Jaap Sahib English Katha #12: Chand 123 - 149

Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa
Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh

We are going through Jaap Sahib
and we have got up to Chand 122

Some people complained to me
over the internet

They said that "you didn't tell us
what was happening, other programs".

This is not the only program that we do.

We do a 12 week course which
has been going on for the last 9 weeks now

In Norwood Green, next to
the Khalsa Primary School.

For the last nine weeks, there's
people here that are on that course.

We've been going through Sikh history
from Guru Nanak Dev Ji

We're not just going through history,
we're going through philosophy as well.

It's a course called
the Vaheguru Course.

There's leaflets at the front.

You can find out more
about what we're doing.

We're trying to teach a
12 -week course over there.

We've got the weekly Katha over here.

We're also going to universities
and colleges and doing Katha there.

And also YouTube videos online.

It's not just this Katha.

If you come here on Sundays,
find out about the YouTube channel.

There's some leaflets here.

We started to do Parchaar
in the streets.

We started to tell people
who are not Sikhs,

in Oxford Street, Central London,
what is Sikhi?

And invite them to the Gurdwara

Because it's not that
Guru Sahib said don't preach.

Maharaj says:

So we should be telling
people what is Sikhi.

We should encourage them
to do Naam Jaap.

It's not enough to keep
Sikhi to ourselves.

It's a beautiful diamond
that we have, Sikhi.

But it's for everybody.

God is Guru
of the universe

If Guru Gobind Singh Ji is our father,

Then our father has put the
responsibility onto his children.

He said:
"Khalsa, you are my children."

Now I put my responsibility upon you.

Now you do it.

We can't sit here waiting for Guru Sahib
to come back and do it.

We have to step up.

If there's problems in our Panth,
we have to look to solve them ourselves.

It's not enough to always say
somebody else should do it

In the same way, if you want
to support this effort to do preaching

to the new generation with history,
philosophy, Katha, and other things,

You can give 10% of
your earnings to us

and we're trying to get
people doing it full time.

There's no single Giani in this country
who is working part-time

They're all full -time.

They work with the Gurdwara and
they do Seva, which is very vital Seva.

Without the Gianis in the Gurdwara's,
the Gurdwara wouldn't work.

We know that.

But they can't preach to the new youth.

They know themselves
they can't do it.

Even if they do it in Punjabi,

the new generation need to understand
it in modern examples in English.

Giani's sometimes have a problem because
if they speak to the sisters of our Panth

the young girls, then the Sangat
sometimes start pointing fingers.

"What are they doing?"

There's a bit of a conflict.

But in our Panth,
I saw a post this week,

A very disturbing post that
they're encouraging other people

other religions are encouraging their
youth to go out with Sikh girls

because they want to convert
the daughters of our Panth

How are we going to help
those girls to stay in Sikhi?

We're not going
to force them.

We're not going to shout at
them and guilt trip them in.

We need to make those girls strong.

The only way to do that is to
arm them with education,

to educate them about our history
and about what Gurbani says.

The only way our Panth can stand up
from where it is now

Is if every single person
helps it to stand up.

If it's a very heavy weight for
one person to carry

but there's five people all
helping, it's very easy

We need to join together and
lift this weight of our Panth

Our Father has given us the
responsibility to do this.

So we have to do it.

The preaching, we're trying to
make it full time

I've started to go
full -time on preaching

there are other people that
want to join now

So we need the Sangat to support them.

So help us that we can
sort our own problems ourselves

We've been given this order by
our Guru so we need to do that

If you want more information,
there's leaflets here

But as going on last week in Jaap Sahib,
we got to the 122nd Chand

So we've passed halfway now
and now our Maharaj says:

Vaheguru Ji, you destroy my enemies

You destroy them

You look after the poor,
you are with the poor

You look after us

Your abode is very high,
where you are is so amazing

You are both the master of the earth,
and you are the master of time/

Time and earth is all in your control

Maharaj goes on in the 123rd Chand

If somebody is batameez,
they haven't got any politeness.

Maharaj says:

Tamaam means hundreds and thousands
of people, millions of people.

Maharaj, you have spread politeness
to millions of people

People who were impolite before become
polite when they get blessed by you

If you look at people who were outside
before they came into Sikhi,

they might be really uncouth.

When Maharaj blesses them,
they start to speak nicely.

They start to become
polite people

Even Maharaj says that if you walk on this
path of Sikhi, the world will praise you.

Maharaj says:

You get politeness
as well

People know that in a holy place,
we should be polite.

They intrinsically know that in
a Gurdwara, we shouldn't be swearing

They might swear in
the street just outside.

When they walk in the Gurdwara,
they become polite

Those people that
worship you Vaheguru Ji

The ones who concentrate upon you

Those people who worship you,
you give them the wealth you have

What is the wealth that they give
to the people that worship them?

Spiritual knowledge.

The spiritual wealth that Maharaj has,
he gives to those people that worship them

They don't hold it back.

If you come towards Guru Sahib they come
towards you more than you go towards them

You take one step,
they take thousands of steps.

So they are openly giving.

Hareeph is an enemy.

Somebody who is not your friend
is your Hareeph

Azeem is big.

Maharaj, you are bigger than my enemies.

My enemies think that they are big.

Maharaj, you are bigger than
all of my enemies.

Therefore, you destroy those people
that are my enemies

and you protect those people
who are virtuous.

Virtuous is what we are trying to become.

Maharaj says that you become virtuous
and Vaheguru Ji will take of your enemies.

Then Maharaj says:

Razza is your daily Roti.

What do you eat?

Maharaj says, you give food to those
people who believe in you.

Faith.

Those people that have faith in
Vaheguru Ji, he gives them their food.

Maharaj says:

Anek means many, many, many
millions

Tarang is like a wave.

A wave in an ocean.

Maharaj, you are millions of waves.

