Explore Rag Ramkali: https://bit.ly/rag-ramkaliExplore Rag Maru: https://bit.ly/rag-maruRag Ramkali evokes compassion, and Rag Maru is associated with enthusiasm and zeal. Rag Ramkali advises the mind to take the support of IkOankar through reflection on Nam (Divine-Identification) to gain freedom from flawed thinking. Rag Maru emphasizes the comfort and liberation found in Nam. Guru Teghbahadar Sahib warns that indulging in pleasures leads to regret at life's end. One should seek IkOankar while there is time.Featuring: Jasleen Kaur (https://sikhri.org/people/jasleen-kaur)#GuruGranthSahib #Sikhi #Sikhism #Wisdom #Waheguru #TGGSPNewRelease25 #GuruGranthSahibJi
