" AWAL ALLAH NOOR UPAYA KUDRAT KE SAB BANDEY, EK NOOR TE SAB JAG UPJYA KUAN BHALE KO MANDEY "-- GURU NANAK DEV JI.

[drrajbir1964]

GOD doesnt believe in castism, that is why HE blessed this world with music. rise above these ridiculous things this world can be a heaven for everybody.I AM A SIKH AND I ALWAYS RECITE " NANAK NAAM CHARDI KALA , TERE BHANE SARBAT DA BHALA ". GOD BLESS ALL.

[KillinDaWelfareMCs]

his Nanaji was a rababi in the Court of HariMandir Sahib. Ustad Bahi Chaand ji.

[KillinDaWelfareMCs]

Tari ji is Guru Nanak...

Because he is doing Kirtan..

That is the whole of Nanaks message

we are all him.

[1984bhupinder]

All believers bow down with respect to GOD, Gurus and pure Souls like Bhagat Fareed ji and Bhagat Kabir ji bcoz they who never wasted there times and lives fighting and arguing over religion and all other stuff that we humnas are busy fighting about now a days. Thats the reason there souls united with the ONE(GOD) and we still can't seethe real bigger picture that is the truth, which is that there is no religion but only thing that exists is Humanity and Remembering GOD acc to the way one wishes

[1984bhupinder]

Now Bhagat Kabir ji and Bhagat Fareed ji spent there lives reciting and remembering GOD, they never bowed down in front of any other person whether a muslim or hindu or sikh or any other religion...coz they knew that GOD is responsible for all creation and all is there bcoz of GOD. They realized this truth and thats why people respect them. Thats the reason there names and sayings are present in Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji.

[1984bhupinder]

People and Pure Souls like Bhagat Sri Kabir ji, Bhagat Sri Fareed ji and other souls who lived there life reciting God's name in there own way, whether Ram or Allah or Waheguru...they realized the truth that this world is not reality all this is going to end atone time.

All these differences based on religion, caste, country, colour, sex, status is nothing but a stupid method we humans are following and spreading hatred and killing others on the pretext of it

[Balraj50]

This is Raag Pooriya

kabir mera mujh meh kich nahi jo kich hai so tera.

Kabeer, nothing is mine within myself. Whatever there is, is Yours, O Lord.

tera tujh ko sa-upate kiya lage mera. ||203||

If I surrender to You what is already Yours, what does it cost me? ||203||

[KumarTabla]

@Balraj50 Kyaa baat! He is a wonderful singer! Isn't this Raag Purya Dhanashree? Please help educate me, I don't know much about Raags.

[qalandarmast]

wat a beautiful voice.....

[RiversideGurGhar]

Respecting all the religons and beliving in one god is true sikhi.However, true sikhbelieve in one god with a true faith in Sri guru Granth Shaib Ji. i respect Ustad tari Khan who is a great human and muslim; that what a man of god does.

[KillinDaWelfareMCs]

Wierd...no Guru except Dasam Pathshah new anything about the GURU Granth sahib.

So, were are the first 9 Guru's and their followers not sikhs?

[KillinDaWelfareMCs]

isn't It true that Sikhs bow to Bhagat Fareed who was a Muslim and Bhagat Kabir who was also born to muslim weavers.

I think pritpalc is correct in id'ing atleast 2 muslims that Sikhs bow to and respect so TAri khan doing kirtan is ok

[gurvir86]

SIkhs don't bow to Bhagat Fareed or Bhagat Kabir.. They bow to sri Guru Granth Sahub ji..

[KillinDaWelfareMCs]

So you bow to their writings,.. but if they were here in flesh you would just stand there like they were nobody.

I wouldn't.

Didn't Kabir write almost 25% of the Guru Granth?

And seriously you wouldn't bow to him.

Then why bow to his writings?

i don't get your argument.

[hardworking4ever]

loki is gal te ladh rahe ne ke tari khan sahib ji ne kirtan kita ... kise ne kirtan nu suniya ??? je suniya a te us ch jo bhed guru maharaj ne dasiya hai us nu samjho ... "mera mujh me kuch nahi jo kuch hai so tera..."... tari khan sahib bahut vadiya kirtan kita tusi ...

