How to measure bhagti?

Another way to think about free will and Hukam is like a Father, surrounded by children. And they all say tell us a story! And he says Alright lovies, what kind of story? And he gets inundated with a million simultaneous excited little requests, and after a little bit the children start to calm down, and he pauses. And maybe they even look a little guilty realizing the scope of their requests. And he smiles and says I have just the story for you. 1 Oankar..and we slip into the dream of immeasurable extent, the story of Khel. The story of neverwas always will be.

Hansali wale were a good gursikh but we don't know whether he was a brahmgyani or a sant or a decent gursikh below sant avastha.

Gyani thakur Singh was telling that one day hansali wale were sitting crosslegged for a long time. He opened his eyes and said "paani bohat charriya hoyiya c" which means water was beyond control and then he said "I tried to lower down the power of water."

I hv 2 problems with that.

1. Why will a sant tell everybody that he has the power to stop a tsunami like event?

2. If God wants tsunami like disaster to occur at some place, why shud a sant try to stop it and interfere in God's hukam/bhaanaa.?

Giani Thakur didn't say he himself has the power, I think he was saying that that is what Sant jee told him

Sants work in Hukam...Sants can do Ardaas to delay or stop 'plans' from Vaheguru...if they are kind of 'one' with Vaheguru

Do you hv any Gurbani pankitis indicating that sant can tell Waheguru ji to change His plans ?

Baba Atal Rai, probably a brahmgyani or very close to it,brought a dead friend of his to life and Guru Hargobind Sahib did not like it and asked His son to die as he interfered in God's hukam.

Same thing happened to baba Gurditta ji, a brahmgyani for sure, when he brought a dead cow to life and Guru Hargobind Sahib did not like it and baba Gurditta ji had to give his life.

What do u make of the above sakhis?

No offense but kathavachiks like him probably make this stuff up for some publicity or something. I mean if he was truly Sant he wouldn't announce the hukam would he? I think it was him saying stuff like 2012 or something was the end get ready then he was like I fixed it lol. 

Isn't he the guy who said General Shabag Singh died in his arms but also said he wasn't in Akal Takht?

No, you have confused Sant Takhur Singh with someone else completely.

The Nitnemi Gursikh who said three times your bricks will stay kachi. Because he was rudely denied Langar and the Guru had said to serve all the Guriskhs Langar. The resolution to that was a do over for the Langari brick maker, so everybody ultimately was pleased and Guru Ji's Bachan was true at all times. Still the Sakhi says that because that Gursikh was such a Nitnemi of Japji Sahib, his Ardas had much respect, much weight.

I think it's more like if the Sant is in Samadhi and walking in Hukam, he will appear to stop the Tsunami if Akal does it through him. Without thinking. Like you would if a baby fell, you catch it, you don't think. And if you manage, by some miracle to catch it, you say Thank God. That was a miracle. Left to my own devices I could not have done that. 

It's hard for me to ask for anything except acceptance of Hukam. Except when the world is kicking your <banned word filter activated> so hard you can't help but pray for help.

    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!! 
    • Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi Kalan uses simple Punjabi.
    • Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