How can there be millions of waves?

Obviously, we think of them as the ocean.

But every single wave is like that
devotee that comes out of Vaheguru Ji.

There is no difference.

As Guru Gobind Singh says in their prayer:

out of the water comes a wave and
that wave goes back into the water

That's why every single devotee that
came out of the ocean of Vaheguru ji.

Who looked separate but
goes back into Vaheguru.

Every single one of you
was a light of you Vaheguru Ji.

Maharaj, no one knows your mystery.

No one can destroy you.

You are undestroyable.

Apang means to destroy.

The word Nivaaj means to look after,
like Guru Sarib Nivaaj.

Maharaj looks after the poor.

What is the word Azizul?

Azizul means those people
who love you Vaheguru Ji.

Those who love you Vaheguru Ji,
you look after them.

This is a "Kh" with a little dot
so you have to say it with a "Kh"

Maharaj, those evil doers, my enemies

The word Khiraj means to punish them,
to attack somebody.

Even in the old days
if you look at the Sikhs

when they did something wrong, they
wouldn't see it as punishment for Maharaj.

They would say is Maharaj
giving me my earnings?"

If you look at the punishment for doing something wrong,

Bhai Nand Lal, when he wrote it, it was called

Tanakhaanama. When you get paid for doing something wrong.

So Maharaj says that you tax those people who are

the enemies of ours.

How do they tax them?

Because the Jamdood always comes with a Danda to tax

them. So if they do something against you, they are

going to get punished.

They are going to get taxed.

They are going to have to pay back what they

did wrong. Then Maharaj says, Nirukat Saroop Hai, Trimukat Beput

Hai, Prajukat Prabha Hai, Sujukat Sudha Hai.

Oh Vaheguru Ji, You are Nirukat Saroop Hai.

The word Ukat is a word from Sanskrit.

It means to grow.

So Nirukat means that you are something without any root.

Tata Koi Beej Ni, Tata Koi Jad Ni.

There is nothing that you came out of.

When a bee is like the seed, it grows out

of that. But Maharaj, you came from yourself.

You have no seed, you are yourself.

So you are Nirukat.

Your form is the essence of everything, but you have

no root. You are Nirukat.

But also, the word Ukat means Katha as well.

So do Katha of something.

So you are Nirukat.

No one can do Katha of your Saroop.

Your Saroop is beyond any comprehension.

No one can come here and say, I will tell

you what God looks like.

It is not possible.

Then Maharaj says, Beput means matter.

The five Tath, the five Tath.

So, Your matter is free of all the three things.

Mukat means to be without, Mukti.

And Tre means three.

Tre Mukat means that your matter is not attached to

Rajogun, Tamogun or Satogun.

Those three qualities of matter, they do not attach you.

You are Mukat of those three and that is your

Pippoot. So we can't understand your form because everything in

this world is full of these three things, but not

you. The Maharaj says The word Prabha means the glory,

the light of Vaheguru.

And Pr Pugat.

Pr means separate, Para, not your own, but Paryana.

And Pugat means to consume.

So Maharaj, your glory, your amazement is away from consumption.

No one can consume your glory.

You are so unique.

No one can even say that I have had all

of your glory.

Your glory is beyond Pugat.

No one can endure your glory, Maharaj.

They will be wiped out.

It's like saying that I can go and enjoy the

sun when I am right next to the sun.

You can't. By you trying to enjoy the sun, you

will be wiped out.

Maharaj is like that.

No one can even consume their glory.

They are beyond anything.

And then Su is beautiful.

And Juggat means the joining.

And the word Sudha comes from Amrit.

As in the glory of Vaheguru.

The Amrit of Vaheguru.

So you are joined, Maharaj, to Sudha.

Everything about you is about Amrit.

You are joined to Amrit.

So whenever we join to Vaheguru, we feel Amrit.

Now some people say that doesn't make any sense.

But Bani tells you that Bani is Amrit.

So when we sit here and read Gurbani, then we

connect to them and straight away we get the Amrit

of Bani. When we take Amrit from Guru Gobind Singh

Ji, from the Panj Pyare, it's the same thing.

They make Amrit with Bani and finally when we start

to make that Amrit come alive inside us, when we

make that Amrit Pargat inside us then we feel the

Amrit dripping down.

Some people say there's no such thing as Amrit dripping

down. But then how would they explain the Bani that

says stuff like Maharaj says that That doesn't make any

sense unless we understand there's an inner Amrit and the

inner Amrit is that Naam Amrit.

As we start taking part and Bani inside us, then

we will feel the Ras dropping down upon us.

And that is the Sudha.

Maharaj, you are Sujugat.

You are joined to that Sudha of Amrit.

Then Maharaj says Sadevang Saroop Hai Ape Di Anoop Hai

Samasto Paraj Hai Sada Sarab Saj Hai Oh Vaheguru Ji,

you are Sadevang Saroop Hai.

Your form, Vaheguru Ji, your Saroop is Sada.

It doesn't ever gonna run out.

It's not like Vaheguru Ji's Saroop is ever gonna finish.

It's forever. Sadevang Saroop Hai.

It's Sada Hai, it's Aad Hai, Jugaad Hai, Happy Hai

and Hoseep Hai.

Your Saroop will never go.

And Ape Di Anoop Hai.

You are Ape Di Maharaj Ji, no one can ever

know your mystery.

And Anoop Hai Maharaj Ji, your Upma cannot be done.

Anoop, Upma cannot be done.

No one can ever praise you enough Vaheguru Ji.

Samashto comes from the word samasti which means everything, everything

in the world.

Samashto means to grow.

So you are the growth of everything.

There is nothing in this world Maharaj that is growing

unless you are supporting it to grow.

It is not like you can be independent from Vaheguru

Ji and grow by yourself.

Everything. We have no strength to live.

