In regards to monitoring the heat in Guru Sahib's divaan or saukhasan kamra, I think it is reasonable for purposes of preservation. WIth puraatan saroops this is very important, because if the humidity is not regulated, then the saroops with go birdh faster.by Preetam Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
in the 16th pauri, you have written it as "tis tey bhar talai kavan jor" shouldnt it be zor?by Preetam Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
I remember doing amritvela sangat with a gurmukh here for a continuous period of time. We would do abhiyaas in hazoori of Guru sahib while parkaash was done. Some days I would get to bhai sahib's house and Guru sahib would still be saukhasan, but Bhai sahib's khanda would be going with full force. After awhile of this happening I asked bhai sahib why they did not do parkaash on those days andby Preetam Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum

Nothing is outside of akal purkh's razaa. I remember a veechar that we had with gursikhs at a camp once where we discussed the concept of bhana and hukam. It was discussed that there are 3 types of bhana. Akal purkhs bhana, guru sahibs bhana, and the individuals bhana. Guru sahibs bhana is rehit, bani, ie. gurmat. And the individuals bhana is anything that goes outside of rehit and is known aby Preetam Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum

There is a typo in the Japjee Sahib Santhiyaa, in the Sodar part the ucharan column says gaveah(n) for a tukh that does not have gaveah in it. Also, at the end of the Sodar part shouldn't it be paatshahee paatshaah, instead of paatshahee paatsaah ?by Preetam Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum

Gursikhs have always told me that if your dhiyaan is starting to develop, and it is becoming easier to do abhiyaas or bani, then you are on the right track. It is not in our control what boons akal purkh will reward us with, or when. But we can make the effort to do sifat salah with full prem sharda, with akal purkh's kirpa of course!by Preetam Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
I think the problem becomes when we make it into a big issue. If this singh does have feelings he should ignore them, it's not that big of a deal. Just like bhai sahib said, Sangat time should not be wasted on such futile thoughts.by Preetam Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
The first time my oldest sister heard the ardaas done by senior gurmukhs in the jatha here, she got very emotional at this part. It was the one thing that made her feel like jatha actually respects women. We should for sure include this in our ardaas.by Preetam Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
The bibian were so amazing, because they were so beautiful, that the moghals would be in awe just looking at them. And then the bibian would get bir ras and finish the moghuls without a word. You cant fight a bibi. Bibian are the only ones who can be gupt. And you get to give birth to bhagats... GURU SAHIB says dhan dhan to the mothers of bhagats! I am in awe of that.

Veerji, I have always been taught by Singhs that we shouldn't worry about our physical well-being when we are going to do seva, because we are trying to please our beloved by keeping full sucham and staying within Maryada while doing seva of Maharaaj.... we should sacrifice everything for Guru Sahib's satkaar. Guru Sahib will take care of the rest. Just keep drirhta that Guru Sahib will hby Preetam Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
Bhenji, To your question about wearing shoes while transporting gurbani, I think the logic behind not wearing shoes is that you must do punj ishnaana before handling pothis or gutke. So I would personally not feel comfortable touching a gutka unless my shoes were off and I had done punj ishnaana. So you would remove your shoes when going to do punj ishnaana, and then you would pick up the potby Preetam Singh - Gurmat Discussion Forum
