Slugz Posted September 22, 2005 Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Ok, here it goes... I am learning Punjabi and am also struggling to learn different shabads to 'sing' along too... In our BabaJi room, we play Rehras Sahib at night, which is followed by Ardas and Kirtan (recorded from Nanaksar)... Anyhow, one of the shabads on the tape (which plays everyday) is Lakh Kushiyah... and I've learnt that (thanks to Snatam Kaurs translation in her latest CD!)... but I'm trying to learn the next shabad which starts with "Jis Nu.... Jis nu tere nadar".... etc etc... Could somebody please please please help me out and send me a link for the english translation and punjabi text (like they have on SIKHNET)... I have been searching forever... Also, I am struggling to find the meaning to a certain Hukanama... I will post the English version of that today or tomorrow, i'd greatly appreciate any assistance... Thanks ever so much, everytime I ask my elders they just brush it off! My grandfather tries to help, but sometimes he doesnt understand my question and cannot just go upstairs and type it on Google to locate the required tukh... Thanks for reading... appreciate your time sangat! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slugz Posted September 22, 2005 Author Report Share Posted September 22, 2005 Hey brother man... thanks for the link, I've never seen that site before, but the problem I'm having is that I cannot find the actual quote... I know its in the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji... but I dont even know where to find it man, seriously! Ok... so I mentioned how the quote I'm looking for is... "Jis Nu.... Jis nu tere nadar" - The whole shabad... And... A Hukanama which stated "Jin Satgur Bheje Tene Bulaye" - which basically means whoever sent you here is now calling you back... this is the final Hukanama Baba Nand Singh Ji Maharaj took before leaving his final diwan... It also holds special significance since my father mistakenly took this Hukanama and only with Babaji's grace was the consequences a fraction of what they should have been (anyhow, thats another story!) Also... "Gur SatGuru dono khare Kis ke lagan paye ji Balihari Guru apne Jin Satguru diya milaye" Thanks sangat... much love Cyber Singh! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cybersingh Posted September 28, 2005 Report Share Posted September 28, 2005 Slugz veer, I am not sure if this is the shabad you are looking for but let me know: Page 961, Line 3 -- Guru Arjan Dev jis no tayree nadar ha-umai tis ga-ee. (Egotism is eradicated, when You bestow Your Grace.) jis no too santusat kalmal tis kha-ee. (Sins are erased, when You are thoroughly pleased. ) Gurbani Translations Page 961, Line 15 -- Guru Arjan Dev jis no tayree nadar na laykhaa puchhee-ai. (One who is blessed with Your Grace is not called to give his account. ) jis no tayree khusee tin na-o niDh bhunchee-ai (One with whom You are pleased, obtains the nine treasures. ) Hope this helps..........

cybersingh Posted September 29, 2005 Report Share Posted September 29, 2005 PS: Cyber Singh - Is there a story behind the picture in your profile? Veer Slugz, you do not need to owe me........I do this in sewa....I'm glad I can be of assistance............... As for the pic, well I found this pic off da net and it really hit me as it shows that no matter what Our Guru's show that anyone can praise God, Akaal Purkh, Waheguru in any form and here he is doing kirtan with lepers and giving them inspiration eventhough they have physical handicaps. This picture just really hits me............. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Slugz Posted October 3, 2005 Author Report Share Posted October 3, 2005 Ok, in all seriousness... I just found that quote... it is something along the lines of... “Guru Gobind Dono Khade, Kisko Lagu Pai, Balihari Gurudevki Jisne Govind Diyo Batai†This isn't the exact same quote, but it's close enough to the one i've always heard... now, here's a serious question... Why when I find this quote does it say... GOVIND... and is surronded by Hindu/Jain religious writings? Also, the GURU's were GOD... so how can a GURU and SATGURU (GOD) stand together? I'm unbelievably confused... help me out Sangat... read below... --------------------------------------------------------------------- “Guru Govind Dono Khade, Kisko Lagu Pai, Balihari Gurudevki Jisne Govind Diyo Batai†Meaning - if the Guru and the Almighty God appears before you, to whom would you bow first? Saints have said, “Without a Satguru’s blessings you wouldn’t even recognise God.†Therefore, one must bow to the Satguru first. Guru meaning a teacher. In Sanskrit a Guru is a person who takes you from darkness to light. There are various types of Teachers / Gurus. Everyone needs a Guru as there is no enlightenment / true knowledge without a Guru. Main Gurus in our lives are:– Our first Guru is the Parents. They bring us in this world and guide and make us independent by giving a basic knowledge of life - help us to walk, talk, eat, dress etc. and lead us to the second Guru. The second Guru is a Teacher at school where we learn the art of communication and specialise in the topics of our choice. The third Guru is called a “tilak Guru†a symbolic Dharma Guru as it is believed that a soul without a Dharma Guru is considered to be unholy. The fourth Guru is Dharma Guru / Satguru – who would give the basic knowledge of life, religion (Dharma) and God and show the way to the salvation of the soul. He is believed to be in direct contact with the Almighty and his blessings can get us out of the circle of life and death and give us the ultimate peace. Satguru is like an Immigration Officer with an authority to grant visas to visit and explore the Govind Dham – self-realisation - travel beyond what we can see. Only Satguru can give us the vision to see the glory of the Almighty – open our third hidden spiritual eye. We should strive to see what is ours – the Soul. We live in the age of science and we believe in only what we see or personally experience. The Soul cannot be seen by our naked eyes and although we can experience the Soul, we have no ability to recognise or identify the Soul. There cannot be true knowledge without the Satguru’s teaching. You may read a thousand books but you cannot gain the knowledge, which a Guru can give you. We are like a blind person, in the spiritual world. If four blind persons were asked to identify an elephant each would describe the elephant as that part of the elephant they may have touched. E.g. the one who touches a leg would describe the elephant as being like a pillar, the one who touches the trunk would say the elephant was like a rope, the one who touches the tail may say it was like a broom and the one who touches the body would say it was like a barrel of grain. All of them would be wrong. Only the person with the full view of the elephant could fully describe the elephant. Likewise the Satguru is the only person who has the full knowledge and vision, of the life, and can explain the mystery of life and death. Therefore, we need Gurus to take us through various stages in life to achieve the ultimate goal. Once you have accepted someone as a Guru it becomes that Guru’s responsibility to provide you with the necessary knowledge to see you through your life. Just as a teacher at a school would teach and help you to get through your exams, a Guru would work for you throughout the year and try to make you see the light of life. Therefore, Disciples have nominated a full moon day in a year called “Gurupurnima†when each Disciple would pay respect and bow to his Guru, bathe the Guru’s feet, as a sign of submission and offer him a gift (dakshina) in appreciation of the knowledge and blessings received from the Guru during the year which will take the Disciple from darkness to light. That is the importance of the GURUPURNIMA Jay Vadher.er. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
