  1. SADH SANGAT JEEE, Can any one let me know where I get pothies of Sarabloh Granth ji......who prints them these days? Just want the bani not a teeka.....is it available in 2 bhags? If you have any pics pls post...
  2. Has anyone heard of the Khalsa Dharam Shaster? I was reading Siri Hazoori Maryada Parbodh and it mentions this book has anyone read it or knows where I can get a copy?
  3. Is there anywhere in Canada that you would recommend buying good shastars from? Not the regular show piece ones, something good and usable. Like 3 footy kirpans, khandas, katars, etc What should I look out for?
  4. Thanks for the reply. They would not be like "together" in the sense of 1 saroop only side by side. So we would have Aaad Bani bhag 1 then bhag 2. then beside Dasam bani bhag 1 then bhag 2. Just want to make sure its ok to keep them all on 1 manji sahib.....and of course sehaj paat would be on going
  5. I have a set of Aad and Dasam Bani pothies. Can I put both sets of pothies on 1 manji sahib at the same together and continue a sehaj paat from both? Just wondering if anyone has knowledge on what the maryada is for this.
  6. Question for you all, what is the proper maryada in terms of dying (coloring) the beard? The reason I ask id I have seen many raagis, parchariks, even samprada singhs use some kinds way to keep there beard black. I ma not sure if there is something that is used that is within the constraints of maryada or it is out right not allowed to color the beards. Can you let me know what you think. Is there some kind've formula that is used to keep the beard black or are they just falling prey to fashion?
  7. My point exactly I have seen many singhs with there shoulders covered with a towel as well when changing the kaschera and that too at sarovers which is why I am asking. I think I may have read this from a post of gyani thakur sing from patiala but cannot find it...
  8. I was reading somewhere that when changing the kashera the shoulders should also be covered? Can someone provide a step by step on this? I know the ponchaa is changed one by one, but the covering of the shoulders is new to me...can someone explain who has knowledge on the topic?
  9. I am talking about the Q&A Derby video and its Jagjit Singh starting the rehras topic...thank you
  10. Can someone with a background or affiliation with a samprada etc answer this question. The above information is ok but I need someone who has sampradaic knowledge. The question and answer Derby thing is not very in depth and is heavy on SGPC's marayada. I find some of stuff they say is laughable. The guy in the grey pug says people don't have enough time so that is why they made it shorter. He says people in the deras are free so can read as much as they want.....the Jagjit Singh person says sampuran is just the name as its given by the dera? Is Taksal a dear? I dont think so...........I need someone who has real knowledge and depth.
  11. I was listening to a video from taksal who say that the rehraas they read is the final version as passed down by Bhai Mani Singh Ji. Then what about the Hazur Sahib and Nihang Singh rehraas, they also claim to be as passed down by Guru Gobind Singh ji....can anyone give some more info on this? Thanks,
  12. Does anyone know where the degh pangtee is from: Karah karan ki bidh sun lejai, Teen bhag samsar kar dejai Majan kar bhanjan dovejai........etc does any one have the full written with source. I know it is in the samprada katha but it does not reference the source
  13. R78...I am not asking for your opinion on whether or not we should light it or not. Simply answer the question if you know the answer, otherwise you can pass on providing your personal beliefs. Seem you don't have much knowledge on these things. What I need to know is when its an Akhand Jot and the wick burns out how do you pull out the wick and not let the jot burn out? Or do you keep another small jot going while you need to fix the main jot. Anybody on here with any experience on this?
  14. Sangat ji, I am thinking of lighting an akhand jot (continuous Desi ghee lamp) for an akhand paat. Does anyone know how to keep it going when the wick burns out? Like at some point the cotton wick has to be changed, how do we do this making sure the jot does not extinguish?
  15. Actually its not measured using bowls, its measured by weight. Pls read up from sooraj prakash."Karah karan ki bidh sun leejai teen bhag samsar ka dejai" In terms of the 4 times of water reference. This is what I was told by the vidvaans from taksal. Because they are from the direct lineage I would say they have the correct formula...
  16. sorry you have missed the point, there is always a formula to everything those who search will find...Read Japji sahib it is full of rules and regulations which have to been followed. Bhagat Dhana ji got vidyaa or gyaan and then attained liberation, read up on it...
  17. Dear Sangat For making degh: The rehat says 3 parts the same by weight (sugar, flour, ghee)then 4 times water. As far as I have heard the water is not weighed. So then how do come up with the 4 parts water? Is it the amount of sugar that is in the baata you just eye ball it and make then add the same amount of water *4?
  18. I have recently got brand spanking new sarbloh karahi (pan) from India, being used for making Degh. In 1 Karahi we have the water and sugar and in the other the Flour and ghee. The karahi that has the water and sugar seems to be rusting while the sugar and water is being heated up....any suggestion on how to remedy this or is it the its supposed to be?
  19. Not all Punjabi/Sikhs were tall and well built, regardless if it is today or back then, thats only your perception or what has been fed to you or what you are led to believe......thats just the reality of it. Bhai Bachitar Singh was only like 5 feet tall and in the khalsa fauj.....lots of different types of builds based on backround and lifestlyes etc. The more educated ones were typically shorter and less built while the farmer people were the built ones...its all genetics. They even say Guru Nanak Sahib and Guru Gobind Singh Sahib were around 5 feet 3 inches. So then they wouldn't fit into your box of what you percieve as the reality of punjabi/sikhs. The same goes for Punjab in general, certain gene pools were tall and certain were not. No different from today.
  20. if you are standing in fron of the prakashed Guru's, then on which side is AAd Baani - Is the left or right?
  21. I just returned from dubai on a flight coming back from Delhi and the exact same thing happened ot me. The guy was a cocky young airport security guy and the exact same thing was said to me. Interesting thing was that there another aiport securtity guy was close by to the guy in question in a seperate counter and he was punjabi wearing a kara and he worked for what it seems like the same company.When I asked this punjabi guy he said these idiots don't consider anybody as humans other than themselves. I have seen quite a few people working there who wear a kara...the locals there have a very bad attitude problem.
  22. What is the proper way in which we should be taking the ashes to Patal Puri Sahib? Is there any infor you can provide in terms of what the proper maryada is?
  23. I understand that flour ghee and sugar have to be weighed and equal parts to make degh. The water is supposed to be 4 times the amount but is not weighed. How do we get the proper amount of water then? Are we to eyeball it. foe ex. 1/4 of the baati is filled with flour hence that amount times 4 is the water needed? How do you guys figure out the water amount..
  24. actually as fas as I know at Takhay Keshgarh sahib they use the 3 foot khanda, I saw it in a movie once a while back. I don't know if that is the one they use always or its just on special occasions.......
