This is in UK though:

India:

( Sorry can't rate any of them, only did a search)
Thank you for the links and your search.
I have no relatives in India unfortunately.
I have been using Sikhistore for the past few years (great service) but there Royal Blue colour is not consistent. It also fades too much.
Will check out the other links too.
Also came across www.khalsastore.com in India.
Might just make a trip to Punjab soon and make a contact to ship over when needed.
Thank you.

Gurfateh Ji,
Sangat ji, does anyone have a contact (shop or outlet) in India where I can order proper Khalsa Royal Blue F74 malmal dastaars? The really deep blue shade (almost purple looking) that doesnt fade? Nihung colour.
Thank you.
Vaheguru!!

Thank you for yout input - much appreciated and apologies, I just used the term UK as this is where I am based.
You have provided a good bit of infomration of each of the ares I asked. Thank you.
Yes, Hazoor Sahib was also in my mind hence the travelling.
Just want to know (if you can help) how to contact Gurdvara Sahibs about accomodation before arrival and which ones have rooms etc?
Thank you.

Gurfateh Sangat Ji,
I was wondering if anyone has travelled, lived or spent some time in Anandpur Sahib from the UK?
I have been wanting to go and experience Sikhi life out there but do not know how to go about it. Any advise?
Where do people stay? (Hotels, Gurdvara)
How about work - if any?
Travelling?
How to do sangat or get in touch with Singh's/Nihung Singh's there?
Any help or tips would be great.
Also just to mention, I have no relatives or friends out there. I went to Punjab around 15 years ago for a couple of months.
Thank you.
Gurfateh Ji.

Gurfateh Ji,
Can anyone tell me at what ang Chitaropakyan starts in Sri Dasam Granth?
(Please lets not get into a debate about this Bani).
Thank you.

I can't reply from a Gursikhs or Gurmat point of view, only to my own life experience, when there comes a time, where you've seen all the relatives and friends play and due to own karms, you've seen the lowest negativity you can get in and you think to yourself God's name is the only thing that really matters, that helps one to go through the journey of life, which include good and bad phases. And then you think beyond all the la la laa, what's everybody running around for, eh v hojave, oh v hojave, when nothing's going with nobody, neither materialistic, neither stubbornness, neither jealousy, nor Ahankar or anger or maya, or time. Time is the most valuable I've realised to do it in the present, what you need to do.
Thank you for your valued reply ji.
I see it as a blessing from Guru Sahib as not many can remove themselves from attachment of things or people.
I have been going through this for quite some time now. Around 5 years ago I began reciting Salok Mahalla 9 several times daily. Dhan Guru Teg Bahadur Ji Sahib's bachan have been hitting me so hard since then. I often recite one line throughout the day when looking around me at things, objects, people, the world "Jag rachna sab choot hai, Jaan layo ray meet".
I feel I want to leave this world somehow. Had this very strong feeling for many years now.

Gurfateh Ji,
Is anyone going or gone through the avasta where they just want life to end now?
Not as in suicide but asking Guru Sahib with a powerful ardaas. More due to biraag of Gurbani, Naam kamai and also experiences of life which have detached one from many worldly things.
I will add more to this if any Gursikh piyaara can relate.

Fantastic Veerji.
Thanks for the reply and sharing the Gurbani quote.
I was looking into the full version earlier today.

Vaheguru,
FYI - if anyone is interested and would like to look at this Astotar, it is available on the Damdami Taksal Sundar Gutka app (android). It comes under the heading "Sundar Gutka (Budha Dal)" then "Bhagauthi Astotar".
The Shastar Naam Mala is also available on the app under the Budha Dal section.

Vaheguru ji ka khalsa
Vaheguru ji ki fateh jiHmm Im not sure if there is a specific benti to do whilst seva of our Sri Sahib ji, but I usually do jaap of 'Vaheguru' & guru gayatri mantra 'Gobinday Mukunday Udaaray Apaaray Hariang Kariang Nirnamay Akamay'. Remembering God is the main thing we need to do.
Gurfateh Ji,
Thank you for sharing.
I have been doing some research and come across "Bhagauthi Astotar".
Mainly recited by Nihung Singh's and taken from Sri Dasam Granth.
Also found this article online - http://sikh-reality.blogspot.co.uk/2010/01/bhagauti-astotar-paat-is-very-rare.html?m=1

Who are you remembering when saying, Dhan Sri Bhagauthi Ji Sahib" ?
Bhagauthi as in reference to the Sri Sahib/Shastar.

