Karṯā kare so hog na cẖalai cẖalā▫i▫ā.

Thinking of Mum night and day
This is what Maharaj said in today's sehaj past...

Karṯā kare so hog na calai calā▫i▫ā. ||4||

Whatever the Creator does, comes to pass. It cannot be changed by anyone's efforts. ||4||

It is in your hands....always and forever...we have full faith in you Waheguru Ji x

Those feelings

That longing
Those feelings
That connection
To forget oneself

The inner happiness
Feeling at home
Tonight Guru Ji was what I was missing
To forget oneself

Love always

x
I wrote this at the beginning of camp...

Staying at camp
Getting up at Amrit Vela
Being in your sangat
Singing your keertan

Being in your presence
I want this to continue
Don't ever leave my side
Don't ever let this end

The hardest part is life after camp
You attain so many realisations
Here i can talk to sangat who understand you
Maharaj, I have realised my aim in life

I will not wander in the technicalities
I cannot be bothered with the worlds allegations
Sikhi is beautiful
The beautiful part is the unspoken word, unspoken silence

Give me strength, never to waiver from this path
Never to astray from my goal
Being one with my Waheguru

Thank you Maharaj
-----
Been at home now for two nights
Not once did I awaken at Amrit Vela

Marriage is a hot topic Waheguru
I have realised I only want to marry a Singh of Guru Gobind Singh

Somene who understands this beautiful path of Sikhi
Someone who will understand that I want to be blessed with the gift of Amrit

Someone who understands me
Someone who loves Waheguru

Only you know who that someone is
Only you know how long i can stall my parents

So far from home...

Being in Dubai
So far from my Mum
Its not right
I want to be close by to Mum

This city of arrogance
City of physical prayer
But no pyaar

Sure in London
We live in a rat race but I feel close to Maharaj
I need to make more of an effort with Sikhi

The One has big dreams
Nice to see him ambitious
But I fear he is falling further away from Maharaj
Who am I to judge and know what he is feeling

Don't help being in Dubai
But I want him to realise
I don't want me to say to it

I am not the one to assess him
His love is between him and Guru Ji

I pray I get closer to you Maharaj being in London

Love you x

Mum

Your mom carried you in her womb for nine months. She felt sick for months with nausea, then she watched her feet swell and her skin stretch and tear. She struggled to climb stairs. She got breathless quickly. She suffered many sleepless ni
ghts. She then went through EXCRUCIATING PAIN to bring you into this world. She became your nurse, your chef, your maid, your chauffeur, your biggest fan, your teacher, and your best friend. She's struggled for you, cried over you, hoped the best for you, and prayed for you. Most of us take our mom for granted. But there are people who have lost or never even seen theirs.





I love you Mum.  Miss you so much.  Can't wait to come home so I can see you xx

I had a dream

Currently I am in Dubai
6 weeks with my lil baby and the One
It is a holiday
Well deserved break thanks to Maharaj

I will be honest
My heart is with my Mum
I have to make contact with her everyday
Even if its for five mins
Just to hear her voice
Feel her warmth
Feel her close

Knowing Mum is not well
I can't be here in Dubai and Mum in London
I have to be near

I know it is in Maharaj hands and I have full faith in Waheguru
Every night I pray from the depths of my soul
For a long happy and peace filled life for Mum

I had a dream last night
Something weird about going back home
To London via BOAT!!

There was a distinct scene
Being in Southall gurdwara
My Mami Ji is doing keertan
from her lips comes the beautiful sound of simran
It was so soothing and so beautiful to the mind
Hear simran in my dream
Being in the gurdwara holding her baby dressed in white

Thank you Waheguru

Maharaj spoke to me....



Hear Me, everywhere. Whenever you have a question, simply know that I have answered it already.
Then open your eyes to your world...

My Truth is the whisper of the wind, 
the babble of the brook,
the crack of the thunder,
the tap of the rain. 

It is the feel of the earth, 
the fragrance of the lilly,
the warmth of the sun,
the pull of the moon.

My Truth - and your surest help in time of need - is 
as awesome as the night sky,
and as simply, incontrovertibly,
trustful as  a baby's gurgle.

It is as loud as a pounding heartbeat - and
as quiet a breath taken in unity with Me.

I will not leave you
I cannot leave you,
for you are My creation and My product,
My duaghter and My son,
My purpose and My ....
Self. 

Call on Me, therefore
wherever and whenever you are
seperate from the peace that I am. 

I will be there. 

With Truth.

And Light.

