And this is another reason why the Abhyas of Banis like Sri Jaap Sahib, Chaupai Sahib, Shastarnaam Mala,  Bhagauti Ustotar, Chandi Charitar Ustat, Brahm Kavach is done by Gursikhs.
In Bhagauti Ustotar, Maharaj Says that Rudra-Kali will bow down to that person who does Jaap of this Bani in morning.
Dasam Bani is a must to save us from Aadhi Viaadhi & Upaadhi .

All you have to do is mention the word 'Jew' and 99% of Muslims anywhere in the world will start to froth at the mouth and go pagal. If a nikki quom like the Jews were as clever as sullay and other neo-nazi Anglo phudhus make out, we should bow down to them as a higher species. lol

That is these bewakoofs for you. No sense of responsibility, just blame EVERY problem on the Jahudhi boogey men. When I was a teacher it was shocking to see sullay students who otherwise seemed quite balanced go into angry fits about Jews. I shouldn't have been surprised because 20 years earlier the Pak boys I was friends with at school were doing something similar.

@Ragmaala Yeh in that case put your foot down and if things do go abit pear shaped just pm me and there's small practical things that will help control/harness the shakti.. these are things suggested to me by baba joginder singh (raqba) ..saying that it may just be a case of karm accelerating..
Im defo with you on the fast rhythm and flow when doing loud jaap but  i would also do dhyaan recting this manter and it would start fast but then goes really slow..i loved it but now spending time with mool manter which for me seems a bit of a chore sometimes esp with jaap....i actually avoided this thread but now im feeling to go back to the gayatri manter lol..
i genuinely wish you luck with this jaap and hope you get what you desire...
Im not sure at all what needs to be done or if it has specific benefits ie get a job/wife/house etc but its a shakti manter.. I did it as i was getting 'signs' to do this and i did sava lakh in 40 days and started at 3am and kept satogun diet on top of my nitnem (not 5 bani nitnem just my personal one) but i was not working then so had a lot of time on my hands... but after initial jaap i carried on with this manter which i really enjoyed, english language is crap, i say enjoyed but its was more anand. being detached but involved..its weird and hard to explain
i just asked google baba about this manter and got this from yogi bhajan....i agree with the part where you start seeing things before they happen but at same time you do not want to be stuck at this, its like seeing a nice blossom tree and moving on then to stand there admiring it..saying that i feel this happens with all manters, a good friend of mine cannot read gurbani just does dyaan on mool manter and recites this all day and he mentioned such things aswell...
The Eight Facets of God 
Excerpts from a lecture on 9/11/76
This is a sound which anybody and everybody can pick up. These are eight facets of God, eight sides of God: 
Gobinday, Mukanday, Udaaray, Apaaray, Hariang, Kariang, Nirnaamay, Akaamay
Pick up the notes. The brain has the capacity to automatically pick it up. These words existed before any language existed. Just pick up the rhythm and that's all you have to learn. These are called rhythm mantras. Rhythm mantras are meant to pick you up into the ether. This is one mantra in the world which balances the ether and the Earth.
You can sing it anyway. You can sing it driving, sitting, eating, sleeping; it doesn't matter. Whenever you utter it, all facets of God will be right in you. Now, when you will do this, after a while you will start seeing lots of things. You will say something and it will happen; don't worry. Just keep on doing it.
Life is a living experience between the finite and Infinity.
“The Guru Gaitri Mantra of Guru Gobind Singh has the power of the four Vedas, six Puranas and thirty-six Simritis. All these are equal to reciting the Guru Gaitri just once. Traditionally, only a person who has been initiated by a guru is entitled to chant a gaitri. Whosoever shall chant it, the Primal Power, the Adi Shakti, will guard that being.
This mantra is a ‘Shakti’ mantra. Shakti gives one the positive power of God. If you chant this mantra, there shall be no enemy, including one’s own ego, which can overpower you. It is a mantra of deathlessness.” –Yogi Bhajan (7/9/75)

