Guru Amardas Ji Says, "Without the Name, they find no place of rest. In the City of Death, they suffer in agony."

In this Shabad Guru Ji is saying, those who do not Jap Naam Athai Pehar (24/7) will find no place of rest, even their soul will suffer after physical death. They will be beaten by the messenger of death and their soul will suffer in the cycle of reincarnation, until Guru Sahib blesses them with the key of this human life and Amrit Naam. This is when we are gifted the opportunity to purify this filthy mind and liberate this soul through Naam. 

Let your light shine so brightly through naam meditation, that others may see the way out of the dark! 

Guru Arjun Dev Ji Says, "without the naam all affairs are useless."

Vaheguroo!

Guru Amardas Ji Says, "Without the Name, all are miserable. In the love of duality, they are ruined."

Guru Ji is saying here, all are miserable without the Name. Why are people miserable without the name? They look perfectly happy when we see them. Guru Sahib says in Gurbaanee, "Satgur Taakleeaa Hamaaraa Paapee Pardaa," this means, nobody can see the negative state of our mind, as the Guru has blessed us and covered it with skin. If people really knew what we were thinking, whilst being happy and jolly on the outside, many would avoid speaking to us, as most of the time we are full of negative emotions. We always seem to hide them in amongst  socialising with others. Most people in the world feel miserable and down at times, especially when alone. We need others around us to lift our spirits. Only the Gurmukhs (facing guru), who Jap Naam (meditate) with every breath do not realize what the words 'miserable' and 'down' actually mean, as they very rarely experience negative emotions. They are always on a high through the natural drug of Naam. Their spirits are always raised according to Gurbaanee (Gurus word). 

Guru Arjan Dev Ji Says, "Without the Naam, the Name of the Lord, the whole world is just ashes."

Vaheguroo!

Guru Amardaas Ji Says, "The Naam, the Name of the Lord, is abstinence, truthfulness, and self-restraint. Without the Name, no one becomes pure."

Guru Sahib is saying in this Shabad, no one will become pure without the name of God, as Naam is the only substance which will purify this filthy mind from the suffering of many life times. This Naam can only be gifted to us by Guru Sahib Ji in the form of panj pyaare (five spiritually elevated singhs), in the presence of Guru Granth Sahib Ji. Only blessed ones receive it. Through receiving this Naam, they realize its great value and hold it close to their Heart. They never let go, through Amrit naam they become pooray (pure.)

Guru Nanak Dev Ji Says, "But without the Lord's Name, liberation is not obtained. As Gurmukh, obtain the Naam and liberate the soul."

FANTASTIC TRANSFORMATION!

Bhai Vijay Singh's Story!  

As a child I had no interest or concept of religion. My family would attend gurdwara now and then and I actually had no idea which religion I belonged to. Life revolved around families, which on the surface seemed very close knit. However I have only recently become aware of the differences and disagreements which I was oblivious to 25 years ago. 

Growing up, again I had not interest in religion and would make fun of keshdhari (unshorn hair) children at school. I would make fun of the way they looked, make fun of their names and also make fun of their religion.
Members of my close family would regularly get in trouble with the police and many spent time in prison. I still hung around with them and much of their characteristics and persona rubbed off on me. 

I began behaving, talking, walking like them but one thing I had, which they didn't was a mother who was devoted to Gurbani. She would listen to Kirtan and do paath everyday. 
I feel that this is one of the main reasons I didn't fall into such bad ways. I know now that she would do ardas for me, that I'm happy and live a successful life. 

I spent sometime studying in Germany and this was really an eye opening experience. As I left, my mum gave me a gutka and wrote a shabad on a piece of paper. She said,  "whenever you feel down read this," it was 'aoukhi gharee naa dekhan daee apna birdh smaalay'. 'He does not let His devotees see the difficult times; this is His innate nature.'

