BY THY GRACE KABITT

There are many Indras, many four-headded Brahmas, many incarnations of Krishna and many called Ram at His Gate.

There are many moons, many signs of Zodiac and many illuminating suns, there are many ascetics, stoics and Yogis consuming their bodies with austerity at His Gate.

There are many Muhammads, many adepts like Vyas, many Kumars (Kubers) and many belonging to high clans and many are called Yakshas.

All of them reflect upon Him, but none can know His limit, therefore they consider the Infinite Lord Supportless.5.257.

He is without Yantra (mystical diagram) and caste, without father and mother and presumed as the splash of Perfect beauty.

He is the Abode of Beauty and enlightener of intellect; He is the home of salvation and the dwelling of intelligence.

He is the god of gods and the Indiscriminate Transcendent Lord; He is the Deity of the demons and the tank of Purity.

The people of Bhakkhar, Kandhar, Gakkhar and Arabia and others living only on air remember Thy Name.

At all the places including Palayu in the East, Kamrup and Kumayun, wherever we go, Thou art there.

Thou art perfectly Glorious, without any impact of Yantras and mantras, O Lord ! The limits of Thy Praise cannot be known.14.266.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
