Toronto Smagams 2011

ੴਸਤਿਗੁਰਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ

As the local and international Sangat enjoys the bliss of Amrit Naam and Gurbaani, it is worth noting that many Keertanees would read Shabads that would change the whole atmosphere of the Smagam. The whole hall erupts with the spirit of Naam. Such was the case at the Asa Kee Vaar Keertan. One of the well known and renowned Keertanees of Jathaa did this following Shabad which suddenly caught my eye. What an eye opener this Shabad was. Satguroo Mahaaraaj makes it very clear in this Shabad on how to have Darshan of Siri Akaal Purkh jeeo.

With Guroo Sahibs Apaar Bakshish

All programs so far, have been held in the uchee suchee hazooree of Sri Guroo Granth Sahib jee's lareevaar paavan saroop.

Kudos to the jatha gurmukhs who have done this upraala this year!

It came as a snide remark from an angry singh, who thought something sensible should be done to celebrate Bhai Sahibs 50th Akaal Chalaanaa.

Gurmukhs are very humble and satkaar jog who have done this seva. A shout out to Bhai Deepinder Singh jee (toronto wale) for working this out with all gurudwara committees.

And the trend will continue for the rest of the samagam programs as well, Guroo sahib will be haazar naazar at all programs

Kirpa karo, darshan bakhshnaa jeeo, so that this uprala can be carried forward in the future as well.

Let's support with good attendance.

Dhan Shree Guroo Granth Sahib jee maharaaaj.

i could only listen to the kirtan live, but i wish that i was there too.

it looked like sachkhand!!!!

daas,
khalsaji.

Great efforts made for excellent results !! Guru Sahib Kirpa Karn the practise carries on.

Guru Sahib hor Kirpa Karan.

Kulbir Singh

Beautiful and heart-rendering shabad. May Guru Sahib do kirpa that we may all reach that state of 24-hour remembrance of Akaal Purakh. Imagine the heights to which such a shabad would take one who is feeling such bairaag from the depth of their soul.

Very, very commendable. It is good to know that rather than just talking about it, definite steps are being made towards change.

its very good to here that it was lareewar saroop parkash in this samagam!!

dass,
khalsaji.

Took laha of Toronto rensabhai in New Delhi. Thanks to akj.org broadcast, that the whole Earth could take laha from the Amrit samagams occurring in different locations, just sitting at their homes.

It was great effort overall this time by few the individuals to make sure that Lareevaar Saroop was Prakashman on all events. The Sangat (specially Youth who initiated this dialogue earlier) was very happy and energetic throughout the Samagam, Few guests promised to carry out the same practise at their places during any further Jatha Samagams, which is a very good Sign.

The Toronto Smagam was just amzing i attended most of the programme!!!...

it was great!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

dass,
khalsaji.

i was fortunate enough to attend the smagams this year, they were wonderful. may guru ji do more kirpa.
