tableji is the name, tabla is the game

yeah i agree with , each to their own definantly...

ghost, if u are not tryin to be guru da sikh, then everything else is pointless

What is Khalsa?? Whos definiton is being used YOURS or Gurus...(not at anyone personally, jus a general comment) pooran joth jagai ghatt mai thab khaalas thaahi nakhaalas jaanai A person is pure, in whose heart shines the full Divinely Radiant Light. Otherwise, the person is impure(Sarbloh Granth) Bhai Gurdaas Ji says, peeou paahul kha(n)ddadhhaar hoe janam suhaelaa sangath keenee Khalsa manamukhee dhuhaelaa vaah vaah Gobind Singh aapae Gur chaelaa Inhi ki kripa ke saje hum hain neheen mo so gareeb karor parae Guru Gobind Singh ji is saying that thru the Khalsa aid, i have attained this status

i wud say that it is being said to the manmukh...the mann in anand saroop has to have understood its function...

Read Niranjanas post above...gurmat requires jeevan..adopting gurmat is adopting guru granth sahib jis way of thinking...gurmat cannot be confined to just sangeet it is a part of everything... "Hence, Gurmat Sangeet is not special class, branch, gharana or style of music, but rather the utilisation of Sangeet in a Gurmat context." does the gurmat context only apply to the sangeet

Gurmat Sangeet, Sangeet is knowledge of raags, bt what is Gurmat??

i guess mum n dad....i went to camps for those who were amritdhari and those who wanted to be amritdhari as a youngster, as my dad used to lecture....and i guess dad introduced me to the idea ..... then when the camps stopped , dad left it to me, to do what i want....when i got around the age of 18/19 i kinda decided that i wanted to try this, looking at my parents and their relationship and the relationship with me and my sister....comparing that to quite alot of other marraiges that have broken up, etc i asked my dad one day, what is it that keeps u and mum the way u are ??? dad was like its god, if u hve god in a relationship from both sides, then when there are problems, they are easily solved...but both partners have to want god in the equation.. so i guess lookin at how comfortable my life was and the envirnoment in which i had been brought up, i started to get into "sikhism" and i havent looked back since... At the beginnin i saw it as a restriction, but now its more of a release....and guruji is a protecter in that the whole world is described inside guru granth sahib ji....what to avoid ....guruji shows you where the pitfalls are and shows you how to avoid them. i guess at the end of the day, it made sense to me..when i was young i relied on my parents to guide me...now i rely on guru granth sahib ji to guide me and everytime i go off track, something happens and i kno ive gone off....but when i stay on the line....i have peace... ive come to realise that sikhism isnt only for your benefit in future lives, it benefits you now in the current present and the near future aswell.....

Yep, finally someone who sees it like me lol The Gurus have said loads of times how they bow to a sikh of the guru Jo Desai Gursikhra tis niv niv lago paie jeeo This is not nimrata , as that would be a lie, but is the truth, so this brings us to ask, what is a sikh really about?? This is also answer in gurbani, where it is written that a sikh is the guru guroo sikh sikh guroo hai eaeko gur oupadhaes chalaaeae Meaning to say that the guru and his sikh are the same, and they both spread the gurus teachings... Sukhi where u said "where in the world is that sense of humility present in our Gurus who knelt and touched the feet of sinners such as ourselves as a sign of respect? " - That kinda thought requires bibek budhi, only sikhs have that , like for example they will see a drunkyard with a bottle and say i wish i had pyar like that for my guru, the way that guy loves his drink... "instead of spreading love and understanding, we foster hatred and intolerance." - Thats true everywhere, hence and because Nanak dukhia sabh sansar Anyways, sorry if those were rhetorical questions lol....but i strongly urge a moderator to sort this out...this mudslingin shud be sorted out..make it a forum rule...no personal attacks....but i guess its never gna be sorted properly...forums are always gna be a place for ppl to argue and attack each other...id just like to say that even one second of krodh destroys any gud that you might have gained from here.... kaam krodhh jeea mehi chott || Sexual desire and anger are the wounds of the soul. If you feel that ur message is not being understood then quit saying it, your jus wasting your time , and gettin frustrated doesnt help mandhaa kisai n aakheeai parr akhar eaeho bujheeai Do not call anyone bad; read these words, and understand. moorakhai naal n lujheeai Don't argue with fools Forum discussions should be relevant to the topic...which im saying again....also why is it that people cannot distinguish between discussion and argument??? Moderators, do your job properly! oh and sukhi, dnt feel disgusted...and dont be surprised when you see this, it is the way of the world...and you say that "... as time passes, the virtues we proclaim to respect are fading from our own community" well the community is made up of individuals, and if each individual looks at him/herself then the community will flourish...bt guruji says again and again, this is kalyug and its gna get alot worse before it gets better.... its pointless expecting anything...only thing that we can do is try to better ourselves...

Yeah i agree, gurbani says sehj pakey soo meetha hoye nitnem and paath in general i feel is a way to calm down and lower the power of the punj chore.... if u feel calmer and clearer after doing paath, then u have really done it, not jus read it quickly....understanding is important , you need to kno what u are reading for it to make any impact on you.... fateh ji

Nah RupZ i dnt think ur mad, thats exactly how i see it

I totally agree

Spot on :!:

I tried adding different bania...that helped aswell

This is why being a trekkie is so useful, its Omnipotent It Means having absolute power over everything. Omnipotence is an essential attribute of God....i guess wed better start bowing to ya now :roll:

everything takes time, gurbani sez, sehj pakey soo methaa hoye

I totally agree....the whole point in reading gurbani is so that u understand it....understanding it means applyin to ur life as best as u can....
