  1. Though the meaning of Gurprasad, is not usually understood in the right perspective ....neverthless, what veer N30 Singh states, and the meaning he gives, is acceptable. Because when you have taken the shelter under the Guru, He gives you only what He has ..... And He, only has "bharpoor bhandaar" of the wealth of Nam, and from that "anmol khazana", He gives us a particle as "parsad", out of His "daya", His "meher", which fills us with His Consciousness and anand or bliss. So in this way, Gurparsad is acceptable in both the ways also. Waheguru!

  4. One may ask, how can one please beloved Wahiguru? Because as the Bani says: mat nirgun ham maylai kabahoon apunee kirpaa Dhaar. My intellect is worthless; I am filthy and polluted. Please shower me with Your Mercy sometime. hamray avgun bahut bahut hai baho baar baar har ganat na aavai. My demerits are so many and numerous. I have sinned so many times, over and over again. O Lord, they cannot be counted. So if we are already so low and dirty, how come can we love Him, or please Him, just by ourselves? The answer is, we can never ever do so just by ourselves. For that we have to join Sadh Sangat, where we get our minds purified, and learn to stay in His mauj. And so, our Gurus have said, if you want to please Akal Purukh, just follow our words: nit uth gaavhu parabh kee banee. Rise early, and sing the Glorious Word of God's Bani. aath pahar har simrahu paraanee. Twenty-four hours a day, meditate in remembrance on the Lord, O mortal. So simple and clear is the way to devote oneself to Wahiguru.
  5. Wahiguru is our paalanhaar, our sustainer, we have heard it many times. Many a times also we are afraid, that if we give more time and attention to Wahiguru, through His devotion or abhyaas, who will look after our work, our family, our jobs...etc. For that our doubt and uncomplete faith, Sree Guru Arjun Dev Maharaj, assures us that, if we give our heart , mind and body without any reservation to Him, He will not leave us, rather hold us tighter like a mother to its baby child. Satgur sikh kaa, halat palat savaarai. The True Guru, arranges this world and the next for His Sikh. The thing is we profess love and devtion to Wahiguru according to our limited and polluted minds, but according to our Guru Sahibans, when we love somebody we want to please that being, by doing what it likes most.... Wahiguru, is also a jealous lover. He wants us to give ourselves totally to Him, by surrendering our ego, our bondages, our ignorance....just by only doing what He expects from us, which is to live and love Him according to the Bani. He does not wants our money, nor properties...nothing, but only our mind and soul, full of humility, love, devotion, and fear of not doing anything, which He could dislike...

  6. Do not loose heart, attach yourself to Shabad, board the ship of Shabad and sail across the ocean Blessed are those devotees who have made Shabad, the mainstay of their lives and whose hearts are illumined by Shabad
  7. Being this thread related to different stages of Nam as well, Sree Guru Nanak Dev Maharaj in Raag Sorath, tells us in short: Tum Saachay, ham Tum hee raachay, Shabad bhayd fun saachay. You are True, and I am absorbed into You; through the jugtee of the Shabad, I shall ultimately become True as well. He is telling us that: Wahiguru is the ultimate, the highest stage of permanent and unchangeable truth. But, through a perfect technique, namely Nam Simran, anyone can become as true and eternal like Him, by merging in Him, through that very technique, that very jugtee. This is the mahanta, the wadeeayee of His Nam. Wah wah Saachay Badshah, Toon Beant Apaar Soami.
