Vairag Shatak Pt 3 {English}

[MokhamSingh]

Guru Pyari Satsangat Jeo, WaheguruJiKaKhalsaWaheguruJiKeFateh.

This is the second opening manglacharan of this Granth. Please note that Bharthari Ji are in fact praising Waheguru {the creator} in their poetry. This will become more and more apparent in the subsequent translations. The purpose of this translation is not to eulogise the deities but the core message being sent in the poetry of this Granth. There are about 285 pages all in all and as we read/translate more and more it will become clear that Bharthari Ji are extolling the virtues of Prabhu {Waheguru} simran with complete and utter vairag {renunciation of maya}.

Please forgive the shortcomings and do ardas that we can become more attached to Naam Simran. Bhul chuk maaf Khalsa Jio.

“Jih Ses Ki Sejh Pah Sann Kioyo,

Padh Komal Ko Malti Kamla Hi.

Kar Meh Darr Chakkar Saroj Gaddha,

Prighpadh Garay Srik Angadh Bahi.

Jipaadh Ke Vaar Soh Char Bichar Dharoy,

Thriprar Sadha Sirmahi.

Once upon a time the Rikhis contemplated doing the preekhia {testing} of the Devtay {deities}. With everyone’s salah {agreement} Prighu Ji set off. First they went to Bramha who greeted Prighu Ji in a very hankar barhia {egoistic} manner. Then they went to Shiv Ji who also greeted them with Krodh {anger}. Finally they went to Vishnu Ji and upon seeing him asleep he kicked him but in return Vishnu Ji held the feet of Prighu and said “Bhagwan ! My sareer {body} is kahtor {hard}, did it hurt your komal {fragile} sareer {body} in any way?" Upon hearing this Prighu Ji was pleased immensely and thus said "wadhay de wadhay hi jigray hunday hunn {only the mighty possess mighty jigray {tolerance threshold} , you are truly the sirtaj {jewel in the crown} of all devtay {deities}. If you are not niraz {upset} with me then allow the my footprint to embedded on your sareer {body} eternally, and whichever avtar {reincarnation} your dharan {form} that chinh {sign/symbol} should remain intact the name of which is "Prighpaad" or "Prighlatt". The visthar poorbak varnan {detailed in-depth coverage} can be read in "DassamGuru Granth Sahib steek 3rd bhaag {volume}.

The mala=rosary containing these six pearls are collectively known as Bejanti Mala.

Doojah {second}-The mala=rosary made from the six types of flowers found in the Bann=jungle/forest which dangles below the knees. Paadh ko vaach=the water of the feet, when Vishnu adopted the avtar {incarnation} of Bavan it is then that Brahma washed their {Vishnu's} feet and placed the water in kamundal {water container} which famously came to be known as Gangha and later was sent to mat lok {planet earth} upon the request of Bhagirthi which Shiv Ji carried on their head.

Triprar=Shiv Ji. Upon the slaying of tripur daent {demon} Shiv Ji became known as Triprar. Visthar sehat parsangh {in-depth account} can be seen in Dassam Granth steek bhaag {volume} 2nd under Rudhr Avtar.

<banned word filter activated>=Iss tara dah=like this. . Urr Bhitar=in the hirdah=heart. Bhav bheet=the darr=scare/horror of janam maran=births/deaths.

Arth {meaning}-The one who sleeps on Sheshnag Sehja {bed} and the komal {fragile} charan {feet} Lashmi is massaging. The one who has sunkh {sea shell like instrument}, chakkar gadha {spherical long handled weapon} in the hand. The chinh {sign/symbol} of Prighu's charan {foot} , the garland of Bejanti mala adorns the neck , and wears the Bauhatta on the arms. The pavittar {pure} charnah da pani {water from the washed feet} adorns the head of Shiv Ji perpetually. Whosoever places the dhian {focus} then they have lost the fear of births and deaths in their heart.

REDRUM veerji, I think it would be better jeo if we concentrate on the morals behind the story instead? thanks!

[REDRUM]

I'm just praising waheguru's sargun saroop.. Is that against the forums rules, if so I am sorry...

[.- Prabhjot Singh -.]

Ok, well Sikhs not do that sort of Sargun 'worship' and its fine if u didnt mean it in that sense

[REDRUM]

Technically we do, I was listening to sant Jagjit singh's audio's today and he was saying that bowing down to sri guru granth sahib ji, doing peta of teg in prashad is a form of sargun worship. Doing mata tekna is a form of sargun worship.

[REDRUM]

Have you had partak darshan of guru ji?

If he gave you darshan would you not bow down to him and touch his feet.. This is sargun worship as well

All I will say is whatever isht (desire) you have for e.g. say you think of guru nanak dev ji the most. Wahguru will come in that saroop.. For others who have isht in vishnu maharaj then waheguru will come in that saroop to give darshan.

This goes more deeper but you can read stuff in books saying sargun worship isn't allowed but have you asked guru ji yourself what did guru ji say... Have you asked brahmgianis yourself what did they say?... Then tell me if sargun worship isn't allowed...

[.- Prabhjot Singh -.]

I get darshan of my Shabad Guru everyday jeo and im lucky to be able to touch his feet too, but im sorry i dont touch Vishnu Ji's feet or Shiv Ji's Feet or Brahma Ji's feet for that matter, neither do i have any longing for that. For me, my Shabad Guru Ji is the only "Sargun Isht" worth worshipping, no one else. Those belonging to other faiths may worship anyone they want, it doesn't bother me one bit.

PS: Im sorry Bhai Mokham Singh Ji for hijacking your beautiful thread, that was not my intention at all. :sad:
