The link I shared above lets you put in how the Shabad sounds in english, if you cannot use the starts with punjabi alphabet search.

If you have further questions or seek clarification feel free to post in the "Gurmat Vichaar" section and many more learned than I would be happy to help.

Hope it helps.

Re: Introducing Myself

sikhitothemax English search won't work if someone uses a transliteration that is not standard. In this case MsKaur ji did. So pot luck:

Guru Raam Daas Ji
Raag Soohee
757
jae sukh dhaehi th thujhehi araadhhee dhukh bhee thujhai dhhiaaee ||2||
If You will bless me with happiness, then I will worship and adore You. Even in pain, I will meditate on You. ||2||

Also important to note about sikhitothemax. Some of the Gurmukhi fonts do not always transport into a recognizable font here at SPN. That was the case I experienced with the tuk above. Srigranth does use unicode which makes it possible to post without a problem at this site. Just a tip.

Re: Je sukh deh ta tujhe aradhidukh bhi tujhai dhai

When Guru Arjun Ji wrote this,,Sain Mian Mir a close friend was nearby...and he expressed astonishment and remarked..this is impossible Guru ji..are you not a little bit exagerrating ?? How cna a sane person cut up and burn his own body slowly in the fire ?? Guru Ji replied..NO my friend..Gurbani is Ilahi Farmaan..its never exagerarated..all in good time...

So when Mian Mir saw Guru ji seated out in the Open air under the hottest Indian Summer of JETH Month, with a ferce fore burning under him, and heated sand being poured over his head and naked body...and Guru Arjun ji clam and serene mouthing Ter Bhanna Meetha laggeh..Har Naam padarth nanak mnggeh..Dosh na khon dehon...Sain Mian Mir was FURIOUS and wnated Guru Jis permission to destroy Lahore and Delhi...Guru Ji calmed him down...and he saw that the Gurbani is eternal truth and never exagerrated...he saw living proof of what Gurbani can do...he was calm and went away with tears in his eyes...

DHAN DHAN Guru Arjun ji Emperor of Martyrs....showing us the WAY to BLISS...even on a burning hot plate over a blazing fire !!

Thank You So Much.
I really appreciate your help.

Re: Je sukh deh ta tujhe aradhidukh bhi tujhai dhai

We can all learn from this shabad. Professor Darshan Singh would not take legal action again those who threatened him in UK. His one reply "Giaan" "Giaan"

I was very ashamed.

He was right.

This is the Sant Singh Khalsa MD translation

In reference to the above, I have used Professor Sahib Singh ji's Teeka (Guru Granth Darpan) to extract my view of the essence and messages in this Gurbani as below,

1. Guru ji describes in examples how strong the desire is to understand the creator. Guru ji says, I sacrifice myself on whoever helps me meet the creator.
2. Well being or not I continue to seek (no despondency)
3. Hunger as though satiety I feel (always content)
4. Torn myself into pieces and into the fire (through pain and suffering)

Synopsis:

Guru ji very graciously provide examples of common activities and how the yearning to understand and be in consonance with the creator reigns supreme. The concepts covered are beyond so called five vices (kam, karodh, lobh, moh and hanker). Examples are of persistence, effort, commitment, continuity, understanding one that is everywhere and Guru ji states this provides nourishment to one’s self and happiness in living.

I have used some layman wording to help describe and stand to be corrected or apologize ahead.

Any comments always welcome.

Sat Sri Akal.
