Guru’s blessings I passed University last year. It was not east, I had many failures and had to re-do exams along the way (and pay extra fees to re do exams). You have to stick with it ??

Be positive, nothing worth having comes easy. Carry on studying and doing simran. Accept that you can’t pass by your own will, God will give you the strength to pass.

Just to share a story from Giani Thakur Singh Ji’s katha. One girl failed University exam many times, she came and asked Giani Ji what can I do? Giani Ji said do mool mantar + gyaan anjan gur dia agaan anderh binaas, har kirpa te sant bheta Nanak man pargas 125,000 times. She did it and retook exam and passed in 1st division.

Guest Gurpreet Jee,

please take note, that paath, ardaas, or bhakti, are means only for getting nearer to Him, and be worthy to become one with Him, by His apaar kirpa.

Studies, careers, relationships, health, wealth, birth death, are all karmic accounts/settlements of oneself. And as such, whether we like it or not, are our own sown seeds in form of karmas, which shall reap at due time. 

Nobody can add anything for us, which is not in our destiny, neither take away anything from us, which is meant for us.

It is all our own karam.

So do not get confused.  Let this not dishearten you.  His bhakti, is done for Him alone, in order to be one with Him as said before. 

His bhakti, is not a commercial transaction, where one gives something to Him, in order to get something desired by us in exchange.

This is a common human error, and then when things do not work as expected, most blame Him, for their failures, their weaknesses, thier misunderstandings ....

But nevertheless, He is so Dayalu, that He  even accepts, that our petty imperfect bhakti, and even we not realizing it, He blesses us, so that we may have stronger faith and deeper love in Him, at His Lotus Feet.

Take life as it comes, and keep trying your best, that is Rabb da bhaana.

Which means, you accept and have full faith, that your destiny is what you have sown, for Wahiguru is not manipulative, He does not change His own desingned Nature, but if we devote ourselves to Him sincerely, He will definetely support us from within, to remain balanced at all times, that is  His apaar kirpa and beant wadeeayee.

Stay blessed.

Sat Sree Akal.

Failing your exam for the 4th time seems like a pretty good indication of "bhana"...

Why would it be rabb da bana?  You are giving up and trying to make excuses.  

Take Sikhi as an example.  Do you think every sikh became a Gurmukh on the first or second attempt?  Many times sikhs fail to stay on the path of Gurmat and they keep at it.  These guys advicing you that it is Rabb da bhana should quit trying to be Sikhs as well.  But why don't they apply the same advice to themselves?  

Rabb da bhana is not known or understood by anyone here.  However Gurmat tells us not to give up and keep at it.  

Read Gurbani in the language you can understand with the intent to attach your mind to the Guru.  By reading Gurbani in this way you will be able to increase how much you can remember and allows you to understand concepts quicker.  Sing his praises by reading Gurbani and go wash dishes at the Gurdwara as seva.  Combine seva and simran together and Akal Purakh will give you what you need.

Dedicate a whole day to reading Gurbani and understanding what the Guru is saying.  This will light the spark and carry you forward.

    • 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.