When i said 'what the point' i didn't mean to come across as its irrelevant but  sometimes when you talk about direct experiences its really a case of showing off ... you may or may not get mystical experiences form this jaap... like i said it helped in my worldy affairs..it felt like knots being untied, you ever been in a position when a thin thread had a knot init and you try so hard to untie it and get nowhere then someone comes a long and unties it with relative ease, thats how i feel when reflecting on this jaap..i still do this jaap now and again.
I actually felt guilty when doing these jaaps for material gain but when i looked at spiritual people here in uk, most if not all had financial security/stability,something i've never had, and i wondered would they be so spiritual and god orientated if that worldy security was swept away from under their feet..hhmm not sure bro but also contemplating on others, maharaj has loooked after them from the start for them to enjoy his fruits.. its probably best if you start the jaap and if you feel ok about it, share it on here (something i wouldn't do, but each to their own).. be warned you will get a lot of rukaavat especially if you do ardas to complete x amout of jaap in x amount of days for a specific gain/phall..
for jaap itself, when i first started i recited with mouth (loud) over time it became mental to the point i would be doing jaap in head and working and/or doing daily activities at same time...even now sometimes that manter automatically starts in my mind and i go with it and enjoy it.. With jaap, look at your situation and be practical.. its like food, its best eaten when sitting down and in a relaxed mode eating slowly, basically enjoying the food/taste, but if your in a rush you tend to eat fast and sometimes even stand and eat...point being in both scenarios you cater for hunger and are satisfied at the end..things i would suggest is if you got time, do x amount a day sitting down maybe with dhoop/jot and water which you sprinkle around room and drink rest of it.
Have you done this jaap or started it?? don't just do it for the sake of it as you may end up being disappointed, if you have a strong natural desire and 'signs' are saying do it, then put your foot down and get on with it.. 

Even if Dhandrianwale soiled his clothes due to fear, Ajnala jee should not have talked about it in public. A Sikh is suppose to hide other people's faults/mistakes/weaknesses, not expose them to others (unless needed for a greater good).
Another shameful episode.

Sant mahapurshs humility is so natural and simple it leaves you awestruck. 
There was an incident that happened in wolverhampton with sant baba isher singh ji..Baba ji was going to attend a divan at nanksar gurdwara and one individual took it upon himself to print posters saying to not attend the divan as sant baba isher singh is a pakand etc.. While a sevak was driving Baba ji they saw the individual pasting the posters on the wall.. Baba ji asked the sevak to stop driving, baba ji came out went to the individual and said 'please let me help you' the individual was shocked and said these posters are about you.. Baba ji smiles and replies 'meleh kapre ninda toye'...
I cannot validate the authenticity of this story as i heard it in a discussion amongst sangat but two things we can learn from this is the humility of elevated souls and that even if one slanders you, let them as they are wiping off your sins.:)

Hopefully, Gyani Inderjit Singh jee Raqbewale do katha (akhree and antriv arths) of Sri Charitropakhian Sahib jee. He is one of the best scholars of the Panth.

agreed. Truth is very few people have Guru Saheb as a Living Guru in their experience. 
Just Imagine, if a Singh could talk like that in the presence of Guru Gobind Singh Ji maharaj darbar?
And another reality is that all the realized mahapurush that we know of never took any positions of jathedari etc.
Once Akalis came to influence Baba Nand SIngh Ji to get him into his party. He turned them away.
I guess its a working reality that once you are involved in a religio-political scene things are going to get dirty...but it should not be done in Maharajs Hazoori.  You can have a separate press conference & choose words wisely.
Now just imagine, if a secret agency kills either dhumma, panthpreet or dhunda... they can get both ranjit singh & amrik singh into trouble , and clear the playing field of main players.
One has to be very wise with choosing words.

Nothing is more powerful than your paat in helping you in this situation. 

I read that rahitnama in India on a wall in the mountains . It said something like:
The Sikhs who refer to Amrit as water and the Sikhs who ask another Sikh about his caste,- they will all go to hell.
 
 
 

Here it is.
Amrit ko paani kahe ,Sikh ki poochhahe jaat.
Kahe GOBIND SINGH Nand Lal ji ,so sikh jampur jaat."
 
There is also this which I think is from the Bhai Desa Singh Rahitnama
Jo Sikha Ko Puche Jaat Soh Sikh Nahi Mero Aad Jugaad (Those who ask a sikh's caste, they are not my sikh, they never were, and they never will be)

Nature

Baba Mohinder Partap Singh ji may fit the bill. He is a mastana mahapursh residing at Guru Nanak Ashram in Patiala. I think few people know about him outside of his area. 

My own religion is of no consequence  as I'm not here to preach or convert anyone. I'm here to learn and understand different religions. I'm asking questions about Sikhism to Sikhs, rather than making up my own conclusions.
Islam is the fastest growing religion is Europe as mentioned by Amardeep. Please refer to his posts as they seem better thought out  than yours.
 
I've put some videos of other religious chanting Gods name:
Hindu / jainism / Bhuddism 
 
Buddhist:
 
Christian:
Being the largest religion in the world, Christians have the most diverse forms of chanting/saying Jesus's name: I won't paste all the different forms; here is just one:
 
Muslim
Like Christianity , Islam being such a large religion has so many different forms of "Zikr" remembrance of God, I'll post one here :
 
 
 
Judaism
 
Hare Krishna / Hinduism 
 
I hope this helps.
