Waheguru Jee Ka Khalsa Waheguru Jee Kee Fatah

Veerjee,

i can only saw a few word about Nanaksar. They were Started by the great Brhamgiani Sant Baba Nand Singh. They were a very pious soul born in the late 19th century. They started parchar of Sri Guru Granth Sahib. They met with another soul Baba Jeevan Singh Jee. They were both students of the great Sant baba Harnam Singh Bucho Walae. Baba Nand singh jee did everything according to the sant they followed and both themselves and bba jevan singh were rewarded with one wish each from the grace of God. Bhai jeevan singh jee asked to be blessed with the art of keertan to be able to join one sould with god whcih was granted. Baba Nand singh jee on the other hand asked to be in constant communion with Satguru Nanak Dev Jee which was granted. After this his mission spread where langar was distributed openly and at all parchars no maya was allowed to be near the sants as they didnt need the money. At no point did they have a gurdwara they were very nomadic any any temporary habitat created was knocked down after they left. The pictures you see of guru nanak dev jee at Nanaksar were done by Baba nand singh jee. They asked a painter to paint the image of the satguru but every time he did the sant said that looks nothing like them. The painter stated he was doing it out of thought only so baba ji asked him to come early morning and when he did they changed their form to the splender of the satguru.

They past their spiritual throne onto Baba Ishar Singh Jee who were formally known as Baba Inder Singh Jee before amrit Sanskar. They Preached the same for many years also the message started by Baba nand singh Jee.

>

After them they passed the seat to numerous sants such as baba amar singh jee, baba gurdev singh jee, baba kundan singh jee and baba miah singh jee.

Unfortunatly i connot go into greater detail i do not have the knowledge to do so.

Please take a look at www.babanandsinghji.com it is insightful

I hope i have helped you in the slightest.

Waheguru Jee Ka Khalsa Waheguru Jee Kee Fatah

Sadhsangat,

It is wery comman that many akhand paths are done together when it comes to an auspicios occaision. The Nanaksar Gurdwara in the UK are no different. The Nanaksar thath in Wolverhampton has done 101 akhand paths for the barsi of baba nand singh ji, same in coventry and in Snitterfield Baba Nahr Singh Jee who are the grandson of Baba Nand Singh Jee erects a hugh tent in the fields. They have completed 301 akhand paths. Its eye opening the amount to pathis and gianis willing to help out. Each one will do anything to contribute to the akhand paths of Guru Sahib

nanaksaar is not a gurdwara its a dera, they do not bow to the authority of akaal takht

nanaksaar wuz a great dera till the death of sant ishar singh ji after that it went down hill like now their sants are at the same level as guru ji goto a dera and c for ur self

lol rolleyes.gif

You got it all wrong bro! How can you say Nanaksar Gurdwara is just a dera, shame on you man. I go frequently to the nanaksar gurdwara near my house, and the respect they show to Guru sahib, I beleive they don't show that much respect elsewhere. First of all if they have Guru Granth Sahib ji maharaj da parkash then its a Gurdwara, NOT A DERA!! B)

It was never a dera, even when baba ishar singh ji was alive, and its still not a dera. It has never gone downhill, and have always been in chardi kalaa!!

Try going to Nanaksar Gurdwara for a month, you'll know for yourself! rolleyes.gif

khalsa paji/panji

lol ni

its true without a nishan sahib, and commitness to akaal takht it is nto a gurdwara

more over the now sants there dont' even use real kirpans, but ones aroudn their knecks, yes theys how siri guru granth sahib ji much respect, but who r they to put pictures of sants (mortals) at the same level as a guru sahibs picture

ie. vancouver nanaksaar, big corner pictures of the great gur-sikh sant nand singh ji like huge bigger then life size, and at the same level smaller pics of siri guru nanak dev ji maharaj, i dont' c that as nice.

more over if u ever goto nanaksaar in punjab there are like 5sants there, each with a fuid within them selves, there is dicussion on declaring nanaksaar tanhia or what everu call it, i'll post a link.

And when the nanaksaar sant ji died in 95 or 96 in vancouver they displayed his body in the main hall like a freak show, is'nt the body supposed to be just a hunk of nothing ness?

