Khalsa Fateh,

how are you doing?

1. Isn't it true that nothing is possible with out the will of Waheguru?

2. If yes, then whatever we do and whatever we say, is what he wants, right?

3. If nothing is possible with out HIS will, then all the things that are being done by others are by his will?

4. Since that is true, then it means that every one is doing his bidding.

5. if every one is doing what he wants, then doesn't it means that everyone will be united with him, once they leave this bodily form?

Please reply soon.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh. I have numbered your questions and replies below accord with numbers above. I recommend you read and study Siri Guru in Gurmukhi and English and you will see these concepts discussed over and over and over. Also study the second Pauri of Japji Sahib.

1. Yes.
2. Not exactly. Waheguru wants us to remember Him, but most of us have many lessons to learn to get there. So it is God's hukum, or law, that as one sows, so does one reap; this is the law of karma, and no one is above this law. We are given free will; we can use it for good and for remembering God, or we can live in our emotions and commotions.
3. Yes, no one lives outside of God's hukum, or Law.
4. See answer to #2 above. Doing His bidding one of 2 things: living the law of karma or living our dharma and thus having our karmic account mitigated or written off by our dharmic practice.
5. Yes, but not necessarily after the life one is in. This is the ultimate goal, but for some, it takes lifetimes of being born in body again and again before one earns the right to merge in God and be free of bodily existence.
