Same theme, different voices

One attains Perfect Knowledge when one sees God in man.

We can attain peace of mind only by following what Gurbani teaches.

God told Prophet David, 'The servant dearest to Me is one who doesn't seek Me out of fear or hope for reward, but to fulfill their duty to My divinity.'

Love is the fulfilling of all commands; therefore however much man strives to reach this freedom, the body can never quite attain thereto, and must be ever in conflict.
