To uphold righteousness, so supreme an act did he perform; he gave his head, but did not utter a word of sorrow. For the sake of righteousness, he did this great heroic deed; he laid down his life but not the principles… Guru Tegh Bahadur broke his earthly vase on the head of the Emperor of Delhi – and went to the abode of God.
-A Spiritual Leader "Guru Gobind Singh"

- Upanishads "Svestasvatara Upanishad 4.1"
It is easy to understand God as long as you don't try to explain him.
