Salok, First Mehla:

The True Guru is the All-knowing Primal Being; He shows us our true home within the home of the self.

The Panch Shabad, the Five Primal Sounds, resonate and resound within; the insignia of the Shabad is revealed there, vibrating gloriously.

Worlds and realms, nether regions, solar systems and galaxies are wondrously revealed.

The strings and the harps vibrate and resound; the true throne of the Lord is there.

Listen to the music of the home of the heart - Sukhmani, peace of mind. Lovingly tune in to His state of celestial ecstasy.

Contemplate the Unspoken Speech, and the desires of the mind are dissolved.

The heart-lotus is turned upside-down, and is filled with Ambrosial Nectar. This mind does not go out; it does not get distracted.

It does not forget the Chant which is chanted without chanting; it is immersed in the Primal Lord God of the ages.

All the sister-companions are blessed with the five virtues. The Gurmukhs dwell in the home of the self deep within.

Nanak is the slave of that one who seeks the Shabad and finds this home within.

Raag Tilang, First Mehla, First House:


One Universal Creator God. Truth Is The Name. Creative Being Personified. No Fear. No Hatred. Image Of The Undying. Beyond Birth. Self-Existent. By Guru's Grace:
I offer this one prayer to You; please listen to it, O Creator Lord.
You are true, great, merciful and spotless, O Cherisher Lord.
The world is a transitory place of mortality - know this for certain in your mind.
Azraa-eel, the Messenger of Death, has caught me by the hair on my head, and yet, I do not know it at all in my mind.
Pause
Spouse, children, parents and siblings - none of them will be there to hold your hand.
And when at last I fall, and the time of my last prayer has come, there shall be no one to rescue me.
Night and day, I wandered around in greed, contemplating evil schemes.
I never did good deeds; this is my condition.
I am unfortunate, miserly, negligent, shameless and without the Fear of God.
Says Nanak, I am Your humble servant, the dust of the feet of Your slaves.

TRANSLATION
Saarang, Third Mehla:


O my mind, the Name of the Lord is supremely sweet.


It is the Destroyer of the sins, the guilt and fears of countless incarnations; the Gurmukh sees the One Lord.



Pause






Millions upon millions of sins are erased, when the mind comes to love the True Lord.


I do not know any other, except the Lord; the True Guru has revealed the One Lord to me.









Those whose hearts are filled with the wealth of the Lord's Love, remain intuitively absorbed in Him.


Imbued with the Shabad, they are dyed in the deep crimson color of His Love. They are imbued with the Lord's celestial peace and poise.





Contemplating the Shabad, the tongue is imbued with joy; embracing His Love, it is dyed a deep crimson.


I have come to know the Name of the Pure Detached Lord; my mind is satisfied and comforted.







The Pandits, the religious scholars, read and study, and all the silent sages have grown weary; they have grown weary of wearing their religious robes and wandering all around.


By Guru's Grace, I have found the Immaculate Lord; I contemplate the True Word of the Shabad.







My coming and going in reincarnation is ended, and I am imbued with Truth; the True Word of the Shabad is pleasing to my mind.


Serving the True Guru, eternal peace is found, and self-conceit is eliminated from within.







Through the True Word of the Shabad, the celestial melody wells up, and the mind is lovingly focused on the True Lord.


The Immaculate Naam, the Name of the Inaccessible and Unfathomable Lord, abides in the mind of the Gurmukh.



 


The whole world is contained in the One Lord. How rare are those who understand the One Lord.


One who dies in the Shabad comes to know everything; night and day, he realizes the One Lord.



 


That humble being, upon whom the Lord casts His Glance of Grace, understands. Nothing else can be said.


O Nanak, those who are imbued with the Naam are forever detached from the world; they are lovingly attuned to the One Word of the Shabad.

Translation

Soohee, Fourth Mehla, Seventh House:


One Universal Creator God. By The Grace Of The True Guru:


Which, which of Your Glorious Virtues should I sing and recount, Lord? You are my Lord and Master, the treasure of excellence.


I cannot express Your Glorious Praises. You are my Lord and Master, lofty and benevolent.

The Name of the Lord, Har, Har, is my only support.


If it pleases You, please save me, O my Lord and Master; without You, I have no other at all.
Pause


You alone are my strength, and my Court, O my Lord and Master; unto You alone I pray.


There is no other place where I can offer my prayers; I can tell my pains and pleasures only to You.
Water is locked up in the earth, and fire is locked up in wood.


The sheep and the lions are kept in one place; O mortal, meditate on the Lord, and your doubts and fears shall be removed.


So behold the glorious greatness of the Lord, O Saints; the Lord blesses the dishonored with honor.


As dust rises from underfoot, O Nanak, so does the Lord make all people fall at the feet of the Holy.

About Hemkund Sahib... My Wish List

A little bit about Hemkund Sahib ,the Sacred Place

Hemkund (Snow Lake) Sahib, as the name itself suggests, is a high-altitude lake (4329 m) surrounded by seven huge now-covered mountains, which are collectively called Hemkund Parvat. Close to the lake is a sacred Gurudwara that is a pilgrimage centre for Sikhs and Hindus from all over the world.
It is said that Shri Guru Govind Singh Ji (the Tenth Guru of the Sikhs) meditated on the very banks of this lake where a number of sages and religious teachers from the Hindu mythology, including Rishi Medhasa of the Markandeya Purana and Lakshman, the brother of Lord Ram performed penance. Besides the Gurudwara, you can also see a temple here. The lake is the source of the Laxman Ganga (alternatively called Hem Ganga) stream that merges with the Pushpawati stream flowing from the Valley of Flowers, at Ghangaria. From this point on, the river is called Laxman Ganga.
A very popular trekking destination, Hemkund is a 15 km trek from Govindghat. The trek takes one through pine forests where rhododendron (burans), wild roses, ferns and alpine flowers abound. With breathtaking views of the surging waters of the Lakshman Ganga, the last five kilometres of the trek entails a steep climb from Ghangharia, which is a base for visiting Hemkund.
The lake is about two kilometres in circumference. It has clear, still water mirror images of the Saptashringa peaks (5500 m) that surrounds it.


