Gupt ji I have no idea, but to my understanding, Guru ji says 9 doors (gates). I'm not aware of them saying holes. Who am I to question Guru ji and why should I when they are the ones I bow to, therefore I trust Gurbani to be the truth. I understand why you are asking ji, but my soch is whatever Guruji says is right, otherwise why do I bow to them? Why do I ask them when things go wrong? If I thought it wasn't right in what they say, then I may aswell not bother to ask anything from them, be it in Sukh or Dukh. They are not my pictures, they are from the site mentioned above, I went out of my way and spent time to research to find an answer to your question. Maybe you can ask them why they are not included. The reason I chose this presentation is because I was trying to understand it myself too, and I felt this is a good example, as to my understanding of the 9 doors(gates) is that both men and women have the same. The urinary, I feel is same with both genders and I think Guruji did not leave anything out because the reproductive organs are in both too, so they are counted as one with the urinary as they reside at the same place and not in the upper part of the body such as ears. A man also plays a part in reproductive aswell as a women, they both have the same function. A woman does not produce a baby on her own. That is my understanding only, but you can ask a high avasta soul, I'm sure they would give you the right answer. Sorryji but it's my opnion only. I could be wrong too, so don't take my word for it. If any knowledgeable person can explain it rightfully please educate. Bhul chuk maaf Karo.

Dsgkeepingitreal what's ur old Id? I thought Kira ji ur id meant Kira, (worm or insect) as in Gurbani.

Ohh I thought Sukhamehtab whatever was Mehtab Singh Paji. Oops,so it's somebody else then, oh ho.

Hanji Gurdwaras do have the literature, but paji, you see when one is used a way of life for most of their years, then it's kind of not easy to make that shift. Be it due to anxiety to want to change or not being able to comprehend as much as one is younger. It's because they are so used to a certain way that they immediately think no, they do not want to change. But the generation after them has the opportunity to as age does make a big difference. Their college schools days are over, no offence but it's like that expression "You can lead a horse to water (but you can't make him/her/it drink)."If anything the only thing that will work is sincerity, love and compassion.

The main reason the naujaawan will know more is only because of technology advancing and more learning is available at the gurdwaras, classes etc, which the older generation did not have access to. Also there was libraries, but how many had Gurbani related books, materials? Probably none. I think the young ones need to help the elders with that side of knowledge (the ones that do not have it). Younger ones are more intelligent to use Internet, etc that's the reason they gain the knowledge, and use this gift also to educate the elder ones. To make change the elder ones should be willing to learn, listen and compromise with each other. There needs to be a balance. I think each committee should have a mix of elder and younger members of sangat, not just one age group, and both genders.

Hanji u are both right, Kira ji and Balkaar ji. I then suggest their relatives and youth in their extended families communicate with them to be willing to listen to the youth and negotiate to create new methods and give sangat opportunities to connect to Gurbani. Although there are some gurdwaras that work with the youth and create a great atmosphere at the Gurdwara, but I guess it depends what area one is from too.

When the young ones are older then time will tell what they can do. I don't like the phrase get the old ones out either, they are funny but I say in a sincere way. And we must understand some may not have the standard of education one requires to see, but they are not unintelligent, some have are very intelligent and have years of experience of life, which the young ones don't. I just don't like one program that's all. Instead of saying get rid of them, young ones should find ways to work alongside them, and vice versa. Young and old need each other to flourish in life.

Good idea. I like the awareness programs of issues we have in the community though, counselling, health, bullying, and charities. If viewers want to see something being covered then should send emails or call them, and say politely this is what you would like to see. Lol Paji, rendo, fer tha peejaa roj Milna c. Lol @ relax. Hahahahahaaaa natke, tapusi marke and backward somersault in the air, fer kena c " Si, no, grazie, parla Punjabi boldi? Ciaooo meoowww daal .. " ?