We have no strength to die.

It is all in His hands.

That's why Maharaj says that you are...

You give growth to everything.

Vaheguru Ji, you are always...

For everybody... Saj can mean to create.

Kisi nu saj na means to create.

But also... Saaj also means to make something beautiful.

If something is just like a rock and somebody carves

it into a sculpture, then they made it beautiful.

So you are always decorating us, you are always giving

us honor for everybody.

There is no one in this world who can get

anything apart from your Kirpa.

The Maharaj says Oh Vaheguru Ji, you are Everybody Maharaj,

everybody is saluting you.

Not only do they man you, they also salam, they

also bow down to you.

Forever Maharaj, for always you are Akaam, you are without

any desire. And Your form maharaj, your saroop cannot be

niribad, without baad.

Baad means to reduce, to reduce in any one way.

So your saroop maharaj cannot be reduced.

So you can never be killed, you can never be

shortened. And maharaj, agaad hain, anoop hain.

Oh Vaheguru ji, you are agaad, you are the deepest

of the deep.

You are unfathomable and you are anoop.

Your praise can never be done enough.

And maharaj says Oh maharaj, you are oang aad roopey,

anaaad saroopy, anangi anaamey, tribhangi trikaamey.

Oh maharaj, you are oang aad roopey.

Your roop maharaj, your form is oang aad.

What is Owang?

Owang is that primal sound that made the world.

We talk about Ikka Owang Kaar.

That Owang is a sound that made everything.

You Maharaj are that Owang.

You are that initial energy that made everything, the sound.

And Aad. Even before that Owang, you were there.

You are both Owang and you are both Aad.

Before that sound even came from you, you were there.

Owang Aad Roope.

So not only are you before time, you are also

the start of time, the energy that made everything.

There is no other sound, no other energy in this

world that is separate from you.

You are everything.

Owang Aad Roope.

Owang Aad Roope.

An Aad Roope.

But Maharaj, even though you are Aad and you are

Owang, you have no Aad.

You are Unaad.

Your form doesn't have any beginning.

You are Unaad Roope.

Your Saroop does not have any Aad.

And then Anangi Anamme Maharaj Ji, you have no limbs

You have no body If somebody doesn't have any body,

they have no body Anangi Anamme The word Aam can

mean disease So one meaning of this can be you

have no name But the other meaning of this is

Maharaj Ji, you have no disease You have no body,

you have no disease No one can harm you If

you have no body and no disease, no one can

cut you There is nothing about you that anybody can

even touch or come close to or destroy And Tere

Bhangi Tere Kaame Maharaj, you are the destroyer of all

three worlds Tere means three And Bhangi means to destroy

Tere Bhangi The heavens, the earth and the hells You

will destroy all of them But Maharaj Tere Kaame The

word Tere means again three Kaam means desires So not

only do you destroy all these three worlds, you fulfill

the desires of those people inside those three worlds.

Us, the demons and the heavenly beauties, they ask of

you and you fulfill their desires.

Everything is in your hands.

So you are Tire Kame.

You give and you destroy.

Maharaj, you are Tire Bargang, Tire Baadeh.

Barg means a type.

Like Varg. Varg is a type as well.

So Tire Barg.

You have three types, Maharaj.

You have three types and you kill.

Baad means to destroy here.

Tire Baadeh, you kill all three.

Who are these three?

You kill all three types.

Well, it could be Brahma, Vishnu and Mahesh.

They are made by you, but you're going to destroy

them as well.

But also it can mean Rajogun, Tamogun and Satogun.

All the matter in the world has these three qualities.

But all the matter in the world will have to

be destroyed at one point.

So it's going to go back to you.

But also it can mean those three worlds.

The heaven, the earth and the hells.

All three types, you are going to destroy all three.

Aganje, Agade. Maharaj, you cannot be destroyed though.

Aganje means that you cannot be destroyed and Agade.

You are so deep, no one can ever understand you.

Maharaj says Subhang, Sarbh Page.

Oh Maharaj, this Pag means the fortune.

Like when we come to Gurdwara, they go Vada Pagi

Ho. Vada means big.

Pag means your fortune.

You have a big fortune, you're very lucky.

So when Maharaj is saying Subhang, Sarbh Page, Subhang means

beautiful. So Maharaj, you write the beautiful fortune of everyone,

of Sarabd people, everybody in the world's beautiful fortune is

written in your hands and Maharaj Su Sarba Anurage.

Sarba means everyone, Anurag means love and Su means beautiful.

Su Sarba Anurage.

You are the beautiful love of everybody No matter what

people fall in love with, actually they fall in love

with Vaheguru Because wherever there is beauty, that beauty is

from Him. It's not from anywhere else So whenever we

love something we think oh how beautiful is that?

Actually, we're praising Vaheguru in one way because it comes

from Him. So Subhang Su Sarba Anurage So thinking about

love, thinking about Vaheguru, let's join in for a little

bit of Simran, and then we'll carry on with the

Katha of Jawab Sahib.

Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru,

Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru,

Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru,

Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru,

Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheg Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru.

Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru,

Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru.

Vaheguru Vaheguru Vaheguru Vaheguru Hey Guru Ji, Wahey Guru Ji,

Wahey Guru Ji, Wahey Guru Ji, Wahey Guru Ji, Wahey

Guru Ji Vaheguru Ji Vaheguru Ji Vaheguru Vaheguru Waheguru, Waheguru,

Waheguru, Waheguru, Waheguru, Wahổهجورو.

Vuh vuh. Vuh, vuh Guru, vuh Guru.

Vuh Guru, vuh Guru, vuh Guru.

Vuh Guru, vuh Guru, vuh Guru.

Vuh Guru, vuh Guru.

So Maharaj says - Maharaj, You're the beautiful love of

everybody. The Maharaj says next.

