Balbir Singh Jeeeeee!!!!

Give me a better translation and I'll change it. But the topic remains as Ajappa Jaap.

I know it is ideal to do nam jap during amritvela, and of course other times, is it wrong to do it at the airport or during a plane flight?
I'm a nervous flyer and started to do nam jap, but now I'm not so sure if that was right.

The wonderful thing about the practice of the Divine Name is that there are no stringent regulations regarding its chanting — it can be handled by anyone at any time and at any place. If done with love, sincere feeling, determination and intense concentration, it removes the inner "filth" (egoism, ignorance, illusion, conditioning, Maya, etc.) enabling one to see All-pervading Truth within.

Yes -- the thread is wonderful Nam Jap ji! Ajappa Jap also good late at night, when you are in physical pain from an injury, or maybe arthritis, or perhaps sick with a virus, a fever. Naam Japna alleviates suffering -- all suffering.

SHALOK:​

With my tongue, I chant the Lord’s Name; with my ears, I listen to the Ambrosial Word of His Shabad. Nanak is forever a sacrifice to those who meditate on the Supreme Lord God. || 1 ||(Page: 709)
Namjap ji
Above is a truthful statement of the one who experienced that state of mind, should we just chant Lord’s Name or do some thing first to deal with the trash society has loaded on us and soul is buried deep down?
Answer can show the way out if given depending upon the above Slok’s application.

PK70 ji,

Guru Ji guides us step-by-step. If anhad shabad was the ultimate, then why have 4 Laavan. 2 should have been enough. But no, the journey continues :-

Ek Musafir Ji,

The english translations given by Dr. Sant Singh Khalsa are unsatisfactory. As PK70 Ji pointed out, it takes the enlightened person to translate correctly. Did you say that PK70 Ji ? Maybe Balbir Singh Ji can give us the correct translations of the Laavan.

Aad Ji,

This reminds me of a parable. A beduine traveller came to an oasis to let his herd of animals have their fluid fill. While resting for the night, he was told about a wise man who lived here. The traveller (Musafir) had a good reason to go and visit the wise man. As he was greeted into the wise man's tent, the Musafir humbled himself down and bowed in reverence. He told the wise man, "I follow my religion diligently. I have great faith in Allah. But my horses have been stolen before and I often wonder whether I should tie my horses or have faith in Allah."

Hearing this, the wise man told him to come back in the morning as he wanted to contemplate on the answer. In the morning, the Musafir came back for the answer. The wise man said, my answer is this : "Tie your horses, and trust in Allah."

Take your medicine and do your Naam Jap.
I take something for arthritis myself - content - Glucosamine Sulphate and Chondroitin Sulphate.

Nam Jap ji,
Pray for Truth for All!

I wasn't talking about myself in the particular.

This reminds me of a story too. Once on SPN someone said:

Some of us jap.
Some of us discuss.
And some of us jap and discuss.

Definitely it is wise to take your medicine too. One way or the other.

Pray Truth for all and say Satsriakaal!
Dear all and Namjap Jee!

This is what Gurdev is explaining in the first Vaak of this Hymn to me.

Normally a Jeev's 'virtee' is flowing outwardly. So, his Karmaas are accordingly entangled in Sansaar.
'Parvirtee Karam' are that lead one inwardly transcending mind, for example traveling with true Naam Sabad.

Gurdev is singing.

ਹਰਿ ਪਹਿਲੜੀ ਲਾਵ ਪਰਵਿਰਤੀ ਕਰਮ ਦ੍ਰਿੜਾਇਆ ਬਲਿ ਰਾਮ ਜੀਉ ॥
Hari in the first round establishes parvirtee Karam, Bali Raam Jeeo.

Rest other time when God wants me to say more.


Balbir Singh

Namjap The topic is Ajappa Jaap. English translations fall short of explaining it.

I agree they do, whenever a translator try to translate word by word, Guru message is not conveyed fully and some time it is distorted. I agree with Ek musifir ajnabi when he says Gurbani is addressed different way to different people with different level of mind.. Ajap indicates a state of mind when it is completely lost in HIS thoughts, every thing stops, its hard to express through in words, I am million miles away from that; there is another example in this context. There is a shabad by Guru Nanak” pooja kijai Naam dhiaaeeai, bin Naam pooj n hoye” In that Shabad, Guru ji talks about His worship happening within. That also hints at special kind of state of mind. Regular people like me try to explain that kind of state of mind but without experience, it is impossible to word the gravity of that stage. And boasting talks about it, become laughable.
Namjap I strongly believe Gurbani is impossible to translate in its complete message, all translators showed their limitations, Sant Singh Khalsa is one of them.