2.The sangat being interviewed get mixed up with that sometimes lol, "hanji Sikh chalal de prograam asi dekde Roj", ?when it's Akaal/ sangat channel asking if they happy with them. 3. But they do its in the information on the remote, but wrong country. ? 4. And 5. Lol I thought d-live meant daytime live, I quite like that idea if it's daytime live shown later on in the day. ? 6. Naaaahhhh plz don't get rid of the crowd, that's the best bit, watching what everybody else is doing. ? 7. I never understand what the discussion is about. ? 8. Lol, Italy viah karlo paji. ? @ Kira ji I never listen to the matrimonial shows at what they actually saying, I think most women probably just look at their suits. "Aj burgundy gold paya suit". ? Yup can't understand why they have the caste matrimonial show. reference number 3456788886543467776556776555677 ? Overall I think the channels are good. Some gud programs they put on I record to watch later. But live ones some can't be recorded. The highlight of the day is "So how joo feeling today? Joo want to say any thing ? " ? Plz channel waleo don't stop this one " hanji main sare country ja aya, joo s ay, kaneda, amerika, courier, jerman, Japan, Africa, Jamaica, sengpor, UK, europe, UK (it's not in Europe Hana), Hawaii, ?

Same as GSingh9 Paji : good English explanations.

Waheguru loves all their children. If the icha, chahat (desire) is there then Maharaj ji will do kirpa (blessings). Bhai Jugraj Singhs experience:

So true only myself to blame. "Sukh main Simran kare, to dukh kaaeko hoe". Wahh. Dukh Mein Simran Sab Kare, Sukh Mein Kare Na Koye Jo Sukh Mein Simran Kare, Tau Dukh Kahe Ko Hoye [in anguish everyone prays to Him, in joy does none To One who prays in happiness, how sorrow can come]

ਇਕ ਦੂ ਜੀਭੌ ਲਖ ਹੋਹਿ ਲਖ ਹੋਵਹਿ ਲਖ ਵੀਸ ॥ इक दू जीभौ लख होहि लख होवहि लख वीस ॥ Ik ḏū jībẖou lakẖ hohi lakẖ hovėh lakẖ vīs. If I had 100,000 tongues, and these were then multiplied twenty times more, with each tongue, ਲਖੁ ਲਖੁ ਗੇੜਾ ਆਖੀਅਹਿ ਏਕੁ ਨਾਮੁ ਜਗਦੀਸ ॥ लखु लखु गेड़ा आखीअहि एकु नामु जगदीस ॥ Lakẖ lakẖ geṛā ākẖī▫ahi ek nām jagḏīs. I would repeat, hundreds of thousands of times, the Name of the One, the Lord of the Universe. ਏਤੁ ਰਾਹਿ ਪਤਿ ਪਵੜੀਆ ਚੜੀਐ ਹੋਇ ਇਕੀਸ ॥ एतु राहि पति पवड़ीआ चड़ीऐ होइ इकीस ॥ Ėṯ rāhi paṯ pavṛī▫ā cẖaṛī▫ai ho▫e ikīs. Along this path to our Husband Lord, we climb the steps of the ladder, and come to merge with Him. ਸੁਣਿ ਗਲਾ ਆਕਾਸ ਕੀ ਕੀਟਾ ਆਈ ਰੀਸ ॥ सुणि गला आकास की कीटा आई रीस ॥ Suṇ galā ākās kī kītā ā▫ī rīs. Hearing of the etheric realms, even worms long to come back home. ਨਾਨਕ ਨਦਰੀ ਪਾਈਐ ਕੂੜੀ ਕੂੜੈ ਠੀਸ ॥੩੨॥ नानक नदरी पाईऐ कूड़ी कूड़ै ठीस ॥३२॥ Nānak naḏrī pā▫ī▫ai kūṛī kūrhai ṯẖīs. ||32|| O Nanak, by His Grace He is obtained. False are the boastings of the false. ||32||