Tere bhugat saroop hain achhij hain ashoot hain, ke narkang

parnaas hain prithi ul pravaas hain.

O Maharaj, you are tere bhugat saroop hain.

Bhugat means to enjoy something, to consume something.

Tere bhugat means to consume all three.

So your form, your saroop is there to consume the

pleasures of all the three worlds.

Everything in the world is consumed by you Maharaj.

So Maharaj, your form is there to enjoy the delights

of all the three worlds.

So there's nothing in this world that is unknown to

Vaheguru. But we have to stay within Mariyadah as well.

We might want to consume all those three things as

well. But some things are not for us.

They're not good for us.

But they can consume everything because they are perfect.

They cannot be touched by any of those things.

But for us, we might be not so strong.

So that's why Maharaj says, Maharaj, let me not fall

down short. You keep me up.

So we have to restrict our desires and control our

calm for those things.

Maharaj says then, You cannot get old.

You are achhij hain.

And you are achhut hain.

You cannot be touched.

But actually, in the same way they are Achuth, they

can't be touched by Kam, Krodh, Lobmo, Ankar.

Yes, they are beyond that.

But also they are Achuth because they are the lowest

of the low.

We think of God being the highest of the high,

but also they are those Achuth Lok.

The people that are outside the caste system, they are

called Chuth. Maharaj, you are the Achuth, you are the

one who is the lowest of the low.

So we should protect those people who are the lowest

of the low as well.

That's what the Khasa was made for.

The Khasa wasn't made to serve the people in the

highest position of powers.

We were made to serve the people the lowest.

Help those people.

Maharaj says, Maharaj says, that hell is hell.

Parnaas means destroy.

Narakam parnaas. Maharaj, you can destroy even Narak.

Those people are living in hell.

They could be in a living hell.

You destroy those things as well, Maharaj.

You take us out of that living hell and you

give us mukti.

That hell is hell.

Prithi ul pravaas.

That hell is hell.

Prithi ul pravaas.

Prithi is in your vast.

The whole earth is in your vast.

You control it.

The earth is in your power, Maharaj.

They say Maharaj, you are Your prabha, your glory, your

katha even, your greatness, your vadyahi is nirukat, is without

root. It cannot be done.

Something which is without root doesn't exist apart from them.

So your glory cannot be ever done.

It is nirukat prabha.

But also, Maharaj, because it is your shine, your shine

doesn't come from a root.

It doesn't come from any kind of root, so therefore

it comes from yourself.

You don't need something to shine you up.

You are shining from yourself.

You are Saapang.

From yourself, you are shining.

Saapang. And then Sadevang Sadaahe.

You are forever and you are Sadaah.

Sadev, Sadaah. Same thing, you are forever and ever.

You will never go.

And then Tri -Bhukat Saroop Hai.

Maharaj, your form, your Saroop is Tri -Bhukat.

Bhai -Bhukat means that you don't need to eat anything.

You don't need anything to sustain you, Maharaj.

Like we said a minute ago, you are Nirukat.

You don't need something to grow from and nor do

you need something to sustain you.

We grow from a cell, from an egg, and we

become humans. But we need always to consume.

Take food away from us, we will die.

So they grow from nothing and they need nothing to

sustain them. But earlier Maharaj says, Tri -Bhukat Saroop Hai.

They consume everything but they need nothing to consume.

So we can never understand them.

They are beyond our understanding.

Then Maharaj says, Pra -Jugat Anoop Hai.

Maharaj, you are joining your jugat to other people, to

Para -Jugat. The way you join to other people is

beyond any kind of praise.

We can never do enough praise on how you join

to us or join to other people.

When we see a Sant Mahapurakh and how they join

to Vaheguru Ji, it's beyond any praise.

We think, wow, how amazing is that person.

When we get inspired by people who are joined to

Maharaj, then we think, wow.

We praise you because you praise those people that you

are joined to.

Maharaj, then Guru Gobind Singh says, in the 132nd, they

say Notice the last line of this Chant is the

same as the last line of the 131st Chant.

So these two Chants, there is very little difference between

them. They are just a few letters that have been

changed backwards and forwards almost.

And the reason for that is that it's kind of

like a marker.

It's going to come to the end.

But you have to work harder to memorize them as

well. Guru Gobind Singh has made it harder because one

is almost similar to the other one, but they're different

and they're one after the other as well.

So that's why this is the longest Chand in Jav

Sahib. And also it's one of the hardest ones to

actually memorize fully.

Because Guru Gobind Singh is setting a test for the

Khalsa. Because the Panj Pyare are only meant to be

those people that memorize the whole of the Panj Baniyya.

Sometimes we see nowadays one person being the Panj Pyare,

who knows one Bani Kanth.

And somebody else has got the other Bani Kanth.

One person has probably got all five Kanth.

And he's given Jav Sahib duty.

And that's not the best way it should be.

The best way should be that every single one of

those five should be able to do any of those

Panj Baniyya. Muj Bani.

So Maharaj says Forever Maharaj, forever you are nirukat.

You never need a seed and also your Katha can

never ever be done.

Forever. There's never going to be a time where suddenly

people will be able to do your Katha.

Your nirukat is sadaa hain.

You're always going to remain without Katha and you're always

going to be without any root.

Your shine Maharaj, your prabhaa is bebhugat.

It doesn't need any energy to shine that way.

And also your glory is that you consume everything.

And the Maharaj says Your saroop Maharaj is anukat.

Anukat is the same as the previous word nirukat.

Because nir is without, just like nirpo and an is

without. So anukat saroop hain.

Your form is not from any seed.

And also the word ukat can mean to search something.

So Anukat means no one can ever search your form.

It's not like we can look finally one day and

find them somewhere because their form is without any kind

of search. We can never find it.

And then again, Par Jugat Anoop Hain.

