  1. Bro, astrology is a science, just like other sciences (Physics, Chemistry, etc). It was invented by a great saint, Rikhi Bhrigu jee Maharaaj. Bhul chuk maaf
  2. Can you please explain mattiage tewa in details? Bhul chuk maaf
  3. Does anyone know of a Sikh astrologer, living in Ontario, Canada? If not, does anyone know of any other good astrologer, living in Ontario, Canada? Thanks Bhul chuk maaf
  4. Bro, check with the doctor too; to be on the safe side. Bhul chuk maaf
  5. Daas personally knows two Singhs (associated with Nanaksar). They seem to be of very high avastha and they do amazing kirtan. Dhan Guru Nanak...tu heen nirankaar Bhul chuk maaf
  6. Bro, can you please provide any background on Gyani Harbans Singh jee? Thanks
  7. Quote SGGS Ang- 71 Bhagat Navaie Parkara.There are nine forms of devotional worship Baba Tirath Singh Nirmala in his translation of Pundit Gulab Singhs Bhavrasamrit (p42-44) mentions the nine limbs of Bhakti which are referred to in the Sikh tradition as the Nvai Parkar (Nine methods):1. Sravan - hearing the divine* praises.2. Kirtan - singing the praised of the divine.3. Simran - remembrance of the divines name.4. Padsevena - service and offerings at the divines feet.5. Archana - worship the divine.6. Bandana - prostration before the divine.7. Dasyam - developing feeling or emotion of being the divine's servant.8. Sakhyam - cultivating the emotional bond of friendship.9. Atma Nivedana - surrender of the self to the divine. Unquote (N30SINGH)
  8. Daas was looking for something else, but anyways, thanks brother. A separate post will be made on Navda Bhagtee. Parikaram is also a type of seva, of Maharaaj. Please listen to the katha below. https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=HD2ZixbiDZ4 Bhul chuk maaf
  9. Maharaaj has used three types of Vidiya (field of study) for this term - 'ੴ'. - Kala (drawing) - Ganat (Math) - Akhar (language) Dhan Dhan Satguru Sri Guru Nanak Dev jee Maharaaj
  10. Great news bro. The first target of Sikh preachers should be Hindus, as it would be relatively easier to convert Hindus, compared to people who follow the middle eastern religions. Bhul chuk maaf
  11. Alap - ਅਲਪ - ਛੋਟਾ, ਥੋੜਾ, ਹੋਛਾ, ਨਿਕਾ। http://www.khojgurbani.org/worddetail/gurmukhi/ਅਲਪ Bhul chuk maaf
  12. The above words were heard from katha, done by Baba Avtar Singh jee Badni kalan wale (great scholar). Bhul chuk maaf
  13. Bro, correct me if I am wrong. the three vishraams are - Alap (very short - aka jamkee), Arad (short) and Pooran (complete). For example: ਚੁਪੈ ਚੁਪ ਨ ਹੋਵਈ ਜੇ ਲਾਇ ਰਹਾ ਲਿਵ ਤਾਰ ॥ Alap - after ਚੁਪੈ Arad - after ਹੋਵਈ Pooran - after ਤਾਰ Bhul chuk maaf
  14. Where are Sikhs in majority? Only in Punjab, which is under the Indian government. Where are Sikhs in power? No where on this planet. From a worldly perspective, Sikhs will never be able to do anything with numbers, as the numbers are very less. Most likely, the numbers will stay low in the future too. From a spiritual perspective, focus on quality. Stay united and indulge in immense meditation, so that the Panth has the capacity to take on billions of evil people. Focus on strong prachar, to bring back all the niguray into Sikhi and encourage Sehajdharis to take amrit, Who has denied that Maharaja Ranjit Singh used to drink alcohol or some Bhangi sardars used bhang? Bro, we must follow Gurbani, not what some humans did in the past. Even, female infanticide (big sin) is a problem among so-called Sikhs Bhul chuk maaf
  15. Dev Archan is the missing one in the original post. Thanks bro. Can you please explain them in details? Bhul chuk maaf
  16. From a worldly perspective: So what is your plan? Sikhs don't even have a single country in the world. Sikhs are a tiny minority in India, which is one of the biggest nuclear super powers in the world. Sikh population, including all niguray, is no where close to that of Muslims and Christians. So what is your suggestion, regarding increasing the numbers? Even if the population is increased, minimal power (as a community), will not be sufficient to do anything substantial in the world. Most likely, Sikhs will not be able to reach, even 25% of the Muslim population, even if people like you try your best. Bhul chuk maaf
  17. So what is wrong with the sakhi? Can you please provide evidence that Sri Charitropakhian Sahib jee was read to prostitutes? Even if it was, even SSGGSJ verses can be misinterpreted to perform anti-Gurmat activities. So should we stop believing in SSGGSJ? Bhul chuk maaf
  18. Let's see what happens in the future. Even if, one includes patits/niguray in Sikh population, still our population is no where close to that of Muslims/Christians. If there is another world war, it will be a nuclear one. There will massive destruction. At the end Khalsa will rule .............Raj Karega Khalsa.............even if there are only 100 Sikhs left. We should leave the method to Satguru jee, rather than thinking excessively, about increasing our numbers. No force can destroy Khalsa. Bhul chuk maaf
  19. Mr = It is true they have a degree of financial power exceeding their low population. But let's not kid ourselves. The Sikh Panth does not have the kind of economic clout that Jews. Sikh are 0.33% of the global population worldwide (1 in 300 people are Sikhs if we include all Amritdhari's, Kesdhari's and Sehajdhari's). Economically we hold around 0.1% of all global wealth (about one thousandth of all economic wealth globally). Thus it is pointless to consider the Jews role models in this respect. - If God can give Jews so much power and money, he can also give it to the Sikhs. Paapi = Therefore, quality is more important that quantity. Mr = In the modern paradigm (in the temporal sense) quality cannot always outstrip quantity. Only in the spiritual sense in respect of Amritdhari Sikhs is quality more important than quantity. Quantity would have ensured our victory in 1849, 1947 and 1984. - 1849 - Punjabis made mistakes too - 1947 - The whole of Punjab was to be given to Pakistan, but Sikhs were able to acquire even those areas, where Muslims were more than them. Furthermore, it was not a war. They were riots. - 1984 - Are you sure that Sikhs (as a community) were completely on the right side, before 1984? Are you sure, innocent Hindus were not being harassed/killed in Punjab, before 1984? Bhul chuk maaf
  20. Quality approach did work in the 18th and 19th century. It can still work. Jews are a good example of this. They are so few in numbers, but have great powers. Bhul chuk maaf
  21. Bro, your point does make little sense, but you might be aware that when Sikhs ruled Punjab, Sikhs were (most likely) less than 15% of the total population of Punjab. The reason was Satguru's kirpa as majority of the Sikhs, during those times, were following the orders of Satguru jee. Another example - Do you know, that the total population of Jews is less than that of Sikhs? Do you know, how much power they have? Therefore, quality is more important that quantity. It is better to have 5 Singhs, compared to 1000 idiots/cowards like me, as 5 lions are more than enough for 1000 sheeps. Bhul chuk maaf
