I think the words should be in different colors so people will stop complaining.

I saw your post in the other thread. I personally like that idea, its brilliant.

ok lets look at this. if bani is larivaar, then we really need to concentrate while reading, our dhyaan cannot go anywhere cause we will get lost. one needs santhya and practice to be able to read larivaar

anything else, be it spaces, be it colour coding, it makes it much easier to read, one doesn't need too much concentration.

The point of laridaar is that Guru Sahib did not split the words. We must take santhiya and speak with Gursikhs to learn where many words are broken. If you're changing the colours of "words" you're essentially breaking the words (pad-chhed) by a different means. The point is that no one can claim to know the "correct" pad-chhed and if we break the words in the wrong way, we are putting errors in Sri Guru Granth Sahib which is maha-beadbi.

Is the correct pad-chhed Ik Oankaar Sat Naam or is it Satnaam? Is it "Ik oankaar satgur parsaad" or is it "Ik Oankaar sat guprsaad" ?

Reading Lareedaar is not that difficult. It just takes some effort like anything else in life. Let's not interfere or tamper with what Gurbani.

Spending time on figuring out what is written doesn't necessarily mean a person is concentrating. Concentration should be on the meaning of the shabd. With colors the lareevaar saroop is maintained and person can read easily.

ps: these are just my views :D

Very true

The most important reason is its Hukam of Guru Sahib, who are we to make such changes.

Also Maharaj's Sarrops should be hand written, i feel this way the most satkaar of Mahraj possible can be maintained. Jews have always handwritten all Torahs from day one (Almost 3000 years ago), but the Tohra is just a scripture to them...Guru Granth Sahib Ji is our living Guru or atleast we claim so, how much satkaar have we really got. What the Jews dare not do in 3000years we have done in 4 century's.

Even today Jews have scores of people that dedicate their whole lives to hand write the Tohra, yet we're so lazy we just want printed saroops.

We as a panth have lost out ways, our true strength, our uniquness...we've lost our link to our Guru, lets revert back...we must revert back to Lareedar Saroops of Maharaj.

(Also, i personally think having different colours for each word in lareedar for defeats the objective of Lareedar...buh thats my opinion anyway)

I once tried to read the first pauri of Japji Sahib with each sentence as one long word.

I swear I felt such an effect that was more than if I had read the whole of Japji Sahib as I do.

Quick Q: Is it wrong to sing Bani when it's not a shabad?

Sometimes I read Japji sahib or Dukhbhanjan Sahib and I suddenly start singing the Bani in my head instead of reading it.
