This is shown to be A GROSS MISLEADING of the VERY BASIC CONCEPT of AMRIT VELA in GURBANI and SIKH REHAT MARYADA. The response by Karminder Singh was, essentially, that this is any time the Sikh chooses.

The question regarding the timing of “Amrit Vela ਅੰਮ੍ਰਿਤ ਵੇਲਾ” was to lay-preacher Karminder Singh. In other words a Sikh MAKES his own AMRIT VELA. It means Amrit vela is THAT time during which a Sikh sings, discusses or discourses (VICHAR) d virtues and greatness (VEDIAYAN) of God. The verse AMRIT VELA SACH NAO is actually deﬁning AMRIT VELA in Gurmat. In fact most thefts and break ins happen during this early morning hours. IF 2am till 6 am was AUTOMATICALLY good then no one would steal or rob during this period of time. Meaning all moments that r spent developing or building our love for God and Guru is Safal – auspicious, good and successfully spent. Banee says SAFAL MOORAT SAFLA GHAREE JIT SACHEY NAAL PYAAR. What makes time safal or wasted depends on WHAT WE DO during a particular time frame. No such thing as a good day, bad day, good hour good month etc. In Gurmat there is no such thing as an auspicious time (shubh vela) or a bad (asubh vela) time. Does this truly refers to a time frame i.e. Question: Dear Dr Karminder Singh ji could you please elaborate on the concept of Amrit Vella based on this “Amrit vela sach nao vadiayi vichar karmi avey kapda nadir mokh duar”. This correspondence is included in the attachment. The question and the response are listed below. This article will commence by stating the Question and Answer that was shared via WhatsApp. The claim by Karminder is shown to be a GROSS MISLEADING of the Sangat, in the VERY BASIC CONCEPT of AMRIT VELA prescribed in GURBANI and SIKH REHAT MARYADA. This is the time when there is minimum possibility of distraction and would be the most ideal to meditate and recite the morning prayers. The conclusion from the analysis is that Amrit Vela ਅੰਮ੍ਰਿਤ ਵੇਲਾ is last few hours of the night before sunrise. Study of Vaaran Bhai Gurdas also show Amrit Vela is the last quarter of the night meaning the hours before sunrise.įinally delving into Gurbani we find that one should meditate and worship God during the hours before sunrise (Amrit Vela). We also look at general reference sources and scientific findings which likewise indicate that early morning meditation is beneficial for us. We first study the dictionary meaning of Amrit Vela and show that Amrit Vela is the hours before sunrise. This article discusses a question regarding the timing of “Amrit Vela ਅੰਮ੍ਰਿਤ ਵੇਲਾ” posed to lay-preacher Karminder Singh who responses by claiming, that Amrit Vela is essentially any time the Sikh chooses.
