much out there that baffles the mind. This life has immense power and this life can decide to stay hidden or manifest itself in material form to either guide us or lead us astray. This depends on whether it is evil or good.

It is only life on earth which requires water and food. Hence we have been provided by these by God. These commodities are not present on other planets. We have been there too possibly in some past life. Due to our karams or choice we have chosen or been sent to earth in human form. Performing bhagti will enable us to earn our own sustenance which we will eat in order to survive on other planets.

There is a line in Gurbani which says if you dont plant the seed of naam here, what will you eat in the future? It is Naam dhi kamayi which we have come to get here so that we may be able to feed on it and survive in the future.

ਪਾਤਾਲ ਲਖ ਆਗਾਸਾ ਆਗਾਸ ॥

पाताला पाताल लख आगासा आगास ॥

Pāṯālā pāṯāl lakẖ āgāsā āgās.

There are nether worlds beyond the nether worlds and lacs of skies over skies.

ਓੜਕ ਓੜਕ ਭਾਲਿ ਥਕੇ ਵੇਦ ਕਹਨਿ ਇਕ ਵਾਤ ॥

ओड़क ओड़क भालि थके वेद कहनि इक वात ॥

Oṛak oṛak bẖāl thake veḏ kahan ik vāṯ.

The scriptures say one thing: searching for God's limits and bounds, (without success) people have grown weary.

ਸਹਸ ਅਠਾਰਹ ਕਹਨਿ ਕਤੇਬਾ ਅਸੁਲੂ ਇਕੁ ਧਾਤੁ ॥

सहस अठारह कहनि कतेबा असुलू इकु धातु ॥

Sahas aṯẖārah kahan kaṯebā asulū ik ḏẖāṯ.

The Semitic scriptures say that there are eighteen thousand worlds, but in reality there is only one essence; that the Lord is limitless.

ਲੇਖਾ ਹੋਇ ਤ ਲਿਖੀਐ ਲੇਖੈ ਹੋਇ ਵਿਣਾਸੁ ॥

लेखा होइ त लिखीऐ लेखै होइ विणासु ॥

Lekẖā ho▫e ṯa likī▫ai lekẖai ho▫e viṇās.

If there be any account of His creation, then man would finish while writing.

ਨਾਨਕ ਵਡਾ ਆਖੀਐ ਆਪੇ ਜਾਣੈ ਆਪੁ ॥੨੨॥

नानक वडा आखीऐ आपे जाणै आपु ॥२२॥

Nānak vadā ākẖī▫ai āpe jāṇai āp. ||22||

O Nanak! Call Him great. He Himself knows His Own-self.

Sikhni777 quoted:

"There is a line in Gurbani which says if you dont plant the seed of naam here, what will you eat in the future? It is Naam dhi kamayi which we have come to get here so that we may be able to feed on it and survive in the future."

ਜਿਨੀ ਐਸਾ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਨ ਚੇਤਿਓ ਸੇ ਕਾਹੇ ਜਗਿ ਆਏ ਰਾਮ ਰਾਜੇ ॥

जिनी ऐसा हरि नामु न चेतिओ से काहे जगि आए राम राजे ॥

Jinī aisā har nām na cẖeṯi▫o se kāhe jag ā▫e rām rāje.

They, who did not contemplate on such a Name of God, why did they come in this world?

ਇਹੁ ਮਾਣਸ ਜਨਮੁ ਦੁਲੰਭੁ ਹੈ ਨਾਮ ਬਿਨਾ ਬਿਰਥਾ ਸਭੁ ਜਾਏ ॥

इहु माणस जनमु दुल्मभु है नाम बिना बिरथा सभु जाए ॥

Ih māṇas janam ḏulambẖ hai nām binā birthā sabẖ jā▫e.

Very difficult to obtain is this human birth and without the Name, it all goes in vain.

ਹੁਣਿ ਵਤੈ ਹਰਿ ਨਾਮੁ ਨ ਬੀਜਿਓ ਅਗੈ ਭੁਖਾ ਕਿਆ ਖਾਏ ॥

हुणि वतै हरि नामु न बीजिओ अगै भुखा किआ खाए ॥

Huṇ vaṯai har nām na bīji▫o agai bẖukẖā ki▫ā kẖā▫e.

Now, in the opportune season, man sows not God's Name. What will the hungry eat, hereafter?

ਮਨਮੁਖਾ ਨੋ ਫਿਰਿ ਜਨਮੁ ਹੈ ਨਾਨਕ ਹਰਿ ਭਾਏ ॥੨॥

मनमुखा नो फिरि जनमु है नानक हरि भाए ॥२॥

Manmukẖā no fir janam hai Nānak har bẖā▫e. ||2||

The way-ward are born again. Such is the will of God, O Nanak.

VAHEGURU JI KA KHALSA, VAHEGURU JI KI FATEH

Vaaran Bhai Gurdas Ji

੩੬ : ਜ਼ਾਹਰੀ ਕਲਾ।

ਪੁਛੇ ਪੀਰ ਤਕਰਾਰ ਕਰਿ ਏਹ ਫਕੀਰ ਵਡਾ ਅਤਾਈ।

The devte and devia are extra terrestrial beings. They have been known under many names and forms all around our planet over many ages shaping human existstance as we know it today due to the technogy thy posses and the higher intelligence they have than our human form. However they too just like us humans have to battle with the panj chor to attain waheguru.

Like exists on other planets, Guru Arjun Dev Ji in his infinite wisdom wrote in Sukhmani sahib about many millions of fields of Karma, pretty much telling us theere are other species doing the same battle against the 5 demons we are. Not to mention Guru Nanak Dev Ji's journey onto other planets.

why do we doubt Guru ji when he has given us the ultimate truth? ... He has said Akal Purakh has created the joons and plantlife is within that, only now science is catching on

http://www.theguardian.com/environment/radical-conservation/2015/aug/04/plants-intelligent-sentient-book-brilliant-green-internet

people have been born with 100% recall of their previous janam as a human and known things that only that person knew .... and still we have blinkers on

We got upset when that American Pastor said SIkhi was from the devil , part of Hinduism etc and yet we still do not take Guru ji words to heart ...such is our accursed minds

Waheguru ji sanu baksh devo...Naam dan ... Bharosa dan devo

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
