Akaal Purakh Di Fauj

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh I am currently reading about Sant Kishan Singh Ji a sewadaar of Dhan Dhan Satguru Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj's kitchen and student of Sant Attar Singh Ji who spent a lot of time with Sant Ishar Singh Ji Rarewale and was wondering if anyone had any pictures of this Gursikh? If you do please post them here so that all members of Sikh Sangat can benefit. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Surely we should push ourselves before we push others.

Ghost requests Akhand Paath Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh The following story is from Katha by Giani Avtar Singh Ji - Badni Kalan Wale. Giani Avtar Singh Ji is the grandson of Sant Giani Gurbachan Singh Ji Khalsa Bhindranwale. The katha is entitled "Sikhi di Rehit," it can be found on gurmatveechar.com About 20 years ago, a family in India was blessed to have a Sri Akhand Paath Sahib of Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaj at their house. Giani Avtar Singh Ji attended the Sri Akhand Paath Sahib. The Paathi Singhs recited the Paath with complete Maryada. The reason for the Akhand Paath was that a young man (youth) in the family had recently died. After his death, the soul of the young man was wandering and eventually the soul possessed his brother. After entering into his brother's body, the soul spoke and requested that the family should do a Sri Akhad Paath Sahib for him. Giani Ji in his katha says that through this sakhi, we will understand the importance of Gurbani and also the importance, need and greatness of the Sikh identity given to us by Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj. After the soul requested that an Akhand Paath be done for him, the family members went to a few places to seek help in performing the Sri Akhand Paath Sahib. Eventually, the family came to Giani Avtar Singh Ji and asked him for help. They requested full tyaar par tyaar Singhs (always ready, spiritually elevated Khalsa Singhs) to do the seva of the Akhand Paath Sahib. Giani Avtar Singh Ji discussed this with some Gurmukh Singhs and they agreed, then they began the Akhand Paath seva. Giani Avtar Singh Ji mentions that he was present at the Bhog (completion) of the Sri Akhand Paath Sahib. That day, the brother of the dead young man was present there too. It is assumed in the Katha, that the soul of the dead young man would enter and leave the body of his brother from time to time. The family then prepared some food for Giani Avtar Singh Ji and the Singhs. The brother of the dead man was sitting there too. Other family members were present. Then suddenly, the brother began to feel dizzy and was unaware of his surroundings, he then closed his eyes. The family knew exactly what was going on. The family told Giani Avtar Singh Ji that the soul of the dead man is entering into his brother's body now. Giani Ji says that after hearing this, he was carefully paying attention to see if they were just pretending or not. Then, while speaking to the brother who was possessed, Giani Ji asked, "What is your name?" Then Giani Ji asked, "What was the purpose of you coming back if you had already died?" Then the soul spoke and said "I wasn't supposed to die yet, I still had some years left in my life. What happened was, I became unconscious after being electrocuted. Then my family members put milk into my mouth (thinking it might help). I had no idea what was going on. Due to my family pouring milk into my body, I died, because after a person is electrocuted, water/liquid should not be given to that person." Giani Ji continued speaking with the soul, and then an important question was asked, "After dying, where did you go?" Giani then pauses the story for a moment, mentioning that only the souls who have died can tell us these things (about the after life). People like us who are still living don't have the knowledge on these matters. Continuing on, Giani Ji mentions that the soul replied, "I was taken to a very bad place, hell." "They took me there (Jamdoots - Angels of Death) and I was very miserable and grieving in pain, just by being there." Giani Ji then asks, "How did you get released from there?" Soul replied, "One day, the head person (Dharam Raja) came there to inspect and see what was going on." Giani Ji then explains, that whatever body the soul was in before death, those same qualities are then carried on to the after life. The soul mentioned, that he was kesdhari (kept uncut hair) before his death. Soul continues saying, "When the head person saw that I was kesdhari, he ordered that I be taken out of hell. Then the head person asked me if I have ever done Paath (Sikh prayers). I replied that I only used to do Paath of Jap Ji Sahib before my death, but not other Gurbani prayers and I have never let scissors touch my hair. Then the head person told me that because of these 2 things: not cutting your hair and doing Jap Ji Sahib Paath, you will be released from hell. If you hadn't done these good deeds, you would've been in hell for ages, who knows how long!" The soul continues on saying, "I then remembered the sakhi when Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj was explaining to a Sikh named Bhai Dhana Ji, that if a Sikh who has never cut his hair enters into hell, I will pull him out of hell by the hair on his head." Giani Ji explains that the soul was freed from hell because he had never cut his hair and also he had done Paath of Sri Jap Ji Sahib. This is what caused the soul to enter his brother's body, in order to relay the message to his family, to request that an Akhand Paath Sahib be done for him. Gurbani's power is limitless. It helps us here and in the after life. Even souls that have already died are thirsting for Gurbani and its power. Dhan Dhan SatGuru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj.

