The rest of the procedure and explanation is the same, as given in the previous edition, under the caption “Dear Reader:” and is reproduced on page 4 of this book. Those, interested in a more comprehensive interpretation of these Hukam Namas, may refer to the recently published “Order of The Day: Detailed Version”. In that version, the complete shabad, in Gurmukhi, English transliteration, and a detailed stanza wise interpretation is provided. I am very grateful, to my friends and relatives, particularly my brother Dr. Manjit Singh Jawa for his sage advice, and meticulous editing. I also appreciate the hard work put in by S. Gurbaksh Singh Saggu in typing and formatting this book. Daljit Singh Jawa November 2016 Order Of The Day Page - 3 of 367 Dear Reader: This humble submission is presented to you not for imposing any scholarly thesis but for sharing some of the thoughts, which crossed my mind when I was reading the daily waak or ORDER OF THE DAY over the last three or 4 years. Many times it had been happening with me that I read this waak and thought that another part of my daily routine was over. At other times I read the translation also and thought this should be more than enough. But when somebody or my inner mind asked me what was really the Guru’s message or the Guru’s advice for today, I drew a complete blank. This compilation is an attempt to avoid the above situation and share with you my understanding of these DAILY ORDERS of our Guru. As stated above I do not claim any scholarly or learned understanding of the Gurbani and therefore might have made many serious mistakes and will therefore welcome all suggestions for corrections and improvements. The process adopted by me in compiling this draft was as follows: 1. From my general experience I concluded that for the Daily Waak we generally remain in the middle of Sri Guru Granth Sahib (SGGS). With this in mind and to allow for ample latitude I decided to restrict myself to pages 300 to 1100. 2. As per Sikh Rehat Maryada, when we open the SGGS, we are supposed to read the waak at the beginning of left page of SGGS. 3. We know, that in case of SGGS, the pages on the left are marked as even numbers. so I had to cover only the even numbered pages. As far as feasible I tried to follow these traditions. The format of this book is as follows: 1. Each page of the book corresponds to the page of Sri Guru Granth Sahib (SGGS) so that you don’t have to search through too many pages to find what you are looking for. Order Of The Day Page - 4 of 367 2. At the top of the page (above the line) is the heading of the shabad as given in the SGGS in a transliteration form for the convenience of people less conversant with Punjabi. 3. Below the heading, in italics, are the opening lines of the shabad, again in transliteration format. 4. After that is given the central idea or the meaning of the opening lines. 5. The central idea is a direct copy of the meanings (as given in the translations of SGGS by S. Manmohan Singh or Dr. Gopal Singh) of the line above the Pause, or Rahaao. Where there was no Rahaao the meaning of the opening lines was quoted. 6. Lastly is given my understanding of the shabad with the help of the two translations I had at that time, and my understanding of the Advice or the Order, which I thought Guru Ji is bestowing on us through that shabad. Some time I took the liberty of connecting this understanding with some particular instances of my life. I am sure many of you would have similar experiences when you felt Guru Ji’s advice so relevant and true. So dear reader, I hope you will find this experiment of mine some what useful to you in not necessarily finding the correct interpretation of the DailyWaak but may be an incentive for you to reflect on the message and find out what that message means to you and how by acting on that advice you can successfully face the problems of the present life and advance on your spiritual journey. In the end I thank Waheguru Akal Purakh for granting me the inspiration and ability to complete this humble presentation. I also thank all those friends and relatives (particularly, S. Gurbaksh Singh, and Dr. Manjit Singh Jawa),who helped in typing, proof reading, correcting, copying and printing this project. I hope this book will not be an end in itself rather it will be a beginning for many more such books to come with more scholarly and learned merit for the benefit of all interested persons.