The way you join to other people, Maharaj, is amazing.

It's beyond any kind of praise how amazing you are

when you join to people.

And Maharaj says, Chachri Chand.

So in the next couple of chants, there's three chants

and then we'll be at the three quarters of the

way through Jap Sahib.

So these three are quite small after this very long

chant and they're kind of like a marker.

So as you divide Jap Sahib into little markers, you

can say that After the beginning part, you've got three

chans to get to the middle.

Then you've got three chans to get to the quarter

of the way through and then four chans to get

to halfway through.

Four more chans to get to three quarters of the

way through and then three more chans to get to

near the end.

So it's like three, four, four, three.

So there's different ways of you to make a system

in your head of how to memorize, on how to

kind of compartmentalize that part in your head to get

a structure to it.

Maharaj says, Chaachari Chand, Maharaj, you cannot be destroyed.

The word hain has got a little tippy on top.

That's to show respect.

Maharaj, you have no limbs.

You have no body.

Maharaj, you have no clothes.

You have no costume that we can describe to you.

Maharaj, your story cannot be written.

Lekhna means to write.

You are alekh.

Your karam, your account cannot be written.

A parm hain.

Parm means to be in illusion.

Maharaj, you are outside of any illusion.

A parm hain and then a karam hain.

You are without any karma.

Karma means you can't do any actions.

There is nothing that you do that comes into counting.

And in fact, there is not one thing we can

point to that they did.

It all happens amazingly, but you can never figure out

and pinpoint them and put the blame on them.

Because it happens for some other reason.

That's why you can never find God that way.

You have to experience them.

We are not going to find them by saying that

happened by them.

And then a karam can also mean that you don't

do any rituals, Maharaj.

Karam kaan means rituals.

So you are beyond all rituals, Maharaj.

Only love is the way to you.

You are unaad maharaj, you have no aad, you have

no beginning, you are without beginning and jugaad hain.

At the beginning of the jugs, the beginning of all

time, we have the four jugs, when they first started,

you were jugaad, you were there at the very beginning

of the jugs.

And then ajay hain, ajay hain, ajay means to win

someone, jay. So we say jay, jay, sada jay, sada

jay, pagoti. So maharaj says jay means victory, so ajay

hain, no one can ever win over you maharaj, you

are ajay hain.

And abay hain, ab bhi ho, you are now maharaj,

just like Nanak, hai bhi sach, you are here right

now. You are without any matter.

The word Poot comes from Bepoot which means matter and

you are Apoot.

You are without any matter.

You are Nirankar and Atoot.

The word Toot can mean an idiot.

Maharaj, you are never an idiot.

You know everything.

We might become idiots at some points.

We might get some Gyan at some points.

But you are always always in Gyan.

You can never get lost.

And also somebody who is drinking, we can say becomes

an idiot. In Punjabi, it is Tutta Hoya.

He has become a bit drunk now.

Because people that drink, they do become a bit foolish.

We know that.

If you stay sober, if you used to drink and

now you stop drinking and you hang out with people

that are drinking around you, you notice they all become

more and more intolerable.

Because that level of conversation is gone.

Because you are sober and they are not.

So that is what Maharaj says.

You are Atoot.

You are free from all Nasha.

You are never ever confused.

Maharaj, Anas Hai.

You cannot be destroyed Maharaj.

Your Naash can never happen.

Naash means to be destroyed.

And then Udaas hain.

Maharaj, you are separate from everybody.

The word Udaas can mean sad.

So you are never sad.

But also when Guru Nanak Dev Ji went travelling and

they were separated from their family, we call them Udaasis.

So the Udaasi people are separate from the world.

So Maharaj, you are Udaas hain.

You are never joined to anything.

You have no attachment.

You are separate from everything.

Atand hain. Maharaj, you don't do any Dhanda.

You don't do any job.

You are separate from all these jobs.

All of us have jobs.

We know, Monday morning, we have got Adhanda to go

and do. Got to go to work, got to go

and do something.

We can, we might have fun to ourselves.

But everybody has Adhanda.

Maharaj, not you.

You are Adhanda hain.

You don't get trapped in anything.

You are without any bandhan.

We want to be free from bandhan.

But the ideal bandhan is our Guru's bandhan.

So even though we can break out the bandhan of

Maya, if we get to our Guru, He is abandh,

but we can become His bandhe.

Abandh hain. The Maharaj says apagat hain.

Maharaj, those people who are the enemies of pagats, they

are from you as well.

We might think that He is only the pagat, but

actually He sends all those people that come to torment

the pagats. But actually, you save those people as well.

The pagat gets saved from the apagat by you.

So the game is all yours.

It's your kher, Maharaj.

And then, biraqat hain.

The word biraqat means like nirlep.

You are not joined to anything, Maharaj.

You are totally unattached to this world.

You cannot be destroyed, Maharaj.

Your Naash can never happen.

And then Prakash.

The word Prakash is enlightenment.

You are pure enlightenment, Maharaj.

When we join to you, we experience that pure enlightenment.

That's just one form of you.

The Shabad is another form of you.

But the Shabad is going to give us Prakash as

well. Maharaj says, Maharaj, you have no Chinta.

Chinta means worries.

You have no Chinta.

You are Nichint.

And then, Maharaj, you listen to everybody.

You listen to every single person's desires.

Even when sometimes we do Ardaas, we don't have to

say the words.

They know. Sometimes inside us we think, I wish this

happened and it's a bit dangerous.

because it might just happen.

So be careful what we even ask for in our

mind because even those things sometimes we ask for them

but actually Guru Sahib can give you those things and

later on you realize that's not what you needed.

It might have been bad for you, but you asked

for it anyway and in His greatness He gave it

to you. So Sunintahain.

He listens to everybody and Alikahain.

Maharaj, you cannot be written down.

Likna means to write.

You are Alik.

