Swords of Miri Piri
Poem 'ਮੀਰੀ-ਪੀਰੀ ਦੀਆਂ ਤਲਵਾਰਾਂ' is written by renowned Poet Karmjit Singh Gathwala
ਮੀਰੀ-ਪੀਰੀ ਦੀਆਂ ਤਲਵਾਰਾਂ
ਮੀਰੀ-ਪੀਰੀ ਦੀਆਂ ਤਲਵਾਰਾਂ ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਪਾ ਲਈਆਂ
ਧਾਰਾਂ ਸ਼ਾਂਤ ਤੇ ਬੀਰ ਰਸ ਦੀਆਂ ਦਿਲੀਂ ਵਸਾ ਲਈਆਂ
ਤੱਤੀ ਤਵੀ ਦਾ ਸੇਕ ਫੈਲਿਆ ਚਾਰ ਚੁਫੇਰੇ ਸੀ
ਜਬਰ-ਜ਼ੁਲਮ ਨੇ ਸੱਚ-ਧਰਮ ਨੂੰ ਪਾ ਲਏ ਘੇਰੇ ਸੀ
ਮਜ਼ਲੂਮਾਂ ਦੀਆਂ ਸਾਰਾਂ ਕਿਸੇ ਨੇ ਆ ਕੇ ਨਾ ਲਈਆਂ.. [Read More]
Miri Piri Poem by Baba Ferozdin Sharaf
ਹਰ ਨੂੰ ਵੇਖੇ ਇੱਕੋ ਅੱਖੇ ।
ਮੁਕਤੀ ਸ਼ਕਤੀ ਦੋਵੇਂ ਰੱਖੇ ।
ਦੱਸੇ ਜਿਹੜਾ ਜ਼ਿੰਦਾ ਰਹਿਣਾ ।
ਦੁਨੀਆਂ ਦੇ ਵਿਚ ਸਾਵੇਂ ਬਹਿਣਾ ।
ਭਗਤੀ ਦੇ ਵਿਚ ਜਿਊਂਦੇ ਮਰਨਾ ।
ਦਿਲ ਮੋਇਆਂ ਦੇ ਜ਼ਿੰਦਾ ਕਰਨਾ ।
ਗੁਰਿਆਈ ਦੀ ਸ਼ਾਨ ਵਧਾਵੇ ।
ਦੋਵੇਂ ਵਿੱਦਯਾ ਆਣ ਪੜ੍ਹਾਵੇ ।
ਵਿੱਚ ਫਕੀਰਾਂ ਗੁਰੂ ਕਹਾਵੇ ।
ਬਾਦਸ਼ਾਹਾਂ ਦਾ ਤਾਜ ਸੁਹਾਵੇ ।
ਸੋਧੇ ਵਿੰਗੇ ਦੁਨੀਆਂ ਦਾਰਾਂ ।
ਜਿਹੜਾ ਰੱਖੇ ਦੋ ਤਲਵਾਰਾਂ ।
ਭਗਤੀ ਦੀ ਉਹ ਸ਼ਾਨ ਵਖਾਵੇ ।
ਬੰਦੀ ਛੋੜ ਹਮੇਸ਼ ਸਦਾਵੇ ।
ਇਕ ਧਿਰ ਤੇਗ਼ ਅਮੀਰੀ ਰੱਖੇ ।
ਦੂਜੇ ਤੇਗ਼ ਫ਼ਕੀਰੀ ਰੱਖੇ ।
ਇਕ ਧਾਰੋਂ ਤੇ ਅੰਮ੍ਰਤ ਪਿਆਵੇ ।
ਦੂਜੀ ਧਾਰੋਂ ਪਾਰ ਬੁਲਾਵੇ । .. [ Read More ]
Concept of Miri and Piri in Sikhism
The Guru declared that the two swords signified Miri and Piri, (Shakti and Bhakti), deg, and teg. One symbolized temporal power and the other spiritual power; one to smite the oppressor and the other to protect the innocent. Read More
I am writing to bring your attention to an artwork posted on your website regarding Miri Piri Diwas ([Insert link: https://sikhizm.com/miri-piri-diwas-guru-hargobind-sahib-ji-gurpurab-images/#google_vignette%5D). First of all, I appreciate your team’s efforts in sharing content and awareness related to Sikh history and Gurpurabs.
However, I would like to respectfully express a concern regarding the artwork used to depict Sahib Shri Guru Hargobind Sahib Ji Maharaj.
As per historical Sikh traditions and descriptions, SAHIB SACCHE PAATSHAAH SAHIB SHRI GURU HARGOBIND SAHIB JI MAHRAAJ—the embodiment of Miri and Piri—is revered as a warrior-saint characterized by royalty, majestic physical presence, and strict adherence to Rehat, including uncut hair (Kesh) and a regal martial appearance. The current image uploaded on the page does not reflect these core historical aspects accurately and may convey an incorrect visual representation to readers and devotees.
Given the importance of maintaining historical accuracy and reverence when portraying the Sikh Gurus, I kindly request you to review this artwork and consider replacing it with an image or painting that authentically reflects the historical personality and royal grandeur of SAHIB SACCHE PAATSHAAH SAHIB SHRI GURU HARGOBIND SAHIB JI MAHRAAJ.
Thank you for your time, understanding, and dedication to serving the Sangat.
Warm regards,
Manjot Singh
