Harman deep singh

I think their intentions are pretty good, they just need some education regarding doing the Sukhasan sewa.
Baba Nand Singh ji would used to say Can you fit yourself in a closet or can you sit comfortably on a small stool.  Similarly the pargat deh of Guru Sahib should be treated like a 6ft full human body.  Proper space is a must.
I think they just need some education, that should solve the problem, unless they become defensive, which our lot have a lot of habit of resulting in tu tu main main & debate.
Everyone gets so defensive when it comes to practices, people think if someone is giving them advice they are hating on them lol
 
 
 

Where is this happening brother? This is not good.
Daas wonders if these people (organizers/managers of the above place) were asked to fit in a closet (leave aside a shelf) and sleep. How would they feel?
 
Bhul chuk maaf

1. Brother, Maharaaj will go to a person, who has Sharda and Prem. Having said that, physical requirements for keeping a Saroop are mandatory. People, who cannot met those standards, should desist from keeping a Saroop. They have other options - Pothis Sahibs, Gutka Sahibs, Digital Saroops, etc
2. All the succeeding 10 Satgurus are incarnations of Satguru Sri Guru Nanak Rai Dev Bedi jee Maharaaj, who is himself the incarnation of the Almighty God. There is no difference in them.
3. Giving an Asan in the mind will be one of the best things a human could do, but physical respect has its own place.
 
@Ragmaala - Bhagat Singh jee is right.
 
Bhul chuk maaf
 
 

Lol u sure r crazy abt aliens 
I haven't even seen earth beautiful scenery so aliens are outta place 
God sure is  creative XD

yea, there's a dude talking about how he, Obama and many other kids went to moon with the help of jump room in their childhood and there is a life over there. Too much out there and we normal people know nothing about it.:(. I tried astral traveling, I was able to do Lucid dreaming but when my body went into sleep paralysis mode, I got excited or scared and it never happened. I don't think I am gonna try again, I almost drove myself insane by going crazy after it. Not again.

If u can lift your Surat somehow above  you can master astral plane travel 
Then u can see many aliens xP even super saiyans LOL
Many people have claimed to see planets (one person told that there was humanoid and robots building stuff behind moon)
(Going too far isn't recommended in astral travel)
according to Sant Isher Singh g rara sahib 
First concentrate dhyaan behind eyes and nose mokh dwaar will open (I always thought mokh dwaar is trikuti but a great disciple clarified me)
After that 
Astral plane 
Trikuti ( between eyebrows)
Dasam dwaar 
Sunn

Bring your dhyan into it :)

Indeed.
We don't have any context to this photo. We have no idea what is going on here, behind the scenes.

Think of it this way.....if the 10 Guru Sahibaan were standing in front of you, would you ask them to all sit on one seat?

charan kamal is when you experience the blossoming of guru's charan. It is an experience that occurs when one first begins to actually samao in the anhad naad. The naad is the lowest end of anhad that reaches us first and is also termed the guru's feet. These feet we have to grab before guru accepts and lets us climb up to embrace him.
That's just the basic description that I can give but anyone who has experienced it will give their own understandings in detail. In the very special image above, there is great association with the experience of guru's charan and the guru himself. 
 

I used to, now focus is less on this area but I think I am getting back. I don't know there is something about aliens and entities which makes me feel alive lol

Omg this post is 13 years old XD 
Warning :- sis, you are watching too much Alien shows lol lol lol

Once there was time when a sadhu visited Satguru Siri Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj.
 he appeared suddenly in Darbar of almighty and bowed before him and presented him with the feathers of a "Humayu" bird 
Guru g said that there was no need of present since Darshan of saint already are very pleasing
Sadhu said that these are rare feathers and he wanted to present them to Guru g 
Then conversation goes on
After that sadhu disappeared 
Sikhs were amazed of miracle 
Sikhs asked Guru g who was he . how did he appear and disappear 
Guru ji told Sikhs that he is Brahma's son Nard 
 
