I'm trying to find a new career and have been wanting to get out of my job. I'm in IT abd where I am there's no progression and the area I'm in, support engineer i do not want to do anymore. I been looking at different areas of IT and wanted advice so I did a Hukamnama from Guruji.

Can someone please explain to this manmukh the meaning of the Shabad. Is Guruji telling me not to look around after other things and stay put? Am i in trouble or with bad Sangat? What is Guruji telling me to do?

Make sure you do your nitnem daily so your works is not useless as you should do naam jap daily. Dont be dependant or overbelieve in your companions people close to you to hold your back. Keep guru sahin as your only support. Keep away from bad sangat and stay with good sangat or the sangat of the saints. And remember that we should always stay in gods will by accepting whatever that happens good or bad. We are powerless and god does everything. We should not have chinta or anxiety and do ardas to guru sahib that as powerless beings keep us at your feet and keep us attathed to naam as a drug addict is to his drug. By himself you cant accomplish anything but guru ji also says not to cling to companions meaning take guru sahib as your asrah.

Thank you for you reply paaji.

This line above is what makes me question if I should look elsewhere or if I just should stay where I am as Guruji is saying dont do anything else. Is that interpretation correct?

 

So should I focus on Naam on parth?

Could you be more specific about where you are working and provide other details. Also we have to live a grishti jeevan but we also have to jap naam. If we do naam our work will be fruitful.

Well I work in IT- an engineer. I just wanted to move out of it was fed up and was looking at other areas of it like programming etc. I took a Hukam as I wanted Gurujis advice as to what i should do, should i stay with what im doing, try something else if so what. 

If you ask me from the hukamnama, (the transliteration you posted was very hard to read and would be easier if it was in Gurmukhi), translation, it seems to seem to focus on Vaheguru without trying to find stuff elsewhere. You haven't mentioned if you went down-hill in bhagti or not?

Hi , I know sometimes guru ji's vaak is not easy for us to understand. 

However , never lose faith that guru sahib answers. Sometimes its not our samartha to understand guru ji.

Try to see in your life with whom you're associating that are of no use to you , even career-wise.

Unfortunately this is best i can understand. I wish I could help u more.

      Gurbani Santhiya

      By Dsinghd · Posted

      I was searching igurbani.com which gives correct pronunciation of Gurbani. I can’t remember all of it at once. I guess it relies on more practice, like more Sehaj Paths. The meaning becomes clearer. I have noticed slight variants in it. This could be because it’s written in old Punjabi.

      Veer Manpreet Singh claims we shouldn't worship Guru Granth Sahib ji

      By BhForce · Posted

      Veer Manpreet Singh, a lay preacher, claims that -Sikhs aren't supposed to worship Guru Granth Sahib ji. -We are only supposed to worship God as is written in Guru Granth Sahib ji. -We only "revere" Guru Granth Sahib ji.     He says a lot of other things in this video, some are good refutations of Hindu superstitions, but the reformers often go too far. Anyways, what he is saying about not worshipping Guru Granth Sahib ji is totally wrong. The reason is Guru Granth Sahib ji is Guru. Guru is Satguru. Satguru is God. We worship God. Therefore, we also worship Satguru (Guru Granth Sahib ji).   There are innumerable verses in Gurbani equating God and Guru. ਗੁਰੁ ਪਰਮੇਸਰੁ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਗੁਰੁ ਡੁਬਦਾ ਲਏ ਤਰਾਇ ॥੨॥ The Guru is the Supreme Lord and the Transcendent Master. The Guru floats (saves) the drowning one. p49   ਗੁਰੁ ਪਰਮੇਸਰੁ ਏਕੋ ਜਾਣੁ ॥ Know the Guru and God as One. p864   ਗੁਰ ਨਾਲਿ ਤੁਲਿ ਨ ਲਗਈ ਖੋਜਿ ਡਿਠਾ ਬ੍ਰਹਮੰਡੁ ॥ There is no one at par with the Guru. I have searched and seen the whole universe. p49 (If the Guru is the greatest in the whole universe, shouldn't we worship the Guru?)   I'd like to ask Manpreet Singh what is worship? Any reasonable definition would include obeisance, remembrance, and praise. Those are exactly the same things Gurbani says to do regarding Guru! Remembrance and obeisance: ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਅਪਨਾ ਸਦ ਸਦਾ ਸਮ੍ਹਾਰੇ ॥ Ever, ever, I think of the True Guru, ਗੁਰ ਕੇ ਚਰਨ ਕੇਸ ਸੰਗਿ ਝਾਰੇ ॥੧॥ and the Guru's feet I brush with my head's hair. p387   Praise: ਗੁਰੁ ਪਾਰਬ੍ਰਹਮੁ ਪਰਮੇਸਰੁ ਆਪਿ ॥ The Guru himself is the transcendent Lord and the supreme master. ਆਠ ਪਹਰ ਨਾਨਕ ਗੁਰ ਜਾਪਿ ॥੪॥੧੬॥੬੭॥ Throughout the eight watches of the day, O Nanak meditate thou on the Guru. p387   In fact, Gurbani says the way to find God is to worship (puja) of Guru: ਸਤਿਗੁਰੂ ਕੇ ਚਰਨ ਧੋਇ ਧੋਇ ਪੂਜਹੁ ਇਨ ਬਿਧਿ ਮੇਰਾ ਹਰਿ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਲਹੁ ਰੇ ॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ Washing and bathing the True Guru's feet, worship thou them. In this way thou shall obtain my Lord Master. Pause. p1118   Could it be any clearer that we are to worship Guru ji?

      Bro, reciting a shorter Chaupai Sahib is hardly "anti-Dasam". It's fine to argue that the longer Chaupai is more traditional, but the short one isn't anti-Dasam. That's like claiming shorter Rehras is anti-Guru Granth Sahib ji just because there are fewer selections from Guru Granth Sahib. It might not be traditional, but it's not anti-Guru Granth Sahib. I prefer the longer versions, but let's not exaggerate. Every tradition has a slightly different Rehras version. Nanaksar vs Taksal vs Nihangs and so on. The basic template for Rehras is at the beginning of Guru Granth Sahib ji. Later, Chaupai Sahib was added and Anand Sahib always follows as the end of a process. Then some sangats added more saloks to start Rehras and others were added at the end. Some additional selections from Dasam Bani were also added, but it wasn't the same ones for every sangat. The important thing is to not hate on each other for these variations.

      Umm, so you're upset that this jatha did Chaupai the same way it's being done at Harimandar Sahib for 100 years? Shouldn't you be upset at the manager of Darbar Sahib? I'm not saying that Sikhs who are aware of certain issues shouldn't do the longer Chaupai, but there are only so many battles you can fight. Instead of calling some jatha traitors because they're doing the (for better or worse) "standard" Chauapai published by the SGPC, it would be better to change things from the central point. You can't fault the average Sikh for picking up the average Gutka and doing paath.

      It's the same here in Toronto. Alot of the gudwaras here are political orientated and get tons of funding from the government-probably want them stay hush hush with all the BS that has been happening with India.  These guys are skewing gurbani. A complaint was sent to a ragi singh a couple of days ago in regards to a hukamnama.
