		<description>We all know the Guru's word is the truth. They have never tried to lead us toward the wrong path.
If Guru Gobind Singh Ji told us it is very important to take amrit then it must be done.
When I was contemplating taking amrit a wise man told me "You should not have to think so much about doing the right thing, it is the wrong thing you should think twice about."   Without amrit you will be subject to the cycle of birth and death. Your good deeds will count, they always do.  Think of this- there some dogs who live very good lives,diamond studded collar,bottled water,spa treatments. Then there are dogs who have nothing to eat , no shots, no vets only disease then death. The difference between these dogs is the deeds they did in their previous life.
Guru Gobind Singh Ji told us that after taking amrit we have been alotted ONE THOUSAND lifetimes to achieve the ultimate goal!(although we should try our best to do it in one.) But still that is awesome. And that is the power of amrit.</description>

		<description>In response (13 Nov 2005 @ 3:44)to Soni Singh of 27 years of age now - I am responding for his bravery to except bravely and openly say on web that in spite of him from Sikh family - had amrit - wakes up @ amrit wela - recites all 5 bani's and doing all other rituals --- " that he is still looking for peace and calmness ".  
		First of all I think now that I should make more time to read such a nice discussions of you guy’s.  A prayer deep from the heart is very very powerful which also comes with true love.  Soni Singh spend more time in simran / meditation not only for 2-1/2 hours (with ginti minti as this 2-1/2 hour is just for us to be Sikhs / humans / and living) but while doing your work also and that will create love in you for guru which automatically will make you to cry and forget your myself – and deep in that you will find one day yourself doing prayers while in sleep &#38; early in the mornings also @ amrit welae and you will not realize &#38; remember what peace and calmness you were forcing your self to look for.  Till one do not see/feel (pani sang pani with) him that eagerness should always stay.</description>

		<description>With the Grace of Waheguru, I have been trying to wake up at 2:00 AM to do Naam/Gurbani jaap. I have had a lot of success but there are those days when I do get into a debate with myself and end up staying in bed. After watching your video, I don't think I will have as many debates with myself anymore. One thing I wanted to share with everyone is that after doing simran and gurbani jaap at amritvela, I do sometimes go back to bed for an hour or two so that I won't feel too tired or sleepy in the office.</description>

not sure how things work, but wouldn't you save bandwidth costs if you made the videos "download only" instead of people being able to view them directly on your blog?</description>

		<description>SHALOK, FOURTH MEHL: 
He has spiritual ignorance within, and his intellect is dull and dim; he does not place his faith in the True Guru. He has deceit within himself, and so he sees deception in all others; through his deceptions, he is totally ruined. The True Gurus Will does not enter into his consciousness, and so he wanders around, pursuing his own interests. If He grants His Grace, then Nanak is absorbed into the Word of the Shabad. &#124;&#124; 1 &#124;&#124; FOURTH MEHL: The self-willed manmukhs are engrossed in emotional attachment to Maya; in the love of duality, their minds are unsteady. Night and day, they are burning; day and night, they are totally ruined by their egotism. Within them, is the total pitch darkness of greed, and no one even approaches them. They themselves are miserable, and they never find peace; they are born, only to die, and die again. O Nanak, the True Lord God forgives those, who focus their consciousness on the Gurus feet. &#124;&#124; 2 &#124;&#124; PAUREE: That Saint, that devotee, is acceptable, who is loved by God. Those beings are wise, who meditate on the Lord. They eat the food, the treasure of the Ambrosial Naam, the Name of the Lord. They apply the dust of the feet of the Saints to their foreheads. O Nanak, they are purified, bathing in the sacred shrine of the Lord. &#124;&#124; 26 &#124;&#124;</description>

		<description>Sat Nam,
 I look forward to hearing what you have to share:) I have been thinking about receiving Amrit much (it has been consuming my thoughts). However Oh mera man..I have been blessed with a school of thought..I feel....why ..How will I reach and serve all humanity if I commit self to single dharma, which is one and all Dharma... closing doors, we are all Sikhs, learners disciples of our creator... If I wear bana and daastar I feel I am limiting myself to the world. I am wind, I am earth, I am you, you are me. I aware of all the pratical, scientifical, spiritual, social reasons for bana and our roop. We can reason everything and anything, it must be experienced to live Gurujeevan yet a truthful existence...Just like Gurbani is so Vahoo beautiful, but can also just be words if they arent projected from the heart center, throat chakra  where we experience the world symbolically through vibration and of course proper pronunciation of Gurmukhi... I know the answer resonates internally within...waheguru for contemplation. 
Kirpa naal(l)

2) Why do we have to take Amrit and wear the 5Ks? My heart is clean; I practise charity; I help at the local hospital; I work hard in life – Why do I need to take Amrit? Surely, being a just "good" person should be my ticket to heaven. Didn't Guru ji say there is no Hindu and no Muslim – So why should we restrict ourselves to be just Sikhs. Isn't it more important to be a "good" being? Don't you think we are being too ritualistic by getting into these various religious "compartments".</description>
