Chandi di vaar maryada which is Gurbani.

That video that Suchi posted was not Gurbani.

Thank you bro. What does the video say though.  It must say more than hold Shastar and do Chandi di // every night. 

Why did bhenji say she wants to move to hindustan? What was weird about the video title?

Chandigarh is a place in India lol that's why she said she wanted to go to India.

The video prob says that if you do Chandi di vaar in night, you have to do it continuously till the morning

Are you deliberately trying to be offensive. I'm a Khatri, and believe I'm related to Guru Nanak Singh ji as my family is from the same caste and clan which produced all 10 gurus.

Dude there is so much Gurbani denouncing caste. Stop associating yourself with a caste and instead focus on your actions and kamai. Waheguru won't look at you through the lens of caste so leave it man

 

Also...Guru Nanak Singh ji?

Apologies if I caused offence. That was not my intention but to share something that worked for me on an emotional level.

None taken by me bro just wanted to clear up the misconceptions.

I looked at the translation of the Chandi di vaar shared which referred to the Turks which is not relevant to the present. Doesn't that make it time barred?

Not time barred but it is relating to the events of that time. Gurbani has many layers and can be looked through both a historical lens while simultaneously a spiritual sense.

I am very aware of my actions as I have been brought up that way.  

I am not caste, religion, race conscious due to my upbringing.

Ok, i said that because you said i am a khatri and that is an association you made. Moreover we all trace our lineage to the Gurus when Guru Gobind Singh ji becomes our father.

However you have not mentioned the absolutely insulting remark about Hindus.

let's go through his words line by line:

"that s a bad post."

Nothing insulting there about Hindus

"Chandi di Vaar of Dasmesh Pita has infinitely times more bir rass than Sanskrit hindu version."

Agreed, to Sikhs, Gurus baniaa are superior

"if Sanskrit version was strong, why Hindus hv such cowardly past?"

This was interpreted by me as a reference to our ithihaas and the nature of these Hindus throughout Sikh History

"Brahmins who read these Sanskrit prayers all the time, r the most coward and deceiving people on the planet."

Another reference to our history

 

I know for a fact that shastar veer was not making a blanket statement of "I hate all Hindus" and the Gurus have often criticized the actions of these so called pious Hindus.

How can you claim to be a follower of one who denounced both? 

Both what?

Turak is still relevant.  They're a hot topic for us lately.

Not the most urgent priority though. China, Pakistan, USA, UK are the ones that have been intervening in our affairs the most for the past 300 years. 

My understanding is that mantras have to be very precise, that's all.

I mean it was the word used then for your enemy today. The one you're most concerned with.

The Gurus clearly changed the mantras to suit their time and situation to make clear their intention. 

Prayers are always personal and need to suit the situation. 

The term was used specifically in my opinion. They have a ship crashed in the caucus mountains that serves as their citadel. 

That's why caucasians are caucasians.

    • 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.