Nice post Harsharan Ji. "I just have a pledge for you and all, howsoever life maybe difficult, or the situations be absolutely adverse for us due to our very own karmas, even then we should not let go the only anchor we have, and that is Him." Hanji, ਕਰਮੀ ਆਪੋ ਆਪਣੀ ਕੇ ਨੇੜੈ ਕੇ ਦੂਰਿ ॥ करमी आपो आपणी के नेड़ै के दूरि ॥ Karmī āpo āpṇī ke neṛai ke ḏūr. According to their own actions, some are drawn closer, and some are driven farther away. ਜਿਨੀ ਨਾਮੁ ਧਿਆਇਆ ਗਏ ਮਸਕਤਿ ਘਾਲਿ ॥ जिनी नामु धिआइआ गए मसकति घालि ॥ Jinī nām ḏẖi▫ā▫i▫ā ga▫e maskaṯ gẖāl. Those who have meditated on the Naam, the Name of the Lord, and departed after having worked by the sweat of their brows - ਨਾਨਕ ਤੇ ਮੁਖ ਉਜਲੇ ਕੇਤੀ ਛੁਟੀ ਨਾਲਿ ॥੧॥ नानक ते मुख उजले केती छुटी नालि ॥१॥ Nānak ṯe mukẖ ujle keṯī cẖẖutī nāl. ||1|| O Nanak, their faces are radiant in the Court of the Lord, and many are saved along with them! ||1||

Sometimes we think that those that have hurt a soul will reap what they sow in next life or not at all, but God may deliver justice quicker than one thinks. There were two separate individuals who wanted me dead for what reason I do not know as I used to be very humble with them, maybe jealousy.But I used to say How do these people get away with such badness and be so nasty as to want to hurt so much. I really thought well nothing's going to happen this life and I won't see it next life if I come back or not. But one day one of our relatives told us her husband had got very ill but survived. And the other out of the blue, 5yrs later lost a family member and is now going through the consequences of lies and Hera pheri they did. I would never wish anything bad on anybody, but at the time it hurt a lot and I felt like ending it all, but somebody I met, I feel God sent as support said to me don't worry they will get what they reap this life, not next. And I kept saying no they won't it's karm de khel next life like I have from my past life have dukh. But he just laughed and said God will do it this life. I thought he was talking nonsense, but he was right God took away from them what they were trying to do with me. And instead of being happy that God delivered justice which I never wanted or expected, I cried for them, it hurt to see the pain they went through. But now I trust Guruji is always there for me be it through bad times even when I think they are not. jkvlondon penji is right sodhna is always done.

I also have come across many that would intentionally want to hurt my soul and would not care if I'm dead or alive, but Waheguru ji is the only one that one can trust properly. I went through a bad experience too much to cope with, but penji jkvlondon u helped me I remember when I needed somebody, I'm not sure if u remember but that time made it easier for me to cope with what I went through. And I thank Waheguru ji for that advise u gave me too. God bless u ji.

You are a brave strong soul penji jkvlondon. You are right it's easy for one to judge somebody's past or experiences they go through as not everybody is wise or intelligent as others maybe, so it's easier to be taken advantage of. In some cases it's very difficult to tell who is genuine caring person and who is not, as when the trust breaks once it's very complicated to trust another. Nobody wants to be taken advantage of and if one knows at the time what's happening obviously they would do the best to stop it. But some circumstances one does not realise until it's too late or already happened. Halaat and majboori also add to it. People think by calling the girls and women that have been through a bad experience is wise. But it only shows immaturity from their side, as they could never understand what they went through. Instead of belittling and disowning one should support, everybody makes mistakes and if one wants to change and needs support, then God is all forgiving and the only one that does not judge, then others do not have a right to judge anybody for being naive or trusting, as it's not happened to them. Some peopl just don't care how they hurt somebody as long as they get their own way. But God watches all.

Nice, even by listening your soul is still absorbing it.

Like other posters have said you need to enjoy and absorb Gurbani too, there's no point doing with guilt or fear. God is nirbhau nirvair, It may help to do mool mantar to an audio tune that you can connect to, thus creating the positivity and you will focus on vibes of the shabad, and the pronounciation will be easier to learn. Don't rush it just go with the flow. Seek Waheguru jis blessings, they are the true one that will help you. Ps: (btw I'm a penji.)