Amjap ji First of all this, Shabad is not specially revealed for marriage ceremony. In Gurbani, the relation between the soul and the Creator is of wife and Husband. So Vivah( marriage) concept is taken to clarify the way of development of this pious relationship between God and the soul. Third Mehla also talks about this specific relationship

sUhI mhlw 3 ] jy loVih vru bwlVIey qw gur crxI icqu lwey rwm ] sdw hovih sohwgxI hir jIau mrY n jwey rwm

( In essence If soul wants her husband(God) should surrender to Guru and obey, forever Husband stays with her)
Following Guru Vaak clarifies this concept


squ sMqoKu kir Bwau kuVmu kuVmweI AwieAw bil rwm jIau
] kUVu kptu kmwvY mhw duKu pwvY ivxu siqgur mgu n pwieAw ]
Here KURM is used for Guru who arranges for union with God because without Guru, soul is prone to go astray.
vru pwieAw purKu AgMmu Agocru sd nvqnu bwl sKweI ] nwnk ikrpw kir kY myly ivCuiV kdy n jweI ]4]1] {pMnw 773}
Again Husband is HIM, once union occurs with HIM, separation never happens
So Guru ji refers to the same relationship of God and soul, now come back to the Shabad you quoted. It starts with first need of the soul to walk on that path, it is Guru who inspires soul lost in worldly affairs to turn to HIM only. Bhai Veer Singh defines (Shri Guru Granth sahib Kosh Page 428) “Parvirti as surt turning towards Naam after abandoning “Prvirti and nvirti(indifference approach towards world to realize God) Guru does that for the soul as a first step.
Namjap ji Guru ji has answered my question. In a way you were also right but going direct to “Jap” practice only, can be taken over as ritual by habit if SURT is not given and cleaning the mind is not done. As I said, Without Practicing Japji, Sikh dies spiritually, means if teachings in Japji Sahib are not practiced, Sikh fails to touch the taste of spirituality, means to over come ego and understanding His Ordinance and following the Guru on day to day life are mandatory for spirituality, mere talks take no where., so internal Surt and all trash Society buries the soul with must be cleaned. Here is Guru vaak you quoted
sUhI mhlw 4 ] hir pihlVI lwv privrqI krm idRVwieAw bil rwm jIau ] bwxI, bRhmw vydu, Drmu idRVhu pwp qjwieAw bil rwm jIau ] {pMnw 773}

what an incredible discussion; thank you all so much. I'm just a beginner on this way, and all your advice and quotations of Gurbani is tremendously helpful. So much to meditate on...
I understand enough that one can't do jaap automatically nor can you ignore your daily duties. Sikhs should be mystics in the world.

Fifth King of kings (“Pancham Patshah”) “Shri Guru Arjun Dev Ji “ has very clearly explained in 16th “Ashtpadi “of Prayer of peace (“Sukhmani”) that beyond universal limits, Lord of all Lords Supreme transcendental Lord (“Paar Braham Parmeshwar”) has no shape, sign or color, He is beyond these three attributes of Mammon (“Maya”). This means anything that has a shape, sign and color is the Mammon (“Maya”). His Divine Name (“NAAM”) is TRUTH (“SATNAAM”), and only that person will be given His Divine Name (‘NAAM”) – TRUTH (“SATNAAM”), who is blessed by Him with His Grace (“Kirpa”), and only on whom He will be pleased.

{url not allowed} - 10. Waheguru is the Naam

Waheguru ji how we know that simran know at what stage,what are signs which tell us that now simran travel to hirdey.

swas swas simrana or sas gras simran here is meditating on God every moment. It is living with Him this way. Living with him thus becomes the way of life. Whatever you do, you do, keeping Him in mind. You will find doing no wrong and your wishes will get fulfilled as a result. Thus, recitation or repetition is not as important; as living with Him every minute. Hence, there is no need of ritualistic repetition. We have to practically imbibe the idea of God in every part of our body and mind and see the entire world as His creation and accordingly love all; I repeat love all. In addition, we have to carry on the work allotted to us. Hath kaar val dil yaar val. Hands to be on the work and heart to be with the God. To start with, do pathh to capitulate Gurbani, understand it through veechar (discussions); 'sat, santokh, veechar to be the building pillars. Then get Him into your heart and soul with regular practice and then be with Him always; day and night during work and off work. Help His Creation along with.
