Thanks Bhai Sahib! I was told by veerji that ਸ-ਰਸੇ = ਰਸ ਨਾਲ ਭਰ ਜਾਣਾ, ਸਰਸੇ/ਸਰ-ਸੇ = ਅੰਨਦ ਨਾਲ ਭਰਪੂਰ ਹੋ ਜਾਣਾ/ ਖੇੜੇ ਵਿਗਾਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਆ ਜਾਣਾ So he mentioned that in Sri Anand Sahib, the second and prevalent pronunciation makes more sense. Please advice.by Harmeet Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
What is the correct pronunciation? I have learned ਸ-ਰਸੇ but I was told by someone that everyone has always pronounced as ਸਰ-ਸੇ Similarly for ਸਰਸਿਅੜੇ, is it ਸ-ਰਸਿਅੜੇ or ਸਰ-ਸਿਅੜੇ? In keertan we have always heard ਸਰ-ਸਿਅੜੇ but I have learned ਸ-ਰਸਿਅੜੇby Harmeet Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum

Are there any references in Gurbani which clarify whether Vaheguroo created His Guru Jot (Guru Nanak) first followed by Naam and the whole creation or first created the Naam followed by Guru Jot and then the entire creation?by Harmeet Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Apologies if it wasn't clear but the ਸਤਿ in the first option of the title was independent exactly as you mentioned. Is there a reason grammatically for this ੴ ਸਤਿ ਗੁਰਪ੍ਰਸਾਦਿ separation or just that it make more sense according to other mool mantar written in Sirlekh?

Thanks Bhai Sahib but this link is in Hindi so couldn't get it. Is there any book you recommend in Punjabi which summarizes key styles and formation in a decent way?by Harmeet Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
I love to write poems though have no understanding of poetic styles or formation. Thinking about Bhai Bachittar Singh I was trying to write something but the 3rd para which was coming to my mind was of completely different styles than first 2 paras. Is it OK for poems or shall I rethink. If I shall rethink, do the first 2 paragraphs style look reasonable or is the third one better? If you can wriby Harmeet Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
We with our limited intellect can't give enough respect to Gurbani but a quick question to sangat: Should Gurbani in gurmukhi & the english transliteration be given the same respect?by Harmeet Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Thanks Bhai Sahib. Which book has Bhai Sahib Bhai Randhir Singh ji mentioned about it?by Harmeet Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
What do Guru Gobind Singh Maharaaj want to say here? In Guru Granth Sahib ji, it is clear that Guru Sahibs were parmeshwar themselves ਜੋ ਹਮ ਕੋ ਪਰਮੇਸੁਰ ਉਚਰਿ ਹੈ ॥ ਤੇ ਸਭ ਨਰਕਿ ਕੁੰਡ ਮਹਿ ਪਰਿ ਹੈ ॥by Harmeet Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Daas had been writing a small children's book on Sri Guru Nanak Dev Sahib Ji for some time where I could tell the true story in line with Gurbani (e.g. Birth of Guru Nanak Dev Sahib ji being before the creation was created, etc.). I wanted to skip the very common Sakhi of Guru Ji doing a true bargain (sacha sauda) by feeding the hungry saints in jungle. All janam sakhis mention about this butby Harmeet Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Thanks Suthra Singh Ji, that is Gurbani under the Sirlekh of Patti Likhi "ਸਸੈ ਸੋਇ ਸ੍ਰਿਸਟਿ ਜਿਨਿ ਸਾਜੀ ਸਭਨਾ ਸਾਹਿਬੁ ਏਕੁ ਭਇਆ ॥". I think Bhai Bala Janam Sakhi talks about both Shabads during that time where as Valait wali janam sakhi just talks about the second one. Another question is about the shade by the Cobra or Shadeby Harmeet Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Is there any sakhi around patti likhi? Some historians say that when Pandit Gopal Das wrote 35 for Guru Nanak Dev Ji (when he was 7), Guru Nanak Dev Sahib Ji wrote complete patti in Raag Asa. Other historians say that Guru Sahib wrote the shabad "ਜਾਲਿ ਮੋਹੁ ਘਸਿ ਮਸੁ ਕਰਿ ਮਤਿ ਕਾਗਦੁ ਕਰਿ ਸਾਰੁ" when pandit started teaching him. Whatby Harmeet Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum

From what I have heard: 1. Baikri - When one recites naam with javan(tongue), hout(lips), khaieyal(thoughts). 2. Madhma - When one recites naam in Kant(throat). 3.

Thanks Bhai Sahib, that is what my understanding is.. maybe couple of books got it wrong or they meant Sarovar but wrote it Harmandar Sahib by mistake. Most books especially the historic ones are the same as you mentioned.by Harmeet Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum

WaheguroojikaKhalsaWaheguroojikiFateh!! We all have read and heard that Guru Arjun Dev Sahib ji designed and founded Harimandir Sahib. However in few books I read that Guru Ramdas Sahib Ji founded it but Guru Arjun Dev Sahib Ji completed the task.
