Give to get

Baba ji said if we want hugs then give hugs,  if we want love then give love,  if we want God inside us then see God inside all,  if we want money  and job and family and kids  then give up those wants and give your head to the guru,  give daswandh,  Give up hopes and wants to God, give everything  to him,  worry for nothing,  and he never stops giving, he gives us everything without asking.  By asking we get stuck in wants and maya's net, give all we have to him and he gives all he has to us.

Some experiences.

Ik onkar sat naam sat gurparsaad param jyot puran prakash Dhan Dhan sat parbrahm pita parmesar bless all ji dandout bandana ji   yesterday after amritvela, baba ji in our dream said "you stop saying satnaam, keep it going".   Then we got up and spent an hour on a humorous website we  go to alot, afterwards realised our bad habit, we could gave sung satnaam and kirtan for that time, we look at news sites when bored too.   So we did ardas and said to baba ji we will keep doing satnaam all the time now.     In facetime sangat dassan dass ji blessed all, we kept our forehead on their feet in our mind and did simran, felt lots of amrit and light. Haven't felt that for a long time. They are Param jyot puran prakash Dhan Dhan sat naam shining in human form. We really know that.   We are very lucky to have them.   They said "all the men here get attracted to a pretty white woman, but with naam, you appreciate the beauty of God, but without the lustful desirous negative thoughts."     Today after amritvela, we had a dream and a pretty white woman was lying with us, and instead of walking away this lonely donkey  said "can we have a hug" and she let us hug her.    We started showing off to  her about dassan dass ji being able to help her friend who is possessed.   Later we remembered we are married and we stepped away from her, then we left her and harsimran(daughter) was with us and we were looking for dassan dass ji, to confess but we felt bad how can we confess infront of our daughter.     When we woke up we realised that white woman is mata, we have the same test with her whenever we get serious about naam, seva and bandagi.     So we just cut her nose and chop her to pieces and do our confession.      When we don't feel loved by our wife, then this fool likes attention from women, but always realises and self confesses and steps back.   We just need satgurus lotus feet to fill our heart, mind and soul.  Please forgive me AGAIN. Satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam

From Satmeet ji;

Satnaam satguru ji dandaut bandna ji
Sab teri kirpa vadeyaii mehma
Na mein kiya na karne yog

In todays sangat at jasdeep ji we had vision which was very unique for us.
We were playing harmonium and jasdeep ji tabla. Then after some time we saw guru nanak dev ji accompanied by bala ji and mardana ji. Then suddenly guru nanak ji stand with tumbi in hand and start dancing.they dance with the tune of harmonium we play. Its all around sat sat sat sat sat sat sat sat sat sat sat sat sat sat.then we saw the tree under which guru nanak dev ji sat all the dasse patshaiya came one by one and stand in line then we saw baba ji sitting on the tree under which dasse patshiya stood. All the dasse patshiya had rope around there chest and the other end of rope was in the hand of baba ji sitting above.(just like puppet show).then we continue playing harmonium and saw app ji sittin on our back placing your left hand over our back and motivating us to play more and more harmoniun with sat.
Then guru nanak dev ji took flowers of white and red colour and shower over us and jasdeep ji.

Dhan dhan malaka tuhihai
Teri kheda tuhi janda
Mein ta ik kutta ha tera ban k rakhi apne charna naal.
App ji dhan dhan satguru satnaam ji
Sada dandaut bandna ji

Sister's sad childhood, but pain led her to naam and guru.

Satnaam ji, 

all the kids should read sister's childhood story below about her parents cruelty.    Always be thankful for what good families and parents you have been given,  and always pray for others in pain.

She sent it to dassan dass ji and called it a confession.  But dassan dass ji said it's not actually any of her mistakes, it's the story of her parent's cruelty.

