A free course inside the Everything IFS Academy
Japji Sahib is not a philosophical argument and not a belief statement. It is an opening into reality as Guru Nanak described it direct, unsentimental, and uncompromisingly honest. Recited daily by Sikhs for centuries, it begins not with instruction, but with revelation.
This course approaches Japji Sahib slowly, honoring it as sacred poetry and lived wisdom rather than abstract theology. From the Mool Mantar through the Paurees and the closing Salok, the text dismantles illusion, effort-based spirituality, and the myth that truth can be reached through force or performance.
This free course explores Japji Sahib through Sikh scripture, historical context, and a lens thoughtfully informed by Internal Family Systems (IFS). It is not therapy, and it does not replace Sikh teaching or tradition. It is designed for seekers who want to encounter this text with reverence, clarity, and room for inner honesty without being asked to adopt beliefs or override their own experience.
What This Course Offers
This course invites you to encounter Japji Sahib as a lived path — one that meets the human struggle with effort, fear, and striving, and gently redirects attention toward alignment with what already is.
Inside the course, you’ll explore:
The Mool Mantar as a description of Reality itself
The limits of thinking, silence, and spiritual effort
Hukam as alignment rather than resignation
Truth revealed through surrender, not control
Liberation as resonance, not achievement
Throughout the course, insights from Internal Family Systems (IFS) help illuminate how these teachings meet the inner world how protectors relate to striving, how fear responds to surrender, and how clarity emerges without coercion.
This approach does not replace Sikh Dharma. It does not turn Sikh wisdom into psychology. It offers another lens for noticing what is already there.