And Love

(Conversation with God: Book 1)

Meditation Techniques


It's become common knowledge that many of our health problems stem
from too much stress in our lives. Deadline crunches, hectic schedules
and the constant reminder of slipping job security keeps us all on our
toes and stressed out. While we are hardly willing to pitch a tent in
the woods and leave it all behind, we could all benefit from slowing
down a little, if only for a few minutes, to regain our sanity,
perspective and even our productivity. This easy meditation technique
can be mastered in minutes and applied in the same amount of time. Use
it daily to establish a habit of taking time for yourself and putting
your mental and physical well being back onto your list of priorities.
Meditation requires a degree of mental allotment, which is always
easier when you can retreat to a quiet, peaceful place. Now in today's
world, that quiet, peaceful place may be a stall in a bathroom
(hopefully quiet anyway!) and that's fine. Hollywood has perpetrated
the image of mediation only being possible under a waterfall or in a
monk's monastery and that's simply not true. Anywhere that you can
slip away to and have just a few minutes of uninterrupted time to
yourself will work.

To get started, get comfortable sitting or laying, close your eyes and
simply focus on your breathing. Inhaling and exhaling is such an
involuntary action that we seldom think about it or place any degree
of focus on the process. For several moments, put all of your
attention on the current of air as it enters your nose, flows into
your lungs and circulates back out through your mouth. Take 10 slow,
deep breathes while maintaining this focus. If you find that your
thoughts wonder, pull your attention back onto your breathing.
Now, take a few minutes and expand this focus. Think for a few moments
about the thousands and thousands of tiny processes that are occurring
in your body at this very moment. Your hair and fingernails are
growing right now, in so tiny an increment that you can't even measure
it. Your heart is pumping blood throughout your entire body and
ensuring that you remain alive and healthy. There are so many
activities going on inside your body at any one moment that it will
really amaze you if you take a moment to think about it.
After you ponder on this and become aware of the various processes
occurring automatically within yourself, expand this to the outside
world. Even in the stillness of the room you are in, go through it
mentally and become aware of everything happening around you. Is the
wind blowing? Is there a clock ticking on the wall? You don't have to
focus on any one thing that's happening around you. Simply become
aware that there is a plethora of activities happening around you at
this very moment. After all, we are hurling through space at a
dizzying speed constantly. Just be aware that you are an entity within
this somewhat organized chaos. If you could freeze time and fly
through the entire universe and see everything, just imagine the
snapshots that could be captured. Imagine the things that are taking
place in this single moment in time.

Now, slowly open your eyes and focus on one thing: being aware of
yourself and your surroundings. Imagine the world in slow motion as
you rise from your seated or laying position. Bring your new awareness
with you as you re-embark on your day and remember your purpose and
the beauty of the fallacy we call structure. Revel in your mortality,
and embrace every experience, from drinking a glass of water, to
meeting a new person. Do everything with awareness and keep this new
perspective with you always.

This easy mediation technique takes only a few minutes and can have
the greatest impact on your day and life when used routinely as it
will heighten your sense of awareness of yourself and the world around
you.

Benefits of Meditation


These days our homes and places of work are filled with every
conceivable labour-saving device. Our washing machines can wash and
dry our clothes for us while we are out and about doing out own thing,
our meals can be micro waved in minutes, and cleaning our homes is not
the chore is used to be a few decades ago. Even with such things to
help us though, let's face it, modern day living can still be pretty
stressful and people need to find ways to relive the stress and
tension that has built up inside them. One way, strange to say, is a
very old way: meditation.
Meditation is not only good for the mind and spirit, the practice of
correct meditation techniques can also benefit the body. One organ of
the body to benefit from meditation is the heart (and what an
important organ it is)because when someone meditates they reach a
state of tranquility that decreases both their heart rate and their
metabolic rate. Other physical benefits of meditation include the
reduction of free radicals in the body by the elimination of unstable
oxygen molecules, lowering of high blood pressure, lowering of
cholesterol levels and an improved airflow to the lungs. Meditation is
also believed to delay the aging process by increasing the levels of
DHEAS in older people.
That's just some of the physical benefits, but what of the
psychological benefits of meditation?
Meditation can aid in increasing a person's brain wave coherence. This
can lead to decreased anxiety levels and make a person less irritable
and prone to deep-set depression and mood swings. Meditation can also
improve the memory and aid learning ability. People who meditate often
feel younger, more vital and have a more positive and joyful outlook
in life.
Other noted benefits that can be gained from meditation include:
Relaxation of the mind, body and soul.
Rejuvenation (more energy to face the heavy challenges and stresses of
the day ahead).
Healing (mind and body).
Emotional stability.
Enhanced mind function.
Helps a person discover his or her inner self and releases their
creativity.
Can help people free themselves from vices and addictions such as
alcohol and cigarettes etc.
Can help people gain a higher self-confidence and stronger will power.
These are just a few of the positive benefits that can be gained from
meditation, but there are many, many more. Like many things, though,
mediation needs to be performed correctly. If it is not there may be
side effects and so anyone who is planning on learning the art of
meditation should always consult a professional first who can instruct
them in the correct techniques.