.....
Dandauth bandana father ji, I've started writing my confessions from childhood and onwards bit a time
and was very nervous to write it on the group so I'm sending it to you father ji, please forgive me for my sins

CONFESSIONS

Starting from my childhood days

I always use to think my parents are the worlds worst parents in the whole wide world, because they were so strict, so controlling, so over protected we were not allowed to do anything without their permission it always felt like a time bomb ticking on our heads and that it would blast anytime now if we didn't even get the words right like 'Haanji' & were not allowed to speak in english etc etc over stupid little things we were not allowed to go out to the park which was literally right outside our house opposite the door!

The green grass, the fresh air, the swings, the noises of screaming kids the fresh air was so nice to hear at THAT time but there was no point in even dreaming about it because we were not allowed to go full stop. Once mum sent me down the paper shop to get a loaf of bread which was down the road, and I went straight in to the park & thought 1 quick ride on the slide then I'll go to the shop and I went on the long slide with my eyes closed which was really nice and then went to get the bread but when I got home I got beaten up for not doing as I was told to which was go straight to the shop and mum must have been watching me through the window and since then I said to myself I'm never gonna step in to a park it must be a big sin or something'  

And then even the minutes were counted how long it took us to run out of the school building when it was home time and Stupid stuff like that we were never praised at all by my parents or anyone else but always got told off.
Me, being a year older than the others was labelled the job of being a babysitter and had to help mum with every single house chores, taking away all my childhood time and  because I was born a premature birth I was always been picked on by my own parents making me feel its all my fault. And being bullied at school wasn't a big deal for me anymore  It didn't make much difference when others bullied at school I became use to it all and lost all my childhood days and always wanted to play games & stuff like the others
we weren't even allowed to watch t.v!
And I still remember the day when mum & dad went to a wedding taking 2 others along I was at home and when we are banned of doing something we just tend to go for it so I put on the t.v and started to watch eastenders because I had to write something for my school homework it was to write down scripts of any soap and I was trying to figure out the names of the characters but my sister grassed up on me and I got beaten up. Numerous stuff like that happened.
I'd always think how lucky other kids were at school talking about the way how their family's go out together etc etc
I never got the love from my parents and always thought it was my Fault for being a premature so now I have to face the consequences I'd always wanted my dad to put his hand over my head and assure me that we are here for you in all times good & bad I always wanted mum to hug me and say I love you and always will and that its not your fault
I always watched other kids at school chatting to their mums on parents evening as if they were friends.

I didn't want to face dad coz he was too much he was a heavy smoker and he use to punish us by marking us with cigarette burns and polluting the whole bathroom with smoke from cigarettes by closing the doors and windows and then mum & dad use to argue even she didn't like him doing that and then we had to use the bathroom like that which gave me a life term problem of being Asthmatic, it effected me more than the others and having another problem on top was hard when I had my neck problem I was coping with.
and I'm sorry but I cant forgive dad for that then I started to hate him even more and started thinking all men are like that.

Then I started college and from the beginning I always liked going to the gurdwara in fact I'm the only one in the family that went and I use to walk up a mile to go to gurdwara and I liked eating the parshaad then catch a bus to college and my tutor complained to the parents I'm always late then got told off again and the scolding never finished it kept on going for many days non stop.
Then I started collecting pennies from my bus fare money I use to get and I didn't  use to put in all that for the  bus then take those pennies to the gurdwara to buy some pershaad because I didn't know I was acting like a kid I got away for about a week then got caught by the bus driver to put in the fare properly
I didn't know because no one explained but didn't like to do so I thought we had to buy pershaad by dropping pennies in to the golak at that time because no one said anything because I was the only one going to gurdwara at the time.       

And now I still have the child inside me that I have to satisfy by playing games in the evenings I get my I.pod out and have to have a few games, like racing games, I have to watch some t.v I use to sit and watch t.v all weekend after doing simran but since I started going to sangat I've reduced it to only 2 hours in the evening because it also gives me company being alone.

..........