[Argiizz]

Thanks

[kazamhut2]

I have seen both muslim and hindu sing kirtan and also attend the gurdwara. Not every muslism is bad guys and more of them decided to stay in India than join Pakistan. We got riped off but can't blame all of them to what happened to sikhs and hindus in the past.

[amriteighteen]

Very good, overall..

He IS singing in Raag, and there is no problem what so ever that a muslim is singing the words of Guru Sahib. He truly has dedicated his life for kirtan and from another message on page 2.. The tabla player isn't a beginner. You don't have to be playing crazy and doing all these tricks, going in a fast speed to be good.

[bazookajoe77]

ur right...clarity when playing slow shows that ur good and have potential to play faster. But wats the use of being showy when doing kirtan right.

[rithi05]

khalsafauj! why u bring ur muslim sikh or any other shit, why don't u take ur pathatic ass out of here......

[torontostablaguy]

so what would you call kirtan these days? most of the kirtan sung right now in gurdwaras around the world is based on filmi songs, and the raagis have a very limited understanding of classical music. here, ustad tari is singing a shabad in a raag highlighted in the guru granth sahib, he is doing what most raagis dont do these days.

[khalsafauj]

Oh and get your shit straight He's singing a RAAG. Not only a RAAG, but the exact raag that was written down by our Gurus. Nice Job

[khalsafauj]

The Foundation stone of Siri Harimander Sahib was layed down by a MUSLIM. Mian Mir.

[khalsafauj]

akaljidafauji-

Ustad Tari Khan has more respect for Guru Nanak Dev Ji than most Sikhs do. Did you forget?Guru Nanak Devji's FIRST follower was Bhai Mardana Ji.A MUSLIM.People like you create racial prejudice against religions.Its not the outer look that counts, but the inner state or VAIRAAG Ustad Tari Khan has Japji Sahib memorized, and knows more Sakhis of Guru Sahib than Gurdware de Granthis.He'll start to cry when we talk about Guru Nanak Dev Ji. So please, think before you type something.

[theanhadnaad]

By saying what i'm about too, I in no way mean to offend anyone, just want to state my opinion..and also Tari khan is one of my fave tabla players...first of all if someone calls themself a Sikh, it meens they follow the 100% way of Sikhi so there is no way Tari Khan the folower of another religion could have more respect for Guru Nanak Dev Ji than someone who follows Guru Sahibs teaching...knowing sakhis and memorizeing Bani meens nothing if you don't follow what Bani says...

[kumars82]

wah ustad wah

[bazookajoe77]

I think somebody needs to grow up here. Tari Ji is doing some much in the world that is inspiring, while you sit on ur ass and criticize. I don't curse much, but seriously fuck off.

[hammerguy1512]

ez brother no need to be so harsh, why judge man.

[hammerguy1512]

Your not even singh, or apart of akal di fauj, the way you talk prooves it.

[pritpalc]

i guess someone here is so ignorant that he does not know that sikhs bow to a muclim every day. Sheik farid is Guru Granth Sahib and a guru of the Sikhs.

you hate filled shaytan...bow before the Muslim Faridu-din in his resting place in the GGS.

[gurvir86]

you're pretty ignorant..

Seikh Farid was a follower of the Sikh religion. Get your facts straight. He was not any near a Guru to the Sikh Faith.

I dont see any reason to be a bitch about it.

What you should realize, Sikhi is soo strong, it has influences from all the Races in the world, making it a very acceptable religion. We promote peace. We don't see ANYONE as infidels!

[pritpalc]

Wannabe Sikh Gurvir,

Shiek farid died 300+ years BEFORE Guru Nanak was even born! Clearly he was not a follower of the Sikh religion.

If Granth Sahib ji is your Guru then the individuals who's writings make it up are your Guru Including Sheik Farid. I bet you've never even read the GGS you wannabe sikh. You have much to learn.

