  1. Sahib mera Nit Nava Sada Sada Dataar ||

    in Gurbani | Gurmat | Spiritual Poetry and Discussions

    Posted

    This Gurbani mahavak pankiti - Sahib mera Nit Nava Sada Sada Dataar ||  has so much depth.

    The way i understood this pankiti is that one universal pure aware being (ikOngkar) / absolute truth is EVER FRESH-ALIVE AND NEW moment to moment assert itself moment to moment to moment- ever fresh and new , expresses itself into infinite ways and in infinite ever fresh and new epiphanies.

    Hence, why we cannot approach Vahiguru ji with conceptual knowledge, expereinces, out of memory, past or future but Now ETERNALLY PRESENT !!

    Sada Sada Datar

    Always always eternal giver.

     

    Your thoughts please?

  5. Havan (Fire Ritual) Maryada

    in Sikhi | Questions and Answers

    Posted

    Good discussion all around, all views are welcome here even polar opposite ones.

    Main crux here is Sri guru granth sahib ji is our Ishat Dev Guru not Agni. Objectification of Sri guru granth sahib ensues bhagti results in one of five types of mukti which is parvan in gurmat.

    What does objectification of fire ensues ? Not much except if you are really esoteric knows essence(tat) of fire and really into vedant

  6. Havan (Fire Ritual) Maryada

    To be honest, don't think normal mass are receptive towards esoteric fire symbolism. I would say only rare individuals have dhian birthi of sargun/nirgun in same breath/flow or moment. Lot of us are caught up or stuck in pointers rather whats pointer pointing towards.

    Due to maya, our senses are drawn towards objectification. Ultimately, since our dharam is gurmat advait marg - over objectification of sargun is not encouraged . I agree with bhai vir singh positions on over exaggeration worship of sargun rituals as many have fallen into.

    Havan (Fire Ritual) Maryada

    I remember talking to sant jagjit singh ji harkhowale about this. Whilst he never downplayed havan ritual itself -udasi and nirmale do with gurbani mantras invoke shaheed singhs. He did mentioned In our tradition, havan is practical instead of offering havan /fire to deities instead fire is used in langar to cook and gurbani is reciten.

    Now thats practical.

  22. Dhadrianwala Vs Great Sikhs

    in General Discussion

    Posted

    Whats new in this ongoing saga? I've asked sant jagjit singh ji harkhowale, what exactly happened to  dhandrianwale? why sudden U turn? Sant ji said in ramaz, vahiguroo ji de khel. With that being said, harkhowale sant did immense parchar against missionaries before and this time when he came to canada and uk when they especially start targetting amrit vela.

    IMHO, i think dhandrianwale gotten haywire totally when harnam singh made attempt to take him out. I think that was turning point. He should have said #@ck it , i am out - no more parchar , should have gotten into private life, have nice estate up up in mountains rather than going missionary.

    He aint gonna win, too many quebec racists. He is gonna mess up the liberals as well cause he is spliting the vote. I predict a conservative minority government.

    Im voting liberal though.

    agreed with you totally. I think to be honest, he should be aiming for official opposition  not party in power as it end up splitting votes. He should target conservatives equally as many desis are conservatives too, get them in swinging to centrist position atleast if not far far left than far right atleast.
