  1. There are certain shabads mentioned in the Shardha Pooran Granth, which can help an individual to gain more wealth. For example: Bhul chuk maaf
  2. The word "Bibi" is from Arabic language, and is used as a honorific title for Muslim women. So, IMHO, the word prefix "Bibi" would indicate a Muslim woman in those times. Bhul chuk maaf
  3. Try to fix it, before it's too late. Remember, health is wealth. Bhul chuk maaf
  4. That is bad for health too. Quote Sleepiness Causes Accidents. ... Sleep Loss Dumbs You Down. ... Sleep Deprivation Can Lead to Serious Health Problems. ... Sleepiness Is Depressing. ... Lack of Sleep Ages Your Skin. ... Sleepiness Makes You Forgetful. Unquote Bhul chuk maaf
  5. There is an injunction in one of the Rehatnamas, which prohibit a Sikh from dancing (which would include Bhangra, Gidha, etc). It goes something like this - "Sikh hovai so nachay so tankheeyaa" (A Sikh, who dances, is eligible for punishment). Can anyone please pinpoint the exact source of it? Thanks Bhul chuk maaf
  6. Learned a new word from my mother. ਤਸਲਾ - Shallow pan, Basin Bhul chuk maaf
  7. Quote Police are searching for two men who they say detonated a bomb inside the Bombay Bhel restaurant in Mississauga, Ont., that injured 15 people. A 35-year-old Brampton man, a 48-year-old Mississauga woman, and a 62-year-old Mississauga woman suffered critical injuries and were rushed to a Toronto trauma centre, according to Peel Region paramedics. All three have since been released from hospital. Unquote[1] [1] - http://www.cbc.ca/news/canada/toronto/mississauga-plaza-explosion-1.4677404 Bhul chuk maaf
  8. Received the news that Dhadrianwala wants security for his trip to Canada. Bhul chuk maaf
  9. ਹਰਿ ਮਨਿ ਤਨਿ ਵਸਿਆ ਸੋਈ ॥ ਜੈ ਜੈ ਕਾਰੁ ਕਰੇ ਸਭੁ ਕੋਈ ॥ He, the Lord abides in my mind and body, and every one, now, applauds me. Bhul chuk maaf
  10. If you are pronouncing (for Gurbani recitation) the siharis like the matra for इ in Hindi, then you are wrong. The sihari in Gurmukhi does not have the same pronunciation as the matra for इ. So, for example, सिखाना in Hindi is pronounced differently than ਸਿਖਾਨਾ in Punjabi (or at least when it comes to Gurbani pronunciation). Bhul chuk maaf
  11. Thanks for that. It's a very subtle sound. It's like a shortened version of ੇ. Even, if someone pronounces it as Har, that would be fine, but Hari and Haree are both wrong (for ਹਰਿ). Bhul chuk maaf
  12. Daas has already answered your concern above. Examples were also provided. Daas does not believe that spiritual practices other than the ones approved in Gurmat, cannot bring you closer to Waheguru jee. They might, but Sikhs must refrain from following them. Dancing is one of them. Narrower perspective is to say "my way or the highway". One can believe that some practice is good for a person, without actually following it or encouraging it. Bhul chuk maaf
  13. Thanks for bringing this verse up. This verse can actually be used to prove that dancing is prohibited in Sikhism. The above tuk is not said in a positive sense. It is similar to saying, "the whole world is engrossed in maya and so are you". The next verse will make it more clear. ਸੋਈ ਜੀਉ ਨ ਵਜਦਾ ਜਿਸੁ ਅਲਹੁ ਕਰਦਾ ਸਾਰ ॥੧੧੦॥ That soul (or person) alone does not dance with it, who is under the care of the Lord God. ||110|| Let's look into more sources*: * - This might go a bit off-topic, but it would be good to understand the above verse in details, as it has come up in this discussion. 1. Bhai Manmohan Singh jee: Farid! The world dances as the devil makes it dance and thou too are playing with it; that person alone dances not, who is under the Lord's care. 2. Amir Bhandar Teeka (Interesting footnote from Saarkutavali): 3. Prof. Sahib Singh jee: 4. Gurbani Arth Bhandar: Bhul chuk maaf
  14. ਰੁਝਾਨ - Propensity, Tendency Bhul chuk maaf
  15. ਤੂ ਚਿਤਿ ਆਵਹਿ ਤੇਰੀ ਮਇਆ ॥ (Ang 389) You enter into my mind, by Your Kind Mercy. Bhul chuk maaf
  16. ਆਖੇਪ - Censure, Objection Bhul chuk maaf
  17. Good reply by Gyani Gurjit Singh jee to Dhadrianwala's false allegations against Damdami Taksal. He does so in a respectful manner. Bhul chuk maaf
  18. Quote People who oversleep can experience a number of side effects as their bodies struggle to sync up with the right time. For example, some research has shown that people who oversleep often complain about headaches throughout the day. Researchers speculate getting too much sleep has an effect on certain neurotransmitters in the brain, especially serotonin. Other potential side effects of oversleeping include lower back pain, stroke, diabetes, and heart disease.

  19. The 5 Kakkars are mentioned in Gurbani (Sri Dasam Granth). “ The following five K’s are the mark of Sikhi. These five can never be parted from the body. Kara, Kirpan, Kashera, Kangha, recognise these as four of them. The fifth is Kesh, without which the other four are useless. “ Bhul chuk maaf
  20. From Sri Chaubees Avtaar Sahib jee (Sri Dasam Granth Sahib jee) ਸਿਖਾ ਹੀਣ ਕੋਈ ਮੰਤ੍ਰ ਨ ਫੁਰੈ ॥ ਜੋ ਕੋਈ ਜਪੈ ਉਲਟ ਤਿਹ ਪਰੈ ॥੧੦॥ Those without hair or without the lock of hair on the crown of their heads could not remember* any mantra and if anyone (those without hair) repeated the mantra, there was negative influence of the mantra on him.10. * - That part of the above translation might be wrong. It is probably referring to Mantar Sidhi, not just to remembering a mantar. Bhul chuk maaf
  21. ਬਰੂ - kind of a course, wild grass Bhul chuk maaf
  22. Case 2 (Red/Green colors indicate the Vishraams*) ਪਾਇ ਲਗਉ ਮੋਹਿ ਕਰਉ ਬੇਨਤੀ ਕੋਊ ਸੰਤੁ ਮਿਲੈ ਬਡਭਾਗੀ ॥੧॥ I touch His Feet, and offer my prayer to Him. If only I had the great good fortune to meet the Saint. ਪਾਇ ਲਗਉ ਮੋਹਿ ਕਰਉ ਬੇਨਤੀ ਕੋਊ ਸੰਤੁ ਮਿਲੈ ਬਡਭਾਗੀ ॥੧॥ I touch my Feet, and offer my prayer to Him. If only I had the great good fortune to meet the Saint. * - this is a case of Alap Vishraam (green color). Bhul chuk maaf
