    The Truth about Hemkunt

    in Meditation | Simran | Bhakti | Jap

    Posted

    Will post this as many people are familiar with the suleman pret adhaar by sant isher singh ji maharaj.   Suleman did not enter the womb of his place of birth until the day before his physical birth, many people do not know. He would enter and leave the boy possessed and talk to sangat, that's where all the recordings are from.

     

     Also Sant Maharaj ji had given bachan to the family on the date of birth for Suleman, and that was 10 and half months from date of pregnancy.  The doctors want to do a c section, however  the family had faith in their bachans and the child (suleman) was born as per their bachan.

  3. Meaning of the name NANAK

    in Sikhi | Questions and Answers

    Posted

    @Sat1176

    Below is a translation of by puran mahapurakh Sant Gurbachan Singh ji Bhindrawale sent to me by a Singh.

     

     

    Here is pure essence absolute meaning of nanak.

    Absolute meaning of 'Nanak' in japji sahib teeka by sant gyani gurbachan singh khalsa bhindranwale pdf page- 186                                                                

    Here are translations, note its not exact word by word but i have tried very best to provide essence meaning, please forgive me if there any mistakes mere mortals can only try so much:

    Nanak Padh daie Arth (Meaning of Nanak term)

    1. Nanak is free from counting/numbers/types. Nanak is free from duality, that which is non dual is Nanak

     

      Jot roop har aap Guru nanak kahaieo || 

     

    Vahiguru Jot roop which is awakened light/knowledge is Guru nanak

     

    2. Just like how everything in this world has two sides, two positions, two- duality but nanak(non duality) is opposite of ank (duality)

     

    3. Anek term deonates Dulta  0 always moving/changing not constant 

    Nanak is which is free from duality, is ek ras (constant/permanent), free from counting/numbers

     

    4. Na (means purakh - complete supreme being) An (free) AK (means dukh- sorrow) - complete supreme being which is sat(eternal) chit (pure consciousness/knowledge) anand (bliss) which is free from sarrow/sadness/misery that saroop(formless form) is real/absolute complete truth form, that formless form satguru nanak manifested itself to save bhagats (devotee).

     

    5. Na (Non) that which is all pervading in all. Alaf (which is ek ras - constant), non ( that which provides absolute nihal-hapiness to all) kaf (kanaet) that which gives complete contentment/grace to all is nanak

     

    This meaning came from bhai nand lal ji - Tosifo Sanah

     

    6. N (purak- complete being) An + ak - free from sadness/suffering. That (Ak) which is free from sadness/suffering (An) paremshvar is nanak.

     

    7. (Noun) that which gives good attributes, that Alaf (ala roop (noun) gives nauyemat/graceful/contentment is Nanak.

    Darbar Sahib - You mean Harmandar Sahib (Amritsar)?

    Anything else you can share bro, that would be great.

     

    Bhul chuk maaf

    Yes Harmandar Sahib.

    Not much really to share on an open forum.   I'd suggest to go meet him, his jeevan speaks for itself.  Also, many of kathas from various places are on youtube.   I'd suggest taking a look.

  10. The Ringing Sound (Anhad Shabad; Sound Current)

    in Meditation | Simran | Bhakti | Jap

    Sant isher singh rara sahibs bachan

    Firstly, focus the attention on physical saroop of Guruji and do Gurmantar abhiyaas. Simran is done with tongue and thought. This will purify the thoughts and concentration will improve and Anhad Shabad can be heard soon after. Then, leaving simran and dhyaan behind, the concentration has to be on abhiyaas of listening to the Anhad Shabad, the intensity of which will keep increasing and five different types of the same shabad will be heard, concentration will ride the waves of that shabad and keep rising towards Sachkhand. Crossing many other destinations full of lights and many other amazing scenes, it will finally enter the inaccessible world (ਅਗੰਮ ਲੋਕ) where it will forget its self and merge forever. Only thought-free and absolute Waheguru will remain. The soul will rise above the body and merge in the Creator and liberated state will be achieved.
    ਸੰਤ ਔਰ ਰਾਮ ਏਕ ਹੀ ਹੈੱ ।

    Waheguru I think this was possibly translated from Isher Amolak Lal (Sant Maharaj jis personal diary)    Here's another one, not sure if it's been posted here but the simran(technique) jugti by Sant Maharaj ji is more specfic.

    6. CONCENTRATION OF MIND

    Positive, selfless actions are devices for the purification of the mind. Then, an 

    interest to increase the concentration of mind develops within. This concentration 

    is achieved by devotion and worship and through Gurbani Paath, Kirtan and 

    Veechar. The Jaap of Mool Mantar also brings the mind in contemplation mode. 