In Germany was where I began to start the Sikhi journey. Prior to this I had multiple relationships, engaged in smoking, drugs, excessive drinking etc. I also played dhol for a group, my brothers were DJs and we would regularly do gigs across the country. 
On returning to UK I began a relationship. We decided very early on, that we wanted to get married. As we were engaged, I kept feeling this pull towards Sikhi. I remember my mum calling me to come upstairs, because there were some young people talking about Sikhi on Panjab radio. The show was Sweet
Sikhi. I called the show and said, I played tabla and asked whether they had any programmes coming up. They said, come to Park Avenue Gurdwara on the last Saturday of the month. I arrived there in jeans and a ramaal (head covering). I was given the opportunity to play tabla, which was a great honour. That day I met Bhai Manvir Singh, who became a lighthouse for my journey towards the Guru. A lighthouse directs those towards the safety of the shore and in the same way the Gursikhs direct people to the safety of the Gurus sharan (court). 

From there I kept in touch with Bhai Sahib and was introduced to many other gursikhs. They became my role models. I wanted to become like them. I had so many questions and would wait anxiously to ask and give responses. 
At that time I also learned another valuable lesson. Just because someone dresses religiously or does Kirtan/tabla seva, that doesn't mean they are holy inside. I found some gursikhs (mainly youngsters) to be rude, unhelpful and very dismissive of a Mona (me) trying to come into Sikhi.
As I moved towards making physical changes I realised that I had a huge obstacle, I was engaged to be married. What shall I do? Break off the engagement? We had been dating for 2 years and our connection was very strong, so I made a decision to wait before I make the physical change. I felt that what greater service could it be, for someone to help them come into Sikhi. 
We got married in a typical panjabi way, although the gyanis who performed the wedding were slightly surprised to see a Mona groom singing the Laavaa as he goes around. 

The hurdle now was to try to encourage my wife to build an interest in Sikhi. I would do ardas (pray) many times a day and consult with gursikhs about what to do. Many have differing opinions. I was quite determined for us to change, however recognized that taking Amrit should be a decision someone makes, because they want to, not because they have to, that way the individual is a lot likely to keep their Amrit. 

I then tried a different approach by taking the wife to Kirtan programmes and camps so we could build our knowledge and pyaar (love). I could see, that she was moving slowly towards a gursikhi lifestyle. I would ask gursikh bibian to talk to her about Sikhi saroop (image), dastaar (turban) and Kes (hair), so she could feel support in this. I have lost touch with many of the people, who supported us on our journey but I am very grateful and indebted to them for the time and effort they put into us. I would hate the thought of cutting my hair and it became more and more of a struggle for my wife to get me to the barbers. I would put it off, she would eventually stop talking to me. These were very difficult times. I continued waking up at amritvela everyday and did simran (meditate)  and Nitnem (daily prayers). I was basically living as an amritdhari (baptised Sikh) but without Kesh. I recall the final time I went to the Barbers. A Muslim woman was cutting my hair and spotted my Kara. She said 'you're a Sikh'. I said yes. 'Aren't Sikhs supposed to keep their hair'? I replied 'yes' but felt very embarrassed. From here I began telling her about Sikhi. She was very impressed and she even started feeling guilty about her lack of
devotion, for her own faith. By the end of the haircut, she said something which shocked me. She said 'after all you have told me about your religion you seem very much into it, I don't expect to see you here again'. It was a WOW moment, where I felt this comment had a driving  force behind it. I went home and told my wife what happened and from there she realised that this is a clear sign. From there I kept my Kes. 
Now the challenge was encouraging my wife to get into it. She had made some progress but was still having the same old demons inside.
The birth of our child Amrita Kaur led to a change in her. A jeevan-vala (highly spiritual) gursikh said to us recently, that you and your wife became gursikhs as a result of your daughters kamaee in her previous life's.

Now our journey towards Amrit was to step up. With Guru's Apaar Kirpa, my wife started keeping her Kes and one thing she noticed was she felt incomplete without a dastaar. She slowly started doing her full Nitnem and in Dec 2009 we were blessed to become part of the Khalsa (pure) Family. 

