Benefits of listening - Japji Sahib explained by Osho

Guru Nanak says in Japji Sahib - Suniyai - Listen - By listening ....

Osho explains in this pauri / sutra
Whenever your thoughts become silent, your breath changes, becomes slower. Then your body sits at 90 degree angle, you will notice light energy rising above from the base of spine and you will feel happy. That's why the base of spine is called Merudand. When your energy waves rise up from seventh chakra, you will become connected to universe / Braham.

Suniyai uthsath ka isnaan.
Within the body there are 68 points, from whom the sin is committed. Moving the light energy from one point and taking it to the other point, this is called pilgrimage, not traveling outside to various religious places.

The only bad companion is thought. Thought urges you to commit sin. All sin is committed by thought. Thought is an addiction, it does not have answers.

Listening has the answers. Listening is Dhyana, where there are no thoughts. Listening gives the state of Anand.

Thought is like a small spoon that you are using to measure an ocean. You will fail if you try doing so. Listening is the key.

Understanding of differnce between Religion and Spirituality by Osho Rajneesh

I was fortunate enough to stumble upon the website with MP3 of Japji Sahib Katha / translation by Rajneesh Osho. I had heard years ago that Osho's explanation of Japji Sahib / writing of the founder of Sikhism Guru Nanak, the Guru of Hindu's and Pir of Muslims is by far the best. I loved Osho's way of weaving Guru Nanak's life stories within the explanation giving them new life. I truly appreciate and accept what Osho has said. I have only heard the first two MP3 so far.

Some of his sayings that I loved are as follows
Ek Onkar Satnam completes the Sikh religion. The rest of the Japji is an effort to explain God to people.

The reason we need a Guru is to destroy our ego that I am doing something. Gurprasad - whatever is happening is by God's Grace / Guru's Grace not by my effort.

Hukam means Total acceptance of God's Will.

Philosophy plays with words but the word 'water' can't quench the thirst, a map can't contain the country in it, a painting of a rising sun can't provide light in the darkness. Similarly God can't be found in any religious book as its only an effort to explain God in words and Guru Nanak says that God can't be described.

The website where I heard the MP3's of Osho's explanation of the Japji Sahib of Guru Nanak
