My five spiritual truths

1. There are only two mutually exclusive states we can exist in:

SatNaam (infinite and joyful) or Ego (finite and suffocating).


2. Seva (service) immediately takes us away from state of ego and closer to state of SatNaam (ceaseless state of which is called simran).


3. There is no Hell - only how far we are from our heavenly innate nature of immortal Truth, pure Consciousness and deep Bliss.


4. We are *unconditionally* loved - doesn't matter whether we are religious, spiritual, agnostic, atheist or simply mixed up.


5. Thoughts become our (perception of) reality so only think positive thoughts .... and there ain't nothing more positive than SatNaam :)

Does not thinking negative thoughts and only thinking positive thoughts mean that we should ignore the unfortunate. Apparently some people think so. I feel that we have to acknowledge that not every one is always in a happy situation. Sikhism seems to be all about seva and helping others out, but is their a risk of being pulled in when extending a helping hand? Many of us want to insulate ourselves so that we don't come in contact with anything negative, but that seems almost hardhearted?
