40 Day Simran Jaap - Day20 - Bhai Hari Singh Ji Simran

Bhai Balbir Singh Ji -- Bir Rassi Dasam Bani

Saadhsangat Jee we at GurmatParchar.com see it our duty to deliver the correct dates for the Gurpurbs as we believe although each and every day should be dedicated to Satguru Sahib Jees unparalled and supreme memory, we are essentially delibrately lying when we stand within Sangat and in front of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Jee announcing the Gurpurabs and performing Ardhasa according to the modern man-made/manmath calendar. This audio snippet is of Katha recorded over 50 years ago, just as this year the Gurpurab of Sri Guru Angad Dev Jee's Jothi Joth precedes that of Sri Guru Hargobind Sahib Jee by one day as is said in the katha. According to the SGPC calendar for this year Sixth Guru's Jothi Joth was on the 19th of March and Sri Guru Angad Dev Jee's on the 16th April - does this make sense? They are not only following each other in the wrong order there is nearly one month difference? Why should we be a part of this deliberate scheme to change our heritage?

How the Gurpurabs were the same 50 years ago?

Bhai Jasdeep Singh Hukamnama Katha - Tudh Bin Dooja Nahi Koi

The katha explores what an “Avtar” is and the 6 different types of Avtars, including which type Sants or Brahm Gianis are. We also reflect on why Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji can be considered incomparable to Avtars and why they are the 1st and complete form (Sargun) of Akaal Purakh Waheguru (Nirgun).

We also explore when and where Sri Japji Sahib and the Mool Mantar was compiled.

At Sikh 2 Inspire we want to share the greatness of Gurbani and the glorious history of the great Gurus who blessed us both with their teachings and their presence. We also have a rich tapestry filled with the lives of Sikhs who have walked the path of love set out by the Gurus that illuminates the Guru’s message. 

Our goal is simple, we want to inspire people with this treasure and encourage them to build their relationship with Guru Granth Sahib Ji.  It doesn’t matter if you’ve never heard of Sikhi before, or whether you’ve been travelling Guru Nanak Dev Ji’s path of love for decades, there is so much inspiration we can take, so much to learn and experience. 

This path can take us to a place beyond our understanding, but it has to be walked, it has to be experienced. We want to help you take that first step, or that hundredth step, and at the same time we pray that Guru Sahib keeps us walking right alongside you.

Sikh 2 Inspire … aspire to be inspired