Gur Preeto:  But in Baljit's pain she has found her guru and got naam.    So always be thankful you didn't have to go thru so much pain to find your guru and get naam, that you got it in childhood .  So this is why we say to you young people, you have been given diamonds of naam and guru without much efforts in this life (your good earnings from past lives) but your danger is that you don't value this diamond because you got it so easily.  So you don't keep satnaam close to your heart at all times,  you forget to do what your guru tells you all the time.   And then the five demons will rob you of this naam amrit diamond because you were careless.    God bless all.

Careless... Cared less about satnaam diamond than you did about worldly comforts.  In the end God gives you what we all want deep down,  and if it's maya desires then naam gurparsaad is lost.  JO mangay takur soee soee DEVAY.

Dandauth bandhna to God in all.

The Art of satnaam

The Art of satnaam:
Be part of satnaam,
You are the heart of satnaam.

... Sudhakar ji

Let your faith be bigger than your fears

Satnaam

God bless all.  It takes courage to ask for blessings and for forgiveness and to confess.   

We are also big sinner  hypocrite, full of five demons,  we had given up thinking we can ever do bandagi,  only with dassan dass ji's blessings we have started believing and praying "sachay patshah we can't do bandagi please you get it done done by us by your grace."   we forget God all the time,  he doesn't forget about us, we are not kind to God in all, but God in all us kind to us,  the criminals of destructive thoughts try to rise up all the time, but we stamp on them mostly,  they fooled us too many times. 

But now by gurus grace,  we feel our chains are breaking and the sleeping giant is awakening,  the more we throw out fears, and worries and trust dassan dass ji's words and clasp them close to our heart,  the more our spiritual dreams come closer to becoming reality. 

We are very blessed to have this chance to be in the same time and place and space as Dassan Dass ji, Baba ji maharaj, but these days don't last forever.   If we get a chance to go to Sangat we should climb over icy mountains and swim the stormy seas to get the dust if our guru's feet.   We just have to have the thirst and not listen to our fears and they make it all happen.

Satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam satnaam.

We only have to show even a little love and guru opens our heart even more.  We only have to break our selfish thoughts a little bit and guru makes us even more selfless. We only have to pray even once with a true heart, and satguru comes running to hug us.  We only have to give even one penny and guru fills our account with pounds.  We only have to be hopeful of going to Sangat and guru takes away all the obstacles.  

But if we don't even try,  don't even get up to do simran for even half an hour,  don't even give even a few pounds in daswandh, don't even make effort to go sangat even once in a month,  then how can we reap anything divine if we sowed not even one seed?  

A poor farmer has only ten sacks of potatoes, his logic mind is in fear of starving, so he feeds his family the whole ten sacks, but in the end his worst fears still  come true and they starve.  But baba ji said if that farmer had taken just one tenth, one sack and planted it,  and ate the rest. Then he would have had another ten sacks the next year.

That is how  daswandh of simran time and money is multiplied by the guru field and comes back to us.     

Fears will make us starve, faith will ferry us across.   Don't  believe the logic mind when  our satguru is perfect, satguru mera poora, satguru mera poora.

From satnaam mata ji:

RAAM NAAM SAT hai
Baaki  ath nau dass hai

Kharhi ho bazzar vich ALLAH tu mnaah
RAAM NAAM Japp tu ohde gunn ga
Sat da heera tu chihre te sjaa
IK nu dhiyaa hoja sat te fanaah
Jeevat mar ke Tu mukt ho ja
Ath nau dass ton khehrha Tu shdhaa
Dargeh ch teri phir ho ju wah wah

Aape hi phir aap hai.
Aape hi phir jaap hai.
Aape Mai Baap hai.

"Tu hi tu Tera hi Tera
Tu hi tu bhagat te Bhagwan
Sda IK" - Baba ji

.....

God's name is Truth (Sat, also means seven in punjabi).

The rest is 8, 9 and 10 (logic mind calculating, not heart loving).

Stand in this market place and convince the Lord (of your heartfelt love).

Chant God's name and sing His praises.

And place the diamond of sat, Truth on your face.

Meditate on sat in such a way that you totally lose yourself and die in it.

Die whilst alive and become a liberated soul.

8, 9, 10 calculating logic mind, get out if it.

