VJKK VJKF! We have guru Maharaj in our house recently. My children are wondering whether, if their beds are allowed to face towards guru ji with their feet pointing that way. Would it be considered as biadbi? Guru ji and the children are in separate rooms though. VJKK VJKF

VJKK VJKF! Out of respect it's best to keep feet away from our Guru Sahib.

VJKK VJKF ! Were Guru Arjan Dev Ji shaheed? Or they disappeared when they were taken to bath after 5 days Of torture ?

Our history tells 2 different versions
We need to take the essence from the sakhia Ji, that's why the games were played out

What are the 4 khureita?

The 4 listed there - biggest ones and Amrit will need to be retaken and confession to the panj pyaree
What are the 4 khureita

I can answer the qs about Lord Vishkarma. In India, people who earn a living with tools (such as mechanics, engineers etc.) usually bow to (worship?) Lord Vishkarma. I guess uneducated Sikhs also got into the same habit. It has nothing to do with Sikhi at all.

Is there any plans on doing english katha for Kalki Avatar? The punjabi kathas are kind of hard to fully understand.

Lol not atm the moment veer Ji
Jap naam and try reading the back stories of the gurbani
A lot of naam will be needed to interpret the gurbani

Many Sikhs in India ,Tek Matha To Vishkarma on Next Day Of Diwali..some sikhs think that Vishkarma is the Creator of all Tools n Machines.. Is it right to Believe in Vishkarma being a Sikh?..even many Amritdharis do this .plz guide

Firstly we don't celebrate Diwali lol... we clelebrate Bandi chor
Nextly I have never ever heard of that and it's not to do with sikhi.
Guru sahib is the creator of all... Why do we need to bow to something that isn't the creator of all

Apparently there is some sort of typo on Ang 972, "Kameer" instead of "Kabir". How can this be, since we consider Sri Guru Granth Sahib to be perfect?

Nah no typo, SGGS Ji is perfect

I just wanted to know that once taking a hukmnama from the SGGS should we put our faith in the hukmnama and try not to over think a situation as it is waheguru ji him self giving us direction and guidence with the words from the hukmnama .. WJKK WJKF

Vjkk vjkfateh
Hanji, usually Vaheguru Ji will directly tell you or hint you in the right way... Or make a choice clearer for you by finding the root cause and making you deal with that so then you can deal
With you own situation.
That's just how I've seen hukams over my time.

WJKK WJKF. I am really confused. Why does Hazoor Sahib serve (or did serve) meat in Langaar?

Vjkk vjkfateh
Some Singhs say it's been going on for ages etc.
It's a drama I wouldn't get involved in Ji. More important stuff to do.... Like contemplate on gurbani

I want to start reciting Jaap Sahib. Will it be ok if I do this in stages. For example read the first 50 Pauris a day for a week or so and build it up- so week after do 60 pauris Is it paap if i do not read the entire Parth in one day? Thanks

Yh that's a great idea, sehaj rang rich rihiaia.
If you find it easier to connect to guru sahib like that then go for it

Is there such thing as messenger in Sikhism? Like is Guru nanak out messenger?

Guru Nanak is Vaheguru (God), sometimes we refer to them as the light of God.
Other religions have had prophets but we as Sikhs believe guru Nanak to be the form of Vaheguru who came
To this planet but they haven't gone because their truth is still found in Siri Guru Granth Sahib Ji (SGGS)

If Guru Granth Sahib is all written in Raag, what is the Raag Japji Sahib should be recited in and why have I never heard Japji Sahib sung even in Amritsar?

Japji Shaib isn't in raag... Guru sahib created such a gurbani that we Veechar it constantly and get as much spiritual gian from their as possible.
It's a limitless treasure

Do animals have a concept of Waheguru? How would an animal get out of its life cycle to have the chance to come back in the human form and reach sachkand?

The soul will go through a number of cycles of animals life before it is blessed with this human form.
This is based on their karma, what they did in past life etc.
That's why this life is a jewel

is their any other way of forgivness other than pesh ji?

No Ji, the panj pyaree are the form of guru sahib
They won't share with anyone what you may have done contradicting rehat.
To connect to guru sahib we need to become low and accept that we cannot do anything. To have a guru is to accept that they are our everything and they know best... This will break our ego slowly