I have no regrets as every mistake, every good decision, all shape our current destiny. Although we still have a huge distance to travel, Guru Sahib, through the Sangat, has laid a clear path ahead. I am eternally thankful to Guru sahib and our Gursikh family for embracing this nobody and bringing him from the dying cold outside, to experience the warmth of the Gurus lap. May guru sahib bless us all with his love.

Guru Sahib Ji has now blessed veer ji, with the Seva (service) of touring the world to educate/inspire many others, on this extremely beautiful spiritual path of Sikhi. Veer ji does this whilst living in girhast (householders life), with a family and a full time job. 

Guru Ramdas Ji Says, "I was rolling around in the dirt, and no one cared for me at all. In the Company of the Guru, the True Guru, I, the worm, have been raised up and exalted."

Guru Amardas Ji Says, "The self-willed manmukhs are totally without virtue. Without the Name, they die in frustration."

Guru Sahib is saying in this Shabad, that virtue will only come through Athai Pehar Naam Abhiyaas (24/7meditation). If one does not meditate, one will gain no virtue and will suffer through personal want and desire. Frustration will kill them in the end, as they still remain empty of Spiritual wisdom and bliss. They will have gained no honor in the World. Their mind will not let them settle, as they have not experienced the beauty of peace, love and contentment through Naam.

Guru Angad Dev Ji Says, "Without the Naam, the mortal wanders, coming and going in reincarnation."

Game of love 147- WITHOUT NAAM MEDITATION 2

WITHOUT NAAM MEDITATION 2

Guru Sahib gives us many quotes from Guru Granth Sahib Jee, on how our lives would be without the name of God (Vaheguroo).

"Without the Name, no one is approved."

Guru Nanak Dev Jee has made it clear in the quote above, without the name of the Lord Vaheguroo no one will be approved. No matter how hard one tries, one can try anything under the Sun, if the breath is not occupied by the name of God, one will not be approved in the court of God (dargaah). Even the Rehit (physical discipline) we keep will not be approved if it is not accompanied by each breath of Naam. Every physical Rehit is kept to protect aatmic (spiritual) Rehit, if there is no spiritual substance in one then the physical Rehit becomes Pakhand (hypocrisy). If the Sevaa (selfless service) we do is not accompanied by the name of God, then the Sevaa will also not be approved by Akaal Purakh Vaheguroo. The reason for this is when our breath is accompanied by the mantra Vaheguroo, then everything we do is blessed by God and we are Neemaane (humble) to Gods will. If our breath is not occupied by the name, then every karam (deed) we do is done through self-ego, as it is done through a mind wandering through thought and desire, and not a mind full of love for Vaheguroo, which means love for his creation through meditation on Naam.

We always think we are in control and doing the right thing but subtle ego is very deceiving! The mind is very clever, it controls us every second of the day. We have to watch and be aware of our every breath and action. Every breath and action should be filled with Akaal Purakh Vaheguroo's forever lasting love. 

Note! Sikhi new comers, keep rehit, proceed in sevaa, remain in Gursikh Sangat, plan your life towards Amrit with your mind centred and focussed on the shabad Vaheguroo. In this way Guru Sahib ji will bless you and all of us to reside at their lotus feet and the mind/soul will be liberated. The life's journey will become complete. 

Guru Nanak Dev Ji Says, "Without the Naam, the Name of the Lord, ALL their actions are useless, like the magician who deceives through illuions."

Vaheguroo! 

Game of love 146- WITHOUT NAAM

WITHOUT NAAM

The next few posts will be based on Gurbaani quotes regarding, how our life would be without Naam meditation.

The central focus for every gursikhs life should be naam (name of God). The whole of Gurbaani (Gurus word) starts and ends with one substance, and that is of naam. Guru sahib goes on to say, the naam should become our every breath of life (24/7). Those that don't jap (meditate) on naam, sorry to say, life is going to be an up hill struggle without it, and let's be very honest if we have not japped naam, we haven't seen life. Naam is beyond this life, It's the most vast ras (taste) anyone can ever imagine and experience. There's no taste like it, it's pure ecstasy. Guru sahib has called it the most purest and most ecstatic ammal (drug) to have been brought to earth, once tasted not even rehabilitation can separate you from it. It's taste is indescribable, just as the mute struggles to describe the taste of sweet candy. 

