RAAG GUJRI.

This is historically an old raaga that was used to sing devotional hymns.

The ideal time to recite this raag is in the rainy season and in the early morning hours.

Guru Arjan Dev ji asks us to reflect:

Ang 495:
I have searched all Shastra’s Vedas and Simritis…they all affirm one thing; without a Guru there is no liberation…..reflect this in your mind. (Vichaaro)

The Guru asks us to reflect upon the guidance given…
How do I reflect? I am surrounded by distractions all around me.
In order to reflect…(to do Vichaar) I must be able to turn my attention inwards, to be able to find a quiet place within me. The inspiration comes from the shell that is curling upon itself, as if going further inwards, of nature giving inspiration. Inspiring me to turn inwards to reflect upon the words of the Guru.
