Game of love 365- LOYALTY

LOYALTY 

"A dog never abandons the home of his master."

Guru Teghbahadur Ji 1621-1675

As Sikhs we can learn from anything and everything. We just have to be open minded and relate everything to God. This usually happens when we meditate and contemplate on Vaheguroo's name. 

Guru sahib ji has mentioned many animals in Gurbani and related them with God. Just as the line above does. 

Dogs are very loving and loyal animals, if treated with love, affection and taught correctly. There is no animal like them for their obedience. In the same way a Sikh should be loyal, faithful, obedient and ever loving to Vaheguroo (God). 

A short story comes to mind, In which turned my love, loyalty and faith closer to Guru ji.

The power of love and a teaching of loyalty to our master (God/Guru)!

Hachiko was a Japanese Akita dog in japan. His master was a Professor. He walked to the train station everyday with his master and went home. Hachiko always came back to collect the Professor daily. The Professor had a heart attack at school one day and never returned home via the train. Hachiko the dog, travelled to the train station every single day for 10 years, at exactly the same time to collect his master but sadly he never met him ever again. 

He died daily in his longing and remembrance and eventually after 10 years of yearning and waiting in love, he died and was buried by the side of his master. 

Are we as loyal to our master (Guru ji)? If yes, does it show in our spiritual development, character and physical appearance. 

Vaheguroo!
