VJKK VJKF. I'm thirsting for Guru Jis Amrit but I think I'm not ready but there's a small part ifs saying take it but I have bad habits like getting angry gossiping kaam takes over etc should I still take it or wait until I've got these bad things under control. Please advise.

VJKK VJKF! Amrit and Rehat takes care of us so if you love the Guru and want to surrender then take Amrit, if you've got that thirst then don't delay and fulfill your desire of becoming son/daughter of Dhan Guru Gobind Singh Ji. Remember the only person stopping you is yourself!

Is it rare for a Sikh to reach the point where their dasam dwaar opens or do most people just stay gupt about it?

We're living in Kaljug now and not many people get that experience of Vaheguru.

VJKK VJKF. What does Sahai mean? Like "Sri Akaal Ji Sahai" Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji Sahai". What's the English translation of Sahai? Thank you for taking out your time to answer these question.

VJKK VJKF! 'Sahai' can be translated to mean help/support ji.

VJKK VJKF. Just want to know. For instance, i were to tell Waheguru something else and want something else deep down my heart. So which will Waheguru listen to?. To what i say verbally or my heart?

VJKK VJKF! Vaheguru know everything without speaking to him, he knows the truth in each and every heart. If you do an Ardaas half-heartedly then that's what you'll get back. Even still sometimes we have to do Ardaas for things like Sikhi which we may not actually want but by calling out to Vahegruu verbally it can bring that thirst for Sikhi.

Where can I learn gurmukhi properly? And is it possible to learn gurmukhi in my summer holidays?

Try and inf out in your local area for Punjabi/Gurmukhi classes and would recommend starting Santhiya classes too to learn the correct pronunciation of Bani. In the meantime or if that's not available, you can use the Gumukhi playlist on our channel and teach yourself!

Is there anything special about the number 127? I have been seeing it repeatedly throughout my life.

Nothing special about the number may just be your own interpretation of it.

What should we do if we are unable to do the morning nitnem, is for an emergency reason. Should we try and do at least Japji Sahib and then try and do the rest as and when possible or do more paath the following day to makeup for it?

Try avoid missing Nitnem but if it's a real emergency then best to do at least Japji Sahib and rest of Nitnem after.

Now i think i was deliberately smelling it olto get high. Pls help i wud never do a thing but why does my min

Don't worry about it ji! We put dhoof on for the smell which can help us focus in Bhagti. I doubt it was tobacco, you were probably too close and just don't do it again ji! ;)

Hello, Is it okay to listen to Paath on youtube daily and read along with it? I can't read Gurmukhi and listening to Paath on youtube helps me learn how to pronounce words and the meaning of Paath as it has the english translation with it which without I find difficult to understand

That's fine, the best way to do Paath is by listening and following if you don't know Gurmukhi. But remember you can't stay like that forever !

Do you have any recommendations on 1984 documentary? Something that explains the entire story from 1947?

Don't think there is a documentary that tells the truth ji. Would recommend the WhyGuru Course uploads on our channel that cover 1947 to 84 to now!

Should we see the chaar sahibzade in the same light as the gurus? (Ie - enlightened or akin to gurus)?

Gurus were form of Vaheguru, Sahibzade haven't got the status of Guru but still are very high and we could say enlightened. However Guru Gobind Singh Ji is so amazing that he gave all the Khalsa the equal status to his own sons!!

fateh ji. Wanted to ask why we are not allowed to wear green or red keski

WJKK WJKF! Red and green used to be colours from Mughal and Hindu forces in Guruji's times so Khalsa is to be distinct. Best to wear Khalsa colours - Blue, Black, Orange, White ji.

How do I become a rep for basics of sikhi in the states? I tried reaching out on the site but it was down and also on Facebook. Vaheguru ji has pulled me back to bani and a lot of kids and adults at the local Gw have asked me to do something so use some of the YouTube vids to give knowledge.

Vaheguru, please message us on Facebook ASAP ji, will get back to you...

Any tips to help with memorizing Jaap Sahib? It's a challenge! My goal is to memorize all the Nitnem bani's so I will always have access to Bani no matter where I am.

I'd recommend listening to it and trying to read along, listen to it daily and you 'll have it in no time ji. Bani off by heart is like money in pocket, you can spend it any time !

I sometimes think that life isnt real, and Im sikh. Is that normal?

Its not real. The definition of something that's true is that it's eternal and life isn't eternal so its all temporary. Make the most of this human life jee, don't waste it!
This human body has been given to you.
This is your chance to meet the Lord of the Universe.
Nothing else will work.
Join the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy; vibrate and meditate on the Jewel of the Naam. ||1||
(Guru Arjan Dev Ji)

(I'm learning more about Sikhism everyday) So Vaheguru sent the 10 Guru's in life-form to spread the message of Sikhi? I'm asking because it sounds so similar to the story of Jesus! Wow!

Yes, we accept Jesus as a great saint who we don't really doubt was sent by God. Over time religion got deluded and therefore the world was crying out for help and Guru Nanak came to save the world just as Bhai Gurdaas Ji writes:
The benefactor Lord listened to the cries (of humanity) and sent Guru Nanak to this world.

Oh my goodness have you heard about what happened today at the Golden Temple? I am utterly disappointing

hanji, it has taken away from the significance of the day Ji.

Is it wrong if you do ardaas at home for something bad you have done or do you have to go pesh for the sin to be gone and for waheguru to forgive you?

vjkk vjkfateh, depends on what your panj pyaree said. if not one of the 4 sins:
consuming intoxicants
eating meat
sex outside of marriage
cutting hair
then you don't need to.
vjkk vjkfateh