Have Faith in the beautiful hands of Dhan Dhan Satguru Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Although we may all be on different levels of the ladder to the beautiful feet of Satguru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj we all have to start somewhere. I don’t think it’s as simple as all or nothing - perhaps the kara is the beginning of her journey? Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

I don't think anyone is disputing that. But it will be really sad if that's all you took from this topic.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Unfortunately Namstang “I’m still waiting for a copy” so I can’t answer your question. I expect like everything in life it will be very hard but that won’t stop us from trying. Can you post a few of the things you learnt from Sri Bir Mrigesh in this thread please? Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh As Kam1825 already said Sri Bir Mrigesh which was written by Bhai Sher Singh Ji a disciple of Brahmgyani Baba Khuda Singh Ji is probably the best place to start. I’m still waiting for a copy. The quote is from a book which had a brief jeevani of Baba Bir Singh Ji. I will look it up and let you know. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Happy Birthday Singhstah - you're getting old!! Here is your present Waheguru Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Baba Bir Singh Ji’s message to Bhai Maharaj Singh Ji and to all those who wish to play the game of love “When a person embarks on a spiritual journey, he will encounter many obstacles. These may be physical in nature, such as sickness or mental such as lust, anger, greed, attachment and pride. As he successfully crosses these obstacles he begins to acquire occult powers as a result of which many people become his followers. At this stage usually many seekers fail.” “They get lost in these powers and forget the goal they had set out to achieve. If some rare soul, by the grace of Dhan Dhan Satguru Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj does not waver at this stage and continues to march onwards to the feet of Satguru Ji by following his rehat then he is sure to merge into the ocean that is Akaal Purakh.” Bhai Maharaj Singh Ji engraved these words into his heart and soul and through the grace of Satguru Ji finally achieved his goal. May we also act on these words of Baba Bir Singh Ji and progress on our journey to the feet of Satguru Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaj. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Asmlondon, thank you for posting that link. 5th of July 1856 was the day that the selfless and untiring son of Dhan Dhan Satguru Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj returned home after wielding his father’s word and sword as a true saint-soldier. All those who wish to see Khalsa Raj must read the jeevani of Bhai Maharaj Singh Ji. Satguru Ji sends shooting stars like Bhai Sahib to light up this beautiful path when times are dark and to set an example for all his beloved Sikhs. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Khalsa Raj/Khalistan? Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh "The Guru is no ordinary man. He is to the natives what Jesus was to the most zealous of Christians. His miracles were seen by tens of thousands, and are more implicitly believed than those worked by the ancient prophets." Vansttart, the Deputy Commissioner of Jallundar who arrested Bhai Maharaj Singh Ji "Had he remained at large, but a little longer. more outrages of an alarming character would have been attempted the result of which, would perhaps be impossible to foretell." Mcleod, Commissioner of the Doab. Thank you Kam1825, Lowestofthelowsinghni and Singhstah I hope everyone else follows your examples. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Seeing as there have been quite a few threads on this forum about the various diamonds of the Khalsa panth I think it’s about time we have one on Dhan Dhan Bhai Maharaj Singh Ji, the definition of a saint solider. Can Guru Ji’s Sikhs please post any information/stories/paintings that they may have of Bhai Maharaj Singh Ji? Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Keep in mind "If you wish to deal in matters of the Faith, {Keep in mind that} if Sukha Singh and Mehtab Singh had come to Punjab to file a suit in order to catch Massa Ranghar, he would never have been caught. If Baba Deep Singh Ji had sought writis {of the courts } from here, The Haidari Flag - of Afghans - would never have come down from Harminder Sahib. If Bhai Banda Singh Bahadhur had consulted with commissioners and lawyers, it is certain that Wazir Khan would never have been captured."