  8. MEDICINAL HERBS AND REMEDIES ONION (Allium Cepa): The onion can be used as an antibiotic, a cleanser, and an expectorant. It also reduces the levels of blood sugar and cholesterol. Hot onions are used for colds. They promote sweating and reduce fever. Plain onions are also used for insect stings and warts. Just apply them raw straight onto the wart or insect bite. CABBAGE (Brassica Oleracea): Cabbage's key actions are anti-inflammatory, antibacterial and a liver restorative. Cabbage (both red and white) is used for many problems including acne, digestive problems and chest infections. Also, cabbage is good for migraines, water retention, and matitis. It is also very good for arthritis. Bandage one crushed leaf of cabbage to the arthritic joint. TEA (Camellia Sinesis): Tea is an astringent, antioxidant, and an antibacterial. Tea is used for many problems. Black tea is very good for diarrhea and dysentery. Green tea is known to help prevent tooth decay and to help strengthen the immune system. Green tea is also good for cuts and scrapes. Apply green tea bags directly to the cut or scrape, which will stop the bleeding. Green tea is also good to soothe insect bites. Oolong tea is good for reducing cholesterol and improve digestion. CINNAMON (Cinnamon zelanicum): Cinnamon is commonly used for digestive and circulatory stimulant. Cinnamon is sold in sticks or in powder, made from the inner bark of trees. Cinnamon is good for colds and chills. It is also very good for indigestion, colic, and diarrhea. LEMON (Citrus Limon): Lemon's key actions are detoxifying and antibacterial. Lemon is used to boost up the immune system, counters infections and can relieve rheumatic pains. Lemon is also good for neuralgia, however you must apply it externally. For sore throats it is good to gargle with diluted lemon juice.
  9. THE BODY IS LIKE A DREAM, WHEN THE BODY ITSELF IS UNREAL, THEN ALL THINGS OF THIS WORLD ARE UNREAL NAM ALONE IS TRUE HOLD FAST TO IT.
  10. JUST AS IN GEOMETRY, THE SHORTEST DISTANCE BETWEEN 2 POINTS, IS A STRAIGHT LINE, SO IS NAM SIMRAN, THE SHORTEST AND FASTEST WAY TO WAHIGURU
  11. Dear Kamal, it is but natural that the mind does not get the taste of bhakti when performed. And that is because, it is used to run outwards from times inmemorial, after sensual pleasures(bhogs) like a wild horse.... so naturally it does not like to sit quite.... Gurmukhs tell us, that as we know the mind is fond of pleasures, of tastes....so in order to win it, we have to give it such a taste, that after tasting it, it will feel satiated and stop jumping or running, it will become motionless.... And according to Gurmat, Nam is the only taste which can do so... At first it will not like to sit and do Simran...it will be like chewing iron, or licking a stone...but neverthless, we should insist. Here lies the secret in Parmarath, to insist continously.... no matter if one´s life goes away, that is not time wasted, but time gained. By His grace, one will then get better conditions, better envoirements, to perform His bhakti... He sees, that His child is trying the best to meet Him ..... He knows we are weak, and we are not capable of anything by ourselves, but He values our sincere intentions and efforts... The baby child wants to walk...he takes a few steps and if he is about to fall, the father extends out his hand, and gets hold of the child...this is how the child learns to walk. We too, have to tread the path of ruhaniyat by ourselves, there is no other choice for us, if we want to meet Him The thing is we are donkeys, we are moorakhs, we do not even know the a b c d of Gurmat ..... so if there is only choice left for us, it is, we have to put into practice, what the Bani says. Because it is only by practical efforts, that we can meet Him. No matter how much love we think we have for Him, no matter how much rituals we perform, no matter if we remember by heart all spiritual texts, potheeas, etc.... but if we have not done the sacred job of Nam Simran... we have done nothing. The Bani says, that if you do any other outer practices, but you have not done Nam Simran...it is all a waste, like decorating a dead body. How much more clear do we want the Bani to be? It is a pity, we have the best "spiritual marg" :sikhi, the best spiritual teachers: "Gurmukhs", but our behaving, out attitude... is like of those mortals of any other dharam, means wandering outside .... looking and searching outside, when our Gurus have told us: Atam meh Ram, Ram meh Atam. Means, the Lord is there within You, and when you find or realize Him there, you shall become one with Him. They have also told us, that the method to realize Him, is by meditating on Him, by His Simran ..... Then too we say we are sikhs. Lets us put our hand on our hearts, and ask ourselves, how many of us do we follow these instructions of our Guru Sahibans with faith? Leave faith apart, but actually follow them implicitly... The answer will be, some in millions... But then who is to be blamed? Wahiguru? No. Not at all. He did His job perfectly, by giving us the right path, the right method, through His Gurmukhs ... it is our fault totally, that we are wandering aimlessly like donkeys, putting our mouths here and there in the dust bins...looking into garbage ....when the pool of Amrit is within ourselves. All gyan, all dhyan, all shub karams ...will come to us effortlessly, if only we follow Gurmat. We do not need anything else. His bani is all powerful, is the giver of all bliss, all knowledge, all love, just as Wahiguru Himself is. Because the real purpose of Gurmat is not to entangle us in this world, but to free ourselves from it, by giving us the opportunity, to serve Him, with love, devotion and faith, in terms of Nam Simran.So that, we can become pure paviter, and merge in Him, that´s it. Waheguru.
