Amritvelaa


Quiet alot of people have been asking me about Amritvelaa recently. This shows that Amritvelaa is a big part of everyones life. It is at Amritvelaa that the Khalsa drinks Amrit Ras.

It is usually at this time that we get to meditate on Vaheguru without any disturbances. Some people get up at 1am, some at 3am, some at 5am, it all shows how much devotion you have for the Guru. The earlier you wake up the more sleep you sacrifice for your Guru.

If you want to wake up for Amritvelaa then you must do a sincere Ardaas infront of Guru Sahib and he will most definately bless you. Amritvelaa recharges our batteries for the day and keeps our Naam Abhiyaas ticking all day long, just like RehNsvaees keep our Naam Abhiyaas ticking for weeks. If you read 'In search of the Perfect Guru' by Bhai Rama Singh, you will note that he stresses so much on the importance of Amritvelaa.

Another point that I would like to bring to your attention is that we experience alot of our spiritual happenings at the time of Amritvelaa. Bhai Raghbir Singh who wrote 'Bandginama' writes that he used to get up at 12am without telling any of his family and do Simran, he writes that he experienced alot of happenings at that particular time.

Gurjeet Kaur Ji,
It tells you in the Preface of the book, when it is talking about Bhai Raghbir Singhs life. He also mentions somewhere in the book (somewhere in the first few chapters) about how he used to get up at midnight and do Naam Abhiyaas and he never told anyone. But, later on as he started developing in the Spiritual field he thought that it would be selfish not to tell other people of Spiritual happenings he experienced, as Naam is such a thing that when the right person does parchaar of it, it pierces straight through the heart.

We should really take inspiration from such Naam Abhiyaasee Gursikhs who led a life full of Simran, but we should aspire to be like Guru Gobind Singh Ji who was a perfect being.
