NAAM DRUG
Many people take drugs to create a phycological high for themselves. Many people take drugs, because they are not happy with life and many people turn to drugs, when there is nothing going for them in life and they have hit rock bottom.
Drugs give us a temporary mental high/boost. This doesn't last long at all, maybe a few hours. The after effects of these drugs are a massive low, as the human body is not used to being on a high full of medicine and drugs for so long. The mind can not cope with this. There has to be some give somewhere and that results in the body and mind coming down from them. So basically, it's a temporary boost that individuals think they can turn to, to bring them a mental excitement and happiness for a few hours.
I have spoken to a few Gursikhs, who used to take drugs before coming in to Sikhi and they say, the taste and ecstasy of Naam is much much greater than the temporary boost of drugs.
Guru sahib Ji says in Gurbaani, Naam is an everlasting drug in which keeps one on a natural ecstatic high for many life times and in the end liberates the individual. There is no substance equivalent to it. The reason why Guru Sahib Ji uses the analogy of drugs in Gurbaani is, because once tasted and experienced it can never be forgotten. One wants more and more and would end up dying, if they ever lost the Naam. It's a drug that one can never come off and it will remain with the individual throughout their souls journey.
If you want this permanent drug in your life, go and beg for it in the Amrit sanchaar ceremony and the five beloved ones will bless you with Naam, baani and Gursikhi Jivan.
Naam meditation is the most truest and purest intoxicant ever experienced and it will go on to purify your mind and liberate your soul.
Guru Ramdas Ji Says, "jio bin amalai amalee mar jaaee hai thio har bin ham mar jaathee ||
Like the addict who dies without his drug, I die without the Lord."
Vaheguroo!
