ਆਸਾ ਮਹਲਾ ੧॥
Aasaa, First Mehl:
ਵਾਰ ਸਲੋਕਾ ਨਾਲਿ ਸਲੋਕ ਭੀ ਮਹਲੇ ਪਹਿਲੇ ਕੇ ਲਿਖੇ ਟੁੰਡੇ ਅਸ ਰਾਜੇ ਕੀ ਧੁਨੀ॥
Vaar With Shaloks, And Shaloks Written By The First Mehl. To Be Sung To The Tune Of 'Tunda-Asraajaa' (ang 462):
ਇਹ ਵਾਰ ਸਲੋਕਾਂ ਨਾਲ ਉਚਾਰੀ ਗਈ ਤੇ ਸਲੋਕ ਵੀ ਮਹਲੇ ਪਹਿਲੇ ਦੇ ਹੀ ਲਿਖੇ ਹਨ ।
ਇਹ ਵਾਰ ਟੁੰਡੇ ਅਸ ਰਾਜੇ ਦੀ ਵਾਰ ਦੀ ਧੁਨੀ (ਧਾਰਨਾ) ਅਨੁਸਾਰ ਗਾਈ ਜਾਵੇ।
ਅਸ ਰਾਜਾ ਸਾਰੰਗ ਰਾਜੇ ਦਾ ਪੁੱਤਰ ਸੀ। ਇਹ ਬੜਾ ਸੁੰਦਰ ਸੀ, ਇਸ ਦੀ ਮਤਰੇਈ ਮਾਂ ਨੇ ਇਸ ਦੇ ਆਚਰਣ ਉਤੇ ਝੂਠਾ ਦੋਸ਼ ਲਾ ਕੇ
ਇਸਦੇ ਹੱਥ ਪੈਰ ਵੱਢ ਦੇਣ ਦਾ ਹੁਕਮ ਕਰਵਾ ਦਿਤਾ, ਪਰ ਜਲਾਦ ਇਸ ਦਾ ਇੱਕ ਹੱਥ ਵੱਡ ਕੇ ਸ਼ਹਿਰੋਂ ਬਾਹਰ ਛੱਡ ਆਏ। ਇਹ ਕਿਸੇ
ਹੋਰ ਰਾਜੇ ਦੀ ਨਗਰੀ ਵੱਲ ਚਲਾ ਗਿਆ। ਉਥੇ ਜਾ ਕੇ ਇਕ ਧੋਬੀ ਕੋਲ ਨੌਕਰ ਹੋਇਆ।
ਇਸ ਸ਼ਹਿਰ ਦਾ ਰਾਜਾ ਮਰ ਗਿਆ। ਇਸ ਦੀ ਸੰਤਾਨ ਨਾ ਹੋਣ ਕਰ ਕੇ ਵਜ਼ੀਰਾਂ ਨੇ ਗੁਪਤ ਫੈਸਲਾ ਕੀਤਾ ਕਿ ਜਿਹੜਾ ਸਭ ਤੋਂ ਪਹਿਲਾ
ਇਸ ਸ਼ਹਿਰ ਦਾ ਦਰਵਾਜ਼ਾ ਖੋਹਲੇ ਉਸ ਨੂੰ ਰਾਜਾ ਬਣਾਇਆ ਜਾਵੇ। ਦੇਵ ਨੇਤ ਨਾਲ ਧੋਬੀ ਦਾ ਬਲਦ ਗੁਆਚ ਗਿਆ। ਇਹ ਬਲਦ
ਲੱਭਦਾ ਲੱਭਦਾ ਉਸ ਦਰਵਾਜ਼ੇ ਕੋਲ ਪੁਜ ਕੇ ਖੋਲਣ ਲੱਗਾ ਹੀ ਸੀ ਕਿ ਸਿਪਾਹੀਆਂ ਨੇ ਫੜ ਲਿਆ ਆਤੇ ਵਜ਼ੀਰਾਂ ਕੋਲ ਪੇਸ਼ ਕੀਤਾ।
ਉਨਾਂ ਨੇ ਇਸ ਦਾ ਥਹੁ ਪਤਾ ਪੁਛਿਆ ਤੇ ਇਸ ਨੂੰ ਰਾਜਾ ਬਣਾ ਦਿੱਤਾ।
ਰਾਜਾ ਸਾਰੰਗ ਮਰ ਗਿਆ। ਅਸ ਰਾਜੇ ਦੇ ਮਤਰੇਈ ਭਰਾ ਸਰਦੂਲ ਰਾਏ ਰਾਜ ਸਾਂਭ ਲਿਆ ਤੇ ਉਸ ਦੀ ਅਸ ਰਾਜਾ ਨਾਲ ਲੜਾਈ
ਹੋਈ। ਅਸ ਰਾਜਾ ਜਿੱਤ ਗਿਆ। ਭੱਟਾਂ ਨੇ ਇਹਨਾਂ ਦੀ ਲੜਾਈ ਦੀ ਵਾਰ ਉਚਾਰੀ।
ਸੀ੍ ਗੁਰੂ ਅਰਜਨ ਦੇਵ ਜੀ ਨੇ ਇਹ ਧੁਨੀ ਲਿਖ ਕੇ ਹੁਕਮ ਕੀਤਾ ਕਿ ਆਸਾ ਦੀ ਵਾਰ ਟੁੰਡੇ ਅਸ ਰਾਜੇ ਦੀ ਵਾਰ ਦੀ ਧਾਰਨਾ ਅਨੁਸਾਰ ਗਾਈ ਜਾਵੇ।

it would be nice if they weren't singing about the same two things everytime...however, on the hand, i don't like it when they do some dharmic song cuz they just look like complete hipocrits. if they really wanted to sing about sikhi then first they should become sikhs.

