This is a video which really inspired me. Katha was done so beautifully.

Thanks for sharing

Akaaaaaaal! I respect this Singh so much. I wish that we all have the courage one day to do something like he didn't, standing up againsf oppression and Beadbi.

I think it's probably natural that your feeling this way since you've waited a long time. But what would Maharaj says. We've all been Manmukhs and have done many Paaps but like a father Maharaj forgives us. She had relationships before getting into Sikhi but now that she is in Sikhi she is also probably asking (like the rest of us) for Maharaj to forgive our past foolish ways and to put us back on the path. So if Maharaj forgives us for our Paap in an instant, I think we ought to be able to also forgive others for their mistakes. It's your choice if you want a different partner. Take a Hukamnama and see what Maharaj says. Maharaj knows best

What are you talking about? I never said there can't be saints of other religions.

Mahan Singh, Please use your brain and don't waste the time of Sangat here. I'm pretty sure you can use your brain and are smart enough to answer your own question. Please do some research and study Sikhi yourself when asking silly, nonsense questions. A saint is someone who is absorbed in the love of Waheguru ji.

Bhaji, don't be worried. I'll share a Sakhi Raja Janak was a devotee of Waheguru ji. When he passed away and went to the Dargah (court) of Dharam Raj on his way to higher realms, he heard the screams and cries on those being punished in hell. He couldn't bare to witness this and asked Dharam Raj why is this happening and to spare them. Dharam Raj Said I can't. Raja Janak then said give a bit of the naam kamai he did on Earth to all the people in hell. Dharam Raj weighed it against the sins of the people and that one bit of Naam Saved everyone in hell at the time. Bhaji this should inspire you. Do some Naam Simran. If this 1 bit of Naam could save so many people from suffering, don't you think that if you surrender and ask Waheguru with all your heart (even tears can be an Ardas) that he will listen and also take care of your wife? By the way if you think I'm making this Sakhi up, Bhai Gurdas ji wrote this. Sri Guru Arjan Dev ji Maharaj says his writings are the key to Gurbani. Below is the story of Raja Janak as written by Bhai Gurdas Ji. Vaar 10, Pauri 5: ੫ : ਰਾਜਾ ਜਨਕ ਭਗਤੁ ਵਡਾ ਰਾਜਾ ਜਨਕੁ ਹੈ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਮਾਇਆ ਵਿਚਿ ਉਦਾਸੀ। Bhagatu Vadaa Raajaa Janaku Hai Guramoukhi Maaiaa Vichi Udaasee. भगतु वडा राजा जनकु है गुरमुखि माइआ विचि उदासी । King Janak was a great saint who amidst maya remained indifferent to it. ਦੇਵ ਲੋਕ ਨੋ ਚਲਿਆ ਗਣ ਗੰਧਰਬ ਸਭਾ ਸੁਖਵਾਸੀ। Dayv Lok No Chaliaa Gan Gandharaboo Sabhaa Soukhavaasee. देव लोक नो चलिआ गण गंधरबू सभा सुखवासी । Along with gans and gandharvs (calestial musicians) he went to the abode of the gods. ਜਮਪੁਰਿ ਗਇਆ ਪੁਕਾਰ ਸੁਣਿ ਵਿਲਲਾਵਨਿ ਜੀਅ ਨਰਕ ਨਿਵਾਸੀ। Jamapuri Gaiaa Poukaar Souni Vilalaavini Jeea Narak Nivaasee. जमपुरि गइआ पुकार सुणि विललाविनि जीअ नरक निवासी । From there, he, hearing the cries of inhabitants of hell, went to them. ਧਰਮਰਾਇ ਨੋ ਆਖਿਓਨੁ ਸਭਨਾਂ ਦੀ ਕਰਿ ਬੰਦ ਖਲਾਸੀ। Dharam Raai No Aakhiaonu Sabhanaa Dee Kari Band Khalaasee. धरम राइ नो आखिओनु सभना दी करि बंद खलासी । He asked the god of death, Dharamrai, to relieve all their suffering. ਕਰੇ ਬੇਨਤੀ ਧਰਮਰਾਇ ਹਉ ਸੇਵਕ ਠਾਕੁਰੁ ਅਬਿਨਾਸੀ। Karay Baynatee Dharamaraai Hau Sayvaku Tdaakuru Abinaasee. करे बेनती धरमराइ हउ सेवकु ठाकुरु अबिनासी । Hearing this, the god of death told him he was a mere servant of the eternal Lord (and without His orders he could not liberate them). ਗਹਿਣੇ ਧਰਿਅਨੁ ਏਕ ਨਾਉ ਪਾਪਾ ਨਾਲਿ ਕਰੈ ਨਿਰਜਾਸੀ। Gahinay Dhariaonu Iku Naau Paapaa Naali Karai Nirajaasee. गहिणे धरिओनु इकु नाउ पापा नालि करै निरजासी । Janak offered a part of his devotion and remembrance of the name of the Lord. ਪਾਸੰਗਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਨ ਪੁਜਨੀ ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਨਾਉ ਅਤੁਲ ਨ ਤੁਲਾਸੀ। Paasangi Paapu N Pujanee Guramoukhi Naau Atul N Tulaasee. पासंगि पापु न पुजनी गुरमुखि नाउ अतुल न तुलासी । All the sins of hell were found not equal even to the counterweight of balance. ਨਰਕਹੁੰ ਛੁਟੇ ਜੀਅ ਜੰਤ ਕਟੀ ਗਲਹੁੰ ਸਿਲਕ ਜਮ ਫਾਸੀ। Narakahu Chhoutay Jeea Jant Katee Galahoun Silak Jam Dhaasee. नरकहु छुटे जीअ जंत कटी गलहुं सिलक जम फासी । In fact no balance can weigh the fruits of recitation and remembrance of the Lords name by the gurmukh. ਮੁਕਤਿ ਜੁਗਤਿ ਨਾਵੈ ਦੀ ਦਾਸੀ ॥੫॥ Moukati Jougati Naavai Dee Daasee ॥5॥ मुकति जुगति नावै दी दासी ॥५॥ All the creatures got liberated from hell and the noose of death was cut. Liberation and the technique of attaining it are the servants of the name of the Lord.

