In the previous post of Unplugging Mystery related to time Earth, life and God we tried to understand the origination of life, time and earth. Now lets look at the various facts and things which explain the way life goes on this earth. You may also call it the various forms of life on earth and what is the real importance of human life on this earth. Needless to say we will again seek help from the unchallanged and unparralled throne of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji to throw light on what we are actually looking for. Gurbani or the sacred text of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji is the keyword you must know as it would be used many times.

Talking about the various forms of life on earth, there are four types. let look at them one by one:

1. Stone: Stone is the most basic form of life.Many would say that i m talking out of sense by saying that stone or soil is also a living being. As its sense to feel is very very less so neither it cries if we break it or laughs when we pat it. Proof from Gurbani: “PASHU PARATE PATHAR MUGAD KO TAARE” (God can even give mokhsha to animal, spirits, or stones according to what he wills”) Historic proof: The stone bridge build by lord rama..to go to lanka( it was only possible when god’s name was written on it), Stone cannot serve as bridge but when lord’s name was written on it, it served as bridge.

2. Trees: After the stones dissolve into the soil. Then soil transform into the next form of life that is plants. As plants have been proven as living being by science also so no need to discuss it further. Still to tell you all in the jungles of South Africa some trees are killer trees which can kill you by entrapping you if you go near them.

3. Birds and Animals: Next form of life is birds then animals. As we know the feeling of sense is very much their in birds and even more in animals. In case of Birds pegions have been used a lot for sending messages across regions/ countries. Pet dogs and even elephants have provided a friend to man in sea animals dolphins have been loved by humans too.

4. Humans: The most ultimate form of life in being a human being. Human Beings are the sole controllers of this earth. All the inventions in science and even science is the origination of human mind. But the most notable point of being a human is that one gets this form of life very rarely by passing through 84 lakh forms. Proof from Gurbani: “LAKH CHAURASI MEHDNI” (one passes 84 lakh form before one gets this form of life). Before getting human form we pass through:

STONE=> PLANTS => BIRDS => ANIMALS and finally => HUMANS. But you would be wondering that why are we lookig at various forms of life. Yes that’s an important question. THe only motive to give suach a long exaplnantion is to make you recoganise the importance of human life give to us by God. As you saw that after attaining so many materialistic formw we finally get a chance to become Human. So don’t let this form of life go waste. Do good to yourself by meditating on Lord’s Name. Because eating, sleeping, family and all other activities we have done in others forms and are still doing so. That should not be stopped but “PRAANI TU AAYEO LAHA LAEN” (hey humans u all have come here to meditate and go).

So the 5th and Ultimate form of life is God:

5. God: Those who successfully meditate on lord’s name and by his blessing get moksha get illuminated in one light of god. Gurbani: “NANAK LEEN BHAYEO GOBIND SEYO JYO PANI SANG PANI SANG PANI” (person meditating on lord get immersed in god and become enlightened the way water dissolves in water and is indistinguishable). May God bless one and all
