The 25th Paurī (bahutā karam) is well known for bringing wealth, gifts and prosperity, and yet the Siri Singh Sahib Jī taught my mother and many others the importance of also reciting the 38th Paurī (jat pāhārā) to bring oneself to a state of higher consciousness; to gracefully handle and sustain the wealth and prosperity gained from…

In the realm of Dharma, what matters is that we learn. The Siri Singh Sahib Yogi Bhajan, used to say, “The Universe is a University.” Sikh simply means a seeker of truth, or a student. So the earth, this place where the Spirit comes into form, exists for the Naam, the Divine Identity, to learn.…

I love this 33rd Paurī from Gurū Nānak’s Jap Jī and use it regularly as a stopgap for many situations. God is the Doer and provider of all (not you or Prince Charming). You can repeat this Paurī to neutralize the destructive nature of the ego, to be free from self-vengeance, from being too critical, to clear the…

As every cell receives life, it also stores history: every cell, and not only the ones in the brain, is the organic substratum, the biological ground, of the subconscious. The totality of our cells is the hard drive of personal experience. That is called “cell memory.”…

The Siri Guru Granth Sahib is usually embodied in a large, all Gurmukhi single volume. This is referred to as a “Bir”, meaning something that is fastened together. Today, with the world-wide demand to have access to understanding the meaning of the words of the Siri Guru Granth Sahib, there are many copies…

In the 31st Paurī, Gurū Nānak states authoritatively that God prevails everywhere in the Cosmos. He tells us, āsaṉ lo-i lo-i bhanḏār; that God has His seat in every world. Again Gurū is telling us that there are worlds upon worlds that we, as mortal humans, are unaware of.…

How can the same term evoke the creative, nurturing and caring qualities of a mother as well as the misguiding illusion of the world? In the 30th Paurī of Jap Jī Sāhib, Gurū Nānak reveals the true nature of Maya and the process of creation. …

These days we are so busy, constantly bombarded with information, opportunities, responsibilities, and distractions. There seems to be an urgent need to slow down, breathe, and learn in a new way that seeps into your consciousness and your life — so you experience a deep satisfaction in your soul. Taking time for mindful…

In the twenty-ninth Paurī, Gurū Nānak asks us to connect to our infinite hearts through our inherent, divine wisdom and compassion. Experiencing this incredible gift of connectivity unites us with our source and thereby with everything that is, while living in any other way is uncomfortable and lonely. …

This Pauri from Jap Jī is very important. Mundā santokh, tolerance and unlimited patience, is the highest power you can have. Mundā are the earrings, which yogīs wear in the solar center to denounce the world. It is the sun meridian point: this little lobe represents your head with the central part of your intelligence in the center. When…

In the beginning of the 27th Paurī Gurū Nānak tells us about the gate to God’s home. Everybody now is interested in getting information about God’s home, like a Google Map to God. They are perhaps more interested in receiving a miracle than a description of the path. At least we get to know, that it…