And by the way Bhaji, the soul is eternal (I think, since it will live forever after Mukti).

Bhaji if this world was a world were we lived here forever would people love Waheguru ji. They would neglect him. The purpose of our life is to experience Waheguru and get Mukti. And as a result we will go to Sach Khand after this body passes away, if we follow Maharaj.

Guru Sahib ji never killed anyone.

Bro, that's not the way. You know Guru Sahib's prohibited intoxicants. Rememeber the Sikh you get from naam is far far greater than any drug on the planet. Go to Guru Sahib, ask him from your heart, do an Ardas, take a Hukamnama, go to Sangat even if they don't treat you well. The Gurdwara Sahib is a great place to be. Listen to Kirtan. Try and get your life back together, you're still young and Waheguru hi knows how you feel. Just trust him to help you.

Bhai Sahib, A lot of things will happen in our life. Waheguru ji knows best when our time is to go so we shouldn't be angry or sad at Waheguru. Obviously you may feel a little bit sad, that just shows you have a heart. I think you should remember your wife for all the good qualities she had. Embrace those and put them into heart and share those qualities with others, you'll be greatful for being blessed with such a person in your life. Ask Waheguru ji to keep her soul safe and to help her, that may make you feel better through an Ardas. Paath will help. Do a Paath like Dukh Bhanjani Sahib. Hopefully I helped a little bit, Sangat is here for you, always remember that. Your are not alone ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੀ ਕਾ ਖਾਲਸਾ ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੀ ਕੀ ਫਤਿਹ

He is one of the people at Gurmat Bibek, you know the ones that make YouTube videos.

