Inspirational quotes

“Awareness can come only through listening to the Guru’s teachings and living by his wisdom. Fear of court-divine in the hereafter can only restrain from wrong, sinful deeds under the compulsion of greed under pretensions of falsehood. Without baptism of the Guru, not accepting discipleship and not meditating on Gurmat Naam, the mind-oriented waste away this golden opportunity offered by human life. Misery awaits them in the hereafter, where there is no other well-wisher except Naam-Divine. Without Naam-meditation, there is no help. Naam is the only saviour.”
by Bhai Sahib Bhai Randhir Singh In Undithi Dunneeya

Thanks to Bhai Manmander Singh Ji for this quote in another thread,

Prof Puran Singh Jees timeless advice

Stop these mockeries and do not talk but live. Do not be anxious to save Sikhism. Rest assured that Sikhism can take care of itself. Your only anxiety should be to save YOURSELF.

Life's tragedy is that we get old too soon and wise too late - Franklin Benjamin. This is particularly true of so called Sikhs who feel they can wait until they are retired to practice Sikhi, when their useful faculties are well past their sell by date .



Another good quote I came across recently -

ਪਹਲਾਂ ਗੁਰਦਵਾਰੇ ਕਚੇ ਹੁੰਦੇ ਸਨ ਤੇ ਸਿਖ ਪਕੇ
ਹੁਣ ਸਿਖ ਕਚੇ ਹੁੰਦੇ ਹਨ ਤੇ ਗੁਰਦਵਾਰੇ ਪਕੇ

Childhood favorites:


Harkat vich Barkat hai (antidote to depression)

Pa Gal (jera gal nu pa lave) (unflinching faith and love of Guru and Gurbani)

Jo Jaagat hai so Paavat hai (Importance of Amrit Vela)
Jo Soovat hai so Khovat hai

Beautiful quotes - could some please translate this one in english please

ਧਨਵਾਦ ਅਨਜਾਣ ਜੀ !

ਜੇ ਸਿੱਖ ਨੇ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਦੀ ਪੜਤਾਲ ਕਰਨੀ ਹੈ
ਤਾਂ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਨੇ ਵੀ ਸਿੱਖ ਦੀ ਪੜਤਾਲ ਕਰਨੀ ਹੈ

ਭਾਵ- ਸਿੱਖ ਆਪਣੇ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਦੇ ਹੁਕਮ ਨੂ ਸਤਿ ਕਰ ਮੰਨੇ. ਗੁਰਬਾਣੀ ਉਤੇ ਕਿੰਤੂ-ਪਰੰਤੂ ਅਤੇ ਫ੍ਰੋਲਾ-ਫ੍ਰਾਲੀ ਨਾ ਕਰੇ.

Bhul Chuk Maaf.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa,
Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh.

some inspirational veechar's of panth rattan bhai sahib bhai sant singh maskeen:

1) Bohtaa Gyaan kattha kar lain da ik faayda hai.
Andar di Agyaanta dikhaayi dindi hai, andar di Moorakhta dikhaayi den lag paindi hai.

2)"Jan Pisar Padar Biradran Kass Nes Dastangir"

Saareyan rishteyan ton saare baare baare bichad jaange, koi pakad vich nahi ayega. Kidre pyo gya, kidre bhra gya, kidre patni gyi, kidre pati gya, kidre beta gya..
Tu hath naal inhanu pakad ke nahi rakh sakda.

3)Sansar vich aise manukh bohot ghatt han, jina nu sansar dikhaai nahi denda..
Sansar vich aise manukh bohot jyada hai, jina nu nirankar dikhaai nahi denda..

4)Main khush hun ki talaash khushi chod di..
Has raha hun bebak hansi chod di...
Halaat ka takaja mahol ki majburi..
Kya karoon, main kya karoon , aisi kahi chod di..

5)Bazurgi akal to hundi hai na ke umar to..
Ameeri dil to hundi hai na ke paise to..

6)"Mann mailey sab kich maila."

Jisda mann maila hai, ohda daan vi maila, ohda gyaan vi maila, ohda punn vi maila, ohda mandar masjid gurudware baithna vi maila, koi punn nahi.

7)Kabir kehnde ne - Hey Parmatma, main tera darr nahi chadna, Kyu ki tere dar te koi rokda hi nahi.
Parmatma da darwaza aisa hai jo kadey kisse vi layi band ho hi nahi sakda, chaahe koi vi hove.

8)Parmatma nu milan da saukha rasta.. kaamna rahit kita hoya paath, daan, te satsang

Phir ki milna hai...

Tuhi Tuhi, Tuhi Tuhi.... Tuhi Tuhi, Tuhi Tuhi....

9)Main ek boond lai tarsa, tu sagar umdhae
Main mangya ek ful, tu gulistaan sajae
Main laba'n hanere cho'n jeevan di joti
Lakhan teri rehmtan ne dive jagae

10)Zindagi ki udaas rahoon main
Tume bhi udaas paya hai
Na haal-e dil tum keh sakay
Na haal-e dil hum keh sakay
Tum chhupay chhupay se rahe
Hum ne bhi kuch chhupaya hai..

ਕਮਾਈਆਂ ਦੁਹਨੇ ਕਰਨੀਆ ਸੌਖੀਆਂ ਨੇ,
ਨਾਮ ਦੀ ਕਮਾਈ ਸੰਭਾਲਣੀ ਧਨ ਤੋਂ ਵੀ ਵਧ ਔਖੀ ਹੈ।
