Respected Brother/Sister,
Waheguru ji ka Khalsa, Waheguru ji ki Fateh!
In response to your question, the undersigned wants to say that, the condition in which you are in, Ardas to Akalpurakh, for His blessings, to remain in Chardi Kala, can take you out of your present condition, because the Guru teaches us:-
ਪਉੜੀ ॥ ਜੀਅ ਕੀ ਬਿਰਥਾ ਹੋਇ ਸੁ ਗੁਰ ਪਹਿ ਅਰਦਾਸਿ ਕਰਿ ॥ ਛੋਡਿ ਸਿਆਣਪ ਸਗਲ ਮਨੁ ਤਨੁ ਅਰਪਿ ਧਰਿ ॥ (ਪੰਨਾ 519)
ਅਰਥ: (ਹੇ ਭਾਈ!) ਦਿਲ ਦਾ ਜੋ ਦੁੱਖ ਹੋਵੇ ਉਹ ਆਪਣੇ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੂ ਅਗੇ ਬੇਨਤੀ ਕਰ, ਆਪਣੀ ਸਾਰੀ ਚਤੁਰਾਈ ਛੱਡ ਦੇਹ ਤੇ ਮਨ ਤਨ ਗੁਰੂ ਦੇ ਹਵਾਲੇ ਕਰ ਦੇਹ।
The word Ardas appears in Guru Granth Sahib many times. The word Ardas is made from Persian word Arjdashat i.e. Arj + Dashat (ਅਰਜ਼ਦਾਸ਼ਤ – ਅਰਜ਼ + ਦਾਸ਼ਤ). Arj means request (ਬੇਨਤੀ) and Dashat means to present (ਪੇਸ਼ ਕਰਨਾ). Thus, Ardas is a request from a person/Sikh to Akalpurakh in which he/she shares his suffering/ sorrow/ sadness/ distress/agony/ grief/pain etc. or well being/ delight/ pleasure/happiness etc. (ਦੁੱਖ ਜਾਂ ਸੁੱਖ) with Him.
At Panna 103 of Guru Granth Sahib, the Fifth Guru Person, Guru Arjan Sahib says: ‘ਮਾਝ ਮਹਲਾ ੫ ॥ ਤੂੰ ਮੇਰਾ ਪਿਤਾ ਤੂੰ ਹੈ ਮੇਰਾ ਮਾਤਾ ॥ ਤੂੰ ਮੇਰਾ ਬੰਧਪੁ ਤੂੰ ਮੇਰਾ ਭ੍ਰਾਤਾ ॥ ਤੂੰ ਮੇਰਾ ਰਾਖਾ ਸਭਨੀ ਥਾਈ ਤਾ ਭਉ ਕੇਹਾ ਕਾੜਾ ਜੀਉ ॥੧॥’ which means that since Akalpurakh is my father, mother, every relation and protector everywhere, therefore, I have no cause to be worried.
Therefore, the Sikh always (in happy times or sad/hard times – ਦੁੱਖ ਹੋਵੇ ਜਾਂ ਸੁੱਖ, ਖੁਸ਼ੀ ਹੋਵੇ ਜਾਂ ਗਮੀ) requests Akalpurakh for His blessings, to remain in Chardi Kala! To seek blessings of Akalpurakh, is the significance of Ardas.
Here, the undersigned will like to add that the Ardas to Akalpurakh, for His blessings (i.e. moral strength), should be matched with efforts, by the individual, to get rid of his/her illness etc., by going for medical treatment etc., if necessary.
The next possible step can be to change your life by imbibing the teachings of Guru Granth Sahib, get rid of vices, become a righteous/virtuous person and achieve the stage of spiritual equipoise and spiritual bliss by becoming one with Akalpurakh and Shabad Guru, who are embodiment of each other. The final goal is to achieve spiritual emancipation/salvation (enlightenment) in this life itself.
Hope that this helps. If you have any further questions, please do ask. If you find any deficiencies, please point out the same, for improvement in future.
Regards,
Your Brother
Please start following the following advice of Guru Sahib for proper concentration of mind.
ਗਾਵੀਐ ਸੁਣੀਐ ਮਨਿ ਰਖੀਐ ਭਾਉ ॥ Jap – 2
Whatever we recite, we should listen, understand, analyse and follow also.
We need to study Gurbani in the same manner as we do the study of the subjects of our school or college. Ritual reading is not going to help in any way.
