Mystic Music
The Formless is Attributed and Unattributed,
And gone into absorption in the cosmic Void,
Himself has He made creation,
Himself on it meditates.
In the cosmic Void is He absorbed,
Where plays the unstruck mystic music.
Beyond expression is this miraculous wonder.
And gone into absorption in the cosmic Void,

How to see God
How to see God?
And How to love him?
How to worship that 'One' greatest, extreme power?
The question is taken up by Sahib Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji in Japji Sahib.
What shall we offer to him that we may behold His council chamber?
What shall we utter with our lips which may move Him to give us His love? In
the ambrosial hours of morn meditate on the Grace of the True Name. For your good actions may procure for yo a better birth, but emancipation is from Grace alone.
We should worship His Name, believe in the Name, which is ever and ever the same and true for good. The practice of the Name is emphasised again and again in the Sikh Scriptures, and requires a little explanation.

Salvation
The aim of life, according to the Sikh Gurus, is not to get that salvation or a heavenly abode called paradise, which is all good for further journey of a soul. Where there is no sadness, no work to do, no poverty just all wealth, rest and enjoyment which is not here on earth. Sikhism says, "Those who tasted the love of God (Ikonkar), place like salvations are phony to him."
"If a man loves to see God, what care he for salvation or paradise."
"If a man loves to see God, what care he for salvation or paradise."
(Sahib Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji Asa)
"Everybody hankers after salvation, paradise or Elysium setting their hopes on them every day of their lives. But those who love to see God do not ask for salvation. The sight itself satisfies their minds completely."
