I woke up this morning praying

[Guest Kaur]

This morning I woke up praying. Like i was literally half asleep and then all of a sudden i started saying the ardaas and doing simran. It was really weird. What do you think this means. Im not really religious so i dont really pray in the morning but the way it all happened was just so strange. Do you think this has any significant meaning. I habe heard that it could be a blessing or even death sign. What do you think ??

Pen Jee,

for sure it is a blessing, for as yourself say, and most of us know by experience, how hard is to be a religious person . Nobody can worship Him, without His bhaana, His hukum.

Regarding the option of death, it is sure we have to die one day, so even if one has to die soon as per any interpretation, even then we should be thankful to Wahiguru, that, even at our last moments, He allows us to devote Him in our minds, being it though an Ardas or His  Simran.

But then, why wait for the last moments, who knows of our conditions at that time. It would be better, if we could devote ourselves to Him on a daily basis.

If one has been learning to swim for quite a while, and suddenly one is thrown/pushed in the pool, one can swim safely. But one has not practiced swimming, and is suddenly thrown, one may get drowned.

Similarly, if we do His bhakti regularly, and we are about to die without any signs, then as we are used to it, it does not make much difference, as we are used to focus on Him in natural manner, we may get the grip of His simran and get crossed across the bhavsagar, but in any case by His kirpa at all times.

It's a blessing. It is a sign of God's grace. You should increase (or start) your prayer and mediation:

ਕਬੀਰ ਸੁਪਨੈ ਹੂ ਬਰੜਾਇ ਕੈ ਜਿਹ ਮੁਖਿ ਨਿਕਸੈ ਰਾਮੁ ॥

Kabeer, if someone utters the Name of the Lord even in dreams,

ਤਾ ਕੇ ਪਗ ਕੀ ਪਾਨਹੀ ਮੇਰੇ ਤਨ ਕੋ ਚਾਮੁ ॥੬੩॥

I would make my skin into shoes for his feet. ||63||

If you pray at night before sleeping especially the last hour then you will be praying all night in your sleep as well without knowing it. 

yes so you must have been praying all night.

ਸਉਦੇ ਵਾਹੁ ਵਾਹੁ ਉਚਰਹਿ ਉਠਦੇ ਭੀ ਵਾਹੁ ਕਰੇਨਿ ॥

While falling asleep they chant, ""Waaho! Waaho!"", and when waking, they chant, ""Waaho!"" as well.

I will try to source where I recently heard it... some video.

I had watched this video a few weeks ago.

The video is in Hindi.

The last thought you have before falling asleep, your unconscious mind processes it the whole night. 

I think that's why we do Kirtan Sohila before sleeping and while you are laying down, you should do simran and remember Vaheguru.
