Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh, as some of you may know Sikhs have a view of reincarnation of being born many times before you get a chance to be human. The reason for our reincarnations is mostly because of our egos which we have absolutely no control over, without Guru Sahib. Unlike the reincarnations of other religions, Gurmat promotes that no person can by themselves have good enough Karma to ever be free from reincarnation, which is why we need Gurbani and Naam. What many saints, (we only try to stay with what Gurmat says, not endorsing any particular saint) throughout the Sikh faith have said is being free from the 8.4 million lives is only a minor part, as the bigger goal has always been to serve the Guru's Hukam. Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji says "ਰਾਜੁ ਨ ਚਾਹਉ ਮੁਕਤਿ ਨ ਚਾਹਉ ਮਨਿ ਪ੍ਰੀਤਿ ਚਰਨ ਕਮਲਾਰੇ ॥ राजु न चाहउ मुकति न चाहउ मनि प्रीति चरन कमलारे ॥ Rāj na cẖāha▫o mukaṯ na cẖāha▫o man parīṯ cẖaran kamlāre. I do not seek power, and I do not seek liberation. My mind is in love with Your Lotus Feet." (Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Ang 534) As we slowly grow in spirituality, the goal of being freed from reincarnation is gone. as we are free when we are with the Guru, Sach Khand can be anywhere where Dhan Dhan Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji's message is respected and lived by, the truth of the matter is; it's because of the Guru we can even acknowledge any knowledge. All, I will say on this note is Guru Sahib will hopefully free us whenever we are ready to be free; until that time and after that time; let us ask Vaheguru to bless us with following his Hukam. Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh!
