Thus, in nutshell, untainted, keen and thorough Understanding (ਸੂਝ-ਬੂਝ) of the Gurbani is the Naam – ਗੁਰਮਤ ਦਾ ਗਿਆਨ ਹੀ ਨਾਮ ਪਦਾਰਥ ਹੈ.

Gurbani’s wisdom is meant to be understood and lived

Posted by T. Singh Comments (7) »

First, the Gurbani is meant to be thoroughly understood through the sincere Shabad-Vichaar.

ਏਨਾ ਅਖਰਾ ਮਹਿ ਜੋ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਬੂਝੈ ਤਿਸੁ ਸਿਰਿ ਲੇਖੁ ਨ ਹੋਈ ॥੨॥: Enaa akharaa mahi jo gurmukhi boojhai tisu siri lekhu n hoee ||2|| (sggs 432).

In other words, it is not meant to be wrapped up in the designers Rumaalaas and worshipped as an idle!!
