  1. there are 2 sukhmana sahibs, one i believe is a compliation of bani by guru ram das ji, which can be found in some gutkay, baba mohan singhs benthi bani gukta (bhindran taksal) for one.

    the second is sukhmana sahib patshahi 10, this bani used to be in some old saroops of dasam granth. its rare to find, i have a copy of an old hazoori gutka and this bani is in there, but i havn't seen it anywhere else. i do hvae a copy, pm me if you would like to read it

  2. as bahadur (darbandi baba) once said in his katha (b4 he converted to islam), khalsa means someone who is under the direct authority of guru gobind singh ji, obviously the people at akal takht arnt, so therefore they are not khalsa correct?

    therefore there is a limitation on who khalsa is, and it is a very rare thing, (as bahadur once agreed to, before "he saw the light")

  3. would love to here what others have to say about this topic, its an old one

    correct me if im wrong, but gurbani is written on so many different levels from what i have seen. sometimes maharaj will write aape beej aape hi khaie, but then othertimes you will see lines, like shaheediyan posted, jith hath jor kar vekhai soe, nanak utam neech na koe

    so is it possible that maharaj is speaking on different levels? as in, maharaj knows different people at different spiritual levels are going to read this, and thus people can look at it either way, but ultimately Rab controls and does everything.

    how does this fit in with advait vedenta? tsingh? n3o? shaheediyan?

  4. Antinang, although i respect your sentiment, the advice I posted is timeless and has come from many brahmnishtti mahapurush including the brahmgyani in Xylitol's avatar, Baba Jvala Singh Ji Herkhowal (in fact you can see him in sidhasana with gyanmudra in the photo). Prtak darshan through ananyabhav bhakti does not necessarily require asana as you say, but to enter nirvikalap-smadhi requires concerted effort at closing down antahkaran-vritti. While naam begins as upasna, with practice it leads to smadhi. Therefore this advice about asana is not new, but is found in very old granths such as the last section of Mutki Marg, and others like Praan Sangali. Obviously when one has experienced turiya then potentially every asana is conducive because that chetan is completely pavittar and free of upadhi. But when you are still enslaved by haumai and totally at the behest of vasnas expressed through tan and man (which make their presence known as your bum goes numb!), then you should not pander to them under the illusion that bhagats experienced parmatma in alsorts of asanas.

    great post, can i get some clarification on some definitions on the following terms...

    ananyabhav bhakti, antahkaran-vritti, upasna, turiya

    thanks!
