could you elaborate/specify/refine benti exactly for what ,as there are different shabads

to help in different types of benti .there can be benti for amrit ,benti for naam and simran ,for asking forgiveness ,benti for strength and hope ,benti for pain to be lifted ,benti for mercy ,benti to have a vision of God and Guru ,benti for saadsangat ,benti for satsangat ,benti for chardikela ,for victory ,for sewa ,benti to be made into a param hans ,benti for gurmat ,for gurbani ,benti for mukti ,benti for yur heart and mind to be enlightened etc etc etc .so the finer u specify it the cybersangat can help identify exact shabads for the particular request you have .

2 very good books to help you ,which give a lot of quotes from Gurbani relating to benti are ;

a)ARDAS SHAKTI by raghbir singh bir

b)THE MIRACLE OF ARDAS by sant baba surain singh and saint scholar naranjan singh

(both available i english)

alternatively ,look into AMRIT KIRTAN gutka and the first few sections are all benti shabads drawn from gurbani under varius main and sub topics of different types of bentis .

general benti tuks(short verses you can use ),include

a)sagal duar ko chad ke gheo tuharo duar ,bahe gahe ki laj ash gobind daas tohar

b)din darad dukh bhenjena ghath ghath nath enath ,saran tuhari aayo nanak ke prabh sath

c)dendauth bendhen ahnkh bar skl kela semrath,dolan te rakho prabhu nanak deh karh hath

d)entire benti chaupai path

benti has 2 aspects the content of your request ,as well as the actual asking .consider GOD/GURU as omnipotent/omniscient/omnipotent and with total faith ,''drill '' yourself with wotever it takes into HIS presence ,then make yur request .even if you dont know gurbani ,ask deep in yur heart in your own words whatever your need is ,and ask it from GOD/GURU

IN HIS PRESENCE .cry if need be like a little baby with a million tears .u MUST have this sense that you are BEING HEARD .a good idea is to tag yur bentis in yr daily prayers like ardas after /during naam simran or after nitnem etc .

if all else fails you could get a gursikh ,like a giani/ragi/amritdhari singh/bibi to be with you in your ardas and help take a hukumnama afters for the answer .some ppl even invite 5 amritdari sikhs to their house ,fed them ,etc everyone sits down together ,does a benti chaupai ,then one of the invited 5 piaras does an ardas coleectively with everyone present .

a)for mercy conduct a search on srigranth .org using the

words such as kirpa,bakshish,mehar,deya,meya,kirpa drishti.

it will result in a lot of phrases from gurbani for these words which generally mean mercy .

shabads for this is for example are ''kirpa kero din ke daate .mera gun avgun na bicharo koi ''

or ''asi kheteh bahuth kemavdeh aanth na paravar ........'' or '' hum sar din deyal na tum sar ....''

or ''suno benintia suami mere ram ,kot pradh bhreh ,bhi tere chere ram''

b)for pyar search relevant words for phrases in srigranth .org related to love such as

prem,prembhagat,bhagti,mohabbat ,ishk,bhao,pyaar,preet etc .example shabads are like ''mu lalan sio preeet bni......'' or ''sachi preeet hum tum sio jori ,madho tum na toro to hum nehi tore''

c)for peace search words like sukh ,thir etc .examples are ''jagat jelenda rakh leh apni kirpa dhaar'',or '' aageh sukh mere mita .....'' or ''thir ghar bhesoh harjan piareh...''.also check out 1st few astpadis of sukhmani sahib .

    • Umm, that's totally irrational, bro. There are plenty of prakash-dara Singhs in Punjab (less than we'd like, but still plenty). No one cares that you are sabat soorat. It isn't 1986. You can walk around in chola, kurta-pajama, or jeans. Whatever. If you want the look @dallysingh101 is referring to, just go into a cheap clothing shop (not a Western-style mall) and buy some shirts for 250 rupees or a track suit for 2000 rupees. You'll get the cheap stuff made in some sweatshop in Bombay.
    • The Mind is Jyot Saroop (Waheguru), but the mind is under the influence of five evils… Through Naam Simran( Rememberance), the mind will begin to detach from evil, and get back to its original form ( MANN TU JYOT SAROOP HEH)… Until the mind breaks free from the five evils, one will go through the cycle of paap and punn….which leads to Karma… Naam Simran destroys past karma, and prevents new karma coming into fruition… I did this, I did that… This non realisation of the Jyot Saroop gives rise to paap and Punn, which in turn gives birth to suffering and misery…
    • 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!!