So if you want to taste this immense sweetness, you will have to go in the midst of the true saints to find it. Go to naam, baani and kirtan programmes, sit with Gursikhs and Guru sahib will bless you with Amrit one day, where Amrit naam will be your reward and gift. 

Guru Amardas a Ji Says, "Without serving the True Guru, the Naam is not obtained. The Naam is the True profit in this world."

Game of love 145- REWARDS FOR TRUE LOVE

REWARDS FOR TRUE LOVE

An 8 year old child saw his dad dying and said, "dad aren't you gonna save me and take me to dargah" (Gods court). His father said, "a poora (pure) Guru will come and save you in your life." 

109 years later, this child had developed into a Muslim fakeer and was still waiting. He was now aged 117. At Amritvela 1am he awoke and went to do ishnaan (bathe). He heard a rustling in the bushes. He called, 'who is there'.

Then he saw a man sitting in the bushes holding something in his laps. The fakeer asked 'who are you oh beloved of God, what are you doing here at this time and what are you holding in your laps so preciously?'
The man replied, "my name is Bhai Jetha, and I'm holding the pavitar sees (pure head) of my Poora Satguru  (Pure True Guru), Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur Ji" (9th Sikh Guru). 
The fakeer began to cry and cry uncontrollably. He said to Bhai Jetha, I've waited 109 years to get Darshan (vision) of the Poora Guru and they come to me like this?"
His bairaag (longing) became immense, as he asked Bhai Jetha to rest while he looked after the sees of Guruji. 

From 1am - 5am he did chaur sahib with a peacock feather, crying that he could not speak to Guru. He had so much to ask but was unable to. 
At 5am Bhai Jetha awoke and told the Muslim fakeer that he must now leave for Sri Anandpur Sahib. 
The fakeer asked, "is there anyone else in the place of the Poora Guru?"
Bhai Jetha said, "his son Gobind Rai."
The fakeer said, "I am too old to walk there, I am almost bed ridden, please get a message to Guru Ji to come visit me. I will be waiting."
Bhai Jetha agreed and set off. 
As he arrived at Sri Anandpur Sahib, Guru Gobind Singh ji did Darshan of the saroop of his father and asked Bhai Jetha, "if there was anything else urgent he needed to tell him." Bhai Jetha remembered and said, "there is an old Muslim fakeer who wants to meet you. He is waiting anxiously to have your Darshan."
Guru sahib made a note. From here, 9 years passed. The Khalsa had just been victorious in the battle of Sri Paonta Sahib (Battle of Bhangani) and at this time Guru sahib was about 19 years old. As they were in the Chandigahr area, Guru sahib remembered that this was where the Muslim fakeer lived who had been waiting for his Darshan. Guru sahib asked the fauj to leave and 11 Gursikh came with him. Guru sahib took his shoes off as a sign of respect. This fakeer was very devoted and had done Darshan and seva of his father Sri Guru Tegh Bahadur, so deserves utmost respect. He arrived at the fakeers house. By now he was bed ridden aged 126. The fakeer asked "who is it?" Guru Sahib replied, "Dass da Naam (servants name is) Gobind Rai. You've been waiting for many years and now I've come."

They entered the small hut and the fakeer fell at the feet of Guru, but Guru sahib picked him up and hugged him closely. The fakeers eye brows were so long he had to hold them up to see out of his eyes. He cried and cried and said "I've been waiting so long for you. I've been dreaming about what you must be like and now you are before me." Guru sahib said, "you showed my father much respect, you did his Darshan and seva (served him) and for that you can ask for whatever you want." The Fakeer asked for a small place in Dargah (true spiritual court) where he could be with guru. Guru sahib (Bardo Aalam Shah - Ruler of both worlds). Guru Gobind Ji said, "I will give you the whole of dargah."

