well i rememeber when i was at the gurdwara on new years eve, and they always have a really long ardas when the new year starts, and there was 1 really old lady behind me and she could only stand up for about half of it, she had to sit for the rest...i personally don't think there was anything wrong with that.

i used to sit and do my ardaas all 3 times a day, but a bujurg baba ji told me that ardaas should be done standing up and not sitting down. i have heard a katha where bhia sahib ji was describing how to stand up in an ardaas. he said while standing, your ankle should be joined, your toe should be joined and your legs should be straight and hands straight and joined together and not fingers stucking with each other.

since then i always try to do ardaad standing up. it may depend upon physical body as well, if body doesnt allow you to stand for a long time, then i personally think there is no harm even if someone sits down.

also, remember, its not a bajjr kurehat to do ardaas while sitting down.

bhul chuk maaf.

to respect bani, please never lie down while doing shri kirtan sohela. please always sit and do the paath and standup and do the ardaas, as we always do in any gurughar.

Sometimes I'm so tired that if I lie down to do Sohila Sahib I start falling asleep halfway through it