If Shiek Farid is not your Guru then why do you bow to him (his writings) in Guru Granth written 300+ years before Guru Nanak was even born?

U R IGNORANT not me

[gurvir86]

Just because our Sri Guru Granth Sahib has writings of a Muslim, does not mean we bow to muslim. FYI, the guru granth sahib ji also has writtings of hindu people, funny, why dont the Jindu people go shouting about the same things as you do? You're ignorant in the fact that we have 10 gurus and thats the end of it. No mention of Farid being a guru, so stop trying to be learned when so clearly you're not.

[gurvir86]

*Hindu

[pritpalc]

1st you say Baba Farid was a Follower of the Sikh religion. Now you say sikhs have 10 gurus. Another error. What is the Guru Granth Sahib then? Answer = 11th Guru Nanak.

Next, lets start with the definition of Guru because you don't know what it means. Guru means Enlightener.

Everyone with Bani in the Guru Granth ji is a Enlightener, who is ONE with GOD, and therefor a Guru. Easy as that. Calling Sheik Farid a Guru is therefore correct even if it's not conventional in mainstream Sikhi.

[pritpalc]

Please Explain why this is Called GURUBANI? If Farid is "not any near a Guru.."

pg1379 GGS

Fareed, the nights are long, and my sides are aching in pain. Cursed are the lives of those who place their hopes in others. || 21 || Fareed, if I had been there when my friend came, I would have made myself a sacrifice to him. Now my flesh is burning red on the hot coals. || 22 || Fareed, the farmer plants acacia trees, and wishes for grapes. He is spinning wool, but he wishes to wear silk. || 23 ||

[gurvir86]

Yes you are Right..but in saying that, that does not require the Sikh people to bow down to the Muslim faith or world. And it should be noted that Baba Farid never made it clear as to what his religious beliefs were. So please take your head out of your ass. We do not need to be bowing to any other beliefs of any sort. Sikhi have respected EVERY other religion, i can't see why cant you do the same.

[pritpalc]

Hilarious, you are so stupid.

Listen retard, I am a Sikh. My origional post was a response to "Akalidafauji" for whom this sub thread was started. He was dissing Ustad Tari for singing a shabad and being a muslim. I pointed out that Sikhs Bow to the writings of a Muslim everyday and Ustad Tari Khan should be allowed to and can sing kirtan when ever he wants.

I only said Sikhs bow down the Muslim Baba Farid.

Are you mentally challenged or just dumb? I never said sikhs need to bow to all muslims.

[gurvir86]

You are right oh learned sikh who has read the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji. My post was directed to you stating Sikhs bow down to muslims. That is it. Mentally challenged? I'm sure that is a big word for you.. Don't stress your brain with this, and you can leave WIkipedia for a bit, since that is where you get your info from. I have erred in my response about baba Farid. And i apologize for that. Now, again, get your head out of your ass, and the smell the fresh air. Vaheguru...

[pritpalc]

You have been arguing based on false premises that you imagined.

Hilarious

U even thought I was a Muslim and were preaching about religious tolerance.

Lmao

P.S. I've been doing Kirtan and learning about sikhi since 1985, way before Wiki and the net were even around.

Fake Sikhs like you make me laugh.

[gurvir86]

Oh learned sikh who has been doing kirtan since 1985. I am sure you are the utmost educated sikh there is. I didn't know what you were, but you did called those who bow to the guru granth sahib as infidels..not much was needed to see what you are. I was mistaken, and have apologized for that. wonder, how long back did "LMAO" came into use? oh wait, did you create it? In essence, Sikhs do not bow to any other religion or people per say. Despite their works being used in the granth sahib ji.

[pritpalc]

"you did called those who bow to the guru granth sahib as infidels.."

I DID NOT

Prove it by providing a quote of myself....again you are imagining this.

[gurvir86]

and thanks to your ridiculous line of thinking, some kid is making similar accusations about Sikhi above. I thank you for insulting your own religion. God be with you.

[pritpalc]

cont...

