In Sikhism, Simran (Punjabi: ਸਿਮਰਨ) refers to the repetition or recital of the God Names: Nām or of the Holy Text from the Two Granths of the Sikhs: the Sri Guru Granth Sahib and the Dasam Granth. The word is derived from Sanskrit word Smaran meaning Remembrance. Also translates to ‘Meditation’ – The verb Simar, which is derived from Simran means meditating.

It says in the SGGS that by carrying out Simran the person is purified and attains Salvation or Mukti.

Si - mar can also mean "to die over" such that you kill your ego in order to have union with the infinite reality.

A teaching that staying focused on TRUTH (Thy TRUE Name or SAT) gains a person the humility to accept God's Will (Hukam) and become free of attachment. The person who wishes to gain and benefit from this human life and attain a higher spiritual state must, according to the Sikh Gurus, undergo the discipline of Naam Simran, remembrance, i.e. constant awareness of Thy TRUE Name (Satnam).

The act of Simran (smarana) is on the one hand related to the act of "surati" (sruti) (concentration, focus) ie: listening to the teachings of Shri Guru Granth Sahib ,..

.. and on the other to the function of "smriti", i.e. consciousness which means comprehension & retention of the teachings in one’s consciousness.

The notion of naam Simran is thus similar to that of "surati-sabda". At one level this involves the practice of naam japana or focusing/concentrating on the TRUTH, a long established convention whereby merit is acquired by devoutly repeating, understanding, comprehending & livig by the sacred word ( 'TRUTH' ) in real life. The practice is explicitly enjoined in the Sikh faith

Further, the discipline must be practised in a corporate sense...

...with devotees gathering as a fellowship (satsang) to sing hymns of praise (kirtan) of no individual gone by /living wordly person, but of Lord TRUTH.

The final level is meditation. Akal-Purakh meditation is not merely mechanical repeatition of words or singing of hymns but also being in deep contemplation of the divine mystery of Lord TRUTH. Such repeated contemplation cleans the mind where in TRUE IDEAs by the grace of Lord TRUTH descend down. All these practices constitute legitimate and necessary forms of naam simran; and all serve progressively to reveal the divine Name to the person who earnestly seeks it.
