Bhai SunSingh Jeo,
Thank you for a wonderful and informative post!
Whatever you have mentioned makes a lot of sense. And you are right in emphasizing the need to take Gurmantra ONLY from Punj-Pyare. The second aspect of Naam drirr - which is basically the technique, logically speaking, one should be able to get the guidance from anywhere.
However, I always wonder, why some people or jathas keep it so secretive. Shouldn't there be massive prachar of it, instead? That means, either our assumption of the above is incorrect, or there is not a healthy attitude by some jathas!
Can you or anyone else please support our following assumptions by Gurbani or any other way:
1. Naam Drirr is just a technique of doing Naam Simran - and can be taken from anyone?
2. Main thing is Gurmantra...even if one doesn't get Naam Drirr, he/she can always take the guidance from any Mahapurush/books, etc...No need to go pesh to Punj Pyaare?
Thanks in advance!
