[QUOTE="Luckysingh, post: 184758, member: 16886"] Amrit vela can be anytime you make it, but for most of us it is before sunrise(2am to 6am) !!!!! [B]WHY ????[/B] I haven't got a clue, but if you try to meditate at this magic time compared to midday or late afternoon, then you shall notice the difference!! Therefore, you will tell yourself, that this is what the 'amrit vela must be about'!! The way I see it, is that you are supposed to do your nitnem DAILY, now that means banis when you rise and before you retire. [B]WHY ???[/B] Because EVERYDAY within a 24 hour period we wake and sleep, no one goes a natural 72 hours and sleeps whenever they can !!! The body tells us when we are tired and when we need to sleep. Therefore, nitnem is incorporated into your everyday DAILY routine as part of Sikh discipline. SO I see nothing wrong with incorporating meditation and simran time to WASH your mind of the daily accumulation of filth every day. It just happens to be that the biological clock of the mind and body seems to respond and give more connection and anand at this time before sunrise !! I still can't explain why, but I was disappointed this morning(I got up late!!)after 6am as I couldn't get the same anand because it was a little too noisy, bright and the atmosphere felt busy outside. This morning the only lesson I learned and confirmation I got 'AGAIN' was that 'I would have felt better if I had got up earlier" You can only understand if you try it with TRUE intentions. I too, used to laugh at the discipline of nitnem and amrit vela, saying that it is some mindless ritual,- but know I seem to have a better understanding. If you all think that I am a mindless lost soul following some Brahminised pandit puja ritual, then be it !! I don't think Guruji had any problem with that because it is the [I]''application of the mind''[/I] that is the ritual. If I were applying empty physical applications like lighting a diva or sitting on a certain mat, then Guruji would have had a problem, since that would be [I]'mindless'[/I] Only I can confirm to self what makes me closer and how I feel the bliss of the Lord. I am not a Sikh with khes trying to connect and find myself with creator. But I am loser that felt a connection(via meditation) and is now keeping a khes and becoming a Sikh. [/QUOTE]
