Sleeping


Recommended Posts

Actually science says that they are unsure why we need sleep. When rats were deprived of sleep they died much quicker, and when they did tests on humans staying awake, they started to get delirious. However i there is some people i know of who never sleep and remain in constant meditation. I don't know them personally but this is true. They also don't need to eat or drink in this state. It is a higher state of c onsciousnes. Attain this state and you can do abyaas all day long.

Air is the Guru, Water is the Father, and Earth is the Great Mother of all. - Ang 8

We are bound to the mother earth. Of the earth, we arise and are an ensemble of mostly water, air, and cellular flesh. As we are bound to the cycle of birth and death, so are we bound to the daily cycle of day and night.

Research suggests that there are a variety of important things that occur at night. Firstly our brain waves switch predominantly to the lowest delta frequencies:

Meditation is almost at the level of Delta waves. Those who arise early and sincerely meditate, they can make up for hours of lost sleep with deep meditation.

The brain waves are not the only thing that alter at night.

There is a variety of re-dox systems that are enhanced at night, as well as neuro-endocrine axis. The body repairs DNA, musculature, nervous system, amongst other things. The body is in a constant state of growth, breakdown, and repair (sustenance).

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
