In this podcast, we are invited to pause and reflect: What does Sikhi actually say about death? How are we meant to face it, understand it, and live in its awareness?
In saloks ninety-three through one hundred thirty, Sheikh Farid Ji reminds us that the entire world remains under the sway of death. Even the most well-nourished bodies cannot escape it; when old age arrives, even the once strong become weak.
In saloks sixty-six through ninety-two, Sheikh Farid Ji reminds us that with each day comes someone’s time to depart this world. All those here are like guests; yet they spend their lives oblivious, forgetting to prepare for the journey ahead.
