    Hukam Vs Karma Vs Destiny Vs Choice

    Hi there - I just came back from a young friends funeral. He was only 35, 2 beautiful kids and a lovely wife. Died from a 4 year battle with cancer. Very sad. The Antam Ardas was peaceful and comforting. But reoccurring message I kept hearing was that this was Guru's Hukam and he planned it...

    Special Blessings From A Nanaksar Gurdwara?

    Thank you for the kinds words and encouragement! I believe this experience with our son is bringing the compassion and sewa from within us to help others. I tend to agree with your perspective on this topic also. Everyday I am finding strength in Gurmat that sheds light on my personal inner...

    Special Blessings From A Nanaksar Gurdwara?

    Friends, As a few of you may know, I'm blessed with a wonderful son with autism. Someone was suggesting to me the other day that we should do Darshan at our local Nanaksar gurdwara especially on the days of pooranmashi for a special blessing for our son. Now, i'm from the Sikhi camp of inner...

    What Is A Soul?

    Sorry .. but a bit confused here? What is "everyone's true nature"? Does absolute mean physical and the relative mean spiritual?

    What Is A Soul?

    Friends, I've been thinking lately of what exactly is a soul? With the ability of a soul to transmigrate as some form of energy, or as it reincarnates, or transcends into other heavenly forms.. what properties does a soul have that actually goes with it? Does it think? Does it have feelings...

    Questions From A Non-sikh

    Thanks original - but I think#3 got cutoff. Regarding #2 with mool mantar, do you listen to it or say it to yourself over and over again? and what do you visualize? How do you keep the mind from wandering? I'm interested in the experience of nam Simran. Cheers.

    What Is The Meaning Of Life?

    Good question. I used to like winning. I used to want to crush my competition (school, work, sports). For ego? To drive a flash car? For power? That used to be me... but I was not happy despite my successes. And then I had a son with autism.. and with this journey he has helped me realize God...

    What Is The Meaning Of Life?

    HarryJi I think for me the true understanding of this and then the full acceptance of God realization through self-realization is the first step - truly knowing that this is what God means. Amazing. So now I aspire and work hard to live within these qualities. I am by no means perfect or there...

    What Is The Meaning Of Life?

    Quite simple really, Naam Japo - Be aware of the Divine in our hearts and the whole creation with every breath we take. Feel the sound current - constantly Kirat Karo - Earn our living honestly and share whatever we have with others without ego Vand ke Shako - Be constantly awake for...

    What Is The Meaning Of Life?

    I think I found Waheguru this morning! Found meaning.. I get it! During my sunrise drive just outside Toronto this morning, after my morning Nitnem and doing simran in the car I was contemplating "what is God"? Watching the beautiful and powerful sunrise.. it dawned on me (no pun intended!) that...
