Today’s Hukamnama is by Guru Arjan Dev Ji, in the raag todee on Ang 712 of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji Maharaj.
Guru Arjan Dev Ji with this Hukamnama has blessed us. The todee raag is a very famous raag. The feeling that todee conveys is one which gives birth to wisdom within the soul of the human being. The todee raag, humbly, points out to the human being what the human being is unaware of. It will bring things, which we rarely think about but are important into our focus.
