Satguru Uday Singh Ji UK dhora in May 2018.

Sri Satguru Uday Singh Ji graced the Sadh Sangat of UK from 17th to 20th May 2018. It was an unexpected ‘mini dhora‘. The Sadh Sangat had His pious darshan and blessing during gatherings in West London, Leicester and East London. The first two Asa De Vaars and one evening dewaan were hosted by Namdhari Sikh Sangat Southall. The dhora contingent then went on to Birmingham, Leicester and East London. In London the program of 19th May was dedicated in memory of Sri Bebe Dalip Kaur Ji and on 20th May, the sadh sangat remembered the late Prof  Tara Singh Anjan Ji.

Two Asa de Vars took place in the Namdhari Community center in Southall and the ‘shaam da dewaan’ of 17 May, was at the Navnat Community Hall. Shabad Kirtan was performed by local raagis – led by Sant Kirpal Singh Panesar & UK jatha. During the Asa de Vars of 17/18 May 2018, Raagi Kirpal Singh sung melodic raags and shabads performed included:

  • ਕੋ ਬਨਜਾਰੋ ਰਾਮ ਕੋ ਮੇਰਾ ਟਾਂਡਾ ਲਾਦਿਆ ਜਾਇ ਰੇ ॥
  • ਏ ਸਰੀਰਾ ਮੇਰਿਆ ਇਸੁ ਜਗ ਮਹਿ ਆਇ ਕੈ ਕਿਆ ਤੁਧੁ ਕਰਮ ਕਮਾਇਆ ॥
  • ਘਰ ਮਹਿ ਠਾਕੁਰੁ ਨਦਰਿ ਨ ਆਵੈ ॥
  • ਪ੍ਰਭ ਦੇਖਦਿਆ ਦੁਖ ਭੁਖ ਗਈ ਢਾਢੀ ਕਉ ਮੰਗਣੁ ਚਿਤਿ ਨ ਆਵੈ ॥
  • ਮੈ ਕਰਮਹੀਣ ਕਬ ਹੀ ਗਲਿ ਲਾਵੈ ॥

The closing solaks of Sri Adi Guru Granth Sahib were read to conclude a paath in memory of Mata Kirpal  Kaur Bhamra (w/o Sant Joginder Singh Bhamra) who sadly passed away on 6th May 2018. Mata Kirpal Kaur and family has done selfless seva during Sri Satguru Partap Singh Ji’s visits to East Africa and Sri Satguru  Jagjit Singh ji’s dhoras to Kenya & UK. She was a devout member of the Southall Sadh Sangat.  Shardaanjali (tribute) were said by Southall General Secretary Ajeet Singh.

Earlier the raagis recited the bani of Guru Teg Bahadur – shabad  ਪ੍ਰਾਨੀ ਕਉ ਹਰਿ ਜਸੁ ਮਨਿ ਨਹੀ ਆਵੈ ॥ (Praanee Ko Har Jas Man Nehee Aavai) and the Bhagat Ravidas shabad  ਜੋ ਦਿਨ ਆਵਹਿ ਸੋ ਦਿਨ ਜਾਹੀ ॥ (Jo Dhin Aavehi So Dhin Jaahee).

Historic Moment In Southall


2-4 June 2017 Sri Satguru Uday Singh Ji's Visit to UK
Southall Visit: Sri Satguru Uday Singh Ji blessed the UK sadh sangat during a short 3 day visit. (Friday, June 2 to Sunday, June 4, 2017). This visit to the UK included his first visit to Namdhari Sikh Sangat Southall (NSSS), since attaining Gurgaddi in 2012. NSSS hosted the first Asa de Var of the dhora on 2nd June. The rest of the events took place at Namdhari Gurdwara, East London. It has been 17 long years since the last visit to the Southall premises by Sri Satguru Jagjit Singh Ji. The desire and passion for this long waited blessing was clearly reflected by attendance and mood of the gathered sangat. – as Guru Nanak says “Were a hundred moons to rise and a thousand suns, the light so created will be but utter darkness without the Guru” . The Asa Di Var kirtan was recited in the early morning hours in a very melodious way and style. Ustad Harbhajan Singh and raagi Kirpal Singh took lead and it was sung collectively by UK based musicians. The Asa di Var was interlaced with soul searching Hymns (shabads). Before the conclusion of the program Sri Satguru Uday Singh Ji delivered his pavitaar updesh to the sangat.

Sri Satguru Ram Singh ji is ranked as one of the personalities who shaped the millennium. Sri Guru Ram Singh considered political freedom a part of religion. He had lasting influence which changed the history and outcome of British rule in India. Satguru Ji's wisdom and philosophical outlook contributes to mankind and had influence on its contemporaries. His contribution for gender equality on its own, takes him to the top of the list of supreme reformers of the world. Sri Satguru Ram Singh Ji preached for goodness of whole mankind. Such was his charisma, that during his fight for India's independence, it rekindled Sikhism in thousands of Sikhs who became to be known as 'Namdharis' or 'Kookas'.
Dhan Sri Satguru Ram Singh Ji ..

Sri Satguru Ram Singh Ji was in the line of great spiritual leaders of the world, but he had vivified his spiritualism with action and sacrifice. After the downfall of the Sikh Government, when utter demoralization had set in among the Sikhs, Sri Satguru Ram Singh Ji re-kindled into them the spirit of Guru Nanak and Guru Gobind Singh and chalked out a programme of action to train them in the mission which the Gurus had come to fulfil.

In 2016, Namdhari Sangats all over the world will celebrate the 200th Anniversary of the birth of Satguru Ram Singh Ji