No one can ever write you down.

Bani is one form of Vaheguru but it's not the

only form of Vaheguru.

We say Poti Parmeshankarthan.

Guru Granth Sahib Ji is a very form of Akaal

Purakh but just one form of Akaal Purakh.

They have three forms.

The Bhagat is another form of Akaal Purakh.

The person is joined to Him.

But also Vaheguru themselves are totally near -lip from the

world as well.

And then Maharaj says, Adik hain.

Dikna means to see something.

You are Adik, Maharaj.

No one can ever see you.

No one can see you at all.

Then Maharaj says, Alek hain.

You are outside of Lekha, Maharaj.

No one can ever write your form and what you

did. And then Apek hain.

You are outside of costumes, Maharaj.

No one can ever say you are this close or

you are that close.

You are beyond all of these things.

Ata hain. You cannot be knocked over, Maharaj.

No one can tar you.

Wherever you are, you are solid.

And then Aga hain.

Maharaj, you are so deep.

You are beyond any understanding.

We can never understand how deep and how amazing you

are. Maharaj, you were never created.

Samb means like Saipang.

You are self -created, you are a Samb.

You have no root, no one made you.

You were never created.

And you are Agamb Hai.

You are Gambhir.

The word Gamb means like you are beyond our understanding,

Maharaj. So we can never understand you.

You are very deep.

Agamb Hai. Anil Hai.

We said this in Japji Sahib.

Anil means you are without any Neel, you are without

any mark. You are totally pure.

You are without any Daag.

You are totally pure.

And Anad Hai.

You don't have an Aad, Maharaj.

You are Unaad.

You have no beginning.

Anit Hai. Nith means daily.

Anith means not always.

But Vaheguru Ji has been told us you are Sadaah.

So you are always.

So what is Anitha?

The world. The world is Anith.

One day it is here, one day it will be

gone. But you are that world.

You made the world and you are inside the world.

You are this impermanent world.

You are permanent and you are impermanent as well.

Because this world will go.

But the word Anith can also mean not the usual.

Like Nith -Nith means daily.

Routine. So we have our Nith name.

It is our daily routine.

But sometimes we do something which is not Anith.

Which is a bit unusual.

We might decide to do like maybe Sukhmani Sahib Paat

or Rasa Diwar.

So that is our Anith name.

It is not Anith name.

It is something different.

So Maharaj, you are Anith.

You are not the usual.

You are amazing.

And the Khasa Paant is also not the usual.

When we think about people, they might do attacking to

us, but we might not attack them back because we

are Dayalu. Somebody said the other day, why do we

help them when they attack upon us?

Because that's how we are.

We are that Niraala Panth.

We are not the normal.

We are the Pradhan of the world.

We have to act in a way which is beyond

any comprehension. It's the unique way.

Bhagatan Ki Chaal Niraali.

So you are Anit Maharaj.

You are extraordinary.

Now, you are Nit.

Sunit means you are beautiful and you are Nit.

You are always there, Maharaj.

Just like our soul will never die, you will never

leave. So you are Nit.

You are always.

Maharaj, you have no caste.

There is no caste system that you are part of.

But the word Jat can also mean birth because your

Jat is a term of a way you are born.

So you are Ajaat, you are never born Maharaj.

You are free Maharaj.

You are Ajadi.

When people want Ajadi, that means they want to be

free. But you are Ajaat Maharaj.

You have no restrictions upon you.

People say to us, Oh, you Sikhs, I'm not sure

that you believe in one God.

That's a strange question to ask of a Sikh.

We actually believe Vaheguru Ji more to be singular than

a lot of other religions.

They put restrictions upon them.

They say to God, you can't do this.

You can't be in the world.

You are separate from the world.

You can't be in this thing.

You can't be in that thing.

We don't say any such thing to Maharaj.

We say you are Ik and you are Ajaat.

You can do whatever you like.

Some people don't understand reincarnation.

They go, it doesn't make any sense.

Why would God make such a thing?

But they are Ajaat.

They can do it if they want.

We don't place restrictions upon Him.

And also we don't have any devil.

The reason people made the devil up because they couldn't

understand the bad stuff in the world.

They didn't understand why the bad stuff happens.

So they said there must be somebody else who is

causing the bad to happen because God cannot be bad.

There you go.

See they put restriction upon Him.

They said He cannot be.

How can we tell what Vaheguru Ji can and can't

do? He is Ajaad.

He can do whatever He likes.

There's no such thing as a devil.

Everything is His creation.

He made Maya and He made Himself and everything is

His option. So therefore we believe in the One more

than any other Tarahm out there.

There's no Tarahm who believes in the One more than

we do because we accept He does every single thing.

The Maharaj says.

Also the word Ajaad can mean Aaj Aad.

Your Aad Maharaj is free of a Janam.

The word Aaj can mean Janam and your Aaj, you're

beyond any birth and Aad.

You're beyond birth and you are the beginning of everything.

So this is the next Chand now Maharaj says.

Sarbhang Hanta Hanta means to destroy, to kill.

Maharaj, Sarbhang Harta, you kill everybody.

See, we just talked about it now that he is

Ajad, straight away he says he kills everybody, there is

no one else that kills anybody.

Sarbhang Harta Then Sarbhang Ganta Maharaj, you count everybody's karma.

You can reach every single person because you keep an

account of them.

But you don't keep an account of yourself because you

are Akaram. So Sarbhang Ganta, you reach everybody.

The word Sarb means everybody.

Sarbhang Khyata The word Khyata comes from the word Khyati,

Sanskrit word. And it means Pargat.

Pargat means visible.

You are Sarbhang Khyata.

You are visible inside every single person, Maharaj.

There is no one person in the world who you

are not inside and we can't see you in.

There is a famous quote by Yogi Harbhajan Singh.

Some people question him, but he has an amazing quote.

