  1. Fateh Ji Guru pyaare if you are living currently in Brampton or Mississauga, I plead for a favor. Please private message me. Fateh Ji
  2. Listening to history from one scholar, he suggests that Bhai Lalo was Bidar in another birth. Bhai Lalo was a blessed person. His name appears in Sri Guru Granth Sahib many times. Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji travelled all the way from Sultanpur to Emnabad to visit him. This is where Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji showed milk coming from the langar of Bhai Lalo and blood from the food of Malik Bhago. Bidar was in a similar situation. Daryodhan had invited Bhagwan Krishan for a feast and Bhagwan Krishan instead decided to visit the residence of Bidar, a poor man. Bidar is mentioned by Bhagat Kabeer Ji in the following shabad: ਰਾਜਨ ਕਉਨੁ ਤੁਮਾਰੈ ਆਵੈ ॥ राजन कउनु तुमारै आवै ॥ Rājan ka▫un ṯumārai āvai. O king, who will come to you? ਐਸੋ ਭਾਉ ਬਿਦਰ ਕੋ ਦੇਖਿਓ ਓਹੁ ਗਰੀਬੁ ਮੋਹਿ ਭਾਵੈ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ ऐसो भाउ बिदर को देखिओ ओहु गरीबु मोहि भावै ॥१॥ रहाउ ॥ Aiso bẖā▫o biḏar ko ḏekẖi▫o oh garīb mohi bẖāvai. ||1|| rahā▫o. I have seen such love from Bidur, that the poor man is pleasing to me. ||1||Pause|| ਹਸਤੀ ਦੇਖਿ ਭਰਮ ਤੇ ਭੂਲਾ ਸ੍ਰੀ ਭਗਵਾਨੁ ਨ ਜਾਨਿਆ ॥ हसती देखि भरम ते भूला स्री भगवानु न जानिआ ॥ Hasṯī ḏekẖ bẖaram ṯe bẖūlā sarī bẖagvān na jāni▫ā. Gazing upon your elephants, you have gone astray in doubt; you do not know the Great Lord God. ਤੁਮਰੋ ਦੂਧੁ ਬਿਦਰ ਕੋ ਪਾਨ੍ਹ੍ਹੋ ਅੰਮ੍ਰਿਤੁ ਕਰਿ ਮੈ ਮਾਨਿਆ ॥੧॥ तुमरो दूधु बिदर को पान्हो अम्रितु करि मै मानिआ ॥१॥ Ŧumro ḏūḏẖ biḏar ko pānĥo amriṯ kar mai māni▫ā. ||1|| I judge Bidur's water to be like ambrosial nectar, in comparison with your milk. ||1|| ਖੀਰ ਸਮਾਨਿ ਸਾਗੁ ਮੈ ਪਾਇਆ ਗੁਨ ਗਾਵਤ ਰੈਨਿ ਬਿਹਾਨੀ ॥ खीर समानि सागु मै पाइआ गुन गावत रैनि बिहानी ॥ Kẖīr samān sāg mai pā▫i▫ā gun gāvaṯ rain bihānī. I find his rough vegetables to be like rice pudding; the night of my life passes singing the Glorious Praises of the Lord. ਕਬੀਰ ਕੋ ਠਾਕੁਰੁ ਅਨਦ ਬਿਨੋਦੀ ਜਾਤਿ ਨ ਕਾਹੂ ਕੀ ਮਾਨੀ ॥੨॥੯॥ कबीर को ठाकुरु अनद बिनोदी जाति न काहू की मानी ॥२॥९॥ Kabīr ko ṯẖākur anaḏ binoḏī jāṯ na kāhū kī mānī. ||2||9|| Kabeer's Lord and Master is joyous and blissful; He does not care about anyone's social class. ||2||9|| Anyone ever heard this relationship before?
  3. Only with maharaj's kirpa can a tabla player stay in beat while giving saath to the kirtaneea. In modern times, i've only seen 1 jatha where the tabla player can give full saath (Bhai Gurtar Singh, Hoshiarpur Wale)
  4. Thanks a lot veerji. My follow up question would be, when Guru Nanak Dev Ji went to go get gurbani of Bhagat Namdev Ji, is there any gurdwara in that area or is it just the mandar?
  5. Fateh Ji. With Waheguru's kirpa, I am finally going to get a chance to go to Punjab and also visit Sachkhand Hazur Sahib. I have a couple of questions for anyone who has been fortunate enough to visit there. 1. How far is Gurdwara Nanak Chira from there? 2. How far is Bhagat Namdev's bhagti area where the mandar turned around. Also, if anyone has been there, is there anything to see there except for the mandar?
