Paath nitnem bani thread

[Soulfinder]

Dass yesterday before going to sleep read the full paath of Sri Sidh Gosht by Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj. Luckly it was only 23mins long so it took less than a hour to do using the audio tracks. 

Reading the bani wasn't that hard as in comparison to other banis in Panj Granthi such as Bavan Akhree which is a lot more hard to read. 

So now with Waheguru Guru Sahib Ji's kirpa Drishti dass has managed to do 3 banis out of Panj Granthi and its a great feeling to have.

[Soulfinder]

@Shaheed4lifeHow are you veer ji? Yesterday dass with Waheguru Guru Sahib Ji's kirpa Drishti read dakhni onkar sahib with my nitnem and it was such a good experience feeling to have. 

Whilst reading the bani it was a bit hard in comparison to Sidh Gosht but both were the length and took dass the same time to read it using audio track of Bhai jarnail Singh Ji.

So now with Waheguru Guru Sahib Ji's kirpa Drishti dass has done 4 out of 5 banis in Panj Granthi Sahib meaning 80% has been done so far.

Veerji, I heard from a katha before that listening actually gives more phal. Sometimes when we read we may do it as a ritual, our mind may wonder and we may not be focusing on the bani, but when we listen to bani we must listen with full concentration to get every word. I will try to find the katha and send here ji

Bhul Chuk Maaf Ji

@Shaheed4lifeveer ji dass is very happy that today just completed 1318 pauris of Shastar Naam Mala the complete Bani with Waheguru Guru Sahib Ji's kirpa Drishti it took 2 weeks due to its length. The wording was hard but not as much compared to other banis like Zafarnama, Chandi Chirtar 1,2 etc

This might be helpful for you, gurbani is in roman character and is explained in english. The entire Guru Granth Sahib Ji has been completed like this which you can read on this website http://www.sadhsangat.com/category/banis/sukhmani/

 

Here is an example 

ਸਿਮਰਉ ਸਿਮਰਿ ਸਿਮਰਿ ਸੁਖੁ ਪਾਵਉ ॥ਕਲਿ ਕਲੇਸ ਤਨ ਮਾਹਿ ਮਿਟਾਵਉ ॥
Simra▫o simar simar sukẖ pāva▫o. Kal kales ṯan māhi mitāva▫o.

 

I (simrau) keep in mind/conform to – Naam/Divine virtues and commands, and (simar-i simar-i) conforming it – twice – in thought and deed – I do not commit vices and – (paavau) have (sukh-u) peace. And, (mittavau = erase) remove (kaleys) strife (kal-i) by conflicts present (maah-i) in (tan) the body/life.

 

ਸਿਮਰਉ ਜਾਸੁ ਬਿਸੁੰਭਰ ਏਕੈ ॥ਨਾਮੁ ਜਪਤ ਅਗਨਤ ਅਨੇਕੈ ॥
Simra▫o jās bisumbẖar ekai. Nām japaṯ agnaṯ anekai.

 

I (simrau) conform to (jaas-u) glory/virtues of (eykai) the One (bisumbhar = nurturer of universe) Sustainor Almighty.
(Aganat aneykai) countless people (japat) remember/obey (naam-u) Divine commands, i.e. the creatures exist by Naam/Divine commands/laws of nature.

 

ਬੇਦ ਪੁਰਾਨ ਸਿੰਮ੍ਰਿਤਿ ਸੁਧਾਖ੍ਯ੍ਯਰ ॥ਕੀਨੇ ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮ ਇਕ ਆਖ੍ਯ੍ਯਰ ॥
Beḏ purān simriṯ suḏẖākẖ▫yar. Kīne rām nām ik ākẖ▫yar.

 

 (Beyd) the Vedas, Puranas and Smritis, i.e. the scriptures are (sudhaakhyar = container of nectar) source of awareness of Naam. They have been (keeney = made) created to teach (ik aakhyar) the one Word, (naam) Divine virtues and commands.

 

ਕਿਨਕਾ ਏਕ ਜਿਸੁ ਜੀਅ ਬਸਾਵੈ ॥ਤਾ ਕੀ ਮਹਿਮਾ ਗਨੀ ਨ ਆਵੈ ॥
Kinkā ek jis jī▫a basāvai. Ŧā kī mahimā ganī na āvai.

 

One in whose mind the Creator (basaavai = puts) causes to abide (kinka eyk) one bit of the virtues i.e. one who remembers and imbibes even a bit of Divine virtues,
(Mahima) greatness (ta ki) of that person is (gani na aavai = cannot be counted) beyond measure.

ਕਾਂਖੀ ਏਕੈ ਦਰਸ ਤੁਹਾਰੋ ॥ਨਾਨਕ ਉਨ ਸੰਗਿ ਮੋਹਿ ਉਧਾਰੋ ॥੧॥
Kāʼnkẖī ekai ḏaras ṯuhāro. Nānak un sang mohi uḏẖāro. ||1||

 

O Creator, those who (kaankhi) long for (daras) vision of (tuhaaro) Yours (eykai = one) only, i.e. those who long to experience Your presence within their minds thinking of none else.
please place me (un sang-i) in their company to (udhaaro = lift) emancipate me from the vices of the world-play, says fifth Nanak. 1.

