You have to practice. So at 1st get up at 6 no matter what and a few weeks later wake at 5 and after a month wake at 4 etc. until your at the point where you get up at the last {4th} quarter of the night. Remember it changes with the seasons so in the winter the night is longer than in the summer etc. but the time isnt too drastically changed.

But Amritvela is meaning that you wake at the last{4th} quarter of the night and not at a specific time like lets say some say 3am and some say 4am but it has to do with the night being divided up into 4 quarters

blah blah balh enough of my yacking

Tottaly agree with bhai sahib you have to slowly progress with amritvela is u stright away try waking up at 2 or 3 it will not work out

we should try spend as much time japping naam as we can

immense japping of naam will clean our mind and make it pure and utimatly take us closer to akal purak

with kirpa one will have so much pyaar and thirst to jaap naam that they will start sacrificing more and more sleep for naam and will begin to sleep less their have been gursikhs that used to just sleep half and hour or hour a day n rest of the ngiht would be absorbed in naam abiyaaas

I only sleep 3-4 hours a night, and 5 hours feels like I slept in.

yeh 4/5 hours of sleep is more than enough

plus 1hr of meditation is equal to 8hours sleep some one told me once and it make sense we only get tired because our mind wonder it goes through many thoguts throughout the day which leaves us tired

we sleep our mind does not wonder as much which recharges or battries

were as wen doing naam abyaas one on focus in waheguru and stops the mind from wondering which is equal to a good sleep

It's all about conditioning; keep the same sleep schedule every day and you won't feel tired. Like Pritam Singh said, when you sleep in on the weekends you feel more tired, in fact.

When you sleep through Amritvela GuruJi says you are dead while still alive.

A real Gursikh will never sleep through A.vela.

God is there everyday but hears your prayer more clearly at Amritvela, and is there every morning even on weekends.

If you feel tired during the day then take a nap its not against the law. Just dont sleep for a long time or you then traded your sleep during the day for your sleep at night.

what about people who sleep during hte day and wake up at night? or insomniacs? Amrit Vela means when you wake up and nothing else is going on.. so technically the middle of the night (when nothing outside is going on) and you JUST woke up refreshed is considered amrit vela

i've never heard of this fourth quarter thing before, where'd you get that from?

There is Gursikh and there is Manmukh. There is no real or fake of either, it's quite simple.

Obviously you dont understand.

"""""""""what about people who sleep during hte day and wake up at night? or insomniacs?""""""""

That means they dont wake at Amritvela. or live backwards when you should sleep during the night, insomniacs should do some labor that will use energy. I know some insomniacs who after doing hard work they sleep just fine, so they are always looking to do hard work so they feel better when they sleep.

""""""so technically the middle of the night (when nothing outside is going on) and you JUST woke up refreshed is considered amrit vela"""""

No so "specifically" Amritvela is the last quarter of the night. Good justifacation of twisting it for a manmukh way of thinking of it.

"""""""i've never heard of this fourth quarter thing before, where'd you get that from?""""""""

Go and research it. Youve already said the opposite of what I said so Ill let you go and learn for yourself or remain justified.

"""""""There is Gursikh and there is Manmukh. There is no real or fake of either, it's quite simple."""""""

Its quite simple a real Sikh will never miss Amritvela and be lazy enough to sleep through it. A manmukh would think even one time wont matter. You could call yourself a Gurmukh and not follow rehat and be considered a moorakh with a manmukh way of thinking.

If I say black, youll say white. Do what you want, think what you want.

    • was researching this and came back to this thread. Also found an older thread:    
    • Net pay after taxes. If you don't agree, think about this: If you were a trader and started off in China with silk that cost 100 rupees and came to India, and you had to pay total 800 rupees taxes at every small kingdom along the way, and then sold your goods for 1000 rupees, you'd have 100 rupees left, right? If your daswandh is on the gross, that's 100 rupees, meaning you have nothing left. Obviously, you owe only 10% of 100, not 10% of 1000. No, it's 10% before bills and other expenses. These expenses are not your expenses to earn money. They are consumption. If you are a business owner, you take out all expenses, including rent, shop electricity, cost of goods sold, advertising, and government taxes. Whatever is left is your profit and you owe 10% of that.  If you are an employee, you are also entitled to deduct the cost of earning money. That would be government taxes. Everything else is consumption.    
    • No, bro, it's simply not true that no one talks about Simran. Where did you hear that? Swingdon? The entire Sikh world talks about doing Simran, whether it's Maskeen ji, Giani Pinderpal Singh, Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi, or Sants. So what are you talking about? Agreed. Agreed. Well, if every bani were exactly the same, then why would Guru ji even write anything after writing Japji Sahib? We should all enjoy all the banis. No, Gurbani tells you to do Simran, but it's not just "the manual". Gurbani itself also has cleansing powers. I'm not saying not to do Simran. Do it. But Gurbani is not merely "the manual". Reading and singing Gurbani is spiritually helpful: ਪ੍ਰਭ ਬਾਣੀ ਸਬਦੁ ਸੁਭਾਖਿਆ ॥  ਗਾਵਹੁ ਸੁਣਹੁ ਪੜਹੁ ਨਿਤ ਭਾਈ ਗੁਰ ਪੂਰੈ ਤੂ ਰਾਖਿਆ ॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ The Lord's Bani and the words are the best utterances. Ever sing hear and recite them, O brother and the Perfect Guru shall save thee. Pause. p611 Here Guru ji shows the importance of both Bani and Naam: ਆਇਓ ਸੁਨਨ ਪੜਨ ਕਉ ਬਾਣੀ ॥ ਨਾਮੁ ਵਿਸਾਰਿ ਲਗਹਿ ਅਨ ਲਾਲਚਿ ਬਿਰਥਾ ਜਨਮੁ ਪਰਾਣੀ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ The mortal has come to hear and utter Bani. Forgetting the Name thou attached thyself to other desires. Vain is thy life, O mortal. Pause. p1219 Are there any house manuals that say to read and sing the house manual?
    • All of these are suppositions, bro. Linguists know that, generally, all the social classes of a physical area speak the same language, though some classes may use more advanced vocabulary. I'm talking about the syntax. That is, unless the King is an invader, which Porus was not. When you say Punjabi wasn't very evolved, what do you mean? The syntax must have been roughly the same. As for vocabulary, do you really think Punjabis at the time did nothing more than grunt to express their thoughts? That they had no shades of meaning? Such as hot/cold, red/yellow/blue, angry/sweet/loving/sad, etc? Why must we always have an inferiority complex?
    • I still think about that incident now and then, just haven't heard any developments regarding what happened, just like so many other things that have happened in Panjab!