I read this by Bhai Kulbir Singh ji and it is clearly shows that evolution is against Sikhi. "I read the theory of evolution many years ago and one of the notion it preaches is that species can evolute to higher species e.g. humans have originated from apes. This theory does not seem to be according to Gurmat because all the 8.4 million life forms were formed at once and not through evolution. Some life forms may be active and some dormant, at a given time but no life forms converted to other life forms. It just can't. Dogs cannot give birth to cats and insects cannot give birth to lizards.The human form has Dasam Duaar, Nabh Kamal, that no other life form has. If we believe in theory of evolution, we will then have to believe that Dasam Duaar and Nabh Kamal were products of evolution and formed itself. Furthermore, matter is not animate and as thus does not have intelligence, nor it can think or plan. The theory of evolution is totally contrary to Gurmat. In the evolution theory, matter is intelligent and in Gurmat theory, matter is dead.The evolution theory as invented by Charles Darwin and as propagated by science today is not in accordance with Gurmat. Gurmat believes in the evolution or devolution of the Jeev-Aatma depending on its Karma but the life-forms or the species don't evolve into something else. Gurbani says that the whole creation has 8.4 million life forms (life forms or Joonis are not same as species) and this has been the truth from the beginning. At any given time there have been 8.4 million life forms. If we believe that one life form evolves to another, then there would be an additional life-form thereby violating the Gurmat principle that states that there are fixed 8.4 million life forms.These Chaurasi Lakh life forms not all active at any given time. Some are dormant and some are active but all are existent at any given time.Gurmat does not promote the idea that humans have evolved from Baandars (monkeys). Jo kichh paaiya so ika Vaar.The kids brought up in Western countries have become Mutaasir (influenced) by the modern education that promotes such anti Gurmat notions like evolution and homosexuality etc.ਲਖ ਚਉਰਾਸੀਹ ਮੇਦਨੀ ਘਟੈ ਨ ਵਧੈ ਉਤਾਹਿ ॥The above Pankiti clearly states not only that there are 8.4 million life forms but also that this number does not go up or down. There are more such Pankitis as well but for a Sikh just one Pankiti will suffice.Now if we believe that one life-form can evolve or devolve to something else, then we have to accept that a new life-form has been created and this will violate the above Hukam of Guru Sahib.I am not an expert on the evolution theory but know that one of the claims it has made is that humans have possibly evolved from Baandars (monkeys). The human life form is very special and as per Gurbani this life form is the doorway to Vaheguru and only in this life form it is possible to meet Vaheguru and for this reason this body has secret Dasam Duaar or the mystical tenth door. How did the genetic mutation or whatever it is called, caused to create a life form that contains something as specific as the Dasam Duaar?It is the Jeev-Aatma that goes through different life forms and but the life forms don't evolve to different life forms. A cat is going to stay a cat and will not become a dog, no matter what. Yes within the parameters of the cat life form, it may become large, small, Black, White etc. but it cannot become a different life form.What to talk about and trust science that changes every now and then. Now with the discovery of the so called "god particle" it has rendered many old theories obsolete. The theory of evolution is just a theory and nothing else. Most of it including its concept of the survival of the fittest is garbage. According to Gurbani, Vaheguru is Deena Naath and Ghareeb Nivaaz. He would never allow the survival of the strong just because of their strongness. He according to His will may many times let the biggest underdog to survive and let the fittest perish. Darwin's evolution theory is for Manmukhs who believe that Vaheguru jee is not leading the world and that it came into being and evolved to this level as part of some accidental chemical reactions. Can we believe such nonsense when we know that even a leaf does not move without Vaheguru's will?Kulbir Singh" we should be telling this to more people and not just agreeing with whatever scientists say. The theory of evolution is nonsense when you think about it and I'm going to link some videos about it and how it is false and how this directly proves an intelligent designer Even further, apparently even if evolution were to be a viable process, it would take longer than it takes the sun to burn out. And that doesn't even account for Dasam Duaar etc. Be aware of these theories and know that they are wrong.

I think that's where the ego comes in. The sense of separation is caused by our ego, our haumai.

My interpretation is that the light within us, the soul Jeev Aatma is Waheguru ji's light and it because of his hukam we are here. However Waheguru is distinct from his creation even though he is within creation. Creation is a form of Waheguru but Waheguru ji resides in Sach Khand where he takes care of us as Maharaj reveals in Japji Sahib. Creation i.e. us are not Waheguru alone because we don't have the strength of Waheguru ji. Waheguru ji is an infinite being, all powerful, all loving, eternal, ever present, immaterial, spaceless‌, Atemporal/ timeless being. Since Waheguru resides in Sach Khand (so in a sense he is not only Andhar wala, but also Upar Wale because he resides in a higher spiritual plane, the realm of truth) some may ask how is he everywhere? We can answer this with an analogy. Just like how the sun's rays hit earth from millions of miles away, Waheguru ji's light permeates throughout Sach Khand and into Dharam Khand (where we are) and all throughout creation. This is a very interesting topic and Basics of Sikhi are do a new series on Braham Vidhya and it cover this in much more depth.

Yeah it's everything is a form of Waheguru ji. He is many but one.

These paintings look so good.

I love this Shabad, the meaning is so beautiful!

Is she a Gursikh though?

Lol ? I read your comment wrong.