Then in God's court you will he praised as  wonderful, wonderful.

He Himself is Himself.
He Himself is His own meditation.
He Himself is the mother and father.

"You, only You,
Yours only Yours.
You, only You, are the devotee and God.
Always One."  - Baba ji.

Baba nanak singh ji and sat naam

By: Baba Nand Singh Ji kaleran

FOUR DOORS TO THE DIVINE :

Nimrata, Humility is the Divine Flavour, the most wonderful fragrance of the Lotus Feet of Lord Guru Nanak.

Four doors leading to the divine are:

1.Sat (Truth)
2.Sat Guru (Truth (is the) Guru)
3.Sat Name (Truth (is the)  Name of God)
4.Sat Purakh (Truth (is the) Being).

On this path of Truth falsehood can not tread. First door opens to a person practicing truthful living that leads one to the second door and he meets the Satguru. Then opens the third door and Satguru blesses the true aspirant - with Sat Nam (The Divine Name). Satguru then leads him through the fourth door to God (Sat Purakh).

Truth in its fourfold aspects dawns upon a true heart and reigns Supreme in his onward divine awakening and realization.

It is a fourfold upgradation.

Firstly, from animal nature to a human being by practicing truthful living.

Secondly, from a human being to a spiritual being.

Thirdly, from a spiritual being to Self-Realization.

Fourthly, from Self-Realization to God-Realization.
Unless the animal nature ceases and vanishes, one does not become fit for Nam Simran. Karma Philosophy is there to raise a human being to a level where he becomes fit for Nam. Good and pure Karmas purify the mind and make it fit for taking up the path of the Divine Name.

1. Karam Marg

2. Nam Marg

3. Bhagti Marg

4. Sehaj Marg

Pure actions (Karmas) lead us to the path of the Nam. True Nam Simran invokes the Grace and Blessing of Prema and Prema leads to ultimate immersion in Sehaj Avastha.

Unforgiven

Satnaam

Satnaam satnaam satnaam ji listening to gurbani shabad during simran it was saying  "God forgives only then we can sing his praises".   And how can we be forgiven? Only when we accept our mistakes as our own, confess them and ask for forgiveness.  Then in our dream we saw a mother talking to an upset child,  staying "forgive yourself, I forgive you."   made us emotional in our dream, mother is so kind. God is the mother who doesn't hold grudges, just we block our mind to God by not asking for forgiveness and even on being forgiven not letting go of our sins, even though God has deleted them.     Then we were running naked and wanted to cover up, means we don't want to tell our sins.     Baba ji said we have to be naked on the way to God.  No more hiding our sins, let them out, let them go.   We often think why are the masses unbelievers? Because they have no experience of God, because they are unforgiven.  Unforgiven not because God wont forgive them, but they don't accept their mistakes and ask for forgiveness.

Without hesitation

Satnaam

Without hesitation.    This phrase has been in our mind for the last few days.  Baba gives without hesitation.  Last year at Ufton  court we thought it would be too expensive to hire coaches for the whole Sangat to come to our place in Milton Keynes.  Thankfully we overcame our own wisdom when a penji told us off jokingly that we are only inviting guru but not others? So we requested baba ji to come and for sangat to come as well.  Still hesitating in our mind about the expense of coaches (not working last year, savings were low, money worries were high).   Right away baba ji, with love in their eyes, handed over hundreds of pounds for the coaches.   Again we hesitated to take it, but mata ji nodded at us.     

We learned due to our own fears of "what will happen to us if we give money to others"  we hesitate in doing good deeds of giving.   That is where we lack faith in our guru to take care of where the next money or food is coming from.  That is why we lose the moment.  

Baba ji says just keep our deeds good, truthful, sat, in the moment.  We should never hesitate to do good right now even if our fears are trying to make us hesitate.  When we have satnaam satguru we should have complete faith and no fear to follow their divine wisdom.   