So this fakeer is historically now known as Fakeer Dargahe Shah and his history is linked to a Gurdwara in Chandighar called Gurdwara Nabha Sahib, which marks this historic event. Baba Banda Singh Bahadur also showed respect here to the fakeer who was beloved to Guru sahib.

This is how we should all serve and truly love our Guru! 

Questions are asked, why is Guru sahib not showering his grace on us? Let's answer the question. Do we love the Guru as much as the fakeer did? Do we do as the Guru says? Do we love God with every breath? Do we see God in all their creation? Do we keep the Gurus discipline? Is our sangat (companions) like minded, God loving? When it is, we will be rewarded without any discrimination, just as the Fakeer was. We have to make the effort, no one can do it for us. Sikhi is very simple, we (our mind) add complications, as we struggle to focus and meditate (jap). 

A Sikhs duty is to unconditionally love Vaheguroo with every breath. When we become this way without wanting rewards, it's then Guru Sahib glances his grace! 

Guru Ji Says, "Gazing upon the Lord's form of perfect beauty, my hopes have been fulfilled; attaining the Blessed Vision of His Darshan, my hunger has been appeased."

Vaheguroo! 

Game of love 144- FAILING TO WAKE UP AT AMRITVELA!

FAILING TO WAKE UP AT AMRITVELA 🙏

Baba Sham Singh jee at a very early age of 5 years started living with a Baba Raam Singh jee. His father had died and his mother could not feed him. For this reason she came to Baba Raam Singh jee and urged him to accept Baba Sham Singh jee. Baba Sham Singh had a remarkable inclination towards doing Bhagti (meditating), at such early age. He developed so much love for sangat that he refused to go back with his mother. Once when Baba Sham Singh was only 6 or 7 years old, he became a little relaxed in getting up at Amritvela (rising early) and missed Amritvela for 2 days in a row. At this, Baba Raam Singh told one of his sewadaar to take Baba Sham Singh and drop him off to his mother. When Baba Sham Singh heard this, he was horrified. He could not imagine going away from sangat (congregation) and this way, lose spirituality. He started crying. The sewadar lovingly told him to seek forgiveness from Sant jee. Baba Sham Singh prostrated before Sant jee and earnestly sought forgiveness, for not getting up early in the morning. At this Sant jee forgave him and told him that if a person loses Amritvela, then there is nothing left in that person. He said if he (Baba Sham Singh) was not going to keep Amritvela in his sangat, he (Baba Raam Singh) too will have some burden of the sin incurred with this, since he is responsible for him. After this, Baba Sham Singh jee never lost Amritvela. He lived for 115 more years, after this incident.

Another Singh while describing the importance of Amritvela used to say, that Siri Guru Kalgidhar jee (Guru Gobind Singh) himself takes attendance of who get up at Amritvela. If a person misses Amritvela, he marks them absent but if a person regularly misses Amritvela, Guru Sahib just strikes off his name from the list. This is a very scary thought. If Guru Sahib was to strike off our name from his list of Gursikhs he monitors, what would happen of us? We would just die in regret and repent.

Bhagat Farid Ji Says, "Fareed, if you do not awaken in the early hours before dawn, you are dead while yet alive."

Game of love 143- GURU GUIDED ME TO GOD

GURU GUIDED ME TO GOD🙏

My name is Joe, I'm a 19 years old city worker born to a Marahti Christian Father and an English Mother. 

For me it all started back in May 2014 when I got into a long distance relationship with a British born Sikh girl, her mother had provided well for them and they lived comfortably, however there was no father in the family and they weren't particularly religious (mone and didn't even wear a Kara). 