  12. Conversation with GOD so very beautiful... God Hello. Did you call me? Me Called you? No. Who is this? God This is GOD. I heard your prayers. So I thought I will chat. Me I do pray. Just makes me feel good. I am actually busy now. I am in the midst of something. God What are you busy at? Ants are busy too. Me Don't know. But I can't find free time. Life has become hectic. It's rush hour all the time. God Sure. Activity gets you busy. But productivity gets you results. Activity consumes time. Productivity frees it. Me I understand. But I still can't figure out. By the way, I was not expecting YOU to buzz me on instant messaging chat. God Well I wanted to resolve your fight for time, by giving you some clarity. In this net era, I wanted to reach you through the medium you are comfortable with. Me Tell me, why has life become complicated now? God Stop analyzing life. Just live it. Analysis is what makes it complicated. Me Why are we then constantly unhappy? God Your today is the tomorrow that you worried about yesterday. You are worrying because you are analyzing. Worrying has become your habit. That's why you are not happy. Me But how can we not worry when there is so much uncertainty? God Uncertainty is inevitable, but worrying is optional. Me But then, there is so much pain due to uncertainty. God Pain is inevitable, but suffering is optional. Me If suffering is optional, why do good people always suffer? God Diamond cannot be polished without friction. Gold cannot be purified without fire. Good people go through trials, but don't suffer. With that experience, their life become better not bitter. Me You mean to say such experience is useful? God Yes. In every term, Experience is a hard teacher. She gives the test first and the lessons afterwards. Me But still, why should we go through such tests? Why can't we be free from problems? God Problems are Purposeful Roadblocks Offering Beneficial Lessons (to) Enhance Mental Strength. Inner strength comes from struggle and endurance, not when you are free from problems. Me Frankly in the midst of so many problems, we don't know where we are heading. God If you look outside, you will not know where you are heading. Look inside. Looking outside, you dream. Looking inside, you awaken. Eyes provide sight. Heart provides insight. Me Sometimes not succeeding fast seems to hurt more than moving in the right direction. What should I do? God Success is a measure as decided by others. Satisfaction is a measure as decided by you. Knowing the road ahead is more satisfying than knowing your road ahead. You work with the compass. Let others work with the clock. Me In tough times, how do you stay motivated? God Always look at how far you have come rather than how far you have to go. Always count your blessing, not what you are missing. Me What surprises you about people? God When they suffer they ask, "why me?" When they prosper, they never ask "Why me". Everyone wishes to have truth on their side, but few want to be on the side of the truth. Me Sometimes I ask, who am I, why am I here. I can't get the answer. God Seek not to find who you are, but to determine who you want to be. Stop looking for a purpose as to why you are here. Create it. Life is not a process of discovery but a process of creation. Me How can I get the best out of life? God Face your past without regret. Handle your present with confidence. Prepare for the future without fear. Me One last question. Sometimes I feel my prayers are not answered. God There are no unanswered prayers. At times, the answer is NO. Me Thank you for this wonderful chat. God Well. Keep the faith and drop the fear. Don't believe your doubts and doubt your beliefs. Life is a mystery to solve not a problem to resolve. Trust me. Life is wonderful if you know how to live. "Life is not measured by the number of breaths we take but by the moments that took our breath away
