This is a shabad i learnt in Kirtan, and it contains these lines, which i have always thought were intimate and incredibly expressive (in bold): Siree Raag, First Mehla, Second House: He Himself is the Enjoyer, and He Himself is the Enjoyment. He Himself is the Ravisher of all. He Himself is the Bride in her dress, He Himself is the Bridegroom on the bed. ||1|| My Lord and Master is imbued with love; He is totally permeating and pervading all. ||1||Pause|| He Himself is the fisherman and the fish; He Himself is the water and the net. He Himself is the sinker, and He Himself is the bait. ||2|| He Himself loves in so many ways. O sister soul-brides, He is my Beloved. He continually ravishes and enjoys the happy soul-brides; just look at the plight I am in without Him! ||3|| Prays Nanak, please hear my prayer: You are the pool, and You are the soul-swan. You are the lotus flower of the day and You are the water-lily of the night. You Yourself behold them, and blossom forth in bliss. ||4||25||

Kala afghana has 8 grade education in Urdu medium.has no writing skills in Punjabi . Was a police sub inspector and hijacked to canada to malign sikh movement. Books written in his name are impossible to write by one man. It needs dozens of people to proof read books, make corrections, rough print, approve and print these. It takes about 80 people to do that. It is generally believed that books were written at hathras, up. kala afghana name wAS USED as those days no sikh with little self resepct will do such anti sikh act. Likes of hansra, aulakh, avtar sekhon have no depth about sikh theology to understand the garbage written in those books. These thugs posing as khalsitanis have no love for khalsitan AND DISCREDITING sikh martyrs. Hansra is a crook and is not that innocent.he is a frequent visitor to sikh lehar centre ( anti sikh lehar center) and speak their anti sikh language.They make a living out of this like aulakh selling khalistani notes as souvneirs for us dollars. they seem to be making a living out of this.

On a serious note, I see the mods are logged-on yet they seem happy to watch the unfolding tamasha. Surely someone on Quality Control should have their posts regulated a bit more closely?

The thing he is trying to be very modern and presenting Sikhi as very modern religion which doesn't follow any old rituals this way he is making it easy for ordinary people by saying stuff like naam japping is nothing. Reading baani is Nothing. He is actually promoting a way of like which is liked by everyone and people who know nothing are getting impressed. (null)

a little update ........