This happened like more than month ago but I just remembered to post today...
There is this Singh who is in jail in Fresno county. He has been in jail for 13 years I think...He took a flight from India and the moment he landed in USA he was basically arrested. He's wanted by the Indian government for murders...stuff having to do with khalistan I think...he killed some police officers. Anyway, he has like around 30 some charges against him. All but 3 have been dropped and these 3 are the main big murders.
So this Singh is in jail and the sangat here has been raising funds to pay for his attorney and all those legal costs, and they send money to his family in India. Once in a while, some families go down there to the jail to visit him. My dad went with them to the jail. Since it was already kinda late they only allowed 3 ppl to go in to see the Singh. Basically, they have to take off their kirpans to get in. My dad said it was funny cuz everyone was holding their kirpans in their hands like it was a banana :lol: .....
That Singh in jail is in good physical shape though, strong minded....knows meanings of Gurbani even though he was young adult when he got in jail...He says its really cold in the cell since all they give you is a sheet to cover yourself. And he's not allowed to wear a dastaar because they think he could use that to kill himself.
So it got me thinking....would it be alright to take your kirpan off and leave it in your car or with someone to see a Singh who has sacrificed a lot for the panth? Maybe just to give that Singh some sangat for the time they allow you to visit him? What you think?

I love this poem, its not about anyone specific, but its still hecka good so I'll post.
Author: a well known Singh who wishes to be anonymous :e:
Hail you! oh Kaur!
You were considered evil and impure
Endless and intolerable pains you had to endure
For your father and brother you were always a load
Painful obstacles forever blocked your life’s road
Religion after religion came on this earth
Yet cursed the one responsible for man’s birth
Then came the true divine master of creation
Made you a princess and blessed you with jubilation
Starting from Bibi Nanki, my Guru Nanak Dev Jee’s sister
All the way to the Khalsa mothers who suffered every blister
Sacrificed their husbands, brothers and sons
Some to cruel swords, others to fanatic guns
Not a single cry was ever heard from their mouth
Their glory is sung today from the north to the south
Not a wrinkle on their foreheads, not a drop in their eyes
Bowing before their feet one sees the seven skies
But today when I look around it pains my soul
Seeing Gurujee’s daughters forget their goal
Disowning their history, faith and culture
Running after lust, that wretched dark vulture
Disrespecting their body in many disgusting ways
Shying away from all of the Eternal Lord’s plays
Losing their purity and then peace of mind
Falling prey to worldly pleasures that later get unkind
I am no one who has any license to teach
Can’t be a preacher as I am myself a leech
But this much prayer I shall offer at your feet
Wishing that someday the Lord we all can meet
This much prayer I offer with folded hands
That your fame stretches across all possible lands
And the last few words that I have got to express
Are from my inner being and not just to impress
Blessed are you, oh Kaur! For you have prepared
Lions for the battle from whom tyrants are scared
Blessed are you, oh Kaur! For yours is the glory
Which strikes terror within the merciless and the gory
Blessed are you, oh Kaur! Unaware of what is pain
Earning for martyrdom, not once but again and again
Blessed are you, oh Kaur! With you is my Guru Gobind Singh
Your True Father, True Mother, and True Eternal King
Feel proud! You are Gurujee’s princesses! :lol:

