Just an example that just hit me.. I heard that Sant Baba Thakur Singh ji's count or level of simran was beyond the roof, they had so much simran that everytime they would meet with another person, even say fateh or talk to another person, they (baba ji) would give that person some of their simran.

In this regard, your own simran is seva because it can rub off on other people and infact I've been told that those vibes can travel across the world to people you don't even know. The more simran you are doing, the more you are lightening the load of mother earth and all the paap that has been thrown on this world. You are doing seva for the whole world by doing simran because your simran rubs off on other people and you are spreading goodness, naam, purity, in the depth and darkest time of kaljug

Just like how Sant Baba Thakur Singh ji's bhagti had so much power and such a high extent, after they left to sach khand, it felt like the whole world heaved a big sigh "now what..." kind of thing - there was even a tsunami two days after, which just seemed krazy to me. Anyways, that's the effect that just one person can have. Also, Bhai Randhir Singh Ji because of their amazing levels of bhagti and super high avastha, easily rubbed off on almost everybody they met. The Singhs they were in jail with reached such high avasthas too (like being able to memorize akaal ustat in 2-3 days, reading so much bani) and a lot of it was because of Bhai Sahib's kamaaee rubbing off on these people and because Bhai Sahib was a total bhagat

One person's simran can really be seva, it can rub off on other people without you knowing it. A Gurmukh Singh who'se in love with naam can smile at a random gora and the gora spreads that love or light or vibe. The vibe keeps spreading and it started from naam

I also feel like seva that actually helps someone come onto this path is real true seva. Making someone else do simran for a second is amazing seva, so maybe katha, kirtan, organizing events, that is good seva for others. Joria di seva is good for us individually, same with bhandeya di seva (dishes). Bringing others into sikhi and bringing out the good of other people and creating more purity on this earth seems like an amazing seva to me, but we can only do such seva if maharaj allows us to. Someone told me just living in rehat is the best seva. Not sure if any of this made sense. bhul chuk maaf karna ji

      Starched Turbans - Topi Or Not Topi

      By ipledgeblue · Posted

      I know a Rajput Uncle who is a councillor and he wears the regular panjabi pagh. I wouldn't know he is a rajput because coul easily fit into any panjabi sikh or jatt background. But I can tell from his surname.  However when I look at proper Rajputs they were warriors and kings with those kind of paghs, similar to wearing dumallas or shahi turbans, some looked like Nihang Singhs! And Rajput background sikhs were involved in shastarvidiya training with Guru Hargobind and Guru Gobind Singh, as well as becoming their sikhs.    A rajput background sikh has double responsibilities to maintain turban and also training shastar. I think a Nihang Singh type look is more suitable for a sikh from Rajput background than any patiala shahi or average panjabi pagh

      Why are starched turbans hated?

      By ipledgeblue · Posted

      what kinda pagh are you tying that is taking more than 5 minutes? Actually puraatan maryada is to sit cross legged and cover your feet, tying pagh sitting down. The standing up may hurt your head.  Turban is not a hatm, many shaheediyaa have been given for the cost of this turban. MAryada is to tie fresh each time, and also twice a day. I kanga my kes twice a day and do keski twice a daym sometimes do my pagh or dumalla the 2nd time as well if I am going out. Just sit down, put a mirror in front and there should be not stress on your neck.

      Childrens' gatka wound incident in Slough last week - replacing shastarvidiya with gatka is poor and dangerous, very detrimental to the chardikala of panth!

      By ipledgeblue · Posted

      I was at the Slough Singh Sabha gurdwara last week. I think he was a teen, a tall young Singh got a deep gash wound on his arm from gatka, somewhere near his wrist. He was already on the floor when I entered through the langar hall, but I am sure he did it to himself not through a gatka "battle". I am unsure which shastar he used. I checked and the shastars seemed lightweight for the children. I picked up the khanda and it was light, not like a real khanda. I really want to emphasise that we should not be promoting twirly sword dancing as a "sikh martial art". This young Singh was hurting and gasping - why are we teaching twirling swords around in a way that may hurt oneself?? Promote shastarvidiya savai raksha and other martial arts which are about causing damage to the enemy. Why are we teaching this style of twirly gatka that's detrimental/harmful to ourselves and our allies? A twirly sword might hurt an ally in a battle, and doesn't allow allied warriors good movement around the sword twirler. This also reminds me during the summer, they were teaching some move to kids where you do some spins with the feet and then do a backwards bhangra type jump. I wasn't sure if this was a martial art or bhangra being taught?! Also at another gurdwara in another city/town in the midlands, the year before at a kids sikh club a guest gatka teacher was teaching basics to little kids by making then practice making infinity symbols with the gatka sticks!!! If we are showing off something ineffective and also harmful to the practitioner and allied warriors, then it's nothing to be proud off! If we are going to show our puraatan shastars off, we need to do it in a respectable manner not in this archaic colonial gatka era! The teaching is just as embarrassing as the last 2 decades and I don't understand why we want to promote it as a sikh martial art, to the sangat and to outsiders? the injuries are just not worth it for learning this modern gatka!    "Preserve Shastar Vidiya any way you can."(Rattan Singh Bhangu, Siri Guru Panth Parkash, ed.

      Bro, as stated above, you can do whatever you want. No one is snatching your starched turban, 2 weeks old, from your head. But what you want is for Guru's Singhs to call your turban in accordance with rehit. That's not going to happen. Also, why can't you simply tie your starched turban fresh every day? (Genuine question)