After that incident Guru g took some Gursikhs and told them to stand at four direction  and tell abt arrows when it comes back on ground
 Guru Ji tied each feather to five arrows, strung them on a bow and shot them in all four directions and one up into the heavens. He asked his Gursikhs to go and look for the arrows he had fired.
Gursikhs stood for hours and so on
They looked hard but couldn't find them and so returned empty-handed to their Guru.
Guru g asked Sikhs abt arrows and they all replied that arrow didn't come back 
Guru ji smiled 
And then explained to the Gursikhs that he had been presented with the feathers of the Humuyu bird by Narad Muni Ji, and this bird of the sky had power in all its body parts. Guru Ji explained whatever was attached to the parts of that bird, the bird was able to take away to its own haven. Guru Ji was describing that just as the Humayu's feather had taken the arrows to the bird's sanctury, Gurbani and shabad  also worked like those feathers except they could take people to the sanctuary of God.
Just like arrow attached to feathers reached sanctuary of bird
Shabad also comes from Sachkhand 
Those Gursikhs who attach their munn (mind) with Shabad 
Shabad will bring them back into Sachkhand
 
(Well guys sakhi ends here bhul chuk maaf other websites had wrong story so I had to edit all)
 
Shabad is really precious jewel brought by Guru Nanak ji for us  from Sach khand
Attach your Surat into shabad and climb the ladders to reach sanctuary of Parbrahm 
Anahad shabad works same since Anahad shabad comes from dasam duar
Climb ladder with your Surat with sahej 
 
P.s - you can also copy paste to benefit other Gursikhs :p

I enjoyed that, inspirational on so many levels, thank you for uploading. 
Like in Gurbani 'God is within the body, don't go outside looking for Him'

hmm Interesting..I am not sure on this one.
My question to a Brahmgyani would be, if there are 10 saroops of Guru Sahib present should we treat is as One Saroop or do we treat it as 10 different bodies.

Thanks to the members on this form, gyan from Guru Granth Sahib, few other Gurmukhs, reading Sri Guru Nanak Chamatkar book by Bhai Sahib Bhai Vir Singh Ji.
I have also come to realise the Gurmantra/GurShabad should be the most important.

As Lucky said "sounds start to get captivating and magnetic, and they begin to pull you in deeper"


This is also mentioned on another site.
"it is easy for the mind to get over-involved - almost OCD - in listening to inner sounds and trying to determine which is better or "right". In the process, the mind becomes like a dog incessantly chasing its tail. Instead, Charan Singh tells us to simply keep repeating and focusing on Simran. The more your attention is wholly and solely focused upon Simran, the more it will be immersed in the Sound Current - and, in the process, the subordinate sounds will fade into the background and the real, Eternal Sound will emerge into your focus, lift you up above body-consciousness and guide you within"

As it says in Guru Granth Sahib chant the Gurmantra, day and night while standing, sitting, sleeping, eating, walking, working, etc.

Gurmukh said if we can not make our mind sit without taking thoughts for 3 hours then it will be very heard to merge into naam. Therefore, must keep doing simran to make mind sit.

If we take a thought to transition from Gurmantra to Naam then we take a thought which will put us back into Maya, Therefore, make mind so still that when Naam comes it automatically pulls you within without you taking a thought.

Also to add, Gurpreet Shimla Wale in his kirtan/katha mentioned that we are to keep chanting the Gurmantra because it will eventually go into rom rom (heartbeat and cells).

I think that once Gurmantra goes into heartbeat, then one is able to listen to the Naad. It says in Guru Granth Sahib Ji "the Sound-current of the Naad vibrates in each and every heart".

If I made any mistakes, forgive me, I too am still learning on this path.
Man tan antari Hari Hari Mant. Nanak bhagtan kai ghar sadaa anand: The Mantra of God's Name, Har, Har, is deep Within my mind and body. O Nanak, eternal bliss fills the home of God's devotees (sggs 802). Raam Naam Mant hirdai daivai Nanak milan subhaaye: The Mantra of the Raam Naam is enshrined Within the heart, O Nanak, and we merge with Him so easily (sggs 444).

The problem is understanding what it is about......You see, I used to totally disregard it, but as I'm learning and finding my own self even more,, I now have a better understanding.      There is destiny which is written on our foreheads as gurbani tells us.. Gurbani also tells us that we have come witj past lekhas of karams that have kept us bound to lak charasi. In order to get out of the charasi cycle, we DO have the opportunity to make efforts and start over-writing our own new karams... Astrology can be accurate prediction ONLY at a given time for any person depending on seeds sown and gurmat followed.  ...

Ang 948 Guru Amar Das Ji:

How can this mind be conquered? How can it be killed?
ki-o kar ih man maaree-ai ki-o kar mirtak ho-ay.

If one does not accept the Word of the Shabad, egotism does not depart.
kahi-aa sabad na maan-ee ha-umai chhadai na ko-ay.

By Guru`s Grace, egotism is eradicated, and then, one is Jivan Mukta - liberated while yet alive.
gur parsaadee ha-umai chhutai jeevan mukat so ho-ay.

