I have seen many such kind videos but don’t know which one to use for my simran. I prefer to use very soft sounding videos but there aren’t all that many of those available on the youtube.

Hello    well there are many types of Simran videos, you have modern guitar acoustic type ones or more traditional ones. Which ones do you like?

Hi there!  Silly of me to comment so out of the blue. Yes, as I was saying, I can’t seem to find any simran videos that are without background music ....I prefer just the voice and nothing else. I find any music quite distracting.  Tbh, even the paat videos have some kind of distracting music in the background. Sometimes the person who is doing the paat is so fast that you don’t even understand what they are saying. It’s very difficult for someone who is new to Sikhi to connect.

See, even this one has music playing in the background. I think what I am looking for is a voice full of rass and atmac giyan, like some mahapurakh. Something very evolved and natural.

Its hard for you to connect to Gurbani?  Sorry to say but it's not Gurbani fault.  You have not let go of whatever you are holding on to in the world.  You have not given yourself to the Guru.  You may be doing many things wrong.  As a newcomer you should be contemplating over shabads and  studying Sikh history.  I can read a chapter and put the book away and not think about it again.  Maybe something in the environment will remind me of something in the book but that's bh chance.  This is how we do NOT contemplate over Gurbani.  You sing it and think about the shabads throughout the day.

100% correct. I find if you try to understand the Gurbani shabad then you never forget them. So, if I am on the train or driving I just singh it to myself in any tune without music and I am fine. I prefer to do it this way. It’s very helpful.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
