Dear Members, Today's speaking tree article in TIMES speaks something about the Alignment of Individual with Hukum to attain inner peace by Sh.Harvinder Pal Singh.
Here is the Link: https://timesofindia.indiatimes.com/blogs/toi-edit-page/align-with-the-hukum-to-attain-inner-peace/
Hukam is just another law of the universe, as are the laws of gravity, light and sound. ‘Hukamey andar sabko, bahar hukam na koe’ – everyone is subject to this law and no one is beyond it. It is through this hukam that you experience bliss and grief. But the mind creates a fantasy world of its own and prefers to live in that dream. Actions that please the mind are accepted; it complains when things do not go its way. The mind rejects the cosmic reality represented by the hukam and wants the universe to behave according to its own way. A conflict thus arises between what is happening inside us and the world outside.
If joy and sorrow come from the same hand, why then make a difference between the two. They will lose their impact the day you realise this. ‘Jinhey pashantha hukam, kadey na rovai’ – those who recognise the Lord’s command, never weep. The universe is not against us, it is we who are resisting it. Aligning with the hukam will only assist in harmonising us with the Divine will and attaining inner peace.
Sri Guru Padaravindarpana MastuKameswara
