Night visions Lulled by sleep and dreams I slumber through dawn I stretch my arms and blink and then I yawn Giving into the pillow I succumb I cannot awaken I’m overcome Help me enjoy a most wondrous gift Please be Thee my companion and uplift Me from the content of complacency To lose not this blessed opportunity And allow feelings once more to arise Found in ecstasy reaching to dark skies Silent showers of golden light surround WAHEGURU drowning every other sound Glowing love pouring on our upturned face Sister-lovers tremble in HIS embrace Waheguru Ji.

The founder of Sikhism, Guroo Naanak Dev Jee (1469-1539) was born in village Talwandi (now Nankaanaa Saaheb, Pakistan). Guroo Naanak Dev Jee challenged the fanaticism and intolerance of the Muslims, of his time. He also exposed the meaningless rituals and caste prejudices prevalent among the Hindus. Guroo Naanak Dev Jee propagated the equality of man and treated Hindus and Muslims alike. He opposed the distinctions of caste and called himself a member of the lowest caste.

The Tenth and the last Naanak(Guroo), G…

Sikh Philosphy The Sikh religion is strictly monotheistic, believing in One Supreme God. Absolute yet All-pervading, the Eternal, the Creator, the Cause of Causes, without enmity, without hate, both Immanent in His creation and beyond it. It is no longer the God of one nation, but the GOD OF GRACE. That being so, He creates man not to punish him for his sins, but for the realisation of his true purpose in the cosmos and to merge in from where he issued forth. 'O my mind, thou art the embodiment of Light; know thy Essence' 'O my mind, the Lord is ever with thee; through the Guru's Word enjoy His Love.' 'Knowing thy essence thou knowest thy Lord; and knowest…

Remembered joys are never past. - James Montgomery The One on the Bus....... Waheguru Waheguru Waheguru Waheguru Waheguru I was a child, seven, when I saw you then From a bus you would gracefully descend Liquid eyes of doe, blazing of light Bearded and turbaned, a resplendant sight. So enthralled and thrilled was my heart I thought that it would never again start Who was this prince, from where did he hail? This King of Kings, in form displayed. Many years like pages had flipped ahead You were still in my heart though not yet in my head. You came to me again, to me so seemingly late Yet, Oh how blessed was to be my fate. You blessed me with you…

The sweetness of my Guru Jee's feet, the power of his darshan...moving shabad... TODEE, FIFTH MEHL: O mother, the Guru’s feet are so sweet. By great good fortune, the Transcendent Lord has blessed me with them. Millions of rewards come from the Blessed Vision of the Guru’s Darshan. || Pause || Singing the Glorious Praises of the imperishable, indestructible Lord, sexual desire, anger and stubborn pride vanish. Those who are imbued with the Love of the True Lord become permanent and eternal; birth and death do not grind them down any more. || 1 || Without the Lord’s meditation, all joys and pleasures are totally false and worthless; by the Kind Mercy of the …

post from http://www.tapoban.org/phorum/list.ppa?f=1 Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru ji Ki fateh Khalsa ji This pakhandi saadh have been playing with our sentiments for long time.

He made the wife of one of followers as his 2nd wife claiming that she was his wife in the past 42nd life. He also claims that he did this because Akalpurkh told him to do so. . Even his 2nd wife's (as claimed by Narinder) husband agrees to it. This week he said in front of "his sangat" that he gave his wife to Narinder (as if she is his property…
