Self-Perpetuating Energy
Excerpt from Yogi Bhajan Lecture, July 21, 2001
The Siri Guru Granth Sahib is a subtle Word. It is a permutation and combination of words in ragas.1 If you properly analyze it and understand it, it is beyond wonders. Slowly people recognize it and come to an understanding of the words. As was said by John, “In the beginning was the Word, and the Word was with God, and the Word was God.” What was, what is, and what shall be, are the same. One thing remains constant, consistent, and carefree, and that is God Himself. God is not a person—it is a Self-Perpetuating Energy. And when you become near Divine, you also become a self-perpetuating energy, and then there is nothing good, nothing bad, nothing wrong, and nothing high.
If you are gold, you will end up as gold. In this attitude of life, karmas do not matter. What matters is the attention you pay to your Creator.