  13. "Lesson To Learn" One Day A Construction Supervisor Standing On The 6th Floor Of A Building Was Calling A Worker, Working On The Ground Floor. Due Massive Construction Noise, The Worker On The Ground Floor Did Not Hear His Supervisor Calling. To Draw The Attention Of The Worker, The Supervisor Threw A 10 Rupee Note From Up, Which Fell Right In Front Of The Worker. The Worker Picked Up The 10 Rupee Note, Pocketed The Money And Continued With His Work. To Draw The Attention Of The Worker Once Again, The Supervisor Now Threw A 500 Rupee Note. Sighting The 500 Rupee Note, The Worker Picket It Up, Put It In His Pocket And Continued With The Job He Was Doing. Once Again Desperate To Draw The Workers Attention, The Supervisor Picked A Small Stone And Threw It On The Worker. The Stone Hit The Worker's Head. This Time The Worker Looked Up And The Supervisor Communicated With Him. This Story Is Same As Of Our Life. The Lord From Up Wants To Communicate With Us, But We Are Busy Doing Our Worldly Jobs. Then God Gives Us Small Gifts, Which We Just Keep Without Seeing From Where we Got Them. Once Again, God Showers Us With More Gifts In Different Forms. We Feel The Same, Just Keep The Gifts Without Seeing Or Realizing From Where They Came And Without Thanking God. We Just Presume That We Are Lucky. Then, When We Are Hit With Small Stones, Which We Call Problems, Then We Look Up And Finally Communicate With God. Henceforth, Every Time We Get Gifts, We Should Thank God Immediately And Not Wait Till We Are Hit By Small Stones (Problems) And Only Then Communicate With God.
  14. HAVE A NICE DAY Many People Will Walk In And Out Of Your Life. But Only True Friends Will Leave Footprints In Your Heart. To Handle Yourself, Use Your Head; To Handle Others, Use Your Heart. Anger Is Only One Letter Short Of Danger. If Someone Betrays You Once, It Is His Fault; If He Betrays You Twice, It Is Your Fault. Great Minds Discuss Ideas; Average Minds Discuss Events; Small Minds Discuss People. He, Who Loses Money, Loses Much; He, Who Loses A Friend, Loses Much More; He,Who Loses Faith, Loses All. Learn From The Mistakes Of others. You Can't Live Long Enough To Make Them All Yourself.
  15. DO GOOD BE GOOD Every day a woman baked bread for members of her family and an extra one for a hungry passerby. She kept the extra bread on the window sill, for whosoever would take it away. Every day, a hunch-back came and took away the bread. Instead of expressing gratitude, he muttered the following words as he went his way: "The evil you do remains with you. The good you do, comes back to you!" This went on, day after day. Every day, the hunch-back came, picked up the bread and uttered the words: "The evil you do, remains with you. The good you do, comes back to you!" The woman felt irritated. "Not a word of gratitude," she said to herself, "Everyday this hunch-back utters this same jingle! What does he mean?" One day, out of frustration, she decided to do away with him. "I shall get rid of this hunch-back," she thought. And what did she do? She added poison to the bread she prepared for him! As she was about to place it on the window sill, her hands trembled. "What is this I am doing?" she said. Immediately she threw the bread into the fire, prepared another one and kept it on the window sill. As usual, the hunch-back came, picked up the bread, and muttered the words: "The evil you do, remains with you. The good you do, comes back to you!" The hunch-back proceeded on his way, blissfully unaware of the war raging in the mind of the woman. Each day, as the woman placed the bread on the window-sill, she offered a prayer for her son who had gone to a distant place to seek his fortune. For many months, she had no news of him.. She always prayed for his safe return. That evening, there was a knock on the door. As she opened it, she was surprised to find her son standing in the doorway.. He had grown thin and lean. His garments were tattered and torn. He was hungry, starved and weak. As he saw his mother, he said, "Mom, it's a miracle I'm here. While I was but a mile away, I was so hungry that I collapsed. I would have died, but just then an old hunch-back passed by. I begged of him for a small part of his food, and he was kind enough to give me a whole bread. As he gave it to me, he said, "This is what I eat everyday. Today, I shall give it to you, for your need is greater than mine!"" When the mother heard those words, her face turned pale with fear. She leaned against the door for support. She remembered the poisoned bread that she had made that morning. Had she not burnt it in the fire, it would have been eaten by her own son, and he would have lost his life! It was then that she realized the significance of the words: "The evil you do remains with you. The good you do, comes back to you!" Be Good and Do Good. Don't ever stop doing good, even if it's not appreciated at that time.
