The Principle of
"Miri and Piri"
Excerpt of Lecture by
Siri Singh Sahib Ji 
"This version of mine is meant for those who love the Guru; who will like to understand the master of this term, " Guru Hargobind"; who will like to understand what " Miri Piri" actually is. My version is not to publicize something and uplift your spirit and make you feel good.  
 
Because I believe what is above, is below; what is good, is equally bad; what is right, is equally wrong. Something which is right for somebody, is something wrong for somebody.  And to understand that version, what is temporal, is equally spiritual; what is equally spiritual, is equally temporal; that is how it was.

Miri and Piri.  In simple terms, means the royalty, or the richness or the affluence. From that word, Amir (rich man) came “Miri” and “Piri” means wisdom.  Piri means spirituality.  Piri actually, in simple terms, means consciousness of unpollutable frequency...."

They long for what is real and genuine. And at our core, at our center we are all the same. We all want to belong and we all must relate to the soul...." 

Gatka:  A Martial Art
that Empowers Our Life
"Guru Ram Das created the Mal Akhara or Martial Arts School in Amritsar and actually gave a turban of victory to Guru Arjan Dev, who won a great bout against a famous wrestler Maskeen. Shabads in relation to this information can be found in Siri Guru Granth Sahib and in early Sikh History.
 
The Sixth Master then united Bhakti with Shakti, or spiritual devotion with physical empowerment. This unity of miri-piri is a key concept in Sikh Dharma.  Siri Singh Sahib Ji often talked of Gatka as ‘Adi-Shakti Yoga,’ or in other words a martial art which is a yoga of self empowerment...."