He says, if you can't see God at all, you

can't see God at all.

And that's what the world is like.

We judge people.

That's not true.

You are Paragat inside every single person.

And those people that get the Pakti, they get the

Prakash of Vaheguru inside them, they also start to see

Vaheguru inside every single thing.

That's why Maharaj says Those people that get blessed by

Maharaj, they start to see C God everywhere.

Maharaj, you know everything about everybody.

Gyaan means Gyaat.

Gyaat comes from the word Gyaan.

Sarbhang Gyaat means you know about everybody.

You know exactly what we are doing for every single

person, every one of us.

He knows. And then, Maharaj says Maharaj, you kill everybody.

You are the doer, Maharaj, of everybody.

You make everybody and you do everything.

Maharaj, you are the breath inside every single person.

The word Pran is our life force, our breath literally.

So Sarbhang Pran means he gives breath to every single

person, but also the word Pran means our life.

So he gives life to every single person.

Maharaj, you give everybody strength.

The word Tran means taan, means strength, Sarbhang Pran.

In fact, you make things happen this way.

If anything happens, it's because someone has the strength to

do it and you gave that person that strength, Sarbhang

Pran. Maharaj says, Sarbhang Karma.

Karam means to do something, so Sarvam Karam means Maharaj,

you do everything.

You are the force that causes action to happen.

You are the Karan and the Karan.

You are the doer and you are the reason for

it to happen.

But also the word Karam can mean Kirpa, the Persian

meaning. So therefore Sarvam Karam means you give Kirpa to

everybody, Maharaj. Sarvam Karam.

Not only do you give Kirpa to everybody, Maharaj, you

are also the religion.

You are in all religions.

You made all these religions.

The word Dharam means religion, one meaning of it.

So you are in all religions, Maharaj.

But also the word Dharam means righteousness.

You are in all righteousness.

When we do something good, that's a godly act.

That's why it's Sarvam Dharamam.

You are in all godly acts, Maharaj.

Sarbhang Jogta The word Jogat is like a method.

A method to do something.

What is that method?

The method that we do to earn ourselves our food.

Sarbhang Jogta Maharaj, you have given every single person a

certain job to do by which they earn money.

When I got into recruitment, first time, I looked at

the jobs that people did and I was surprised.

Is this less?

You think, I didn't know there were people that existed

that did this kind of job.

You think there must be somebody who does this, but

you never think there is somebody who does 10 more

jobs. So every single job out there is created by

Him to give us sustenance.

He is thinking of every single person and He has

found loads of little things that they can all do

so they can eat and they can get their rosy

roti. We don't see the roti coming from Him.

We think we got it from our employer.

But he made it happen So he had to think

of a job for each one of us to do

so we can get our roti because every single meal

is By his grace.

So therefore he had made the whole system.

We don't even see it.

It's invisible But it's there He made it happen.

So Maharaj you are Sarbang Jukta Sarbang Mukta Maharaj you

give liberation to everybody.

No one gets Mukti apart from for you.

Rasaval Ras means with loads of Ras This Chand is

full of Ras Maharaj is saying is full of flavor

now. There's many Ras we talked about this last time

There's many many Ras B Ras as well and it's

Pakti Ras as well.

There's many Rases in the world So Maharaj says Rasaval

Chand this Chand Maharaj is full of Ras different types

of Ras and it's by your grace, Maharaj It's by

your Kirpa I bow to you Maharaj, you destroy even

the hells in this world Maharaj that we might be

trapped inside I bow to you because you can destroy

that Narak Sadaivang Prakash Maharaj your Prakash, your light is

Sada, Sadaivang is forever.

Your light will never go Anangang Saroopay Maharaj your form,

your Saroop has got no Ang, Anangang has no body

so therefore you are Nirankar and then APANGANG BEBOOTTE Maharaj,

you are APANGANG.

You cannot be destroyed.

So you are APANGANG and BEBOOTTE.

Beboot means, one meaning of word Beboot can mean your

things. The things that you have, your Khajana, your treasure,

it cannot be destroyed.

No one can come along and rob you of anything.

But also, the things that you give us, Maharaj, your

KIRPA of Naam, these things, they cannot be taken from

us. They are APANGANG BEBOOTTE.

So like it says in Japji Sahib, When we start

to come towards Vaheguru, the wealth that we get from

Vaheguru, the food that we get from Him, cannot be

robbed from us.

It is APANGANG.

It is indestructible.

It will stay with us as long as we stick

close to Him.

And then Pramatham, Pramathay, Sadah Sarabh Sathay, Agaad Saroopay Nirbhaad

Bebootay Maharaj, you are Pramatham, Pramathay.

The word Pramath means to destroy, destroy other people.

So those people who are Pramathay means those people that

are destroying other people.

But you are Pramatham, Pramathay.

Maharaj, you destroy even those people that destroy other people.

Somebody who thinks he is great is somebody who is

destroying other people.

So Maharaj, you even destroy those people.

And then you are Sadah Sarabh Sathay.

Maharaj, you are forever Sadah Sarabh with everybody Sathay.

You are the friend of everybody.

You are with every single person on the planet.

Sadah Sarabh Sathay.

Agad Sarupe Maharaj you are Agad Sarupe.

Your form Maharaj is Agad.

It is unfathomable.

We cannot know how amazing you are and you are

so deep we can't understand you.

Nirbade Beboot. Maharaj your property, your Beboot is Nirbade.

It cannot be reduced.

Baad means to reduce or Nirbade.

Your things that you give us Maharaj, they do not

come down. You always keep on giving.

We get tired of taking but you keep on giving.

Nirbade Beboot. Anangi Anamme Maharaj you are Anangi.

You have no body, you have no limbs.

And you are Anamme.

Anamme. The word arm means disease.

You are unarmed.

You have no disease.