  16. DRINKING WATER Something I didn't know: I asked my Doctor why do I and other people urinate (pee) so much at night time. Answer from my Cardiac Doctor: Gravity holds water in the lower part of your body when you are upright. When you lie down and the lower body (legs and other things) seeks level with the kidneys, it is then that the kidneys remove the water because it is easier. This then ties in with the last statement! I knew you needed a minimum amount of water to help flush the toxins out of your body, but this was news to me. Correct time to drink water... Very Important. From A Cardiac Specialist! Drinking water at a certain time maximizes its effectiveness on the body: 2 glasses of water after waking up - helps activate internal organs 1 glass of water 30 minutes before a meal - helps digestion 1 glass of water before taking a bath - helps lower blood pressure 1 glass of water before going to bed - avoids stroke or heart attack

  18. Attitude for life Someone asked Life: Why are you so difficult...????!!! Life Smiled and said "You people never appreciate easy things"... Forgive others, not because they deserve forgiveness, but because you deserve Peace... Unbelievable fact -- Our body is full of water but wherever it hurts, blood comes out & Our heart is full of Blood but whenever it hurts, TEARS comes out. If you have a "Magnetic" personality and yet people don't get attracted to you - it's not your fault. They have "Iron" deficiency in their bodies Coolest. . . . . . "if we sleep on flowers, it’s called our first night" "if flowers sleep on us, it’s called our last night" Reality of life.... Pearl of the Day: "If You want to feel Rich, Just Count All The Things You have, That Money cannot Buy." Superb Sentences: Shakespeare- "Never Play With The Feelings Of Others Because U May Win The Game But The Risk Is That U Will Surely Lose The Person For A Life Time". Napoleon- "The world suffers a lot. Not because of the violence of bad people, But because of the silence of good people!" Einstein- "I am thankful to all those who said NO to me It's because of them I did it myself." Abraham Lincoln- "If friendship is your weakest point then you are the strongest person in the world." Shakespeare- "Laughing Faces Do Not Mean That There Is Absence Of Sorrow! But It Means That They Have The Ability To Deal With It". William Arthur- "Opportunities Are Like Sunrises, If You Wait Too Long You Can Miss Them". Hitler- "When You Are In The Light, Everything Follows You, But When You Enter Into The Dark, Even Your Own Shadow Doesn't Follow You." Shakespeare- "Coin Always Makes Sound But The Currency Notes Are Always Silent. So When Your Value Increases Keep Quiet.
  19. SUCCESS Success Is Not A Secret. It Is A Choice That Is Made Over And Over Again. Success Is Not Something That Can Be Denied To You. It Is Something That You Can Always Choose To Accept. How Do You Accept Success? You Accept Success By Making The Effort Instead Of Making Excuses. You Accept Success By Taking Responsibility Instead Of Counting On Someone Else To Do It For You. You Accept Success By Being Truthful With Others And, Just As Importantly, With Yourself. You Accept Success When Things Get Tough, By Being Positive And Innovative Instead Of Becoming Despondent. You Accept Success By Being Who You Are And By Contributing What You Can, Rather Than Pretending To Be Someone Else. Every Day You Can Choose Either To Accept Success Or To Just Let It Pass You By. With Each Thought, Each Word, Each Action, Choose To Accept Success.