Baba ji said a few weeks ago, that a dying man was told by the doctors his cancer was gone too far and would kill him.  He said, "I want to go back to nature like my ancestors (native Indians).  He lived in the forest for months and lived off the nut, berries, fresh water,  whatever nature taught him.   He came out cancer free.    We said to baba ji,  "but nature can also destroy a person in the wild."   Baba ji replied, "but nature wont do that to you."

So it made us realise when we are in logic we have fears.   Eg if we go to nature we will die,  if we give away money we will be broke. But we forget we are not like others.  We have the gurparsaad, we have God guru's grace with us.  And we should have full faith in it at all times.    

Baba ji said to us before we left sangat a few weeks ago,  "Preeto, no more fears and  insecurities."   this has really helped us. We have become so aware that every decision we take is based on fear of the possible negative future consequence of what we are doing.  So we have taken a step to take a contract job as per guru's blessings but when our fears come of,  "what if we have no job after 6 months?" or "what if we don't do well and they sack us after a week?"  We stop those thoughts now,  because we have faith in satguru's blessings upon us.  

We cant lose this moment in fears and worries and insecurities and anxieties, when we should have full faith in the gurparsaad, God's graceful hand upon our head. Only the ones without gurparsaad and not doing simran should worry. God bless all to do good deeds without hesitation.

No one as mean as me

There is no one as kind as my satguru, there is no one as mean as me.  

He showers me in diamonds of satnaam, but I roll around in the mud like a pig.  

He has open arms to welcome me but I turn away like a dog chasing other dogs.   

He hugs me and wipes away my tears but I run back to the cause of my pain.  

He has full faith in me, but I have fears and doubts about him.

He is selfless doing only good for me, but I don't see it as good and blame and complain.  

He lives in the light and I under the rock of the mind.   He can see my rock but I can't see his light.    

Fears are my downfall into the dark well, full faith is the rope to pull me out.   

Trust is bandagi, bandagi is waging war against maya. Maya traps us when have desire, want nothing, fear nothing, give everything, baba ji make us like you, become God. 

Satnaam satnaam satnaam.

India Sangat in Dec 2015

Satnaam ji Dandauth bandhna ji

Please email dassandass3@gmail.com for details and blessings to attend  India Sangat in patiala, Ludhiana and Amritsar in Dec.

Dassan dass ji said never to think about obstacles stopping us. Just have the thirst and devotion to attend sangat, pray for it like gurbani says "even if it snows I will go to see my guru."  

Baba ji said once "even if my leg was broken and gave me pain to stop me going to sangat, I would tell my leg 'I will cut you up and throw you in the fire'  and go to Sangat."     

We have to conquer the excuses of the mind and body,    then God helps us to get to the guru.  We pray everyday for guru sangat like this "gurdev sangat prabh Mel kar kirpa, hum moor papee jit lag taraa. Gurdev satgur parbrahm parmesar gurdev nanak Har namaskaaraa."    Guru Arjun Dev ji is saying "O Lord give me sangat of the divine Guru so that a foolish sinner like me can be saved.   The divine Guru is the Truth guru,  the supreme god, nanak bows forever to God (in) the divine Guru.

Last year when some sangat missed coming to Sangat because of worldly reasons,  dassan dass ji said we should never miss these golden opportunities,  the chance to meet your guru comes after many,  many lifetimes and is by great good destiny.   

"Bhaag hoa gur sant milaaiaa, prabh abinasee ghar meh paaia. By great good fortune I met the God guru as the sant. Then the indestructible Lord was realised inside." 

So we need the thirst, the hunger, the pain of separation should be so strong that we are praying everyday like a desperate soul to meet their guru. And when the chance comes nothing should stop us.  God helps us when we are determined.

Once when were asking baba ji  if it's OK for us to just stay at home and do simran because we where tired of the arguments from our wife to stop us every week, baba ji just said, "there is nothing like sangat."       And we just took courage and told our family "we can never leave our guru (but we can leave you)."  After that the arguments stop because they know they can't win. So have the same attitude to any obstacles you mind, body or family are outing infront of you.
