Trilok Singh Artist - Ek pitta aks ke hum baarik

All human beings are the children of the same God

Loving human beings is loving God( (ਸਾਚੁ ਕਹੋਂ ਸੁਨ ਲੇਹੁ ਸਭੈ ਜਿਨ ਪ੍ਰੇਮ ਕੀਓ ਤਿਨ ਹੀ ਪ੍ਰਭ ਪਾਇਓ ।।). From Guru Nanak to Tenth Guru, Guru Gobind Singh the message of love, one God, truth, equality and brotherhood has always been the same. From the first to tenth, the bodies of the Guru may have been different but their soul remained the same. To show this, Artist has shown Guru Nanak on the one side and Guru Gobind Singh on the other side. The idea of one soul in all the Gurus has depicted here. Guru Gobind Singh accomplished what have been begun by Guru Nanak and promoted by other Gurus.
In the centre, GOD, OM, EK OMKAR and ALLAH has been written meaning they are the same ways to reach the supreme one God. The light emanating from the circle is spreading in all directions and on all the human beings equally.
Whole human race has got only one caste (ਏਕੁ ਪਿਤਾ ਏਕਸ ਕੇ ਹਮ ਬਾਰਿਕੁ) is written in the light coming from GOD, OM, ALLAH, EK ONKAR. The Guru believed in the equality of all the races and castes( ਹਿੰਦੂ ਤੁਰਕ ਕੋਊ ਰਾਫਜੀ ਇਮਾਮ ਸਾਫੀ ਮਾਨਸ ਕੀ ਜਾਤ ਏਕੈ ਪਹਿਚਾਨਬੋ ।।). The main task before the Gurus was the upliftment of the down trodden masses and give them equal status. All humans were dear to the Guru irrespective of their caste, creed of status in the society (ਹੋਇ ਇਕਤਰ੍ਰ ਮਿਲਹੁ ਮੇਰੇ ਭਾਈ ਦੁਬਿਧਾ ਦੂਰਿ ਕਰਹੁ ਲਿਵ ਲਾਇ ).
On the earth, people belonging to different religions are shown. Hindu, Muslims, Christians & Sikhs are shown wearing different dresses. Their look may be different, their customs, languages may be different but they are all the children of the same God (ਦੇਵਤਾ ਅਦੇਵ ਜੱਛ ਗੰਧ੍ਰਬ ਤੁਰਕ ਹਿੰਦੂ ਨਿਆਰੇ ਨਿਆਰੇ ਦੇਸਨ ਕੇ ਭੇਸ ਕੋ ਪ੍ਰਭਾਉ ਹੈ ।। ). So loving them is loving God.
It means all men are God’s creations. To know God, one has to look into ones own’s heart. God is omnipresent, it is present in all its creations (ਮਨ ਤੂੰ ਜੋਤਿ ਸਰੂਪ ਹੈ ਆਪਣਾ ਮੂਲ਼ੁ ਪਛਾਣੁ । ਮਨ ਹਰਿ ਜੀ ਤੇਰੇ ਨਾਲਿ ਹੈ ਗੁਰਮਤੀ ਰੰਗੁ ਮਾਣੁ।।). To know God one has to look inward (to ones own heart).
Writing Guru’s message in different languages shows the Artists mastery of different languages. ਅਵਲਿ ਅਲਹ ਨੂਰੁ ਉਪਾਇਆ ਕੁਦਰਤਿ ਕੇ ਸਭ ਬੰਦੇ ॥
