Chapter 1: Why Should We Believe in Waheguru?
God has many names. Every religion calls the creator of the universe by a
different name. The all-powerful God is called ‘Waheguru’ by the Sikhs. One
reason we believe in Waheguru is because our Gurus, from Guru Nanak to
Guru Gobind Singh Ji told us that Waheguru is the ultimate reality and it is
all powerful and has created the whole universe and runs it under his/her
command. They had direct communication with the Waheguru and they
came to this earth on a mission that Waheguru decided for them.
When we look at the universe created
by Waheguru, we are struck by its
beauty and organization. For example,
if we look at a creature like a peacock,
one wonders how it came into being.
Look at its colorful feathers and the
beautiful patterns on them. In its
body it has capability to eat food,
convert that into energy, and dance
when it is cloudy. The dance a male
peacock performs is so charming.
There are small motors at the base of
its feathers that allow the feathers
to standup like a fan. Who taught the
Peacock to dance? It did not go to a
Bhangra Class.
The female peacocks lay eggs, hatches
them, and beautiful chicks come out of
these. The mother peacock knows how
to take care of them. Who taught her
to give shade to her baby? This is all
in Waheguru’s Hukam.