Plus a real Sikh, someone who can read Gurbani and has read the Guru Granth Sahib unlike you, knows exactly what Baba Farids religious beliefs are. THEY ARE VERY CLEAR. He was a Muslim of the Sufi order, any REAL SIKH knows this.

You're just a wannabe Sikh. Let me remind you that you thaught Baba Farid was a follower of Sikhi somehow even though he was alive hundreds of years before Guru Nanak was even born.

Maybe you should stick to commenting on things you actually know about.

lmao

[gurvir86]

your line of argument that states that sikhs bow to baba farid because his works are established in the Granth Sahib, and sikhs bow to the grant sahib, is ridiculous and immature. and, although i have said "we" in relation to sikhs, i never actually said that i am a sikh. But i am sure your divine kirtan skills must have told you that. I am actually a muslim, who sees sikhi as intriguing. I sign of in hope that your blessed self would bless this "infidel"...

[pritpalc]

Retard, now you are just lying. How many muslims are named Gurvir?

And if you had half a brain you would know that my name Pritpal is also a Sikh name.

You have exposed yourself as a lier.

I will have no further discourse with someone who will lie about who they really are.

[gurvir86]

Genius, my name is Gurvir Josan..My parents converted a long time ago, although i have not accepted their beliefs. Living in Malaysia. Anything else i should answer?shall i point you to the direction of the Kiblat perhaps? Prick.. I am happy you have opted not to continue this discussion, as i do not see a sikh who simply bows to anyone else but the Grant Sahib as a true sikh. Please understand the kirtan you've been doing since 1987. It shall give you answers. Tc..

[KillinDaWelfareMCs]

I've been reading your thread.

You seem a little thick homey.

After all that back and forth with that other dude you say that you don't even accept Sikh beliefs, and your parents are converts and you aren't.

You seem like a douche bag bro pretending to be a Sikh and tellin the other guy he is not, and then admiting that you don't even accept Sikh beliefs.

thats got to be the most fuk'd up self defeating argument i've ever read.

[bsingh2]

Ustd Tari Khan ji is truly blessed

[xtm800]

Wow, I know Ustad Tari Khan is the legend, as a afghan tabla player, I really respect him, I love his style, today I am really surprised that he can really sing professionally. God bles him.

[zad1262]

Ustad Tari saheb is multitalented, and I hate it when people start comparing accomplished musicians. This tabla player must have been very encouraged accompanying the Ustad, however he does need to improve. Very distracting from the wonderful vocal!

[Meerajasmineslave]

It says the tabla player was a student of Allah Rakha maybe he never went to his classes so he didn't learn anything LOL.

[bhacg001]

the video is tripping its not the tabla players fault...come on dont u think that khan sahib would of said something

[pritpalc]

The reason he is only playng the teka is because he is accompanying a Shabad. The focus of this video are the words of Guru Nanak. NOt the the taal.

[dindin010]

aint possible!

[BanarsiPaan120]

The tabla player is worse... Such a big ustad playing with a beginner.. painfull 2 watch altough it must be inspiring 4 the serdaar ji..

[zaakirally]

Ustad Tari Sahab,

Multi-talented legend of classical music. Now I've seen it all.

[MainzxLivewire]

vah, kiabath hai...wtf is the tabla player doin man...tari wikad, tabla chi shit = )

[bsingh2]

wha wha- can't believe my eyes,Utd Tari Khan SINGING, singing a shabad. he's pretty good too.

[dhruviji]

Is there anything this guy cant do?

Ustad Tari Khan... A vocalist?? Hes BLOODY GOOD!! AMAZING

[sonofthedestroyer]

Excellent. Punjabiprize where on earth do you find these stuff?

[gurujio]

waaah..this is soo amazing...i'm speechlesss..thank u for sharing this gift..

[PsLALLI]

I dont think the tabla guy (on the left) knows who he is playing the tabla with? the taal he is playing is mainly played with striaght forward shabads not raags or in classical kirtan! if I was sitting there I would LAUGH MY PANTS OFF! and take over playing the Tabla.

[metronomestudio]

tabla tabla tabla wwaz up

[tablastar]

holy shit..no way..!
