Sloko Nano
There are 2 Sloko granths. One is Sloko Moto which is composed by Pir Shamsh. This Sloko has 240 - four line stanzas or a quadrants. Another Sloko is written by Pir Sadardin which contains 120 quadrants. Basically the contents of these Slokos are the advices to the murids to live a balanced life, stay away from wrong doings and embrace right things in life. Keep your actions pure to achieve Salvation. I will be picking different quadrants from time to time and explain the meanings contained in these quadrants. In this article I have picked a quadrant from Pir Sadardin’s Sloko Nano and it goes this way:
Naam liya so ati ganaa,
Ane Prem Pida na laaye,
Eto dhuri uper lipna,
Jem futa mundal bajaye re.
Pir Sadardin tells us when you remember your lord and take his name innumerable times but fail to put LOVE AND EMOTION in the prayer, it is similar to someone trying to put plaster on sand or playing a broken drum.
The message here is, the effective prayer is, when you pray with LOVE AND EMOTION. Then he compares the prayer to someone putting plaster on sand. A plaster is a mixture of cement, fine sand and water which stick to the solid surface like bricks, concrete block etc. But it will never hold a grip on sand and it will disintegrate and go to waste. Another comparison is given is when you play a broken drum which will never sound good.
So the question comes to mind is how can we develope LOVE AND EMOTION. It just does not come by thinking. You have to take certain effective actions which will in time evolve as TRUE LOVE AND EMOTION. There are three things that comes to my mind which can help.
1. Have true and solid faith in the Imam of the time.
2. Attend Jamat khana regularly and pray regularly.
3. Pay your Dasond regularly and with happiness.
God has set a system where everything evolves at its own speed. You sow a seed to grow flowers, it will take its time given by nature and blossom when ready. A chicken hatches the eggs in 21 days and then the chicklets are born. In the same way as you follow the three advices above you will reap the fruits as they evolve in time given by nature. God has created the LAWS OF NATURE and they always work. IT JUST TAKES TIME.
MAKE A WISH FOR ANYTHING YOU WANT WITH THE FULL BELIEF FROM WITHIN YOU, GOD WILL MAKE IT HAPPEN, AND IT WILL BE DELIVERED IN TIME. YOU HAVE TO HAVE PATIENCE AND TRULY BELIEVE IN IT.