O Nanak, one whom the Lord forgives is united with Him, and then no obstacles block his way.
naanak jis no bakhsay tis milai tis bighan na laagai ko-ay.

Everyone can say that they are dead while yet alive; how can they be liberated while yet alive?
jeevat marnaa sabh ko kahai jeevan mukat ki-o ho-ay.

If someone restrains himself through the Fear of God, and takes the medicine of the Love of God,
bhai kaa sanjam jay karay daaroo bhaa-o laa-ay-ay.

night and day, he sings the Glorious Praises of the Lord. In celestial peace and poise, he crosses over the poisonous, terrifying world-ocean, through the Naam, the Name of the Lord.
an-din gun gaavai sukh sehjay bikh bhavjal naam taray-ay.

O Nanak, the Gurmukh finds the Lord; he is blessed with His Glance of Grace.
naanak gurmukh paa-ee-ai jaa ka-o nadar karay-i.

Ang 953 Guru Nanak Dev Ji :

He alone is an Udasi, a shaven-headed renunciate, who embraces renunciation.
so udaasee je paalay udaas.

He sees the Immaculate Lord dwelling in both the upper and lower regions.
araDh uraDh karay niranjan vaas.

He balances the sun and the moon energies.
chand sooraj kee paa-ay gandh.

In the Tenth Gate, the sky of the mind, he erects his pillar.
gagan mandal meh ropai thamm.

Night and day, he remains in deep inner meditation.
ahinis antar rahai Dhi-aan.

Throughout existence and non-existence, there is only the Name of the One Lord.
aasat naasat ayko naa-o.

What is that Word, which holds the heart in its place?
ka-un so akhar jit rahai hi-aa-o.

When you look alike (balance) upon sunshine and shade,
Dhoop chhaav jay sam kar sahai.

says Nanak, then the Guru will speak to you.
taa naanak aakhai gur ko kahai.

That alone is said to be the Lord`s temple, where the Lord is known.
har mandar so-ee aakhee-ai jithahu har jaataa.

In the human body, the Guru`s Word is found, when one understands that the Lord, the Supreme Soul, is in all.
maanas dayh gur bachnee paa-i-aa sabh aatam raam pachhaataa.

Don`t look for Him outside your self. The Creator, the Architect of Destiny, is within the home of your own heart.
baahar mool na khojee-ai ghar maahi biDhaataa.

The self-willed manmukh does not appreciate the value of the Lord`s temple; they waste away and lose their lives.
manmukh har mandar kee saar na jaannee tinee janam gavaataa.

The One Lord is pervading in all; through the Word of the Guru`s Shabad, He can be found.
sabh meh ik varatdaa gur sabdee paa-i-aa jaa-ee.

Ang 954 Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji

He alone is victorious, who believes in the Lord`s Name.
mannay naa-o so-ee jin jaa-ay.

No other action is of any account.
a-uree karam na laykhai laa-ay.


WaheGuru WaheGuru WaheGuru WaheGuru WaheGuru

Good points.
There is no denying that the whole alignment of stars, planets ..constellations etc... can affect us, and in return WE can also affect it.
Gurbani tells us that Gobind-master of the whole universe is Akal Purakh himself..
A single action of ours can have an affect on some object or entity in some galaxy, some thousands of light years away.
To deny the science of astrology is ignorance.
Let's just take palm reading....and the left hand is said to show what the person is born with and what is destined,..whereas the right hand shows what the person has become in relation to the seeds they have sown, new karams, deeds...etc... However, even though there is this pre-destiny written on the level of awareness of when they were born,, they can without doubt 'raise their awareness' with naam kamayee and thus constantly be changing their destiny as from what was initially written.
This is how gurbani tells us, a gurmukh wipes his own lekh and karams and thus Gobind will keep updating them along with the constant order of the universe.
Personally, I have witnessed and seen my own palm lines change in short time spans,
Gurbani doesn't say that astrology is fake or anything,  but it is all calculated with precision within principles of Cause & Effect. However,, the only astrologer that can know it all and be up to date with all the changes is Akal Purakh,..antarjami ...Gobind himself.
 