During my stay up there, they decided to take me to a Gurdwara as I didn't know anything about Sikhism and I didn't even know that Gurdwaras exist! The first time I walked into one, it was amazing and I was completely taken back by the beauty. Firstly I was slightly uncomfortable as it was really busy, everyone was speaking Punjabi and the Singhs looked strong and warrior like with their Dumalla and Kirpan/Talwar, but I soon adjusted and tried to absorb as much as I could. Unfortunately for me, the mother hadn't explained about Guru Granth Sahib ji and that he was even there, as I believed I was bowing down to the Head Granthi sitting under this beautiful canopy with a long white beard and turban - (they could have helped me right?!). I was feeling out of place trying to follow and watch everybody standing up and then bowing down, for what I would know now was Ardaas but nonetheless I adhered. However I had a great time, I enjoyed the parshad - it was the best taste ever and I couldn't believe everyone was getting fed this! I also heard Kirtan, Katha for the first time and it was really pleasant to my ears, even though I couldn't understand a word I would just sit there and relax knowing they would be speaking only good things. We then went downstairs and I had Langar for the first time and I was very surprised at how much food was being supplied for all! We left shortly after and visiting the Gurdwara for me was really quite a magical experience. When I put a Kara on that day and noticed a change inside me, it did make me wonder about my faith but I didn't really expect anything. 

Overall I was amazed to see how well and efficiently a temple was being run with so many helping out, devoting themselves to God and acting as a strong community, after all the Gurdwara would never be running if it wasn't for the people that came - I was truly envious. I was always religious before, having visited India and being blessed by an old Monk who had taught my father at a Catholic boarding school in Bombay back in the 1950s - I had already found a religion and would pray often and try to conduct myself accordingly. Although I never went to Church and did not discipline myself in any way.

Each time I visited the girl and her family I tried to get to the Gurdwara but the relationship with the girl deteriorated, as she was unfaithful to me and she also had an awful relationship with her Mother with constant arguments and fights and half the stuff we planned never happened. I was of course upset, and I had actually lost around a stone in 2 weeks. As you can imagine my parents weren't happy with the relationship and the negative impact it was having on my personality, health and work life. Was it really worth it all just because she was pretty?

I started going to the closest Gurdwara for me which is in Barking, I remember walking in and trying to remember everything like I had done previously. I heard amazing Kirtan and then every time I was away from the Gurdwara I longed to be there and so I kept going every week more and more. I ordered two turbans and a Kanga online, however gave up after failing miserably to tie one! Me and the girl eventually split up and suddenly I found myself wanting to be at the Gurdwara even more! Soon enough I would visit every evening after work and enjoy Kirtan, Katha and Paath. Before I knew it I had become good friends with all the gyanis and sewadars there. I started tying a Patka with a kanga and decided I would not eat meat, eggs or cut my hair, I never really drank or had drugs before so that was easy. It took a while for me and everyone to adjust but I was making good progress, and within 3 weeks with WaheGuru Jis kirpa and the help of some of the gyanis I was tying my own Dastaar every day.

Now it's 3/4 months later, I have strengthened my connection with WaheGuru and I am in more bliss than I've ever been in my life - I find I have started to bring peace into my mind and there are less worries. I'm currently preparing for Amrit, wearing the 5 Kakkars, learning Punjabi and doing my Nitnem everyday. I have made some great great friends and even some that I consider my own brothers and sisters. I cannot even explain in words how my life has changed for the better and so grateful that WaheGuru has given me this opportunity and allowed me to do some fantastic Sewa, each day is getting better. It just goes to show the power that WaheGuru has and that truly we can find him in the midst of Maya! (Materialistic world). 

WaheGuru Ji Ka Khalsa WaheGuru Ji Ki Fateh!

With Guru Sahibs kirpa more and more blessed souls are treading upon this amazingly spiritual path, let's be one of them!

BHAI JEEVAN SINGH JI LEAVES HIS BODY TODAY🙏

A truly blessed soul.. He has been separated from us but his actions, memories, stories and love will remain forever. A true Gurmukh, the embodiment of peace, love, compassion, contentment and humility.

