Arta Guru Nanak by Baba Sri Chand
"Let us sing the praises of Nanak, King of kings of both worlds . The whole world is His temple, congregations sing sweet songs in His praise Millions of goddesses kindle holy lights in His honor All the gods sing psalms of His praises All wash His lotus feet The Sun and moon illuminate Him with their radiance He is garlanded with mountains of flowers The True Master, the fountain of Light is merciful to the poor The king of the winds fans Him while saints and sages meditate on His holiness The whole universe vibrates with His celestial song The bells ring out - Onkar Continuously illuminating the heavens He is one with God whose name is Truth In Nanak saints find their support Siri Chand, Nanak's son, declares Nanak is unattainable, unfathomable, unshakeable and pure Whoever sings Emperor Nanak's praises resides in heaven and achieves complete salvation Oh kind master: give protection to those who seek your shelter. Oh Nanak: You are the savior we are just your children" These beautiful words of praise for Guru Nanak are the words of Baba Siri Chand ji written in praise of his father, Guru Nanak and sung by him and the entire sangat as they welcomed the great Guru home from his third Udasi (world pilgrimage) with flowers and candlelight.

This body is the home of Dharma
Pauree: This body is the home of Dharma; the Divine Light of the True Lord is within it. Hidden within it are the jewels of mystery; how rare is that Gurmukh, that selfless servant, who digs them out.When someone realizes the All-pervading Soul, then he sees the One and Only Lord permeating, through and through. He sees the One, he believes in the One, and with his ears, he listens only to the One. O servant Nanak, praise the Naam, the Name of the Lord; this is your service to the Lord, the Truest of the True. 16

Kundalini - Rises in the company of the holy - Sadh Sangat
Bhagat Kabir:The chakras of the coiled Kundalini energy have been opened
Bhatt Svaiya:
The Kundalini rises in the Sat Sangat, the True Congregation; through the Word of the Guru, they enjoy the Lord of Supreme Bliss.
Imagine that your hearing was so good you could hear grass grow. Or that your sight was so powerful you could see all the planets in the solar system. Well, studying an ancient Indian form of yoga, known as Kundalini yoga, might possibly provide you with these powers.
The word kundalini literally means 'coil'. Kundalini practitioners believe that there is a vast store of 'vital energy' (suskshma Prana ) that is coiled like a sleeping snake at the base of the human spine. In order to awaken the kundalini, the yogi must go through a series of strict physical and mental exercises in which he learns to control his inner energy, his breathing and his senses. Once the Kundalini is woken, a process is unleashed in which the yogi can achieve a deep awareness of cosmic and bodily energies. This can lead to a transformed state of mind and body, and a heightened state of bliss.
Ancient texts compare the heightened state of consciousness achieved through kundalini yoga to supernatural powers, or siddhis. Siddhis may include the power to grow to an immense size, so big that you can see the workings of the solar system. Or the power to achieve supernatural hearing, so great that the yogi can hear grass grow. In this 19th century illustration the chakras and the dramatic workings of the universe are mapped out on to the body of a yogi, indicating the relationship between the human body and cosmic space.
Practitioners of Kundalini Yoga believe that the body contains a complex network of Nadis. Nadis (from the Hindu word nad meaning motion) are astral tubes which are thought to carry psychic currents. The most important nadi is known as the Sushumna which runs along the central canal of the spinal column. Situated along the Sushumna are the six main chakras (literally meaning wheels or circles) which are central vessels of vital energy. The chakras are shaped like petalled lotuses, and the number of petals is determined by the surrounding number of nadis. Each chakra is a particular colour, has a specific God and Goddess presiding over it, and is associated with a certain sense perception or mental faculty. A seventh chakra has a thousand petals, and exists at the crown of the head. It is known as the Sahasrara. When the kundalini reaches the Sahasrara, having travelled through the six lower chakras, the Yogi (person who practices yoga) will reach a state of Pure Consciousness. The Sahasrara is thought to be the point at which all differences dissappear– colours, sounds, matter and spirit, still and fluid energies are all channelled into a perfect whole.