  6. Veer ji, dass has 17 of his tracks but i cant seem to find that one? I have "Tere Chaal Sohavee" if thats the one you meant? If you want veer ji i will type up the tracks i have of his and you can tell me if its one of them? Bhai Kuljeet Singh Ji (Kenya Wale ) - Satgur Mera Wadd Samratha Really really peacefull!! http://www.4shared.com/file/79285463/4c9b8...d_Samratha.html Bhai Kuljeet Singh Ji - Bavjal Bin Sabde Kyo Taariye http://www.4shared.com/file/79287130/42725...yo_Taariye.html Bhai Kuljeet Singh Ji - Tu Beant Koi Virla Jaanei http://www.4shared.com/file/79289133/7df10...rla_Jaanei.html Bhai Kuljeet Singh Ji - Tu Beant Koi Virl\ Jaanei Fateh, That would be very appreciated ji.
  7. Veer ji, Do you have any recordings of Bhai Harcharan Singh Khalsa, aside from the couple floating around on the internet? In particular i'm looking for a recording that used to be on the radio all the time when I was younger titled "Tera Thaan Suhava".
  8. Respected Brother or Sister, See that is the thing, anyone and i mean anyone can do kirtan in Raag all it requires is a little effort, its like anyone can do or has the capability of doing nitnem but it requiers effort and commitment of getting up in the morning. As for you second point, i would rather not do comercial kirtan than do avagya of my Satgurus hukkam and do manmat and serve my swarth. Fateh Ji, If I have this right, you believe it is manmat to do kirtan in any other way besides gurmat keertan? I find that hard to fathom. Reciting gurbani is reciting gurbani.
  9. Fateh Ji, Some of you have completely missed the boat on this. This is not a raag vs non-raag debate or gurmat keertan vs anything else. My biggest issue here with Sodhi the keertaniya is that he does his kachi bani "Amritsar val jaande rayeo" or whatever and his stage fills up with money. The sangat loves that kind of kavita and always open up their wallets. Keertaniya realize this and are exposing this by continuing to perform kachi bani that they've written themselves to increase their own profit. There are thousands of shabads and lots more vaara by Bhai Gurdas Ji that these keertaniya can perform. Why do they write and perform their own kachi bani??? I do think it's a problem and I will certainly bring this up with Davinder Singh and let you guys know what he says. That's the issue. I hope I haven't offended anyone.
  10. Its not only Devinder Singh Sodhi only, there are many more like, so called Baba Ranjit Singh Dhadrian Kalan, Harbans Singh Jagadhari, Joginder Singh Chandan and many more. Basic problem is no one follows Gurbani, as Gurbani says "Satgur binaa hor kachi hai bani, bani tan kachi satgur bajhon hor kachi bani. Kehnde kache, sunde kache, kachi aakh vakhani..........." "Satgur ki risey hor kach pich bolde, se kudiar kude jhad padiye......" If the sangat doesn't goes to listen these Raagis or Babas, they will stop them selves. If you want, go and talk to him politely stating what Gurbani says. One person talks then another, then another, then they will realise it. Chardikala Good post. thanks. If we were all to do Kirtan in accordance to Gurmat i.e. Gurmat Sangeet we wouldnt be in this predicament now would we? You obviously have your own agenda, but I can kind of see where you are coming from. But, not everyone is capable of learning gurmat sangeet. Anyways, my biggest problem with these raagi doing kachi bani is because of the obvious profit margin they're after.. People here in Canada are very lost and don't have an understanding of bani. Thus, when they hear these "kavita" they open up their wallets and these raagi's know that. Respected Bhai Saab, Everyone has the capability of learning Gurmant Sangeet, because everyone has the capability to follow Gurmat. Next thing you will see people saying, oh its acceptable not to learn Gurbani because not everyone has the capability to learn it. And yes Gurmat Sangeet is on the same spectrum as Gurbani because Gurmat Sangeet is an intergral part of Sikhi. Regards, Gurmat Sangeet We've had this raag vs non-raag debate too many times on here so I hope this doesn't start up again. Gurbani is gurbani...I don't see a problem with citing gurbani on a harmonium.

  12. Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa, Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh gur sangat ji. I am really disturbed that professional raagi continue to go against Akal Thakat humamnama and perform kachi bani through recordings and on stage. There are thousands upon thousands of shabads from our guru's, bhagats, and Bhai Gurdaas Ji yet, some of these raagis still wont stop. I'm mostly posting this because Davinder Singh Sodhi is in my city right now and he performed kachi bani in maharaj hazoori. I really want to approach him about it but, don't want to be rude at the same time so i'm not sure what to say. What can be done to stop this madness, or am I making a big deal out of this for nothing???
  13. From what i've heard of most hazoori ragis at Darbar sahib, they will recycle through the same # of shabads in a given time period. So they likely did those shabads at other points in August as well. I'll look when I get time.