You cannot be touched Maharaj and you are.

Also the word Anamme can mean you have no name.

So Maharaj, you have no body, no limbs and no

name. So what are you?

We don't know what you are.

We can't understand somebody who has no body and no

name. What do we call him?

He is beyond comprehension.

And then? Maharaj, you are the destroyer of all three.

All three worlds, Maharaj.

The heavens, the earth and the hells.

You destroy all three.

But you are the desire of all three.

So for those people of all three worlds, you fulfill

them. You fulfill all three.

Maharaj, your form, you destroy them and you look after

them. It can't be destroyed.

It is beyond destruction.

Everything about you, Sarbhangi, everything about you Maharaj is Anoopi.

There is not one part of you that we can

praise and fulfill the praise of that thing.

Every single part of you is beyond praise.

You are Sarbhangi Anoopi.

The Maharaj says next, Na Potre, Na Putre.

Maharaj, you have no grandchildren.

And you have no Putre, you have no children.

You don't have any of those.

Na Satre, Na Mitre.

Maharaj, you have no Kshatriya, you have no enemies.

And you have no Mitre, no friends.

Na Taathe, Na Maathe.

Maharaj, you have no father and you have no mother.

No Mata and no Taathe means father.

So you have Na Taathe, Na Maathe.

No father, no mother, no one made you, Maharaj.

You have no caste, you have no caste and you

have no path.

You have no clan, no no sub -caste as they

call it in English.

You are beyond these things Maharaj.

We should try to be beyond those things as well

if you want to follow his footsteps.

Maharaj says, You are Nirsakung, you have no relatives Maharaj.

You have no partners, you have no nobody who is

married to you alone.

Your partner, you are Nirsakung.

You are Amittho, Amikha.

Maharaj, you are Amittho.

Your greatness, your Vadiayee is Amit.

Amit means to count, Amit means beyond any counting.

So you are Amittho and Amik means deeper than deep.

You are both beyond any Ginti and you are deeper

than deep, Maharaj.

We come to the end of this chand now.

Maharaj says, Your glory, your shine is for always.

It is never going to get short.

Their glory will always keep on shining.

It is like the sun has an end point.

The sun is amazing, but it has an ending.

But not them.

Their glory will never come to an end.

The Maharaj says, Oh Vaheguru Ji, you are Ajay.

No one can be over you.

You are Ajay and Ajahay.

You will never go.

But the word Ajay also means now.

You are now and you are forever.

You will not go.

So Aja means you will not go, Ajay means now

you are and you will never go, you are here

forever. But also the word Ajayakain means you have never

taken birth. You have never taken birth and you never

will take birth, Maharaj.

You will never come and you will never go, but

you are now and you will never leave either.

So they are beyond any comprehension and they are forever

here. So our job as a Gursikh, as a Sikh

of the Guru is to follow that.

To live in the way that is permanent.

Live in the way that will always bring us greatness

in that place.

Don't be like, oh I will do Bhrit Mahanath Naam

on the weekends and during the weekdays, don't do it.

Live the permanent life, do it every day.

Live the way forever that will bring you Vridayai from

Maharaj. Don't just give up alcohol for a month and

then go back to it.

Don't just stop doing something for one month.

Stick to it, keep it up, keep going and follow

this way because it is the most amazing way ever.

There's no Jatha today.

So we've got a few more minutes.

What we'll do to think about the way that is

permanent is to go back to Simran.

So we'll finish off with a bit more Simran.

Call that Vaheguru Ji.

They are amazing.

We have got 249 of Jaap Sahib.

So we're now three -quarters of the way through.

So today we got through quite a bit.

Let's try now and focus upon that one who made

us. We've done his Vidyaayee, we looked at his greatness.

We've kind of looked at the different qualities of him.

But now we should try to connect to him because

that's the point of all of this.

It's not to just talk about him, it's to connect

to him. So we'll do some Simran now.

Get your mind to focus upon Vaheguru Ji.

Say the words, focus upon the sounds of how you're

saying them and focus upon how you hear it as

well. Vaheguru ji, vaheguru ji, vaheguru ji, vaheguru ji.

Why, why he grew?

Why he grew.

Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru, Vaheguru Vaheguru, Vaheguru This program goes on

every week, every Sunday at 6 p .m.

onwards for about an hour.

So please do come, bring your family, your friends.

I believe south of Birmingham, maybe even north of Birmingham,

south of Leeds maybe, this is the only weekly program

of Katha of Gurbani.

We don't tend to go into history that much, a

little example, but in just English Katha of Gurbani.

So we really need to try and get more people

to come here, especially those people who've already been turned

away from Gurdwara.

They've always already lost hope in learning anything in Gurdwara.

It's often the case that if you go to a

class and you don't understand something and again and again

you keep going to that class, you don't understand anything.

In the end, you're going to stop coming.

That's what's happened in our Panth.

A lot of people have stopped coming to Gurdwara because

they don't think they're going to learn anything there.

So what we need to do is those people that

don't think they're going to learn anything bring them to

Gurdwara on a Sunday and say at least sit here

for one hour, you might learn something.

It's not saying that I know anything, the fact is

it's Gurbani. Gurbani is everything.

It's Sarabh Gita, all the Gyaan in the world is

in Gurbani. So even if we try to explain Gurbani

at some point we're going to end up explaining something

which is amazing because Gurbani is amazing.

We can't do Katha of it enough, but Gurbani guides

us. So if we keep on talking about Gurbani the

word of our Guru, the letters of our Pita will

come to us, we'll understand them.

So we're going to finish off there.

Of course, I've made loads of mistakes in this Katha,

so please forgive me.

Next week, we start going through the last quarter of

Jaap Sahib. So it's going to take a couple of

weeks to get through that.

There are many bits that are very deep in there.

There are lots of Persian words that are coming up.