    Then there is the path of Simran which is of two types - Jaap (ਜਾਪ) and Ajappa 

    (ਅਜੱਪਾ). 

    Bani is of four types :

    1. Baikhari (ਬੈਖਰੀ)

    2. Madhma (ਮੱਧਮਾ)

    3. Pasanti (ਪਸੰਤੀ)

    4. Parra (ਪਰਾ)

    Then there is the Anhad Shabad.

    Baikhari Bani is when Waheguru name is recited with tongue.

    Madhma Bani is recited in the throat without the use of tongue.

    Parra Bani is when Waheguru Jaap is done in the navel.

    Rewards:

    A Baikhari is 1 unit reward.

    Madhma has 10 times the reward of Baikhari

    Parra has got 1000 times more reward than Baikhari

    Anhad Shabad happen in the forehead.

    Trikuti, the knot of the three qualities, is untied and then the Tenth Gate opens p, consciousness reaches its Sachkhand and attains eternal rest.

    Firstly, it is important to have infinite love and devotion in the physical Saroop of Guruji. Use this love and concentration to do Simran of GurMantar. Similarly, focus entire attention on the root of two eyes and the nose. With practice and devotion, a time will come when light will appear there and Anhad Shabad, the celestial sounds will be heard which will give immense happiness to the consciousness. With more Abhiyaas, longer periods of such concentration will be achieved and Avastha will keep rising towards upper levels. Crossing spiritual states like Sahansdal Kanwal (ਸਹੰਸਦਲ ਕੰਵਲ), Trikuti, Dasam Duar, Sunn, and Sachkhand, it will finally merge in the Indescribable, limitless Supreme Being. The welfare of human form lies in renouncing worthless desires and obtaining real knowledge instead. 

    The entire universe is Hari-roop but it is hard to admit it due to our ego and attachment. Because of this ego and attachment, the cycle of birth and death continues. We can receive love of God only when we hand over our mind to Guruji. 

    Lord's love is emancipator and destroyer of all negativity. Just like liking for someone does not develop without looking at their qualities and form, similarly love for Waheguru Ji does not cultivate in the heart until we look and appreciate His infinite qualities and countless forms.

  11. Dhadrianwale and Dhumma jee Rift

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    I saw a post on social media that I thought was good at summing up the situation.  Please don't turn this into a Sant Jarnail Singh ji not shaheed/shaheed thread.  I'm just referring to the general dhumma vs dhadrian wale issue.

    Below

    This post is to clarify my pervious 2 posts regarding Dhumma/Dhadrianwala dispute.  The purpose of the "Dhumma Biggie/Tupac Dhadrianwala" post was to show how out of hand this whole controversy has gotten, or you can say at its roots it's an Akaali/Congress dispute. I am not taking sides with Dhumma or Dhadrianwala. Have never supported Dhumma after June 2, 2005 (when he declared Sant Jee Shaheed). And in the past 4 years Dhadrianwala has aligned him self with missionary's such a Dhunda and Panthpreet. His parchaar against, 84 lakh joon, dharm raaj, ghosts, doing 1000's of mool mantars are all against the beliefs of any of the mahapurkhs. As of right now I don't believe Dhumma ordered a hit on him. Bhai Amrik Singh Ajnala has said things million times worse then "bagard billa" to Dhumma and Dhumma hasn't done anything. This was done by out of hand goons supporters of Dhumma from what I see, I could be wrong. Dhadrianwala ran away from Sarbat Khalsa and the Bagraadi Morcha, don't have much faith in him either. An innocent singh became shaheed in the cross fair, which is very very sad. Guru Sahibs panth is always in Chardikala. These people have made mockery out of it. I don't think Sant Jee would stand with either one of these parchaariks. If Dhumma rose questions against Dhadrianwala's vichaar. Why has he yet to clarify those? Just says find videos of my saying Dasam Granth is not bani, not once has he said he believes in it or does parchaar of it. I believe he should clarify his stand, so the Sangat knows where he stands. And I hope he doesn't stand with Missionaries. At end of the day this is an Akaali Dal vs Congress battle. Dhunda, Panthpreet are Sanra's people and Dhadrianwala stand with them. On the other hand Dhumma and Badal are buddies. The elections are next year. The government is succeeding in dividing the panth. Media or either parchaarik never rose this much rola(noise) against the beadbi's of Guru Granth Sahib.

  12. Spiritual Benefits of Yoga

    As for Yoga, I can only talk about the kundalini yoga that I have been doing for a few years. ... Yes, It does definitely help, ..and if done properly, it will help clear the mind, heighten your inner and outer awareness, strengthen and help elongate your spine, strengthen your body,teach stamina and endurance......and best of all... it can help achieve unforgettable moments of transcendent joy and spiritual ecstasy! :)  .  There is nothing better for me than to have Yoga as an art of extending my spiritual prayer and devotion into physical discipline. 

