Siri Singh Sahib stories

Hari Jiwan Singh shares a monthly story about his personal experiences with the Siri Singh Sahib Ji.

Yogi Bhajan: Forgive and Let Go, Flow

There are ladders and steps, Moguls and Mongols (metaphorically), all sorts of challenges on the path of ascendance. There are also great rewards. One or the other usually stops us, stops us from ascending further. Consciously or unconsciously, we reached our limit. All of us learn to live within these limitations.

Yogi Bhajan: Spirituality Who?

I laugh when others judge another’s spirituality. "Oh, he’s not really spiritual. He fakes it." Well, fake it til you make it. "She’s just diluting herself. She’s following her own course." Well, what if her course matches up with Infinity? Nothing’s right or wrong, thinking makes it so.

Yogi Bhajan: God's Favor

The secret to spirituality is to not be worthy of God’s blessings, but to be willing to be a blank canvas on which God can paint His masterpiece. This is a wide open secret because the secret is in the experience surrendering your opinions, judgements, ego to God’s paintbrush - period!

Yogi Bhajan, Prayers Come True

I am experiencing so much gratitude for the Miracle of this Path and the Power of Love. For me they are my saving grace. And for me the best part is that this opportunity is open to all! I wanted to share a story that came to me that illustrates this miracle.

There wasn’t much you could do for the flu a century or so ago. One of the few things you could do was to go to your local chemist, drugstore, as they were called back then, and ask for a bottle of Laudanum which was just tinctured opium.

Yogi Bhajan: Faith in Keeping Up

I hear it said everywhere, ‘The definition of insanity is doing the same thing over and over and expecting a different result.’ Well, this is right and wrong at the same time. Through one window, science, it’s right; through the window of the arts, it’s wrong. Please, let me explain.

Yogi Bhajan: Sharing

Life is not going to get better, at least not in the foreseeable future. That is, if you don’t have a release valve. Change is difficult enough when we choose it. And when unwanted change is cast upon us, it has the potential of being unbearable. Say hello to the immediate future.

Yogi Bhajan: Advancement

It turns out that the biggest hindrance to advancement on a spiritual path is “I”. Like always, “I” gets in the way. The “I” referred to is the ego, and when it’s used for any purpose other than defense, the I, ego, halts advancement like a car slamming to a stop avoiding an accident. Please, let me explain how this works.

Yogi Bhajan: The Change Trend

Sat Nam Dear Family,
With the pandemic, the martyrdom of George Floyd and the swell of social activism, new questions are being asked of government, society and ourselves. We are being challenged philosophically, socially, economically politically, and spiritually. And all of this is causing a lot of pain and change is painful.

Short Story

“One day, Guru Hargobind was riding on his horse. He stopped. He asked the accompanying Sikhs. He said, “There is something moving on that garbage pit. What is it?”

“Lord, it is garbage, maybe some dead animal?”

He said, "I don't know, whatever it is, could somebody go and check it out for me?"

So they checked it and they saw a child. And they said, "Sir it's a boy, it is a child. Somebody has left it here. But it’s very dirty." Gundaa-i, it’s dirty!

Yogi Bhajan: Amortized Faith

Why do prayers work, not work, or only work sometime? It’s not a difficult question to answer; it is a difficult answer to do! Let me explain it from my experience.

The more faith you truly have, the more your prayers become answered. When you're so trustworthy that God has merged with you, he allows you the grand prize of making your life a constant prayer, your prayer.
