Samarbir Singh Posted June 16, 2021 Report Share Posted June 16, 2021 WJKK WJKF Hello gurmuko, I need help. I have no motivation to progress in my spiritual path. I can’t do simran, I just can’t go and sit down except for 30 mins. Even doing my nitnem in the morning is very hard almost impossible. And it’s effecting my everyday life style. I don’t want to go back to how I used to be, because it used to be so draining. No motivation and no chao. Sometimes I think maybe I pushed myself to hard even though I had just begun my journey. And it’s all crashing down. It’s making me very sad that even having this knowledge of knowing that Kaal is doing all this I just don’t how make this stop and feel at peace again.

Bhul Chuk Maaf Hello brother, as long as we are in the mayavee planes, these types of phases of ups and downs, and turbulences will be happening time after time. But as passengers / disciples of the pilot Guru Jee, we should be thankful that we are sitting in the airplane of our life commanded by Him, so we should tell our minds to keep quite and stop hopping and trying to trouble us, for in no way we are going to get affected with its tricks and dramas, so it should sit down and be in peace.... that would the better for it and our surtee. We should try to make the mind understand that, we do His bhakti to just please Him, without any conditions nor expectations, so no matter if we see apparent progress or not, for progress in sikhee is undoubted, sometimes we may perceive it or not, but definetely progress is there. So brother do not loose heart, stick faithfully to your spiritual practices, His daya meher, His kirpa, will definetely take you much farther and to higher heights, just do not get dismotivated, for you should fix in mind that He never leaves His lovers, bhagats.... He is much aware of whatever we are doing or going through. Just as the sun is always up there, it is only that sometimes, that the dark karmic clouds come into our way so we do not see the sun, but that does not mean the sun has not arised or gone somewhere, when the clouds move away in due time we will have the sunshine again. Stay blessed. SSA. 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bhul Chuk Maaf WJKK WJKF Veer ji you should do ardas or at least say the names of our Guru Sahib Ji before starting any simran or nitnem as it will help give you strength to do paath simran nitnem as nobody is as powerful as Waheguru so try to do ardas. Rest just try to listen to as much katha,kirtan etc as you can. As dass suffers from migraines its not nice to have so i can imagine reading your posts and you must be feeling veer ji. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bhul Chuk Maaf wjkk wjkf Here are some tips brother: Please try to do a Gurbani Mantar Sidhi, as Daas told you before. Please listen to Katha as much as you can (Larivaar Katha, Sri Sooraj Prakash Granth Katha, other Kathas, etc). Please listen to Kirtan as much as you can (choose the style which you like the most). Please try to get an Ardas done by a Gurmukh Mahapurakh. Please read spiritual books. If you want examples, please let us know. Please read other Sikhi related books, such as life stories of Sikh saints, etc. Please try to set some goals for a month or so.

Bhul Chuk Maaf wjkk wjkf Won't you be off in the summers? Then, you should be able to wake up at 2.00 am or so right? Try doing the maximum amount of Naam Simran at Amritvela. Amritvela is the best time for Naam Simran. Can't you try to sleep a little earlier? Even if you sleep at 9.30 pm, you should be able to wake up at 3.30 am. That's 6 hrs. of sleep. You can take another nap after Naam Simran. At first, it might be difficult for you to change your schedule, but your body will probably gradually get use to it.

Based on it, you should try to do the maximum amount of Naam Simran during that time period. Bhul chuk maaf 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