So what’s the best season to visit Hemkund? No doubts: it’s between July and October. During these days, you’ll find the water still, has shards of ice floating in it, glinting in the sun with the rock-strewn banks of the lake covered in moss and the flowers in bright bloom.




Gurudwara Hemkund Saheb
This imposing star-shaped structure of stone and concrete masonry is on the shores of the lake. An outlet behind the Gurudwara is source of the Lakshman Ganga.

Sri Hemkund Sahib Ji








History
There is a place high in the snow capped mountains of the Himalayas that was hidden from sight for eons. For thousands of years this place has remained unknown to humans, a place of utter beauty and peaceful serenity. Here a natural lake lies on a plateau at a height of 15,000 feet surrounded by seven white clad peaks. To the Sikhs this place is known a Hemkunt Sahib.


Hemkunt Sahib is associated with the tenth Guru, Guru Gobind Singh Ji, but what distinguishes it from other historical sites to the great Guru is that it is linked to Guru Sahib Ji’s previous incarnation as the mighty warrior Dusht Daman. Guru Sahib Ji mentions this place in his composition Bachittar Natak. But it was not until the twentieth century after many long years of searching that Hemkunt Sahib was finally discovered.


Dusht Daman (Destroyer of Evil)

Before this site was discovered by the Sikhs it was known locally as Lokpal, which translates to ‘protector of the world’. It was a place of worship and pilgrimage by the local population, a place linked to the hindu trinity of the creator – Brahma, the sustainer – Vishnu, and the destroyer – Shiv Ji. The Vedas and Purana text of ancient India mention the Himalayas as the abode of the gods and goddesses, the locals tell tales of Lakshman, Vishu and Hanuman.


The deity Lakshman who was mortally wounded in battle against the demons, was brought to the shores of the lake by his wife. She prayed to Hanuman the monkey god to save his life. Hanuman heard her prayers and found the life giving herb called Sanjivani Bhutti, this was given to Lakshman and he was revived. The gods were overjoyed and went to Lord Bramha to give thanks, seek his blessing and to protect them from the demons who ravaged the world. Lord Brahma told them that only Nanak the saviour of the universe can assist them in his tenth incarnation, that he will destroy evil and tyranny and will become the protector of the holy people. Lord Brahma recounts the following tale.


Dusht Daman


During the age of truth – Sat Yuga, gods and mortals will face the tyranny of the fierce demons known as Dhents. The gods will call upon Durga Devi to assist them and she will do battle against the dhents. The onslaught will be too much even for her and she will flee to the mountains. Here she will approach a holy man called Samaundh Rikhi who will be seated upon a lions skin. She will ask for his help. The pursuing demons will also reach his abode and demand that the rishi tell them where she is. The rikhi says that since the devi has sought his protection he is duty bound to assist her.


The demons are enraged by this and draw their weapons. The rishi addresses them " I am a Brahmin and will therefore not take up arms against you." Upon this one of demons shoots an arrow which glances the Rikhi on the temple. Blood spouts to the ground and from this manifests a KHANDA. From the khanda appears a Khattri (warrior class) youth who will be known as Dusht Daman (destroyer of evil). The warrior asks permission to engage in battle with the dhents. When this is given the battle ensues. The battles last for many years and in the end all the dhents are destroyed by Dusht Daman. The warrior then returns to the rikhi and says "what are your orders now ?" The rikhi tells the youth that he is to go to the mountains and perform intense penance and austerities. Dusht Daman sets of and reaches the lake of Hemkunt Sahib and spends many many years meditating on the name of the one true God. So much tapasia (meditation on Gods name) is done that the two – Dusht Daman and God – become one.


KHANDA

Ten Of The Most Beautiful Places Of The World!

Ten Of The Most Beautiful Places Of The World!

Final Analysis - After all its about what you have done !

Happiness ...What is it?

We daily hear our loved ones encouraging us to stay happy in any circumstances we faced in life be it family, spouse or friends, but have we really wonder what happiness is all about?

well it just struck me to do some reading about it and to my understanding, happiness is a choice that we should be brave enough to make. We often look at the bad side, & keep staring at that dark wall but forget to search for that small shine of light to pull us out from sadness. Yeah i know you have heard this perhaps a thousand time, & i believe its nice to listen but hard to apply. I wonder why.

I have looked through the youtube for meditations, yoga, spiritual lessons and it only inspire me for a while and the next morning i find myself back to the square 1. Here come discipline and mind set. Until one does not learn to let go of the past, it will haunt them for the rest of their life. God, how to let go, when you try so hard to forget & forgive but history keeps repeating itself?

Sometimes, when i pray i wonder how many mistakes & hearts have i hurt in my entire life. Isn't that called giving pain to another? And this is being a set back for me to progress not forgetting the crimes which i am still committing YET!

Happiness is from within.. that's what everyone says, but how many have really felt it i guess it would be just a number of them.  Well, maybe i have to keep on searching and hopefully someday i hope to understand what does all this means.
