Concentration

[1469]

thankss TejiKaur sounds like wonderful advice..i feel much better with evryones lovely words of advice i feel that when i am swayed awy by other thoughts i can try a variety of things..and i tried what Kaljug Singh suggested that did really did workk..so im glad i finally have a solution not just one but manyyy yahhy!

[sikhsta]

step one is to make love well up

sometimes what i love to do and it gives so much rass is just keep repeating a tukh until it pierces inside

another idea is that if ur having trouble i remember the shabad by Bhai Gurdas Ji

Charan Sharan Gur ik paina jaiye chal satguru kot paina agay hoye lait hai

meaning if we take one step to the shelter of the Gurus feet the Guru will take kot steps towards us

in that shabad Bhai Gurdas Ji says that if we repeat Gods name even once eveytime we repeat it it will make Guru Ji love us more

think of this wen u cant concentrate with simran

keep japping naam and imagine Guru Jis infinate love 4 u increasing

than prem will well up insiide :)

Thats really good advice!

This garbage which goes through your mind goes through everyones! This is why we listen to the shabad Guru, to cut through our sub-conscious mind (things we think about but never act on).

Its perfectly normal, the more more you listen to bani, the more garbage you are cleaning. Your mind is a giant bin, like one of those industrial ones you see in the gurdwara, you need to clean every last part of it. So yes when you listen to bani and concentrate on your third eye point, garbage is going to come to your mind and Gurus mantra is going to cut through it like a sword!

Bhareaa hath payr tan day, panee dotay utras kay, moth paleethe kapar hoy thay saboon nee lae oh dhoe, bhareeia mat paapa kai sang, oh dopai navai kay rang!

Keep it up and clean that bin of yours!!!
