6 Hour Chaupai Sahib Jaap
Posted on May 28, 2009
Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa,
Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh,
The Khalsa is the army of Vaheguru himself, and the Khalsa Saint-Soldiers were created to defend the innocent and weak against tyranny and oppression. The Khalsa was formed to be a force which could always be relied upon for help, people that would never turn anybody away, a house that was always open to the homeless and the wounded
However, today it seems we have lost our way and rather than helping others, we find ourselves knocking at different doors asking for justice and protection. This is a small attempt to remind us that the only door we need to knock at, is that of the Guru.
Sagal duar kau chhad(i) kai, gaiho tuharo duar.
I have abandoned all doors (shelters) and I have come to your door, My Lord.Banhe gahe ki laj as, Gobind das tuhar
O God (Gobind), kindly protect my honour and grasp my arm, I am Your humble servant.
The aim is to collectively complete 1,000,000 Chaupai Sahib paath’s in memory of the victims of the 1984 genocide, to pray for justice, and for the chardi khala of the Panth. This is our chance to unite across the globe, pray together and demonstrate our unity on this issue.
