i think people misunderstand yoga it is not bad it can be good but daas was just saying about the breathing things we shud be jaaping naam with every breath instead of just breathing one should use those breaths 2 jaap naam aswell

naam bina sabh koor gaaluee hoshheeaa

without naaam everything is false and worthless

Why do u wanna mix Gurbani with yoga? If yoga is simply for exercizing then let it be. What about the rest of our exercizes, are we wasting time cuz we're not jaaping naam when we're swimming or going for a run?

With each breath and morsel of food, do not forget the Guru, the Embodiment of Fulfillment

saas graas har naam samaal

With every breath and every morsel of food, cherish the Lord's Name.

saas giraas japahu jap rasanaa neeth neeth gun gaaeeai

With every breath and morsel of food, meditate, and chant with your tongue, continually, each and every day; sing the Glorious Praises of the Lord

simran should be done 24/7 no matter what u do whether is its runnning doing sports etc...

mahraj has told us to be atheir phair naam abyaashi

if u dont think that is possible then thats up to u people

Then why are u singling out yoga as if people dont remember God when doing yoga?

yoga has been proven to help release stress and cure ilness, however that is were it should end. Mixing sikhi like gurbani with yoga is not good. There are in fact certain types of forms of yoga that are not goood for sikhs since they may release certain unhealthy energys.

waheguru jee ka khalsa, waheguru jee kee fateh

gurujee tells us to do simran 24/7 (only happens with guru jees grace)

if you are doing naam abhiyaas aath pehar, then you must be doing it whilst doing yoga.

waheguru jee ka khalsa, waheguru jee kee fateh!!

Look at the American Sikhs.....a real and true generation of chardhi kala singhs and singhnees who do Kundalini Yoga and have also achieved great spirutual heights.

What's the problem with holding an asana (posture) and saying satnam or waheguru? Shame on you tunnel visioned folks. Besides, your naam should be on auto during every second regardless of what you do....and yes, even during yoga.

    • 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!! 
    • Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi Kalan uses simple Punjabi.
    • 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.
