QuoteIt was discussed earlier that Indra, Brahma are the positions and not individuals so someone at that post might have gotten saved where everyone else went back to Jooni. Question here is that Vedas are mentioned to be written by Brahma, was it the one who got saved. How can we differentiate? Where in Gurmat does it say that Indra and Brahma are positions? Indra has no role in Gurmat likeby Suthra Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
This video is not in accordance with Gurmat. In the following pangti ਹਰਿ ਸਿਮਰਤ ਸਭਿ ਮਿਟਹਿ ਕਲੇਸ ॥ he is suggesting ones kalesh can be solved through their own understanding and efforts.

I want to say charan here refers to charan kamal inside. Look at the book Gurmat Veechar on pg 121 . Bhai Sahib has given straight definition of sachee dharee as straight beard ( non tucked , non shaved) . Meaning sachee dharee is part of our bana when approaching Guru Granth Sahib Ji the same way Guru Gobind Singh Ji said we should approach him with shastre he also says we should approach him huby Suthra Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
ssingh26QuoteIs it ok/inline with Gurmat for others to randomly start screaming, crying, to fall down, or to sporadically roll around during Naam Abhyias? I find it quite irritating as it destroys the concentration that I have tried building up. The kind of blissful and spiritual experiences one receives by doing jaap of Gurmat-Naam is recorded in Gurbani. Im not sure it mentions anywhere in Guby Suthra Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
For a detailed description about Bhagat Bani how its recited and how its dhur ki bani refer to chapters 6 and 7 in the following Ebook. * Gursikhs do not accept the non Gursikh view that Guru Nanak Dev Ji was a social reformer who collected the teaching of Hindu and Muslims saints and merged them with his own " writings". This is not an accepted Gurmat view for Gurmat seekers. Concerningby Suthra Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Yogmat, jainmat, budhmat, hindumat etc all fall under the same category which is manmat. This specific pangti was referring to dharma of the Hindus so I decided to say hindumat instead of gurmat.by Suthra Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Shouldnt it be a bigger concern that he is saying that Guru Sahib was cursed with the tatti tavi for " changing " the bani of the Bhagats?by Suthra Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
There is no symbolism here. The meaning is straight forward . According to Hindumat killing a brahmin, killing a cow, accepting food from a low caste person is a grave sin resulting with the worse kind of punishments. But those who dont take shelter in Gurmat and forget Naam are always in sin.by Suthra Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
He is not the only one. Sad to say many Sikhs even believe that Bhagat Bani was recited well before Guru Nanak Dev Jis time and Gurmukhi. Its quite common for these Sikhs to refer to the Bhagats as Hindus and Sufis and so forth. Only a few Gursikhs accept that Bhagats were Gursikhs who received Gurmat-Naam and recited Bani in the presence of Guru Sahib and not some other time.

Very interesting theory but it does not seem valid. Theres no evidence suggesting it was originally 34.

Gurbani is the roop of Akal Purakh and so it contains amri-naam. Read more and contemplate and follow what you are reading then you will get full laha of Gurbani. Let the bani sink inside you.

Arrow Ji, Your condescending attitude is not helping you persuade anyone about your Vegan religion. Since you think all replies are “ expected and predictable “ then why waste your time posting?

Vegan Steven, Veganism is not a movement against oppression its a movement started by animal right activist. The same type of people who love animals but could care less how they treat and talk to humans. Do you honestly think the vegetables on your table did not come at the cost of exploiting human and in most cases children? Veganism is more akin to Jainism not Sikhi.

Veer Ji , sorry if my message was not clear. I do not refer to Maha Singh as a traitor I refer him to as a Gurmukh because he became shaheed. But there was one time where he did betray. I was referring in past tense to the 40 Singhs who at one time did betray Guru Sahib and wanted to be sant sikhs instead of sant sipahi sikhs.by Suthra Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Bhai Sahib , the story about chali muktey is quite common what gives you reason to suspect it didnt happen?. There are two sets of chale muktey one set refers to the 40 singhs that became shaheed at Chamkaur Sahib the other set refers to the Singhs who I think you are referring too. The place where these 40 singhs became shaheed is commemorated by the Gurdwara Sri Muktsar Sahib. These desertiby Suthra Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Meeting Waheguru is not the same in Sikhi as it is in Abrahamic Faiths. There is no dialogue the same way Abraham or Moses had.

You have to take this Sri Mahavak from Bachitar Natak in the context of Chaubis Avtar bani. Guru Sahib is not telling Gursikhs to believe they are not Parmeshwar if this is the case then why would Bhai Gurdas Ji, Bhai Nand Lal and Gursikhs in Guru Granth sahib Ji refer to Guru Sahib as parmeshwar?

Bhai Gurdas Ji mentions that Guru Sahib is the full roop of Akal Purakh so he could of not taken birth in creation at anytime like mortals or other avtars that have come.

Bhai Sahib, From childhood I remember the sakhi about the Cobra through oral tradition. As an adult I never checked any books to verify these facts. But as an adult I think I did come across the story of the Cobra in Kavi Santokh Singhs book Suraj Parkash.

When Mehta Kalu sent Guru Sahib to school the Pandit tried to teach him Guru Sahib recited ਸਸੈ ਸੋਇ ਸ੍ਰਿਸਟਿ ਜਿਨਿ ਸਾਜੀ ਸਭਨਾ ਸਾਹਿਬੁ ਏਕੁ ਭਇਆ ॥ The Pandit then said he could not longer teacher Guru Sahib because he already knew everything.

The gist of this var is to teach the distinct difference of Gurmats view on how Akal Purakh manifested in this creation through the sargun saroop of Naam. The verses should not be interpreted as Akal Purakh manifested fully in the 10 avtars as Vishnu. In destroying the demons and protecting the devotees, there are times in history that Akal Purakh temporarily and partly manifested in these avtarby Suthra Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
