hanje paji happens to me sometimes too.

Just lack of not gettin enuf sleep maybe or not doing neuf physical activity.

I suppose if life is kept in balance then yawning, tiredness etc can lessen.

Just a thought....if me made sense :lol: @ heheeehe

I don't think it has to do with lack of sleep, unless you don't get your regular sleep and you are sleepy before you start doing padth. Its more mental than anything, because if it was sleep then why doesn't it happen when we are talking with someoen or watching t.v. It is just another trap set by our mind.

Next time you begin to yawn, become totally aware of your yawning, and seperate yourself from the yawning. It might sound wierd, but trust me it work. The moment your mouth begins to open, become aware that you are yawning and take a step back, don't force yourself not to yawn, but just observe your yawning. You will know you are observing correctly when the need to yawn dissappears but your mouth will remain open as if nothing was happening.

But let us not confuse the need to yawn as a function of the body with the Laziness/Yawning that we feel during Simran/Jap etc. If you are tired, then you should be tired before your Jap as well, not just begin to feel tired as you start. The mind is cunning.

I think it might be because u lot mite be quite active ppl, and u cant really sit down for long periods so u's should start to get more physical activities done during the day.

Yeah i agree penji the balance in life could lesson the yawning.

One suggestion could be try thinking to close your mouth and close ir (i dunno how that works but it could work)

Or try stop thinking of yawning!

Or trying going out to get more oxygen as one theory says that it mite bcoz of the lack of Oxygen- however i think its been disproven (sed on anova site) but you never know it mite work.

WJKK, WJKF,

Waheguru...

I had the same problem as well, I would yawn during Nitnem, I would be sooo upset because I didn't want to yawn throughout communicating with Waheguru Ji, so I decided to start Naam Simran before Nitnem for about 15 minutes, my yawning had stopped. pray.gif Waheguru

But yeh deep breath can be a possibility...

    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!!

    • Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