Gurfateh Ji,
Does anyone know what is meant to be recited when withdrawing your Sri Sahib or any Shastar Sahib? (For cleaning purposes or bhog).
I usually just say "Dhan Sri Bhagauthi Ji Sahib" whilst doing namashkaar by bringing it to my forehead.
Is there a certain Bani (perhaps in Sarbloh Granth) that should be recited?

Bro, you know from the day I heard about his health I've had one thought going through my mind and that is that, I wish I could somehow take his cancer from him.
May Maharaaj do kirpa or a chamatkaar.
He is a diamond to the panth and what we as a kaum needed, especially in the UK.
He woke up so many people in different parts of the world and in several ways.
Truly took Dhan Guru Nanak Dev Ji's message out there.

Maaf karnaah ji ,
I wasn't trying to be nosey or disrespect his privacy.
It was only as I heard he done a live video stream at the camp but from home and he was in my thoughts.
Didn't mean to offend anyone or sound to be disrespectful.

If anything it will be on the Basics of Sikhi FB page. The last news were the Chaupai Sahib ji jaaps for his chardi kala and his speech. I haven't seen nothing after that.
I had a look but nothing was there.
I did hear that he done a short live steam from home for the sangat who attended the BoS camp but nothing on YouTube yet.
Also the post was meant to be in the what's happening section... Been a whole since I've logged on.
Thanks for your reply.

How is one officially called nihang?
Veer, are you referring to the lifestyle and ways of nihung Singh's? As in the affiliation?

In the end, to what Cloud Jee says, we may give any name, but the resullt is that, what matters most, are the fine and noble qualities of a real sikh, which are: humilty, faith, detachment, sewa and bhakti (deep love for Wahiguru).
Sat Sree Akal.
Vaheguroo...
I think the OP may be referring to the lifestyle and ways of Nihung life including dress code, affiliation with the fauj etc as well as being a Sikh and having the values you have mentioned.
Apologies if I am wrong.

Gurfateh Guru Piyaarayo!
Does any one know where in the UK (or UK based website) where you can get non alcoholic perfume/scent/aftershave?
It is for Guru Maharaaj Ji's Darbar for the Ramalay and Thabayah.
Apart from Burberry Baby Touch, daas is finding it a struggle to source it.
Thanks.

Sangat ji, I took amrit when I was 15 and have since done kurehits - sexual relationship, drugs, alcohol and cigarettes a few years ago. Got my Sikhi back in line and connected with the Guru 4/5 years ago and the time has come for me to retake amrit as I am so much stronger now and in my early 30s to do so and keep rehit (I was in a weak and low point in life at uni when this all started)
What do I say to the Panj Payre at the Amrit Sanchar?
I tie a dhumalla - they put Amrit in Kesh so open top parna without boongah on the day?
Need help especially by people that have gone pesh.
Thank you all.

Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa! Vaheguru Ji Ke Fateh!
Piyaari Sadh Sangat Ji...
Daas was asked today by a fellow Sikh that wants to take Amrit within the coming months.
Does anyone have any info on Amrit Sanchaars taking place in the London area?
I would appreciate your help so I can pass on the info.
Thank you.

Dhumalla Sweat Stains
in WHAT'S HAPPENING?
Posted
Gurfateh Ji,
Genuine question:
How does one remove sweat stains from their dastaar material?
I tie a dhumalla sahib (blue in colour) and the crossed larhs (over the ears) and the chand lahr (across the forehead) stain with sweat. (Please note, I don't have excessive sweat issues lol).
I have tried hand washing and machine washing with different modes but they're still visible.
Anyone experience the same issues?
Any solutions?
Thank you.
Vaheguru!
