A_Singh_but_cant_Sing Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 Fateh ji, Not really Singh ji, Oragami is not sad, but kewl. Its an art that only a few have and one can make really original pieces of work. Sorry I dont know it yet, but will want to learn it in the near future. Fateh ji.

Guest Javanmard Posted November 19, 2003 Report Share Posted November 19, 2003 PROVIDE REFERANCE and not ur assumations altho SGGS says: Dear MrSIngh, I don't assume: I know. The malas of the Gurus are still conserved. SIkhnet has a picture of one of the malas used by Guru Hargobind. The Gurus are just saying that the mala does not liberate they're not saying that is bad to use it! :bling: :bling: :bling: :bling: :bling: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

CaNaDiAn_jAtTi Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 I myself have a mala made of rudraksh beads, it's pretty kewl stuff, although i don't use it enuff....but it does help i think because one is able to forget about countin or anything and focus on the simrin more....and one can easily achieve a simple pace with it that just completely relaxes u.... I do a lot of simrin just walking around though, because i'm just way to busy to sit down and meditate, finals r coming up!!!! My dad has a mala which glows in the dark!!! it's pretty awesome.....

Mugermach Singh Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 My dad has a mala which glows in the dark!!! it's pretty awesome..... lol, is that cos it generates sooo much naaam/Shakti when its being used. I.e starts to glow... lol lol (joke) Where/ how did he manage to get a glow in the dark mala??? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
CaNaDiAn_jAtTi Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 I don't know, I think he got it from india like 5 yrs back when he went, it's placed beside a Sants picture in our house and when the lights r off and u walk by it, it's pretty kewl.....it's white otherwise, but glows green in the night Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Javanmard Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 Depends on the type of simran you're doing. Tantrik practices require malas made of human bones for example. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mugermach Singh Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 The Yoga Sutras of Patanjali mention a special sidhi by which you start having a glowing aura around you! to get that glow, all you need to do, is go into a small room, turn off all the lights, have one candle lit. Then Let one Rip. You will be glowing.... Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nihal_Kaur Posted November 20, 2003 Report Share Posted November 20, 2003 OK earlier I said that a malaa for counting how many mool manter paats you do for example isn't that practical and it is easier for me to count on my fingers...however that only applies to when I'm at the Gurdwara. :roll: And since I practically live there I naturally just thought of that as my natural envronment for using a malaa, and today I thought, if I was a home there's absolutely nothing wrong with using a malaa to count to make sure that your own personal targets of amount of paat should be at least maintained. Who is going to see you apart from family? However at the gurdwara where everyone sees you, its impractical because then all of a sudden sangat will think very highly of you but it doesn't stop there, they will tell you how highly they think of you too (trust me on this) and then the age old trap of homai opens up ..thus ruining all the hard work thats been done! :shock: :shock: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Well I get quite another reaction! People are quite suprised to see someone use a mala!!! IT's as if you came from Mars really! But I don't care, it's like a gadjet to me and I know my limitations to jnow that those 108 pearls don't make me special, maybe just a bit... naughty :twisted: :twisted: Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
