In the 2nd episode of Sikh Wedding Prayers Explained, the first Laav is explained. - What is a true marriage? - What type of goals are we striving for? We learn about the history of the first Anand Karaj that took place and the different supplications (Ardaas) made before the Guru before the Bani was revealed. The foundation of any union should be focused on Shubh Ichha (pure intentions), which is especially relevant for Sikh weddings.

Bhai Baljit Singh explains through Guru Arjun Dev ji what it means to forget Vaheguru (God). It is not enough to say Vaheguru Ji’s name but we need to bring Vaheguru ji’s name into our actions. Breaking someone’s heart with spiteful words is forgetting Vaheguru (God). Bringing the name of sweet speech upon our tongue is remembering Vaheguru Ji. Unconsciously we might start looking down at others and get caught up in a web of pride not realising that we can end up falling tomorrow. Guru ji tells us those that are lowly today Vaheguru Ji has the power to make them the highest.
