Amrit Velaa

I'm not sure if writing about it will help in any way... but it's worth a shot.

Dropping out of the Amrit Velaa cycle is tragic for one simple reason: Missing Amrit Velaa causes you to do other things which will mess up your Amrit Vela possibilities for the future as well.

Your mindset is never as calm or pure when you miss Amrit Vela on a regular basis and that causes your mind to falter throwing you into a cycle. Missing Amrit Velaa causes more missed Amrit Velaas while keeping Amrit Velaa makes it easier to wake up and concentrate in future Amrit Velaas.

I linked to a post on Sikhsangat.com a few weeks ago which gave some good tips on getting out of the "bad" Amrit Velaa cycle and getting into the "good" Amrit Velaa cycle. The thing that works for me best is: Forcing myself to do more paat and listening to keertan during every possible hour. Doing Ardaas to Guru Sahib for help doesn't hurt either.
