ਚਿੰਤਾ ਤਾ ਕੀ ਕੀਜੀਐ ਜੋ ਅਨਹੋਨੀ ਹੋਇ ॥
ਇਹੁ ਮਾਰਗੁ ਸੰਸਾਰ ਕੋ ਨਾਨਕ ਥਿਰੁ ਨਹੀ ਕੋਇ ॥੫੧॥
Chintaa Taa Ki Kijiye Jo Anhoni Hoye |
Eh Maarag Samsaar Ko Naanak Thir Nahin Koe | 51 |
Let the worry enter in the chambers of thy mind,
Only if will occur something impossible of any kind.
O Naanak, this path to the world-life and universe
Truly is unsteady, keep in thy mind this verse.
Commentary:
Guru Ji says not to worry about something so predictable: the everchanging nature of universe and world and people, it is impossible that they can stay forever like the same as they were before. The road of world is unstable, we need to remember this and live in peace and go with the flow, but without being idle. We need to act according to our karma and dharma. For example, if we are writers or painters or businessmen or businesswomen, we must continue to do so with love. Only thing that Guru Ji advices us to do is to stabilize our mind in the Divine or the eternal Truth, so that our faith and devotion never waver.
Have a great day
Jai Sri Hari and Satnaam Sri Waheguru

Jai Shri Hari!
1. How to prepare my mind and body for a deep sleep and wake up energetic the next day?
2. How to reduce the sleeping hours to focus more on spiritual practices?
3. How to wake up early without using an alarm when you have slept late due to some unavoidable circumstances (like had a heavy dinner or used digital gadgets at the late night)?
4. How to make it a consistent habit?
Thanks.
Har Har Mahadev!
Edit: As I am not a premium member, I am very sorry that I can't read your answers in the comments. So, please I request you to answer in the reply section. Thank you.
Can anyone give me the answers written in the comment section?
😊 I think they are good questions btw
1. Take yourself to a sweet place emotionally before going to sleep. Think of your Ishta with immense love.
2. I think this is a mind question. Our body takes the amount of sleep it needs. But mind always tells stories about time we are sleeping. You want a well rested body to function, right!?
3. Decide that you want to do it. Then just do it.
4. Just do it . One day at a time till it becomes a habit.
Here are some great quotes, hope one of them clicks with you:
"Any moment might be our last. Everything is more beautiful because we're doomed. You will never be lovelier than you are now. We will never be here again." – Homer, The Iliad
"You never really understand a person until you consider things from his point of view... Until you climb inside of his skin and walk around in it." – Harper Lee, To Kill A Mockingbird
"To go wrong in one's own way is better than to go right in someone else's." – Fyodor Dostoevsky, Crime and Punishment
"Human suffering anywhere concerns men and women everywhere." – Elie Wiesel, Night
Hope you like one of these. 🙂
