Dance In Sikhi

[ramghariasingh]

why you cannot dance in the god name and on gurbani.

[buddasingh]

Have you ever asked why you can't go to a courtroom and try dancing in the name of justice and on legislation?

Why haven't you asked that?

When you sit still and absorb gurbani and move to serve in accordance with gurbani only then is one capable of experiencing dance.

Please do not pollute sikhi and yourself with casual caste id's such as ramgharia or jatt.

Baba Nanak ( Asa Ki // ) "dancing and joyfulness is a desire of the mind, but those who have fear of God ,within them is the love for God "

Dancing is not some vehicle of divine expression , Bhagti is ... We are not some form of Devdasi movement who have to dance to appease some god or goddess.

Gurbani is to be respected and absorbed into the mind instead being treated as a backing track to someone's manmat , how are you going to do that if you are busy jumping up and down , turning , making poses, like some Mad mujra ?

Sehaj , equipose is what you need and to concentrate on the naam and the message of Gurbani.

"ਗੁਰਮੁਖਿ ਨਿਰਤਿ ਹਰਿ ਲਾਗੈ ਭਾਉ ॥ गुरमुखि निरति हरि लागै भाउ ॥ Gurmukẖ niraṯ har lāgai bẖā▫o. The Gurmukh's dance is to embrace love for the Lord;

ਪੂਰੇ ਤਾਲ ਵਿਚਹੁ ਆਪੁ ਗਵਾਇ ॥ पूरे ताल विचहु आपु गवाइ ॥ Pūre ṯāl vicẖahu āp gavā▫e. to the beat of the drum, he sheds his ego from within.

ਮੇਰਾ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਸਾਚਾ ਆਪੇ ਜਾਣੁ ॥ मेरा प्रभु साचा आपे जाणु ॥ Merā parabẖ sācẖā āpe jāṇ. My God is True; He Himself is the Knower of all.

ਗੁਰ ਕੈ ਸਬਦਿ ਅੰਤਰਿ ਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਪਛਾਣੁ ॥੨॥ गुर कै सबदि अंतरि ब्रहमु पछाणु ॥२॥ Gur kai sabaḏ anṯar barahm pacẖẖāṇ. ||2|| Through the Word of the Guru's Shabad, recognize the Creator Lord within yourself. ||2|" (Ang 364), the only true dance is to lose your ego and love Vaheguru, (but even this doesn't include common dances on Manmat).