VaheGuru Jee Kaa Khalsa VaheGuru Jee Kee Fatheh! This topic reminds me of the Prem and Devout Devotion that Sufi Khwajas had for Akaal Purakh/Allah/Rabb/God ,,, If you read some of the Kalams of Sufi poets you may notice that the nature and prose of their work is quite romantic and passionate and many of these Poems have been adapted in old-school Bollywood Classics whereby they're shown to be singing or dedicating the song to their Beloved, i.e. Husband/Wife, life partner etc. Though the Sufi Khwajas would devote these Kalams to Akaal Purakh as they were at such a stage whereby their whole Breath of Life, Soul, Spiritual and Mental State were immersed in that Piaar for their Beloved Rabb ... They would pour their Heart out into these Poems and express their desires to meet Akaal Purakh, to have Their Darshan, and go to the lengths of describing their visions of Him, etc. Check out the below Kalam from my favourite Sufi Poet and you'll know what I mean - Khwaja Ghulaam Farid Jee - Meda Ishq Vee Thoon Mera Ishq Vee Thoon - Khawaja Ghulaam Farid Jee Meda Ishq Vi Toon Meda Yaar Vi Toon Meda Deen Vi Toon Eeman Vi Toon Meda Jism Vi Toon Meda Rooh Vi Toon Meda Qalb Vi Toon Jind Jaan Vi Toon Meda Kaba Qibla Masjid Mimbar Mushaf Te Quran Vi Toon Mede Farz Fareezay, Hajj, Zakataan Soum Salaat Azaan Vi Toon Meri Zohd Ibadat Ta’at Taqwa Ilm Vi Toon Irfan Vi Toon Mera Zikr Vi Toon Meda Fikr Vi Toon Mera Zouq Vi Toon Wajdan Vi Toon Meda Sanwal Mithra Shaam Saloona Mun Mohan Janaan Vi Toon Meda Murshid Haadi Peer Tareeqat Shaikh Haqaa’iq Daan Vi Toon Meda Aas Ummed Te Khattaya Wattaya Takia Maan Taran Vi Toon Mera Dharam Vi Toon Meda Bharam Vi Toon Meda Sharam Vi Toon Meda Shaan Vi Toon Meda Dukh Sukh Ro’wan Khilan Vi Toon Meda Dard Vi Toon Darmaan Vi Toon Mda Khushiyan Da Asbaab Vi Toon Mede Soolaan Da Samaan Vi Toon Mera Husn Te Bhaag Suhaag Vi Toon Meda Bakht Te Naam Nishaan Vi Toon Meda Ishq Vi Toon Meda Yaar Vi Toon Meda Deen Vi Toon Eeman Vi Toon Meda Jism Vi Toon Meda Rooh Vi Toon Meda Qalb Vi Toon Jind Jaan Vi Toon Meda Kaba Qibla Masjid Mimbar Mushaf Te Quran Vi Toon Meda Ishq Vi Toon Meda Yaar Vi Toon Meda Deen Vi Toon Eeman Vi Toon Meda Ishq Vi Toon Meda Yaar Vi Toon - Aaa Ooo (Chants…) Meda Dekhan Bhalan Jachan Jochan Samjhan Jaan Sunjaan Vi Toon Mede Thadray Saah Te Monjh Munjhari Hanjroon De Tofaan Vi Toon Mede Tilk Tilo’ay Seendhaan Mangaan Naaz Nihoray Taan Vi Toon Medi Mehdni Kajal Misaag Vi Toon Medi Surkhi Beera Paan Vi Toon Meda Ishq Vi Toon Meda Yaar Vi Toon Medi Wehshat Josh Junoon Vi Toon (Aaa) Meda Garya Aa’h O Faghan Vi Toon (Aaa) Meda Awwal Aakhir Andar Bahir Zahir Te Pinhaan Vi Toon Tooon Meda Ishq Vi Toon Meda Yaar Vi Toon Aaaa Meda Waal Aakhir Andar Baahir Zahir Te Pinhaan Vi Toon Meda Badal Barkha Khimniyan Gajaan (Aaa) Barish Te Baraan Vi Toon Meda Mulk Malir Te Maro Khalra Rohi Cholistaan Vi Toon Je Yaar Farid Qabool Karay Srikaar Vi Toon Sultaan Vi Toon Na Taan Kehtar Kamtar Ahqar Adna La-Shay La-Imkaan Vi Toon Meda Ishq Vi Toon Meda Yaar Vi Toon Meda Ishq Vi Toon Meda Yaar Vi Toon. Translation: You Are My Ardour You are my ardour, my friend, faith, creed. You are my body, you are my spirit, heart, soul. You’re the direction towards which I pray. You are my Mecca, my mosque, my pulpit. You are my holy books and my Koran. You are my religious obligations, My Hajj, charity, fasting, call to prayer. You are my asceticism, worship, My obedience and my piety. You are my knowledge and you’re my gnosis . You’re my remembrance, my contemplation You are my tasting and my ecstasy. You are my love, my sweet, my darling, my honey You are my favourite, and my soulmate! You’re my spiritual preceptor, my guide , You are my Shaykh and my Enlightened One You are my hope, my wish, my gains, losses. You’re all I see, my pride, my deliv’rance. You’re my faith, my honour, modesty, glory You’re my pain, sorrow, my crying, playing You are my illness and my remedy. You are what lulls me to a peaceful sleep. You are my beauty and my fate, fortune, fame. You are my looking, enquiring, seeking You are my understanding, my knowing You are my henna, my collyrium, My rouge, my tobacco, my betel-leaf! You are my terror, my passion, madness You’re my crying and my lamentation. You are my Alpha and my Omega, My Inner, Outer, Hidden, Manifest. If, O’Belovéd, you accept Farid You are my Sovereign and my Sultan. On a Sikhee level, read Shabad Hazaare Paatshaahi 10 - Mittar Piaareh Noo ... Sri Guru Gobind Singh Jee composed that Beautiful Shabad filled with Bairaag and Prem for Akaal Purakh. These Shabads and Kalams that were composed in such high Avasthas/state of mind, the prose and nature may seem rather 'intimate' but when one's at such a state their whole being is totally immersed into Akaal Purakh; their gender, passions, thought processes, their existence are totally forgotten and they're just in total Mast/state of bliss, as if they're flying in another World with their Beloved Rabb. So to answer your question, when one's at such a state then anything and everything will remind them of Akaal Purakh, even Kaljug won't disturb them from their Anand as they're in deep concentration and constantly enjoying their time with Him. We can only just imagine what it may feel like, but only our Guru Sahibaans, Sanths, MahaPurakhs, Sufists, etc really and truly know. Apologies for any mistakes or going off topic. Sri Akaal Jee Sahae!

He (God) is our only real True love.

The story (as in the events that occured) of the shaheediyan given by Guru Ji's Sahibzaade need to be immortalised in some type of medium of the modern age, so that the current generation - and those yet to come - who possibly aren't aware of what happened are fully informed of these four wonderful souls. But it needs to be done with style and a deft touch that errs on the side of solemnity rather than what could descend into melodrama and "preachiness". The facts and the events speak for themselves and require no embellishment. It just requires some ingenuity, skill and self-awareness, as well as something that isn't just for Sikhs, but something that could relate to anyone of any background. When our own leaders are hell-bent on damaging our future, we must look to the past to inspire us for the years ahead.

Lets do one together. ill start... ik oankar sri vaheguru ji jee fateh patshahi dasvin kabyo baath benthee chaupai hamree karo hath dhaih racha pooran hoe chith kee icha thav charnan man rehai hamara apna jan karo prithpra.......... :cool2:
