The hardest part of getting up at Amritvela is the actual act of getting up from the bed. Many times when the alarm goes off, we are in half sleep and just shut off the alarm and go back to sleep. If you are having trouble getting up, the best way to get up is to put your alarm clock far away. So when it rings, you will be forced to get out of your bed to shut it off. This is what works for me at least.

 
 

but i cant hear my alarm what can u do then?

I blast bir ras kirtan in my face with my phones bright <banned word filter activated> light right when i wake up. Usually works lol

You could try and see how it works, also naps help a lot. Literally a 20 minute nap helps me freshen up. Learn how to nap power nap. Other than that, do your amrit vela based on what you can handle. As your avastha increases amrit vela will become easier.

Just for the record, i used to get up at amrit vela but i don't anymore

So why would you think Singh Ji, this happens. Do we get bursts of time when we engage in Naam simran and then we have a time when we just need a break. 

Why do you not want to get up any more? (just curious) 

Lately I have been wondering about this. Why is it that we sometimes stay connected and then we forget our path completely until something else happens and we start from scratch once again.

Because it's not an easy path, unless God graces one with sharda (devotion) and the inner strength to wake up then. Moh and Maya may also contribute to these phases.

Waheguru ji ka Khalsa, Waheguru ji ki Fateh.

I am a class 11th student from Delhi, India. I was really inspired to wake up at Amrit Vela after watching some videos of Basics Of Sikhi and Gurmat Bibek channel. When I decided to wake up at Amrit vela, I used to sleep at 10 p.m. and wake up at 2:20 a.m.,bathe and recite Nitnem and then sleep. However, I could continue it just for 4 days. Now, I'm really disappointed and looking for a new routine because my lecture and school timings don't match well. 

However, if I wake up at 12:15 a.m. then I think I would be able to set my routine well... I haven't started waking up at 12:15. I just wanted to request that please someone knowledgeable tell me whether waking up at 12 and doing nitnem will be considered as Amrit Vela or not.... 

I would be highly obliged.

Benti to waheguru ji that do kirpa on all Sikhs... Make the unawared ones aware about the importance of Amrit vela and let us wake up early and take lahaa. 

Bhul chuk maaf karni ??

    • 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.
