What happened?

Waheguru jio

Its tough man, sometimes it gets really tough. Ive been working on Wall Street now for 5 years, Dhan Guru Nanak, and my company is cutting people. Due to the highly specialized nature of our jobs, we have not been able to cultivate many skills marketable in other proffesions. Waheguru, it hurts to see people with mortgages, young kids in schools, payments and bills facing the possibility of not having a job. I have a lot of praying to do while im still around, and I need some help on this one. I feel like its way beyond me.

I know these changes were due for a long time because a lot of people were just out of control with their vices, but it still hurts to see people with the wind knocked out of them, sort of emptily continuing to do their jobs, facing the possibility of no livelihood in the future.

Waheguru your gonna have to do this one on your own Ji. Ill try my best to laugh and spread your love when you want me to, but im gonna have faith that you are gonna take care of these people. I know some of these people have bad karma Waheguru Ji or have some lessons to learn. But you and I, Waheguru we're close right? Please take care of them Ji... some of these people have made me laugh, inspired me, loved me... please take care of them Ji.




I know the path we have chosen may not always be clear, and that sometimes we make the wrong choices. I feel this is an opportunity to step back and maybe look at other paths that we missed or didnt choose. Its just so hard to step back cos we love to hang on to where we are. Sometimes people dont like to move forward either cos we get so comfortable. Waheguru help us with our fears, let us feel your light Waheguru... on our faces radiating your warmth. Waheguru help us find our paths, let your wind gently carry us in the direction of your will Waheguru.

This is my humble prayer to you Waheguru...

Waheguru ji..
I came into work today as normal and then a went to the bathroom. The stock I usually clerk for is Altria Group, and it looked normal in the morning, no big suprises, etc. Then when I came back it was trading down a lot, bad news was out. This is a major dow jones stock so I could feel a big situation developing. My boss Stevie came in and he was all business. That usually shakes me a little. I knew there was a funny interesting sensation that was with me in the morning while doing paath. It felt like something was with me, especially looking back now I definetly know there was some blessing with me. Waheguru...

So when a situation like this develops the media are all over it, and my boss was consequently all over CNBC and other networks while we were working. My supervisors asked Stevie if he wanted another, in their eyes, "more able clerk" to trade the stock with him. He had no hesitation and denied them, he wanted to do it with me.
Dhan Guru Nanak... now im in paath mode, full steam.
Gobinday, Mukanday, Udaaray, Apparay, Harrehung, Karreung, Nrinammay, Akaamay

So I cant believe what was going on, it was in the moment, and the Grace from God carried me, just carried me. I performed well above expectations, well above anything to be expected.
I was so blessed, the other clerks around me were taking care of me.
We usually order lunch out and I heard them decideing on wether to get me the veggie wrap or the burger. A couple of guys stood out and said, "he's vegeterian, make sure they put no meat" . Then my manager was so ready to serve me, he was like u know what, your getting both for lunch.
Waheguru... I dont deserve all this Waheguru. You are the one that did all this, not me Ji. All the glory is thine Waheguru...

So much attention, praise, jokes, directed to me... not mine Ji... all yours Waheguru.

Im learning Waheguru... your love sets us apart from everyone else. How else could people that have no idea what religion i am want to serve me? Its all your love, constant and infinite. Constant and infinite. Waheguru.

So Altria (NYSE:MO) ended up trading about 23million shares. And Baba Nanak sent his piarae to protect me and carry me... we did amazingly Ji. Thank you Waheguru...

I hope to tell our kids one day Charanpreet, that your dad gets a lot of love from above and is blessed to go to amazing places and do amazing things.

The spirit of the Warrior Sikhs is alive... be ready for anything, because they are.

How did ever get to have a job working on the New York Stock Exchange? Sometimes it passes me how much kirpa brought me there.
I saw an older Singh as I was crossing the road to Wall Street. He was just looking to cross as well and then I bumped into him and caught him by suprise. He was so happy to see another Singh pagh vala, Waheguru, his smile made my day. From the inside out. Waheguru. He asked me where I worked and I said I work on the New York Stock Exchange and he lit up even more, Waheguru ji..."oh thats good!". I know that he may not have the best job in the world, but somehow it hit a spot in his heart to know that Sikhi was alive and well, reaching such places were ultra elitests worked. Waheguru ji, he was so happy to see that Guru Nanak had reached such far far places. He made me realize how blessed I am to go to a place that has so much maya and darkness with this Sikhi saroop.
It is all things Kaljug rolled up into one place.. Greed, Ego, Lust, Anger, Attatchement... these things are rampant and easily seen. The will of the man made such a place, the will of God has sent blessed souls to help out those who want to let their light shine.