HOW I CAME INTO SIKHI
How I got into sikhi...
"Three years ago I got into sikhi, I have always been into sikhi like wanting to know more, but I had no sangat!!!... I was one of those PROUD TO BE SIKH people. I did used to go gurdwara, but tried to get out of it a lot.
I stayed in Birmingham with my cousins 3 years ago , they had just recently taken amrit , so I was inspired by them , they told me stories on sikhi daily and took me to a nagar kirtan my first 1 , and gurdwara a lot , from that point I realised I wanted to take amrit at some point in my life.
When I got home after 2 weeks, I went straight into my room and did mool mantar paat (as I had a gutka). Everybody in my family started thinking I was mad, that I got brainwashed by my cousins (always have to blame someone). As my parents are not religious nor are my family , my dads a Mona smokes etc , Mums religious as in goes gurdwara all the time does so much sewa, but doesn't really follow any rehit.
So slowly I started using the internet a lot... Researching about the gurus and sikhi and meeting good sangat online, using Sikh forums a lot. My parents began to wonder where I was learning all this sikhi stuff from, as nobody really in my family are religious.
I became a vegetarian, no egg or fish! (I didn't think about it just decided to in 1 min after talking to my cousin, after a conversation we had.) .. I was so determined to keep it up, and I did. Everybody was like I give you a week... it had been a year! I was learning more about sikhi... Through sangat and internet
Anyway…
3rd year this year... HARDESTT EVER!! ... Guru Ji has set huge tests for me.
This year I've been following rehit, kept all my kakkar, go gurdwara a lot, do my paat etc. But family were so against it I couldn't understand why my family were so against it... maybe because they wasn't used to seeing me religious, as nobody else in the family was, I used to eat meat , at weddings etc dance a lot dress up all that typical stuff etc.
But I've realised the true path now, I went to my first rehnsabhi, AMAZING! My dad didn't know about it as he would have said no , my mum did , as I stayed round my cousins and went with some of my singhnee friends . , From that day I changed!!! It only takes some sangat to change me ... I stopped listening to bhangra (I was a fanatic literally!!!) I stopped make-up, removing hair etc. All because of that rehnsabhi.
At this point people really thought I was mad , family would laugh at me , call me a Freak , blame people for bringing me into sikhi( but wouldn't you're family be supportive of you coming into sikhi? guess not).. It was the hardest I've ever faced.
Then at school I faced another test ... The school didn't allow me to wear my Kara in p.e I refused to remove it. This went on and on... I got some singhs to come down to school they sorted it out... Ok took time, like had to go to the board of governors but with maharajs kirpa it worked out (thanks to the singhs to, done great seva.).
I started to go to more rhensbahis, keertan darbars they CHANGED ME SOO MUCH! I loved it couldn't get enough; kirtan 24/7 for me now... loved it LOVED IT loved it!!
Family were so mean to me, but I knew I had guru ji by my side ( gur maerai sung sudhaa hai naalae -My Guru is always with me, near at hand.)
I stayed a weekend at my other cousin's house they are all amrtidhari (but they're like my dads cousins kids so a little far)... There was a rehnsabhi that night... OMG I WAS IN LOVE! I sang out loud... Was in deep meditation did seva chilled with the sangat... the next day got up early as there was a r4g mission to go to .. I went WOW!!! All I can say... That changed me for good... That was like my first step towards the route of amrit.
I went home wore all my 5 kakkar... Wore patka's, that evening some of the singhs were saying in about 2 weeks amrit sanchar anybody ready heres you're chance. I didn't really think about taking amrit like in the weeks to come. I just let it slip my mind. I spoke to the singhs again, and I started to realise “I'm ready for this” ... But I knew my parents would say NO! As in how are you going to get married? (Plenty of great sangat now)... job? (Maharajs kirpa)... How would you fit in...? It went on!!
The date got closer and closer... I did ardas to maharaj daily to show me the true path ... to give me a sign whether or not guru ji thinks I'm ready to take amrit..
I spoke and spoke to people about it... I knew at this point I was ready!! ... Well I thought ok I'm going to break it down to my parents, I thought my mum would be fine. Dad would most probably be like “no get out the house”...But No dad was fine, he goes I will ask you're mum if she says yeah, then you can take amrit!! I was like shock but sooo soo happy
I started to get ready for my amrit sanchar, then dad asked my mum, they wasn't to sure .. So they asked my Granddad he said NO!!
.. My heart broke into pieces...
I cried and cried and cried...
I didn't talk to nobody...
At that point I realised how much i wanted amrit... How much I wanted to give my head!! .. I couldn't stand the fact my parents said no “how dare they stop a person on the path of god". I was determined to take amrit, whether it be I go by my self without telling anybody!! ... Hmm risky... The worst they could do is kick me out the house. I didn't care
I did ardas the next day. And asked my parents, I needed their blessings, I cried I pleaded, finally managed to persuade them they said YES! ... VAHEGUROOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOOO!!! Vaheguru ji had done so much kirpa on me it was unbelievable ...
But... I didn't tell my parents id be wearing a dastar heheh!! Loll... took amrit WOW!! I came home with a dastar on... my dad was fine about it, mum was funny she still is but who cares... I GAVE MY HEAD! I WAS OVER THE MOON
I GAVE MY HEAD ON 13TH AUGUST 2005!! .. It felt amazing; I cannot describe in words how I felt how happy I was that this had happened to me.
I can't believe it, that I'd give my head, at the age of 15 anyway!! .. In shock seriously.
I took amrit in my summer holidays, went to school, everyone was fine... Ok 1 person said something but who cares! IM GURU GOBIND SINGH JI'S DAUGHTER! IVE GOT A CROWN ON MY HEAD! I'm more than determined to carry on.
I JUST THANK VAHEGUROO JI FOR GIVNG ME THIS OPPURTUNITY! FOR SHOWING ME THE TRUE PATH... I HOPE VAHEGUROO JI BLESSES OTHERS TO. "

Financial Aid For College/uni In Canada ?

I need to know if the Canadian government provides financial aid for needy/poor people in Canada who want to go to college or university? In USA we have the FAFSA application...does Canada have something like that? Please give me a link to it online so I can look it up.
thanks in advance...I really need to know!
