Guru Granth Sahib Academy - Weekend Retreat Registration - October 9-12
During the three-day intensive seminar, participants will engage in a comparative study of the Sri Guru Granth Sahib. Through lectures, workshops, and other activities, we will explore the prevalent theme which emerges from the Shabad Guru and assess our current state, institutions and practices in this light.
Theme Shabad: ਸੁਣਿ ਮੁੰਧੇ ਹਰਣਾਖੀਏ ਗੂੜਾ ਵੈਣੁ ਅਪਾਰੁ ॥ਪਹਿਲਾ ਵਸਤੁ ਸਿਞਾਣਿ ਕੈ ਤਾਂ ਕੀਚੈ ਵਾਪਾਰੁ ॥
ਦੋਹੀ ਦਿਚੈ ਦੁਰਜਨਾ ਮਿਤ੍ਰਾਂ ਕੂੰ ਜੈਕਾਰੁ ॥ਜਿਤੁ ਦੋਹੀ ਸਜਣ ਮਿਲਨਿ ਲਹੁ ਮੁੰਧੇ ਵੀਚਾਰੁ ॥
ਤਨੁ ਮਨੁ ਦੀਜੈ ਸਜਣਾ ਐਸਾ ਹਸਣੁ ਸਾਰੁ ॥ਤਿਸ ਸਉ ਨੇਹੁ ਨ ਕੀਚਈ ਜਿ ਦਿਸੈ ਚਲਣਹਾਰੁ ॥
ਨਾਨਕ ਜਿਨ@ੀ ਇਵ ਕਰਿ ਬੁਝਿਆ ਤਿਨ@ਾ ਵਿਟਹੁ ਕੁਰਬਾਣੁ ॥੨॥