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Over the last 4 years I’ve noticed that every couple of months some old/new posters write a long rant complaining about the quality of posts on sikhsangat often reminiscing about the ‘good old days’. Let no one ever do this again. If anyone’s does can they please be forwarded to this thread and be reminded of the saying, “Be the change you want to see in the world”. Finally Admin can this thread please be closed and made into a sticky to act as a reminder to all of us who would rather talk about ourselves than our father, Satguru Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj, the king of kings, the saint of saints and the only boat which can carry us across this terrifying ocean.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh Before reading the sakhi below could I request all Sikhs of Dhan Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj to post stories about Satguru Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj for the next few weeks? As Sikhs of that Guru we are meant to follow our Guru’s footsteps and if we don’t even know where he walked how can we follow him? So please even if it’s a very well known sakhi please post so we can all learn something about our beautiful friend, father, king and guru. Many people of all religions began to flock to Sachkhand Sr Anandpur Sahib Ji to be blessed with the darshan of that king of this world and the next Satguru Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj. Maharaj had started many kitchens, which were run by his beloved Sikhs. Just like today Guru Ji’s langar was served free to all those who came into the house of Dhan Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj. Bhai Nand Lal Ji was in charge of one of these kitchens. One day antarjami Dashmesh Pita Ji decided to visit all his kitchens in disguise. Guru Sahib went to his kitchens a little bit before langar was meant to be served and told the sevadaars that he was very hungry. Maharaj in disguise was met with great love but was told to return later on when langar would be served. All of the kitchens Maharaj went to gave him a similar response. The last kitchen that Kalgidhar Ji visited was the kitchen run by Bhai Nand Lal Ji. Here Maharaj was also told that langar was nearly ready. As Maharaj turned to leave Bhai Nand Lal Ji came running after him with whatever was ready and began to plead with him to sit down. Bhai Nand Lal Ji said, “The home of Guru Nanak Dev Ji is like no other in this world or the next. No one shall leave empty handed.” Guru Maharaj in disguise smiled at Bhai Nand Lal Ji and began to eat his langar. The next day Guru Ji told the sangat the whole story. Maharaj then told his beloved Sikhs to follow the example of Bhai Nand Lal Ji. Even today Guru Maharaj comes to his own home in disguise. Do you great that unknown stranger with love or do you turn them away? Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

There’s no gullible about it. As you often state this is a Sikh forum and as such we should expect everyone to tell the truth always. Or is lying acceptable to you? Just in case anyone was wondering Tarandeep Kaur edited her post above.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh That’s nice to know you had a Rottweiler. An experienced dog owner like yourself will know misbehaving dogs are usually looking for attention which their owner has failed to provide them with. We will do an ardas to Maharaj that he corrects your previous failings and blesses you with time and love for your new dog so that you don’t mess up his/her life. Finally regarding your comments about no brains I’m not sure how you judge a dog’s intelligence. As there doesn’t seem to be any standard like in humans where intelligence is usually based on mathematical and language skills. I’m not sure about the former but you seem to suffer severely with the latter probably the result of some syndrome, developmental delay or learning difficulties. Having said that one of the beautiful things about this world is that everyone is different and unique in their own way much like dogs. So even though according to you Rottweiler’s are ugly and not intelligent they possess other qualities such as loyalty and love. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh
