Seva - Khidmat

I'm looking for some Hazar Imam's farmans on seva where he defines what is service and/or talks about the tradition of service in Islam. I know we cannot post the farmans here, so if you have any, please post the date and location of the farman and I will look it up on my own. Thanks!

Thanks for your detailed response. I understand the meaning of the anecdote, and with the technology and the nuclear issues, it is easy to see that one can destroy the entire Earth in a matter of seconds.

Please don't take the following personally, it is only my personal view...I would keep away from judging what the Noorani family as a whole. He is our Imam's brother, and from what I understand, you must be very elevated spiritually just to be born in the family of the ahl-e-bayt. We don't do all th...

Sachwani, do you know by any chance what part of Anant Akhado? If not, I'll try to look through it sometime later. Also, I have read in several posts that it will be the 51st Imam. I didn't see a reference to anything for this statement. Where does it say that this will take place during the time of...

Re: Pir Sadardin's ginan/garbi

There is a ginan/garbi by Pir Sadardin and it talks about Duryodhan. I heard it in Jamat Khana but can't remember the name. The refrain ends in something like "tenay pach.. pandawa (Pandevs)". I found the words a bit difficult to understand, so I don't remember anything else from it. Does...
