International AmritVela Week



In Sri Japji Sahib, Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji tell us:

a(n)mrith vaelaa sach naao vaddiaaee veechaar II
In the Amrit Vaylaa, the ambrosial hours before dawn, chant the True Name, and contemplate His Glorious Greatness.

Discover Sikhi is proposing an International Amritvela Week, taking place next week in celebration of Vaisakhi. Amritvela is the time in the early hours of the morning during which Gursikhs wake up and recite their daily Banis and do simran of Vaheguru.

har dhhan rathan javaehar maanak har dhhanai naal a(n)mrith vaelai vathai har bhagathee har liv laaee II
The Lord's wealth is like jewels, gems and rubies. At the appointed time in the Amrit Vaylaa, the ambrosial hours of the morning, the Lord's devotees lovingly center their attention on the Lord, and the wealth of the Lord.



What do I do for International Amritvela Week?

The first thing to do is to do ardaas asking Guru Sahib for his Kirpa. Members of Discover Sikhi - take the challenge! Make a plan to wake up at amritvela. Get together with others and organize amritvela programs at your local Gurdwara Sahib or at houses of Gursikhs and receive the blessings of Guru Sahib together


And, once an amritvela program is in place, post in this thread and let the Sangat know. Please spread the word about International Amritvela Day.
