Forgive me for this but it is a quick post to make the sangat aware of a book DTF have published for me

A small book on the basic and intricate meanings of the Sri Raagmala has been released in the UK and is now available from DTF book store in Birmingham for £2.99.

Just thought i would let the sangat know in case anyone is interested

Benti to all the sangat.

The steek is absolutely amasing, having read through most of it a few months ago, i can say its brilliant. Im not going into the debates over gurbani, the steek dosnt go into debates or anything. Bhai Sahib Kamalpreet Singh (Kam) has translated the arth of Sri Maan Sant Giani Gurbachan Singh Jee Khalsa Bhindranvale as the spiritual arths and go into depth of other Vidvaan Gursikhs arths aswell.

Its an absolute must and a brilliant read and a eye opener of the deeper arths of gurbani.

Below is the front cover of the book.

The Book Shall Be for sale At Baba Thakur Singh Jees Barsi in willenhall

Otherwise purchase it from DTF Books in handsworth, get it on your reading list and be amased.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Brilliant seva Kam1825 veerji. It’s about time the meanings explained by Mahapursh on Sri Raagmala Sahib Ji have been brought to the wider English speaking world.

BhForce people tend to appreciate things more if they make some effort to attain them.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh

Seriously Benti To the Sangat...

Do not turn this thread into a raagmaala debate, please purchase the book from DTF or at the Barsi this year and read through and and make your own mind up, personally having read through it i thought Kam did a great job of the translation, its not easy translating deep arth into english...

Benti to everyone to purchase the book and let the wider sangat know.

In the future im sure Kam would put it up on the net, but for the meantime buy the paper version.

The Book is dedicated to Sant Hari Singh Randhave Valeh

It will be online, I have decided to put it into print as then those who actually want to read it will go out and purchase it. there is loads online that people download and never read so for that reason i wanted it printed.

The books are non profit and for sale at cost price.

    • Been so much nindya and attacking Shastarvidiya since the 2000s, however if we look at gatka now it's still mostly as poor and poorly taught as it was back then, still morris dancing moves and still behzti moves in BBC shows about sikhi and vaisakhi. If people were going to attack shastarvidiya, wouldn't have made sense to improve gatka instead and make it more effective? Additionally, the Nihang Singh presence has improved greatly now, and the cracks within the the SGPC and affiliated jatha jathebandis are showing more greatly as panth becomes more knowledgable with dasam bani and itihas day-by-day, so much gyaan which was lost within panjabi sikhs during colonial times. In the 2000s, the groups were able to talk down this bani and  gyaan by associating it with  RSS and hindus, brahminwaad etc. Not working so well now is it? However with gyaan it would be also good for us to try and preserve our martial arts and keertan vidiya as well! More and more crazy keertan videos are coming out from jatha members that are being made fun of and making sangat annoyed and upset, on tiktok and instagram reels.

Being from Punjab, almost every Sardaarji i know (amritdhari or not) sleeps/showers with their hair uncovered. I don't think Guru Sahib asked us to wear Dastar to sleep and I don't think it is in SRM.   The idea of "keski being worn to sleep" is cos in Bollywood films (Bachna Ae Haseeno) Sikh characters usually tie a gol parna when sleeping since the actor's usually Hindu. So they gotta cover his head somehow or he'd have cut hair. Same reason Diljit wore a pagg to bed in the El Sueno vid. Only time they didn't do that was in Gadar with Sunny Deol which just looked odd tbh   What in the world? What sikh or even a decent human would base their knowledge of their culture or religion on a movie industry, that too Bollywood?  Believe me, no sikh ever said, I must cover my head becasue an actor did so in a movie. I've been doing it all wrong, I must start covering mh head because the sikh in that movie did.  Just because every panjabi and sardaar you know, does something, also doesn't make it right..  Follow the guru. And if you have a medical condition, then exemptions can be made.  Just admit it, because of my medical condition, I am not able to follow this rehit. Why are you getting everyone else to drop to your level?
    • Wasn't Guru Arjan Dev's martyrdom on amd always commemorated on 6th June? How come it was 30th May?  Just like 6th June 84, where the likes of Terrorists like Indira Gandhi chose to attack Darbar Sahib where many many innocent Sikhs would suffer, as they went to commemorate Martyrdom of Maharaj. 
    • best thing is to follow the Sikh Rehat Maryada and use common sense for gray areas. Anything outside of that's irrelevant tbh that code is what Guru Gobind Singh Ji and the 5 Pyaare agreed on when creating Amrit in 1699