     

    @Lucky

    Waheguru, I've had horrible posture pretty much my whole life.  Have a forward head tilt,  can't keep my spine perfectly straight for more then a 20-30 mins,  and that's with my forward head tilt.  I've been trying to work on it and do a few stretches, but fall back into the lifetime of bad habits.  

    I'm thinking of starting kundalini yoga , and am wondering how long generally do you think before I can expect results? Physically? Spirtually?  How much does the instructor make a difference? Not really sure how to go on about finding one in eastern cgy.  

    Also one thing that's holding me back is currently I am out of shape, not over weight but I would maybe out of breath if sprinted a short distance,  so not sure how physically taxing it is.

    I quit my job, here's the deal.

    Temp jobs are a double edged sword. On the one hand, you only have to put up with these people for a specified amount of time, but on the other hand, you have to put up with these people for a specified amount of time. Aye, there's the rub.

    And I'll go one step further and say that temp jobs in IT are the worst kinds of temp jobs. Oh, you can go on about data entry all you like, but have you ever put up with the same person asking how to "do" an attachment ten times a day?

    Now I graduated with honours in Computing Studies, I could build a server from scratch with little more than an Apache framework and a thimble full of Javascript. I don't tell you this because I'm proud, I tell you this because I'm murderously angry.

    For instance, I should have spent the last week working on a better solution for our company's internal security protocols, in regards to power outage scenarios. But in fact, found myself resetting passwords, and telling people that shutting of their monitor did not equal restarting their computers. The point is my job is very, very beneath me. And yes, I know that all our jobs are beneath us, and yes I know I'm a nerd, and yes I know I'm an angry nerd, but to quote the esteemed scholar, Mr Geoffrey Lebowski, this aggression will not stand.

    Now, it should be mentioned at this point that my boss is not a bad person. He's an old man, walks with a cane - looks like an older version of the posh british guy from The Great Escape. He also is very good at giving the appearance of being lovely, like your grandpa, or father christmas. The fact remains however, that the job stank.

    Sorry. I should be more direct. I work at an amusement park. A fairly big amusement park. You've heard of it. Well I worked there. And my job - which really twelve people should have been doing - was to set up, debug, maintain and oversee the park's security. A pretty important job, you might say? Something worthy a decent paycheck perhaps?

    Something worthy of realistic operating hours, perhaps? But no. Being a new park, the startup costs were simply to great to afford such luxuries as operating hours, fringe benefits or human loving decency. The cost of the garguantuan attractions alone precluded the idea of any of us mere staff drawing anything approaching a fair wage for a fair day's work.

    So, I got approached by a competitor. This is surprisingly common in my field of work. Industrial espionage is depressingly par for the course in the American amusement park industry, despite what anyone might tell you. I'm not saying this is secret agent poo poo, I'm saying that frequently what you know is worth more than what you do.

    Now I'd already signed a non-disclosure act and I'm sure a lot of armchair lawyer-goons are going to scream that what I did here was illegal or maybe even 'morally wrong', but try to understand I was being underpaid, overworked and hosed upon all for a company that was not only jeapordising my safety but, arguably, the safety of the park's patrons with cost-cutting, rationalisation and unnecessarily unsafe standard working practices. Idiots.


    So in this environment, try to understand that when a competitor makes contact offering me much needed rent money in exchange for some information - really in exchange for some experienced consultation, nothing more - I'm going to consider the proposition. In fact, a reasonable company wouldn't even see anything wrong with this. They own my work, not my future work, not my experience, certainly not any work that was directly born from my contributions to our IP.

    And yes, I took with me some of our new tech - some of the embryonic research that made our company unique. I appreciate this stuff has value. I'm not saying I wasn't actively seeking to make back some of the money these guys owed me. But the fact is that Six Flags would kill for the kind of tech we're working on, and if my boss isn't going to pay for the hours or even use the technology responsibly, I'm going to have to take it elsewhere. Free market, right?

    So that is exactly what I do. It was pretty easy given that the cite was to be visited by outside consultants a couple of days beforehand, and every one was so distracted enough with this circus that I could leave my desk without too much bother.

    But in order to get out of the park, the electric fences that kept in some of the living exhibits needed to be shut down. After that it would be a quick trot through the rain and a car drive to safety. I took the chance, took the embryos and in a whipped-cream can, fled them through the gates. What I didn't realise was the creatures were breeding of their own accord, and all because of the frog DNA. We thought we were gods. I was later killed by one of those spitting dinosaurs. You may have seen me in seinfeld.
