Falsehood n Truth

As followers of Guru Nanak Dev ji, to walk on the footsteps of Guru Nanak Dev ji, we should be courageous enough to face the truth. Why do we always hide our self from being truthful? Why do we run away from truth all the time? We often want to do and look at the things they way we want to and when our wish doesn’t come true we get angry and frustrated. We started to behave different and often complain to God. If we look at Guru Nanak dev ji’s life, how beautifully he live the truth in his life and given us best example. How he changed the “Chola” and then resided forever in Guru Granth Sahib in the form of Shabad Guru.

We are leaving Guru Sahib’s teaching aside and living in this imaginary and false world and carving for false things. I, you, they; we all are drowning into the ocean of the falsehood. We have to step up, we have to do efforts to live truth in our life. Guru will take you out from ocean of darkness, Guru has sent a Ship for us; but if we don’t do some effort and sit in that boat, how can we swim over the false world?

Inspiration!

With a thought of going to the camp for the first time, i was all excited, rumbling and hypered. I knew an awesome unforgettable experience, memories are waiting for me. But at the same time i was scared with all those questions i have on my mind. What would i do there? How would others treat me? How does the things in the camp works? What if i can't give out what people are expecting from me? How would i learn? What would i learn and many more questions like that. The night i arrived at Veerji's house and met one of my new friend, as he was helping veerji to get some things done so i jumped into help too. By the time we were done it was like 4 am Amrit Vela and i had to wake up at 5 so i can leave the house by 6 to pick up my friends. So time passed and here we were at the cmap site. Since i was a ""Counsuler", i didn't know what to do where to go.. lol My name wasn't even the list. As i was fixing things and helping i was worried too, hmm where would i sleep =) So well i finally found the place in counselar cabin, observed things, looked around and tried to understand everything but i was still confused. I met many inspiration Gursikhs there, i learned so much stuff from all the kids, all the gursikhs and everyone else around there. Yet i might have done many mistakes but i made few very good friends who will last forever in my life. I had word with so many inspiring Singh and Singhni's from age 6 to 22 to old....
We don't need to have an age limit to get inspired from people around us. We can be inspired by even anything which was created by Waheguru himself. So here was one of my very good trulyl "Gursikh freind", He was coming there for last two days but he didn'tn know i was already there to give him a surprise but all went in vain. Mandeep Veerji called him from my cell phone on the night of his arrival lol so my surprised went dead.. lol But we had so many good sikhi discussions there that tought me things in a different way. Leaning towards Sikhi and at the same time having fun was the most wonderful thing i had seen. EVen thou it seemed like my first time at the camp. through all the inspiration from everyone it didn't make me feel alone there. I have created a bond between everyone before i was leaving. My circle grown bigger, i have many new friends, i have more knowledge now.
All i wanted to do is "Thanks every one for inspiring this manmukh".
Thanks for the inspiration, thanks for the inspiration....
God bless ya all =)

Crying for What?

Dukh Dukh Karda, riha mie Rounda
Nahiyo manaiya shukur gura.n da
Dukh vich Yaad tei Sukh vich Shukrana
Ehi hei sanu sabhna nu, hukam gura.n da
Ro ro sanu kujh nahiyo labhna
Duniya dei pichey assi bhajj kei thakna
Jei roiyei assi rabb dei pichey
Rabb nei ik assa.n naal hie milna!

Reading your face!

Today i was at the Gurudwara Sahib doing sewa so here this "uncle" ji was there called me "Giani ji". I knew him from before and discussed with him that my internal avastha is not at the level where i can be honored to call "Giani Ji". Giani ji simply means who is "giaanwaan" (knowledgable).

He said your face says it all, I've seen you doing sewa i don't really know about what "Gunns' you have but i can surly tell you wheni see you, it automatically comes out from my mouth.
So sometimes your outer apperance, your behaviour gives different preception to the other world that you are a "Gurmukh" But my Guru has explained in very simple manner that no matter if you have a Gurmukh like behaviour, unless you don't have enshrine it within your heart, you will not attain liberation.

"mukhuhu har har subh ko kurai virulai hirudhai vusaaeiaa
Everyone can chant the Name of the Lord, Har, Har with their mouths, but only a few enshrine it within their hearts.
naanuk jin kai hirudhai vasiaa mokh mukath thinu paaeiaa
O Nanak, those who enshrine the Lord within their hearts, attain liberation and emancipation. 82"

Shaheeda nu Parnaam.

takiya akhaan naal dulda khoon shaheeda da
dekhiya jalma nu kardey hamla darbar sahib utey
keinay bedhosha da katal hundey dekhiya ena aukaa naal
Kiniya hi shaheed dekhay wei mie harimander sahib di parkarma uttey

Meriya nikiya aukhaa vichou, enjh hanju ban kei khoon wehan
jad vi jalma nu mie yaad karda, lagda mera khoon ublann.
Darbar Sahib tei hamla karan waliya nu
Milee sajaa uss rab koloun..

Wei throi jini vi sharam na ayee, jo tusi rolna chahiya eis dharam nu
Eis Dharam di khatir Guru Gobind Singh nie sarbans wariya
Tei diti shaheedi Guru Arjan dev ji nei pehlay shaheed ban kei
Oye aaou assi sambhaliyei eis dharam nu, Gura dei payei poorniya tei chal kei.

Kariyei shaheeda nu parnaam sikho
sikhiyei jeen tei maran di jaach sikho
Aao baniyei changey insaan sikho
Sikhi saadi shaan hie sikho

Sikhi and Taiwaa (Matching Kundli)

Recently I have exposed to how many Sikh's have fine tuned their mind to actually believe more in “Matching Kundli's” rather than having faith on Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji. Thou Surrounded by all these pandits thoughts we Sikh’s who doesn’t believe in, find it hard to get away with it. These pandit thoughts does creates a little wobbling sound in our minds but as a Sikh we have a Hukam not to get trapped in these kind of things. I have come to known from these people that if kundli doesn’t match then married couple never stays happy and might get separated after some time. Sure it could be believed and followed by Hindu’s because that’s acceptable/culture in their religion. But as a Sikh I/you/anyone must not follow the recipe which makes that dish.
Anand Karaj is being done in front of Guru Sahib and I am not saying that those marriages doesn’t break that are done in front of Guru Sahib. But I wouldn’t hesitate to say that those couple always be with each other no matter what who walk on the path provided by Guru Sahib. Anand Karaj is a union of two souls through Guru’s blessings and we can find many blessed souls who can be seen ‘loving each other’ without worrying about physical presence in the living world.
Next time if some one asks you about the ‘kundli match’, tell them being a Sikh you have a hukam not to follow these superstitions instead let’s all do ardas that may Waheguru save us from falling in to the ocean of these superstitions.

"in The Praise Of Guru Gobind Singh Ji"