Would like to share a blessed experience with Bhai Sahib Ji🙏❤️

Daas was wanting to take Amrit. We went on a trip to Darbaar Sahib ji (Amritsar). We Had a great chaa (excitement) to meet Bhai Sahib ji too. We went to his house with our family. He met us all with great love and humility. We told him, "when We go back to the UK, We want to take Amrit." The excitement and love in Bhai Sahib Jis face was immense, their eyes shone with true love. We asked Bhai Sahib Ji to do ardaas for us at Darbaar Sahib, that Guru Ji blesses us with a Pooran Gursikhi Jeevan after the blessings of Amrit. And that We may go on to do immense kamaaee (earn profit) of naam & baani. 

Bhai Sahib ji asked bibi ji to get his cholaa (attire) straight away. He popped it on and said, "quick come with me." Bhai Sahib ji ran out of the door like an innocent child and we followed him.. As soon as he got out, sangat started to stop him and say fateh. Bhai Sahib ji with great love and child like innocence said, "please don't stop me, sangtaa have come from the Uk". He ran straight to darbaar sahib with us following. He said, "I am going straight to do ardaas for you guys. Guru sahib will do bakhshish (give blessings)." We shared our Fateh and departed. 

Bhai Sahib Ji was a very special soul. Never seen so much love pour through any Human being in the way it radiated through Bhai Jeevan Singh Ji 🙏🙏❤️❤️

There in the True court of Vaheguroo, he gets his True place."

Game of love 141- BUILD AN EVERLASTING HOUSE

BUILD AN EVERLASTING HOUSE! 

An elderly Sikh carpenter was ready to retire. He told his employer-contractor of his plans to leave the house building business, and live a more leisurely life with his wife enjoying his extended family. He would miss the pay-check, but he needed to retire and they could get by.
The contractor was sorry to see his good worker go and asked if he could build just one more house as a personal favour. The carpenter said yes, but in time it was easy to see that his heart was not in his work. He resorted to shoddy workmanship and used inferior materials. It was an unfortunate way to end his career.

When Jasbir Singh (carpenter) finished his work and the builder came to inspect the house, the contractor handed the front-door key to Jasbir.  "This is your house," he said, "my gift to you."  

What a shock! What a shame! If he had only known he was building his own house, he would have done it all so differently. Now he had to live in the home he had built none too well. 

So it is with us. We build our lives in a distracted way, reacting rather than acting, willing to put up less than the best. At important points we do not give the job our best effort. Then with a shock we look at the situation we have created and find that we are now living in the house we have built. If we had realized, we would have done it differently.

Think of yourself as the carpenter. Think of your life as the house. Each day you hammer a nail, place a board or erect a wall, build wisely. It is the only life you will ever build. Even if you live it for only one day more. Each day deserves to be lived graciously, in tune with the love of Vaheguroo's name and Gurbaani (Gurus Teachings). So we can create our true dignity in the house we reside in (our body). Let's liberate our soul from this house, by living virtuously through selfless service and meditation on Naam (gods name). Let's control the thieves (minds desires), who are plundering our Saintly home. 

The plaque on the wall says, "Life is a do-it-yourself project, do it to the best of your ability. So the Guru can liberate us by merging us with Vaheguroo." 

Guru Arjun Dev Ji Says, "Nanak builds his house upon that site where there is no death, no birth, and no old age."

Bhai sahib ji has said, if the prisoners are not released as promised, they will say their final fateh (sacrifice their life), we don't want to lose him.  Please whatsap Bhai sahib ji on the following number, ask them to continue drinking water and show them your support ji 0091-9468222310.

Bhai Sahib ji is a family man just like us all, he has put his family a side and is sacrificing his life only for the love of Guru Ji and their Panth. May Guru sahib bless us all with this Drirrthaa (unparalleled faith). We miss one meal a day and we begin not to think straight, we can't even comprehend what sacrifice Bhai sahib ji has given for the release of our brothers and fathers. 

