For Those Familiar With Sharda Pooran Granthetc.

[Silence]

Gurfateh

Just wanted to ask anyone who is familiar with sharda pooran granth or any of the similar granths if there is any advice in them about what bani to do if stuck in bharam and are unsure what to do spiritually (i.e. must make some very important spiritual decisions) and whether unsure if what you are doing/have done is wrong, what you do need to do etc. I would myself but I'll be honest I don't quite get how you are meant to navigate through them to find what you want. So I'd appreciate it if anyone could tell me or give the page number.

I would really appreciate it.

First, what kind of bharam it is? Does it relate to different points of view of Sampradas or religions?

Or are you talking about the bharam which is driving this mortal world?

He is the one put us in bharam. He is the one who will break it. You can do paath of following shabad. He listens to devotees.

[Xylitol]

you can take hukumnama with concentrated mind to answer your questions.

Thanks alot!!!! Really I cannot say thank you enough, the bharam is about my own spirituality and mistakes. Can I please ask does the shabad have to be read out loud and does it all have to be in one go?

and xylitol ji, i have sort of tried hukamnama about sort of related things, but I think I need to do some of this jaap too (my own sharda is lacking)
