Using a variety of traditional melodies, Dya Singh brings the wisdom of these sacred verses to ‘live’, with occasional ‘inspirations’ in English by youngest daughter Parvyn. This album also brings Parvyn of age as she holds almost every alternate line of the scriptures in tango with her father, in her mother tongue Punjabi.
This ceremony which is prevalent amongst the Sikhs narrated normally in a melodious verse reading form starts with the ‘Saloks’ (verses) of the ninth guru, Guru Tegh Bahadur, then a couple of verses by fifth guru, Guru Arjan Dev Ji followed by the Raag Mala (Garland of Ragas). In completion there is another piece of divine poetry also from within the Sri Guru Granth Sahib, by the third guru, Guru Amar Das Ji, called ‘Anand Sahib’ (the Psalm of Bliss). Normally the ceremony only has the first five verses, buut Dya Singh has rendered the complete 40 verses.
Dya Singh has brought these sacred verses to live with vibrant melodies accompanied by tabla (Indian hand drums) and the occasional touch of the guitar. The strength of this rendition are the vocals of Dya and his daughter Parvyn and Parvyn’s powerful English inspirations.
The album starts off slow as Parvyn and Dya feel their way through the first half with a heady crescendo in the Raag Mala followed by a steady melodious eight beat rhythm narration alternating between the two voices.
Once again, Dya Singh’s mastery of his brand of music combining the traditional music of the Sikhs with cavalier touches of contemporary inspirations makes this album a must for Dya Singh fans. As usual, this is vintage Dya Singh verse and music to touch the soul. Sikhs will find a special significance with this traditional sacred ceremony and young Sikhs will start appreciating it even more, through Dya Singh’s rendition.
(Album 45 minutes. First edition pack also contains a complete booklet of the narration in Gurmukhi, romanised English

Meditation The Sikh Way
SIMREN
Dya Singh Style
Meditation is the catalyst towards a life of balance. In brief, a human is made of three parts – the body, the mind and most importantly, the spirit. Meditation helps bring about a balance between the three.
Meditation is a glimpse of the infinite. It helps one to experience beyond the limitations of the mind. Meditation is a glimpse of the ‘divine’ (within us and all around us) if you like. It is an experience of the ‘source of all existence’, the ‘source of all reality’ – God.
Meditation is nourishment of the spirit. Meditation includes listening (and playing) good music.
Meditation can be as simple as sitting down in silence. It can be as complicated as shutting oneself up alone, in silence, for a period of time until the ‘noise’ in ones brain becomes still.
Meditation can move one into a timeless zone where there is relaxation, peace and happiness. A zone, or plane of existence which is stress-free, without worries, without humanly responsibilities, problems, fears, nor physical and mental ailments.
Finally, meditation is a method of self improvement within this lifetime.

Dya Singh’s twelfth album is a broody, laid-back collection of relaxing musical pieces. This release features a unique Satnaam Simran (meditation) with a rare ek-tala (twelve-beat cycle). You’ll also enjoy four sh’bds (Sikh hymns), two renditions of the “Naam” (name of God) recitation, as well as a 15-minute finale, a Waheguru simren (meditation). This album features tabla and piano, which accompany the skilled voices of Dya Singh and his daughters. A laid-back journey of music and hymn as a means to touch ones soul.
INITIAL START... Sikh meditation, in the first instance does not require any form of personal preparation except the maxim – JUST DO IT ! Make a start!
Find half an hour in a 24 hour period and sit ‘with’ yourself – no phone, no radio, no TV, nobody around to disturb you except some meditative music or total silence.
In your mind create a sense of grateful thanksgiving for this wonderful gift of life that you have been bestowed with. Remember – you only have this life for a short period. It ‘will’ end one day. So you want to make the most of it. Count your blessings and be grateful for that opportunity. Let a sense of well-being and happiness pervade your whole being.
Focus on your breathing – the ‘life force’ that sustains you. Breathe deeply, in contentment, holding your breath for a comfortable period and expel slowly.
As the ‘river’ of life-force flows into you, remember, it is the river of ‘Truth’ – we call it ‘SAT’. So as you breath in you are sucking in ‘SAT’, the Truth. Hold ‘SAT’ for a while … then breath out ‘NAAM’.You do not have to physically say it, feel it flowing in (Sat) and out (Naam). SAT-NAAM is the first ‘mantra’ (key word) of Sikh Meditation. All it means is ‘The True Name’.
