Jaap Sahib is to praise Vaheguru and it gives us gian about Vaheguru. It also wakes us up and we have to concentrate to make sure we don't pronounce a word wrong.

Chandi Di Vaar is to get us ready for battle. It puts you in a warrior mood and you in a state of bir-ras.

Shastar Naam Mala has heavy bir-ras and it praises Shastar and mentions that another form of Akaalpurakh is Shastar.

Charitropakhyan tells us about how Sikhs should not fall into the trap of kaam and maya. It tells us stories and teaches us a lesson.

Tav Prasad Savaiye tells us that we should not take part in any rituals because they are pointless. It also describes a little bit about battle.

Chaupai Sahib is a benti to Vaheguru to keep us in their charan and kill our enemies.

 

I tried to explain it as simply and as accurately as I could. Please forgive me if I made any mistakes.

Which gives more bir ras. Does Jaap Sahib give bir ras and also people say Shastar Naam Mala is a huge paath, but when I check youtube there are only 4 min videos so whats happening there and also what about brahm kavach? does that give you bir ras? and Shabad Hazare Patshai 10 what about that. Also what about akal ustat and its 16000 waheguru jaap thing

Also for Chandi di vaar, there are special rules. Do these rules apply if your gonna do it for the whole night, or when you gonna do  (i.e amrit vela), what I mean is that if i wake up at 4 and do it do I have to do the rules, i.e dhoop etc, or can I just start to read it like I do with the other banis?

Shastar Naam Mala has heavy bir ras? So that means I will not be able to handle the bir ras, untill I don't reach a "specific state"

I want to start Shabad Hazre Patshai 10, Brahm Kavach and Shastar Naam Mala and then eventually akal ustat. Will I be able to handle the bir ras. I do Japji Sahib, Jaap Sahib, Tav Prasad Sveya and Chaupi Sahib.

All of Dasam Bani gives Shakti, Power. The entire of Dasam Pita's bani is euology to Akaal Purkh in the form of Kaal Purkh and Bhagauti, basically God in the form of pure power. This power we can use for whatever we wish, doing more Paath/Bhagati, to sustain us through the day and also to encourage us to do good things. Singhs used to use to inspire the will to fight for righteousness back in ye olden days.

In simple terms it instils Power in the reader.

All Dasam Bani gives you bir-ras whether it be Jaap Sahib or Brahm Kavach. Chandi Di Vaar is not meant to be read after sunset because think about it: If you are in a state of bir-ras then you won't feel like sleeping, you will want to go to battle. Shastar Naam Mala (if you listen to it) you will be able to tell why it has heavier bir-ras compared to Jaap Sahib. You probably will be able to handle the bir-ras because I listen to it everyday and I'm fine. Its just if you do like, 10 Shastar Naam Mala da paath then you won't be able to handle the bir-ras to be frank, you will feel like going to battle. You will be able to handle the bir-ras but I highly recommend becoming fluent with Panj Baniya. Even I need to start to add more Dasam Bani to my nitnem but I am getting so lazy nowadays I am still struggling with amritvela. I apologise if I made any mistakes, I am still learning and I hope Guru Ji's pyari Sangat can forgive me.

Yes IMO the rules are for when ur doing it for whole night.. when making it a part of ur nitnem thn u just do one path and in the end do Anand Sahib..

No one is answering my question about doing chandi di vaar in the morning( i.e  if we have to follow the rules, the dhoop stuff in the morning) and why shastar naam mala is only 4 min(people say its a huge paath) and if akal ustad is equal to 16000 waheguru jaaps......

Shastar Naam Mala isn't that long but it is quite an important bani. Thats why they say they its a huge paath becuase they are not referring to its length but they are referring to its content. I am not sure about the Chandi Di Vaar question. As for Akaal Ustat just add it as part of your daily nitnem it doesn't matter if its equal to 1600 vaheguru jaaps. As long as you are doing your paath then its all good. If I made any mistakes please forgive me, I am still learning.

1. If you are doing chandi di vaar in the morning then you don't have to follow the dhoop deep maryada but it is good to do so

2. The first adhyae of sri shaster naam mala is only about an ang long in sri dasam granth, but there are 5 adhyaes which are equal to around 90 sri dasam granth angs. We normally just read the first section in the gutka Sahib's. But there are other parts like paans naam, baan naam and other weapon names. 

3. Don't know.

    • 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, 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.