  20. Quotes of the day "Life will bring you pain all by itself. Your responsibility is to create joy." ~Milton Erickson "When it comes to life, the critical thing is whether you take things for granted or take them with gratitude." ~G.K. Chesterton
  21. The Door of Happiness When the door of happiness closes, another opens, but often times we look so long at the closed door that we don't see the one which has been opened for us. The best kind of friend is the kind you can sit on a porch and swing with, never say a word, and then walk away feeling like it was the best conversation you've every had. It's true that we don't know what we've got until we lose it, but it's also true that we don't know what we've been missing until it arrives. Giving someone all your love is never an assurance that they'll love you back! Don't expect love in return; just wait for it to grow in their heart but if it doesn't, be content it grew in yours.It takes only a minute to get a crush on someone, an hour to like someone, and a day to love someone, but it takes a lifetime to forget someone. Don't go for looks; they can deceive. Don't go for wealth; even that fades away. Go for someone who makes you smile because it takes only a smile to make a dark day seem bright. Find the one that makes your heart smile. There are moments in life when you miss someone so much that you just want to pick them from your dreams and hug them for real! Dream what you want to dream; go where you want to go; be what you want to be, because you have only one life and one chance to do all the things you want to do. May you have enough happiness to make you sweet,enough trials to make you strong, enough sorrow to keep you human, enough hope to make you happy. Always put yourself in others' shoes. If you feel that it hurts you, it probably hurts the other person, too. The happiest of people don't necessarily have the best of everything;they just make the most of everything that comes along their way. Happiness lies for those who cry,those who hurt, those who have searched,and those who have tried, for only they can appreciate the importance of people who have touched their lives.Love begins with a smile, grows with a kiss and ends with a tear. The brightest future will always be based on a forgotten past,you can't go on well in life until you let go of your past failures and heartaches.When you were born, you were crying and everyone around you was smiling. Live your life so that when you die,you're the one who is smiling and everyone around you is crying.
  22. Our Deepest Fear Our Deepest Fear Is Not That We Are Inadequate. Our Deepest Fear Is That We Are Powerful Beyond Measure. It Is Our Light, Not Our Darkness That Most Frightens Us. We Ask Ourselves, Who Am I To Be Brilliant, Gorgeous, Talented, Fabulous? Actually, Who ...Are You Not To Be? You Are A Child Of God. Your Playing Small Does Not Serve The World. There Is Nothing Enlightened About Shrinking So That Other People Won't Feel Insecure Around You. We Are All Meant To Shine, As Children Do. We Were Born To Make Manifest The Glory Of God That Is Within Us. It's Not Just In Some Of Us; It's In Everyone. And As We Let Our Own Light Shine,We Unconsciously Give Other People Permission To Do The Same. As We Are Liberated From Our Own Fear,Our Presence Automatically Liberates Others.”

  24. Lord Buddha And The Brahman..! Lord Buddha was sitting under a banyan tree. One day, a furious Brahman came to him and started abusing him. The Brahman thought that Lord Buddha would reciprocate in the same manner, but to his utter surprise, there was not the slightest change in the expression on his face. Now, the Brahman became more furious. He hurled more and more abuses at Buddha. However, Lord Buddha was completely unmoved. Actually there was a look of compassion on his face. Ultimately the Brahman was tired of abusing him. He asked, "I have been abusing you, but why are you not angry at all ?" Lord Buddha calmly replied, "My dear brother, I have not accepted a single abuse from you." "But you heard all of them, didn't you?" The Brahman argued half-heartedly. Buddha said, "I do not need the abuses, so why should I even hear them?" Now the Brahman was even more puzzled. He could not understand the calm reply from Lord Buddha. Looking at his disturbed face, Buddha further explained, "All those abuses remain with you." "It cannot be possible. I have hurled all of them at you," the Brahmin persisted. Buddha calmly repeated his reply, "But I have not accepted even a single abuse from you ! Dear brother, suppose you give some coins to somebody, and if he does not accept them, with whom will those coins remain?" The Brahman replied, "If I have given the coins and not needed by someone, then naturally they would remain with me." With a meaningful smile on his face, Buddha said, "Now you are right. The same has happened with your abuses. You came here and hurled abuses at me, but I have not accepted a single abuse from you. Hence, all those abuses remain with you only. So there is no reason to be angry with you." The Brahman remained speechless. He was ashamed of his behavior and begged for Buddha's forgiveness. Lesson To Learn From This Story: Inner calmness and peace are keys to contented life. You know who you are and what you want in life, so don't respond to what person said about you in anger. Control your anger with patience and calmness. That is the biggest strength of Wise men. Never take some one for granted, Hold every person Close to your Heart because you might wake up one day and realize that you have lost a diamond while you were too busy collecting stones.