Please put any controversial issues a side, which brings a divide in our Gurus family (Panth) and focus on the bigger picture. The Panth comes before any jathebandee (organisation) and any controversial issue that divides Guru Jis sons and daughters. It's a time where people are creating dubda (doubt) within us to make us weak, we need to be suchathe (aware). We are at our most powerful when together not divided. 

Bhai sahib ji has spoke to the jathedaar of Akaal Takht Sahib (leadership of the supreme centre of Sikhs) and told them their leadership will be questioned by the Sikh Panth if the political prisoners are not released. He said they need to do their duty as a respected leader and put more pressure on the Punjab/Indian Government, so that the prisoners can be released more or less immediately. 

There is a protest rally outside the Indian High Commission, Aldwych, London, UK, WC2B 4NA from 1-3pm on Wednesday 7th January 2015. Please make transport arrangements through your local sevadaars. Bhai Sahib ji has asked for all Sikhs in every country they reside to gather and protest outside the Indian High Commission on this day. ACT NOW🙏

Please Support and create awareness ji🙏 Please share this post on all your accounts, all social media, upload the image to your whatsap status ji🙏 It's the least we can do to support ji🙏 We need Bhai Sahib ji, we don't want to lose another Guru Ka Laal (loved one of Guru Ji). 🙏🙏

Bhai Gurdaas Ji Says, "In His creation, the Gurmukhs are known as invaluable diamonds and rubies and they remain steadfast in Gurmat (Gurus teachings) and are accepted with honour in the court of the Lord."

Vaheguroo! 

Game of love 139- ARE YOU SURE GOD EXISTS?

ARE YOU SURE GOD EXISTS?

We were asked a question if God really existed, below is our response! 

Hi Guys hope you are all well, what is God? God is beautiful, where shall we start? God is love, energy, force and the creator of all. God exists in the mind, body, spirit, the question is where doesn't he exist? God is an experience. How do we experience him? We experience him through conquering this filthy mind, it has been filthy for many life times through our negative thoughts and actions.. We have been given an opportunity to purify this mind through this human body.. We have to reduce our wandering and suffering minds thoughts to just one love, and that is the love of Gods name through meditation.

We only use 10% of the mind, 90% is not used.. This is only developed and discovered through spiritual gain, through meditation. This is when we gain spiritual powers. All humans can merge with God, develop the mind and develop these powers. Some experience God through seeing a bright light, which can not be described, as it is unbearable.. Just as the mute can not describe the sweet taste of candy. Some experience God through the current naad, which is the sound, music and word of god in sachkhand (the gate of truth and oneness). Some always feel and experience God through Sehj (Nirvaana), always at peace within themselves. 

The senses become controlled by meditation. We control the mind, the mind doesn't control us. We control the vices and use them when required for the good of others. The vices ie, anger, ego, lust, attachment, greed don't control us. Our ego stops us developing this mind. When we conquer our ego we conquer the world. We merge with the supreme soul God, as we are all souls separated from the supreme soul God paying back our karma, until we merge with him through purification of the mind. 

We experience God through compassion, love, contentment, truth, patience and peace. The tenth gate (dasam duaar) is opened at the top of our heads through meditation.. All humans can experience this.. Once it opens, we can begin to discover the spirit world.. We say God doesn't exist, we can only experience him through meditation, this is how we see him, we begin to develop unconditional love for their creation.. 

Experience meditation, experience true love, experience spirituality, experience energy, experience upliftment, experience a natural high, experience your supreme being (God), experience it within.. Experience the True Guru.. Experience Sikhi.. When you experience God through conquering your mind and becoming one with your spirit, there's no turning back.. Until we experience God, we can't judge.. Until we experience we will never recognise our true self.. When we experience Vaheguroo God through meditation, then there's no turning back.. 

Ask those who have experienced God, they believe nothing else exists, only Vaheguroo (God). 

Guru Arjan Dev Ji Says, "Quietening the ego (mind), ecstasy is obtained. Where the ego does not exist, God Himself is there."

Vaheguroo!
