Waheguru ji I was thinking of doing Gobinde jaap as well as Naam Simran as I have a lot of worldly issues such as not finding work . Is it best to do open amounts or fixed amount in 40 days ? I tried brahm kavach 32 a day for a 40 days but it is difficult to keep it in the mind. Gobinde mantra seems to have a flow which resonates with me.

I would love to hear any experiences and advise .thank you

There are specific Jaaps, which can be done to find a job. Please have a look below.

IMHO, fixed amount will be better. If you keep a goal in your mind, it will force you to do the Jaap on a daily basis. Try to sit in the same spot, facing the same direction, when doing the Jaap. Do the Jaap, during the same time period, daily for the entire 40 days.

Another tip which Daas learned from Katha.

Please stick to one Gurbani Jaap/Mantar. Do not switch from one Jaap to another Jaap. Most likely, for an ordinary person, it will usually take Sava Lakh (125,000) repetitions (with love, devotion, concentration, etc) of a Jaap or even more, before you start feeling/realizing the power of that Jaap.

 

Bhul chuk maaf

Thank you waheguru ji

I didn’t end up starting as I joined an online sangat where I asked a gurmuk (GPMKC YOUTUBE ) about doing a specific jaap and he said it’s probably kaal giving you problems and worries so do as much Gurmantar as possible. He said kaal give 3 types of issues

1)sickness of yourself or family member(my daughter)

2) money problems (I lost my job and haven’t been able to find another for 3 years)

3) arguments in family or environment

then finally try to get you stuck in colours and ridhi sidhi 

I’m just trying to do gurmantar now with thoughts and trying not to worry.

@paapiman I am doing WAHEGURU naam simran since last year, gradually added four nitnem banis to my daily routine by WAHEGURU kirpa. Now I wanted to do Gayatri Mantra for 40 days as having one issue which needed more Baani/Simran to cancel out my bad karmas. 

Would it be fine to do two mantras daily? 

My morning nitnem and naam simran varies from 45 minutes on working days to 2.5 hours on off days, same place and sunrise direction.

How much are you planning to do on a daily basis?

I am willing to do one hour of Gayatri mantra and two hours of NAAM SIMRAN daily (1hr am and 1hr pm). Currently reduced my working hours, so trying to focus on spiritual development.

If you can jump straight in for one hour, that's good.

 

I found I had to build up over time. Increasing periodically.

I have done 15 mins yesterday and today, tomorrow aiming for more. 

You are right in saying building up over time. Feeling little mentally tired, suffering from PTSD especially flashbacks symptom.

Yeah, I think build it up slowly or it can backfire. 

Keep to 15 minutes until it gets stable. You'll intuitively know when to increase it. I increase it by 5 minutes per change. Don't be in any rush. Bani even says, just one moment with correct focus is life changing. It's not about quantity, but quality in my opinion.   

Do 15 minutes for a few weeks and see how you get on. In the early stages, all manner of deep seated stuff from your karams and subconscious may come flying out. Let that settle down a bit.

Thanks for your kind advice, would surely follow and update after a month.

Waheguru sent this video for me, appeared from nowhere in the suggested list. 

Worth listening, how a girl developed physical and mental issues by not doing mantra jaap with saihaj.  Saihaj is very important, we often lost in number count or rush to finish on time.

Update since started Gayatri Mantra earlier this summer

*NAAM SIMRAN chanting has gone really good. 

*Found Sachi sadh sangat, mainly focusing on NAAM SIMRAN. 

*I have never felt lighter and better

* Previously I wanted to have friends but now I want to connect with WAHEGURU

 I am reaping the rewards and carry on doing my nitnem prayers, GAYATRI MANTRA and NAAM SIMRAN.

WAHEGURU JI KA KHALSA WAHEGURU JI KI FATEH!

I just read the thread and got interested. I have been doing the gobinde Mukunde Jaap for sometime it is very beautiful. I do it for an hour every morning and I also do gurmantar jaap. However the gobinde mukunde really works for me it draws me in. 
It is only after doing naam Jaap one realises what a gift the gurus have given us. I am not Gursikh as in I have not taken Amrit but this is making me think of doing it and of growing my hair. I am thinking on it.

I am going through a financial downfall at this time and I can’t even express this feeling to anyone I know. As i read everyone’s post I thought maybe someone would be able to help to answer my question. 
Actually at this time all my hopes are on Gurbani. And only he knows and i also don’t skip my nitnem. 
If someone can tell me the shabad which I can practice to overcome this situation that would be very helpful and how to take proper benefit of Amrit vela as I am totally stressed at this point. 
 

I don’t know how to express my thoughts, I just did my best!

Suffering is the medicine and pleasure the disease. 

Cut back wherever you can, work more, look for better work. Help others lower than you. 

Stay in Naam and remember freedom isn't being a wealthy ego but a servent of the Timeless 1.

Sorry to hear about your situation bro. Please stay strong.

Try to seek help from a financial advisor or some other professional (who you think might be able to help you with your situation). 

You may try doing at least Sava Lakh (125,000) Jaap of the Gurbani verses mentioned below.

From Sri Mukat Marg Granth:

Please take Khande da Amrit asap. Please do not wait in this critical matter as it seems that you are already feeling a bit of Naam Ras.

Also, focus more on the Jaap with which you connect more and the one which gives you more Anand (Spiritual Joy) after recitation.

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.. 

veer ji

What country?

Can you doordash or GrubHub while you look? 

Are you limiting yourself by only applying in one industry?
