The Love of Sassi and Punnun, though of different castes is everywhere spoken of. The fame of Sohani who used to swim the Chenab river in the night to meet Mahival is well known. Ranjah and Hir are renowned for the Love they bore each other. But superiorby gsingh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
He also talks a lot about importance of Naam which is good. Naam Abhiaas is not seen as important by many people in Panth, So that is also another good thing he says. But again he also says many weird things as well and takes many things too far, so we should take what he says with a grain of salt. Learn what we can, take the positives and leave the negatives.

A few things to consider. 1) He is very anti Dasam Granth, any talks of his on Dasam Granth should be avoided. 2) He is openly saying he has been to Sach Khand and has taken 300 people to Sach Khand etc. This kind of talk is not Parvaan in Gurmat. This is the basis of a Cult. 3) He does say many good things as well. He mentions many mystical concepts that unfortunately we do not talk about iby gsingh - Gurmat Discussion Forum

I was disappointed to say the least that at LA Smagam Akhand Keertan was stopped in order to have a lecture in the middle of Keertan and then Keertan resumed. This left a bitter taste in not just my mouth but in all of Sangat that was there. Keertan should never be stopped in order to give a presentation, there is ample time before Keertan during the day. The reason I feel they stopped Keertan waby gsingh - Gurmat Discussion Forum

Sukhdeep Singh, Bhai Kulbir Singh was not talking about Ghadris, but Ghadaars (traitors). Guru Sahib has mentioned that the Khalsa will rule. Khalsa will rule Rome, Kabul, Ghazni, Mecca, Medina. The throne of this Kingdom will be at Delhi. I fully agree with Kulbir Singh, anyone that opposes Khalsa Raj is a traitor Ghadaar (not Ghadri.), such person will be punished severely by Guru Sahib.

Recently someone mentioned to me that the story behind the Shabad: ਖੂਬੁ ਤੇਰੀ ਪਗਰੀ ਮੀਠੇ ਤੇਰੇ ਬੋਲ ॥ may be fake.

Beautiful Veechars by Bhai Sahib! Another Shabad that I really like is: ਬੇਦ ਕਤੇਬ ਇਫਤਰਾ ਭਾਈ ਦਿਲ ਕਾ ਫਿਕਰੁ ਨ ਜਾਇ ॥ The word ਇਫਤਰਾ means fake, made up, false etc. Bhagat Jee is saying that the Vedas, Korans etc. are all made up, they are make-believe; they do not remove ਫਿਕਰੁ from one's heart.

When you are doing Seva of Guru Granth Sahib Jee, i.e Parkash Seva, Sukhasan Seva, or sitting on Tabia. You should be wearing clean clothes and should have done full ishnaan.
