The person who is spiritually enlightened eats (lives off) divine wisdom. Guru Arjan Dev Ji say in Sukhmani Sahib (Prayer of Peace), We eat three meals a day every day, similarly, our soul needs the food of Giaan (divine wisdom). Doing Kirtan Sohila is a way of washing the filth of the world that falls upon us during the day while engaging in worldly matters. Then, before you go to sleep, you do Kirtan Sohila (Bedtime daily Sikh Prayer) to remind yourself of the truth again. After this, you do Rehras Sahib (Evening Daily Sikh Prayer) and are brought back into what you were thinking of in the morning. Throughout the day, we become influenced by our surroundings and society. Similarly, having a bath of truth makes you strong. Having a bath first thing in the morning, makes you feel nice and clean. As you start to progress spiritually, your soul begins to like hearing this beautiful truth that Gurbani is full of. When you read Gurbani first thing in the morning, you're having a big bath of truth. God is all love and truth and any other thought or action that was not done in the remembrance of God was evil which disconnected us from God.S Sikhs, we often ask why read the same Bani every day? Isn’t it enough to read and understand it once? Within this article, we will answer these questions and explore different perspectives on the importance of doing Nitnem (Sikh Daily Prayers) every day. Our spiritual destruction is ultimately caused when we forget God because that is when evil has lurked in our mind. The reason for this is because it is either they or our soul that will govern this body, each and every second there is a constant battle with them through the mind. Many Sikhs cannot keep a steady path to God since the five evils (lust, anger, greed, worldly attachment and ego) and maya are always plotting ways to cause a downfall in to the sikh on their journey to God. Therefore, the main purpose of why Sukhmani sahib was composed by Guru Arjan Dev Ji was to bring fearless ness to his Sikhs and to free them away from spiritual destruction.

At their request, one morning, Guru ji wrote Sukhmani sahib near the Sarowar Ramsar. The sangat requested Guru Arjan Dev Ji for a way to escape the fearful effect of Kalyug on humanity. He was reflecting on the spiritual destruction caused by Kalyug on the people in this world. It has been said that Guru Arjan Dev ji was sitting near Ramsar Sarowar at an isolated place and peaceful place at Amritsar. Sukhmani sahib was given to us by Guru Arjan Dev Ji.