Im not Guru Nanak, but I can see him there too. He was the lotus of lotuses. Guru Nanak was one man against all odds, against all Kaljug, and all darkness. He sought and he conquered, not with weapons of harsh words feuled by hate, but love and attatchment to Waheguru.

Guru Nanak Dev Ji is there all the time, all around. Who am I? What did I do? Nobody. Nothing.

If you take yourself out of the way, then Guru will sit by you and come through you. If you attatch yourself to this worldliness then nothing but you and your finite self will come through. Full of your own personal biases from our experiences from birth, this jaman and previous.

The last few weeks have been amazing. Ive been blessed to be around such blessed souls. Souls that have been blessed with such material wealth and have realized that they dont have the peace. They still hunger for more, hunger for spiritual growth, hunger for God. Waheguru. At the end of the day, and you dont see this much at all... my boss, who is a managing director and partner in the firm gives me a hug. He usually gives me about 3 a day. And this is no low key thing, with every person looking on.
Waheguru waheguru its all your grace, all your grace. Such beautiful energizing hugs. Fills my being with such love...its truely my reward from God. Other guys have joined in too, giving so much love. I need no other payment. Its Guru Nanak giving me a hug. Waheguru... I sometimes forget to thank him, but I know theres nothing outside of his will and this poor being has no idea on how to praise the Lord.
I keep fooling myself into believing that I can, in the end I see its not me who can or cant.

I still am in awe of Guru Nanak who makes men who drive Porsches and wear Rolexs want to hug a man who pretends to rememeber the Lord.

Nanak says to the yogis in Sidh Gosht,
Destroying all sense of self, the true yogi is unattatched, With the truth enshrined within.
Out of the Absolute, by his own will, He became manifest;
Essentially Formless, He took many forms.


This God is all around everywhere, even with Kaljug blaring. I can still see the Guru, in the faces, in the faces, in the hugs. It draws some people closer, and others become envious and are lead away. This too is your vadiayaee Guru Nanak.

I dont know who I am, I dont know what to do, I dont know anything... yet somehow, by some amazing kirpa I am blessed to touch the feet of your servants waheguru.

Humbly trying to be your servant Guru ji...

Guru Arjun Dev Ji Sukhmani Sahib...
After wandering and wandering through many lives, O Lord, I have come and entered Thine sancturay.
This is Nanak's prayer, O Master that I may be attached to Thine devotional Service.

Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh


Dhan Guru Nanak Maharaj has taken to me many places and the opportunity to serve many people. I know I havent shared in a while, mostly because Guru ji is directing my energy to other things that occupy more of my time.

This is a bit more of un update on my life...

Charanpreet is my shining star and angel. Im so blessed by her, and glad that I have time till we get married to get use to seeing her bright light. I might fall if Guru ji didnt give me the time to prepare for that profound blessing. She is amazing and continues to suprise me every day... such kirpa has brought me to the charna of the Gursikhs of her Khalsa family.
I was going through a little difficulty realizing that the way the teach is different from the way I have come into Sikhi. I always was blessed with love, nurturing, experiences that had to be felt in the heart and then expounded upon.
Love knows no boundaries and surely is applied in many ways. As vast and infinite as is the universe is, as is the multitude of ways to love. I love God, but do I see God everywhere? He is surely everywhere, so how can I not love everyone and thing.
Such a duality does not occur in spirituality... There is only one God, Ik Onkaar.




Her Father, Dr. Balvir Singh Khalsa Ji is a great great Gurmukh. Such a rare and prized jewel of a soul, full of Guru's grace. Dhan Guru Nanak.
His way of teaching is a little different than I am use to... he's a saint and soldier, Sant Saphaiye. So I got a little detattatched due to my own fears and facing the reality of work I still need to do. But, Dhan Dhan Guru Nanak for the grace to see, this is the next course of growth in my life spiritually. I have been blessed not only with the wife of wifes, angel of angels... but also something I was asking for on another level... a teacher, a guide to bring me closer to my self, closer to the Guru and thus closer to the infinite.
Man this is gonna be some ride...hold on tight. Waheguru