    • lol dal panth Panj told me explicitly not to associate with Vadhbhag Singh Sodhi followers!
    • We have lamp (or Jyot) the pure unscented candle for a reason. Traditionally, Patis used candle light (jyot), so they could read SGGS in darkness. Light, elec didn't exist. Dhoop is used to attract the "Good spirits" but also keep freshness where Maharaj will be.  Interestingly and coincidentally I heard Sakhi a few dsys ago. During Dasa Pitha's time these souls were roaming the Earth and even Sangat noticed. Maharaj asked them "y u here?" They replied during recitation of SGGS and making Degh they didn't bother lighting candle. THAT WAS THEE ONLY REASON NO GATI WAS GIVEN TO THEM!!!  AUTHENTICITY NOT CHECKED I heard once on YT like 2 days ago.  If u apply dhoop in one room of your house twice a week u will notice a difference esp in the smell and freshness of that room. 
    • Sangat ji, With the hot weather as per Guru's Hukm, how can we look after our kes?  First of all the beard! Working in Construction, factory and any other heated environment I UNDERSTAND! At my workplace it's over 32 degree celcius and sometimes we have to lift 20kg ALL! DAY! My tips, regularly shampoo the beard during ishnan. APPLY OIL! The technique of applying oil is by rubbing it thoroughly in the roots. Pay attention to the noise esp on the chin. You will hear this "crosh crosh" noise. Keep rubbing oil until u can't hear it no more! This means the oil has blended in properly.  Second tip on beard, keep an extra kanga in your pocket. Every two, three hours give your beard a proper comb down to get rid of any sweat or stickiness. SECOND BENEFIT! Do this all 12 months every single day your beard will look like it's been professionally groomed. TRY IT! People will ask you "What gel u use? How can yer beard be naturally like that?" You can say all I use is coconut oil or whaeva oil but just comb the beard every 2-3 hours for a minute.  As for the kes, morning time get rid of all the gronjra (or knots - forgotten English word), in the morning. However, during evening comb down make sure you get rid of small remaining gronjra and comb yer hair nice and straight. You will feel soooo so relaxed. Yes our hair will go unnoticed due to Dastar, but our hair demands time and self grooming!So proper combing down, spending a good 15-20 mins most evenings is an absolute MUST!  Most evenings I let my hair down and cover hair with my parna for 2-3 hours so it gets to relax from the tying up.  FINAL TIP! We are Sikhs so we keep fighting and remember this! The tradition of Dastar and uncut hair started in India, where the weather is twice as hot. Everytime we bring this thought in the mind, Guru ji will bless us and make us feel cooled down by a notch.  Fateh.       
    • Been so much nindya and attacking Shastarvidiya since the 2000s, however if we look at gatka now it's still mostly as poor and poorly taught as it was back then, still morris dancing moves and still behzti moves in BBC shows about sikhi and vaisakhi. If people were going to attack shastarvidiya, wouldn't have made sense to improve gatka instead and make it more effective? Additionally, the Nihang Singh presence has improved greatly now, and the cracks within the the SGPC and affiliated jatha jathebandis are showing more greatly as panth becomes more knowledgable with dasam bani and itihas day-by-day, so much gyaan which was lost within panjabi sikhs during colonial times. In the 2000s, the groups were able to talk down this bani and  gyaan by associating it with  RSS and hindus, brahminwaad etc. Not working so well now is it? However with gyaan it would be also good for us to try and preserve our martial arts and keertan vidiya as well! More and more crazy keertan videos are coming out from jatha members that are being made fun of and making sangat annoyed and upset, on tiktok and instagram reels.  
    • Author Posted April 24   On 4/21/2025 at 2:43 PM, ipledgeblue said: sirr should not be nanga because keski is usually worn.   Sikhs can sleep nanga-sirr if they choose to . Being from Punjab, almost every Sardaarji i know (amritdhari or not) sleeps/showers with their hair uncovered. I don't think Guru Sahib asked us to wear Dastar to sleep and I don't think it is in SRM.   The idea of "keski being worn to sleep" is cos in Bollywood films (Bachna Ae Haseeno) Sikh characters usually tie a gol parna when sleeping since the actor's usually Hindu. So they gotta cover his head somehow or he'd have cut hair. Same reason Diljit wore a pagg to bed in the El Sueno vid. Only time they didn't do that was in Gadar with Sunny Deol which just looked odd tbh   What in the world? What sikh or even a decent human would base their knowledge of their culture or religion on a movie industry, that too Bollywood?  Believe me, no sikh ever said, I must cover my head becasue an actor did so in a movie. I've been doing it all wrong, I must start covering mh head because the sikh in that movie did.  Just because every panjabi and sardaar you know, does something, also doesn't make it right..  Follow the guru. And if you have a medical condition, then exemptions can be made.  Just admit it, because of my medical condition, I am not able to follow this rehit. Why are you getting everyone else to drop to your level?