Parabẖ kai simran ṯirath isnānī. Parabẖ kai simran ḏargėh mānī.

 

 People bathe at holy places to purify themselves. One becomes (isnaani) bather at (teerath) holy places, i.e. purifies the inner-self (simran-i) by conformance to commands (kai) of (prabh) the Almighty.

One is (maani) accepted (dargah) Divine court/for union with God, (simran-i) by conformance to commands (kai) of (prabh) the Almighty.

 

ਪ੍ਰਭ ਕੈ ਸਿਮਰਨਿ ਹੋਇ ਸੁ ਭਲਾ ॥ਪ੍ਰਭ ਕੈ ਸਿਮਰਨਿ ਸੁਫਲ ਫਲਾ ॥
Parabẖ kai simran ho▫e so bẖalā. Parabẖ kai simran sufal falā.

 

(S-u) that which (hoey) is done (simran-i) by conformance to commands (kai) of (prabh) the Almighty is (bhalaa) good.

One’s actions are (suphal) fruitful by (simaran-i) conformance to commands (kai) of (prabh) the Almighty; as (phalaa = fruit) fulfilment of longing for the Almighty is attained.

 

ਸੇ ਸਿਮਰਹਿ ਜਿਨ ਆਪਿ ਸਿਮਰਾਏ ॥ਨਾਨਕ ਤਾ ਕੈ ਲਾਗਉ ਪਾਏ ॥੩॥
Se simrahi jin āp simrā▫e. Nānak ṯā kai lāga▫o pā▫e. ||3||

Only (sey) they (simrah-i) remember/conform to Divine commands, (jin) whom the Almighty (aap-i) IT-self (simraaey) causes to conform.

I (laagau) touch (ta kai) their (paaey) feet, i.e. humbly seek guidance from them, says fifth Nanak. 3.

 

Page 263

ਪ੍ਰਭ ਕਾ ਸਿਮਰਨੁ ਸਭ ਤੇ ਊਚਾ ॥ਪ੍ਰਭ ਕੈ ਸਿਮਰਨਿ ਉਧਰੇ ਮੂਚਾ ॥
Parabẖ kā simran sabẖ ṯe ūcẖā. Parabẖ kai simran uḏẖre mūcẖā.

 

(Simran-u) conformance to commands (kai) of (prabh) the Almighty is (oochha) higher (tey) than (sabh) all religious practices.

(Moocha = large) multitudes of people (udhrey = lifted) are emancipated from vices (simran-i) by conformance to commands (kai) of (prabh) the Almighty.

 

ਪ੍ਰਭ ਕੈ ਸਿਮਰਨਿ ਤ੍ਰਿਸਨਾ ਬੁਝੈ ॥ਪ੍ਰਭ ਕੈ ਸਿਮਰਨਿ ਸਭੁ ਕਿਛੁ ਸੁਝੈ ॥
Parabẖ kai simran ṯarisnā bujẖai. Parabẖ kai simran sabẖ kicẖẖ sujẖai.

Waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ki fateh ji veer ji. I do listen to katha but recently i haven't had much time as i have been really busy my nitnem banis.My current routine is that i usually that before sunset around 2 hours.

 

I take a bath/shower then start to read these banis in this order nowdays Chandi Di Vaar,Chandi Charitar 1,Bhagauti Astotar,Shastar Naam Mala,Sukhmani Sahib. Then Jap Ji Sahib and Ramkali ki Vaar Satta Balwand once Sukhmani Sahib Ji is finished. I do try to add other banis that i have mentioned previously if i get time.

 

But now i am gonna start to listen to the katha of these banis as i do need to start to understand the arths of these mahaan banis. So i am thinking about using Sant Baba Gurbachan Singh Ji Bhindrawale.

Waheguru Ji

Giani Thakur Singh has done entire katha of Guru Granth Sahib Ji for those who want a basic understanding of each tuk without going in too deep of an explanation.  

Many people have benefited from these kathas

Since you already do  Sukhmani Sahib that will be a good place to start.

This katha is from the beginning of Sukhmani Sahib to

ਸੇ ਸਿਮਰਹਿ ਜਿਨ ਆਪਿ ਸਿਮਰਾਏ ॥
Se simrahi jin āp simrā▫e.
They alone remember Him in meditation, whom He inspires to meditate.

ਨਾਨਕ ਤਾ ਕੈ ਲਾਗਉ ਪਾਏ ॥੩॥
Nānak ṯā kai lāga▫o pā▫e. ||3||
Nanak grasps the feet of those humble beings. ||3||

The entire explanation is only 30 minutes. Humble benti to listen to these 30 minutes and share what you think Waheguru

Waheguru ji ka khalsa waheguru ji ki fateh ji Veer Ji. Thanks for posting the link Dass is very thankful for the katha as it was originally Gyani Thakur Singh Ji that i became inspired to do banis like Sukhmani Sahib Ji,Brahm Kavach,Shastar Naam Mala and other countless ones mentioned in the previous posts. There katha had a massive impact on me throughout the years especially since 2014.
