   Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa! Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!! Wings Of a Butterfly ******************** In ten directions, clouds cover the sky like a canopy. Through the dark clouds lightning flashes and I am terrified. My bed is empty and my eyes are sleepless. My Lover has gone far away to distant lands. O mother, I have received no messages. When my Beloved used to go out, even if nearby, word would be sent to me. How could I forget my dear Beloved, the Giver of peace and all virtues?

The unbaked clay pitcher dissolves, when water is poured into it; this is also the nature of the body. || 1 || Why, O Siblings of Destiny, do you strut around, all puffed up with pride? Have you forgotten those days, when you were hanging, face down, for ten months? || 1 || Pause || Like the bee which collects honey, the fool eagerly gathers and collects wealth.

   Since i was kid.. i do not approve of giving sewa (money) to kirtaniass when they are doing kirtan on stage.. Giving Sewa after the kirtan and not in front of public is ok.. I don't know when this stuff started.. But does this practice usually runs during our guru sahibs time?? it's distraction and plus it discourage raggis sahib jeees and it brings competition between raggis world and THAT"S the reason we see em doing kirtan in Filmi Tunes and stuff..

    Ingredients of a Sikh One part saint, one part soldier, One part that's always learning As one grows older. One part service, one part sword, One part that's ever-evolving On life's drawing-board. One part spiritual, one part political, One part that aims to expose All that's hypocritical. One part fearless, one part unthreatening, One part that continues to hear When the din is deafening. One part meditative, one part martial, One part that's eyes remain open Yet is completely impartial. One part kettle, one part kirpan, One part that keeps collecting knowledge As the clock ticks on. One part kirtan, one part prayer, One part that …

    Bhai Sahib Randheer Singh jee & The Seva Panthi Mahant By Bhai Darshan Singh jee GaRguj Translated by Admin www.tapoban.org In 1941 I received a letter from Srinagar, by Bhai Sahib, that asked me to attend the Akhand Paath and Keertan Smaagam at S.
