Ardas pdf

Ardas Sahib, commonly referred to as Ardas, is a Sikh prayer that serves as a formal supplication to the Supreme Being, Waheguru and is an integral part of Sikh worship. Ardas is performed by Sikhs to seek guidance, and blessings, and express gratitude.

The word "Ardas" itself means "prayer" or "supplication" in the Punjabi language. The prayer is typically recited while standing with folded hands and is recited collectively in the congregation, such as in Gurdwaras (Sikh places of worship), or individually during personal prayers.

Ardas is a versatile prayer that encompasses various aspects of Sikh life and spirituality. It begins with a series of verses invoking the divine qualities of God and acknowledging the eternal nature of the Guru Granth Sahib, the Sikh scripture. It then proceeds to seek the well-being and prosperity of the entire Sikh community, as well as the welfare of humanity as a whole.

During Ardas, Sikhs remember the sacrifices of the Sikh Gurus, martyrs, and other prominent figures in Sikh history. They seek the Guru's blessings and guidance in their personal and collective endeavors, express gratitude for the teachings and blessings received, and ask for forgiveness for any shortcomings or mistakes.

Ardas concludes with a prayer for the "Sarbat da Bhala," meaning the well-being and prosperity of all humanity. It is a reminder of the Sikh principle of selfless service and the commitment to work towards the welfare of others.

It is important to note that Ardas can be performed in different variations and can be adapted to specific occasions or circumstances. While there is a standardized version of Ardas practiced in Sikh worship, individuals and communities may add their own personal prayers or modify it to address specific needs.

If you are interested in performing Ardas or learning more about its practice, it is advisable to consult with a knowledgeable Sikh, visit a Gurdwara, or refer to authentic Sikh sources for guidance on the proper recitation and understanding of Ardas Sahib.
