While studying the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji [electronic copy],I have /read/repeated the first 400-500 pages and I generally stop here. The rest have not been read with concentration. One can read the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji according to Raags and make notes Raag wise. This has helped me a...

The title caught your eye? Good. You might be wondering what the connection between the two is. Guru Arjan’s time was largely in the late 16th and some in the early 17th centuries. How do I hope to link him to 1984, and to what purpose? The Orwellian events of 1984 are now history...

Excerpt: Guru Nanak came in ecstasy. Noorshah tried every magic; nothing happened. Guru Nanak asked: “Have you agreed to the crime?” She kept her head down. All the drums stopped and started dancing on the hymn. Guru Nanak said: “Mardana! Play the rebec,” and sang in Aasa Rag. In the...

Preface : Harinder Singh Sikka, Producer. The film 'Nanak Shah Fakir' is a dream that I saw by His grace. Guru Nanak was called Shah by the Hindus, Fakir by the Muslims (both titles considered to be the highest in the respective religions). Gurbani has thus, at many places, addressed the Guru...

On 8th March, world celebrates women's day. Sikh faith was among the first major world religions to imply that women were equals to men. Guru Nanak proclaimed the equality of men and women and all Guru Sahiban allowed women to take full part in all the activities of Sikh worship and practice...

I'm looking for one to own and read. I figured here would be the best place to ask for recommendations. And my clothing question revolves around the salwar kameez. I bought a few for gurdwara but would it be out of place for me to wear them all the time? They're so amazingly comfortable and...

What is the history on celebrating Guru Nanak Birthday in nov ? Isnt it he was born in April some time ?

Whenever i recite waheguru simran, i start feeling freshness or calmness at the bottom end of my tongue, basically where the neck starts. Why?

I know many of you will feel it a disrespect asking such question. Apologies for that in advance. It is not my intention at all. Peace. I know we should respect the teachings and book and I feel myself obliged for that but I feel some people just exaggerate things too much.

Please be straight forward in your answer and then explain your thoughts. 'Yes/ No' are straightforward answers. Thanks :thinkingmunda:

It was put in the background of an entirely unrelated video on Youtube. I don't think they knew what was being chanted in it... but it's clearly 'Waheguru Sahib Jio" But it's probably the most haunting simran I have ever heard! Anyway I'd like to find the original and listen to the whole...