So, the point is that getting an astrology reading will give you some idea of what may possibly happen according to your current level of awareness. ..But if you raise that awareness with naam kamayee, then you can also change/wipe any negatives that may have been destined initially.
Gurmat tells us that we don't walk on to the stepping stones placed before us according to astrology, but we walk in hukam whilst gathering naam dhan and let Akal Purakh keep placing the newer stepping stones in front of us. We can get an astrological reading or some idea of where we are at and what may happen......... but to sit back and just take that for granted would be ignorance. ..instead we should work on raising consciousness so that changes can occur for future events to unfold with less universal negatives.
 
 
 
 
 
 

people turn to astrologers, pandits and clairvoyants  when they have no one else to turn to.
A Sikh always turns to guruji and akal purakh.
If god's superior temple the hari-mandar is within you,..then why go looking outside for answers?
Ardas, hukamnaama and his kirpa is what you should count on....and kirpa doesn't come like no lottery or pure chance, as some wrongly claim-where only some get it and others don't.......you have to 'cultivate' and sow seeds of naam kamayee in order to be kirpa's candidate.
 

Guru Nanak Patshah says in Bani:
ਗਣਤ ਗਣੀਐ ਸਹਸਾ ਦੁਖੁ ਜੀਐ ॥
ਗੁਰ ਕੀ ਸਰਣਿ ਪਵੈ ਸੁਖੁ ਥੀਐ
Astrological calculations about one's future create suspense or sorrow in one's heart;
But by seeking the Guru's refuge, one always remains in peace and comfort.

The Gnosis of Kali Yuga

How God Answers our Prayers?
                                                                              (An Amazing Story)

Dr.Stephen, a well-known doctor, was once on his way to an important medical conference in another city where-in he was going to be granted an award for medical research he had recently done.

He was very excited to attend the conference and was desperate to reach as soon as possible. He had worked long and hard on his research and felt his efforts deserved the award he was about to obtain.

However, two hours after the plane took off, the pilot announced that there was a problem with the plane and that they were going to make an emergency landing at the nearest airport. Afraid that he wouldn't make it in time for the conference, Dr. Stephen immediately went to the help desk as soon as the plane landed and explained to the woman at the desk that he was expected to be at a very important conference and that he needed to know the immediate next flight to his destination.She told him that there was nothing she could do to help him as there wouldn't be another flight to his destination for another ten hours; but suggested he rent a car and drive down to the city as it was only four hours away.

Having no other choice, he agreed to the idea despite his hatred for driving long distances.
Dr. Stephen rented a car and started his journey. However, soon after he left, the weather suddenly changed and a heavy storm began. The pouring rain made it very difficult for him to see and he missed a turn he was supposed to take.

After two hours of driving, he was convinced he was lost. Driving in the heavy rain on a deserted road, feeling hungry and tired, he frantically began to look for any sign of civilization. After some time, he finally came across a small tattered house. Desperate, he got out of the car and knocked on the door. An old woman opened the door for him. He explained his situation and asked if he could use her telephone. She told him that she didn't have a phone or electricity but that he was welcome to come in for some food and something warm to drink as he had completely lost his way and that it would take him some time to get back on the right road.

Hungry, wet and exhausted, the doctor accepted her kind offer and walked in. The woman told him to help himself to some food and hot tea on the table and then excused herself to finish her prayers. Sitting on the table sipping his tea, the doctor watched the woman in the dim light of candles as she prayed next to what appeared to be a small baby crib.

Every time she finished a prayer, she would start another one. Feeling that the woman might be in need of help, the doctor seized the opportunity to speak as soon as she finished her prayers and told her that he hoped god would answer her prayers. He then said that he noticed that she had been making a lot of prayers and asked if there was something she needed that he could get for her or help her with. The woman smiled and said that god had answered all her prayers except one. She said she didn't know why god hadn't answered this specific prayer yet but perhaps it was because of her weak faith.

The doctor asked if she didn't mind telling him what she needed. Nodding her head in approval, she said that the child in the crib was her grandson. She said that the child had a very rare type of cancer and that all the doctors she had seen were unable to treat him. She also said that she had been told that there was a doctor who specialized in the type of cancer her grandson had, but there was no way for her to get to this doctor as he lived very far from her; so she has been spending her days and nights praying to god to help her find a way to get to Dr. Stephen - the doctor who could treat her grandson.

Upon hearing her words, tears began to flow down the doctor's cheeks and He said: god is great, there was malfunction in the plane, a thunderstorm hit, and I lost my way; and all of this happened because God did not just answer your prayer by helping you find a way to get to Dr. Stephen, but He brought Dr. Stephen to your house.
I am Dr. Stephen.
Tears streaming down her cheeks,

Three important steps:
1)Ask
2)Believe
3)Receive
