Nietnam - Which Ones Do You Do Everyday?

[jpsingh2]

I personally do Jap Ji Sahib and Jap Sahib in the morning

and Anand Sahib, Rehras Sahib, and Kiertan Sohila at night.

I know your supposed to do Anand Sahib in the morning but most times I end up doing it this way.

I'm curious to know which ones you all do and at what time.

[GuptUnknown]

Jap Ji Sahib

Jaap Sahib

Tav Parsad Swayiye

Choupai Sahib

Anand Sahib

Rehras Sahib

Kirtan Sohila

The Bani's above are mandatory for Amritdhari Sikhs.

and here is other bania that most people do alongside their normal 5 morning bania.

most people do shabad hajaare after their japji sahib / with their nitnem, as its such an amazing bani.

[MokhamSingh]

In addition to your Nitnem one should also do SriSukhmaniSahib. Guritihas is full of examples of the importance of SriSukhmaniSahib. All the great Gurmukhs of the panth did SriSukhmaniSahib as part of their Nitnem.

nitnem is the 5 bania. ... and reheraas n sohela.

you can increase these 5 as much as you want. but these 5 can never be reduced.

simples.

[jpsingh2]

I have slightly increased my nietnam time and should be adding Sukhmani Sahib soon as well. One interesting thing I read in a book about Shri Guru Gobind Singh Je is that the Sikhs didn't do Nietnam/Prayers in the day only in the morning and at night. What is up with the short and long rehras where did this originate from?

[alias]

with reheaas. there are 5 parts to it

so dar, so purakh, benti chaupi, anand sahib, and mundavani.. each part can be extended as much as u want, but never reduced. (as always). its good to have a base.. btw, yes, bani is good to do lots. but it guruG has said, that within one matra of gurbani, we can tar, then, its best to spent the time in meditation on each akhar. :D so just by doing lots of banis, its not the answer. the veechaar in the bani, is the thing. and its all on the shabad. anhad shaabad, aka dargaahi keertan. the 5 bania have so much power, and the 5 sections in reheraas. but sumtimes, wen we start in amrit (after becoming amritdhari), or start doing the 5 bania, we cannot access the power.. hence, we need to do alot more bania. slowly, the power will be felt.

this is the whole reason we do shabad jaap of a shabad in bani.. or in keertan.. in bani, sumtimes, pl say its good to do 40 / 41 etc days... thas cuz thats the time that it shud take you to get that bani inside yourself. or, thats the time that the bani takes to reach as deep as it can inside you. whatever level your avastha (spiritual level) is on. partakh mahapurash are a different story.. they are one with god, and are the saroop of shabad.. but this, sum ppl myt not understand totally.. but its ok.. this bit dont matter all that much..

my point is, doing lots of bani helps. but this doesnt mean that if sum 1 just do the 5 bania, they are less than ppl who do lots of bania. however, doing bani, gives you gifts that must be treated with respect. and thus, these gifts are to be used to further oneself in their avastha. and depending on how much u vibrate with the shabad, the vibration lasts xyz period of time.. if your guru G is thert with you, well u defo know that the vibration will be there. and never ending so yh.. most prob the reason why they dodnt do prayers int he day time.. or, they were just in battels :PP and, the point that we do bani in morning, is that so we ahave the rest of the day free to get on with what we are supposed to do.. as in, go along with the world, but not get into it. kamaa the universe, but be ready to giv it back to guru G.. >sub saump gur ko <
