I read something about making sure our last thoughts are about God and not our family or anything else. For instance if your final thoughts are of your family then you will be reincarnated into a pig. This what I don't understand. My question is why does it matter what species we will be reincarnated into since we have to go through all the species in order to come back as humans anyways.

vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw! vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!! Sikhsangat.com is proud to bring 'The Shabad Game - Part 2' :umm: RULES: - Well, like the first one the rules are basically the same, but with a bit of a twist. All the shabads in this should be no more than 4 lines, since sometimes the shabads get too long, and I know what happens, we get lazy and not read the entire shabad. So please, 4 lines to the max. - Another twist is that all shabads posted in Part 2 should be regarding naam japna/simran/meditating on the lord. - If you get the shabad in Gurmukhi and it doesn't show properly in gurmukhi, highlight/select that line, then select 'Gurmukhi' from the FONT DROP DOW…

Waheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa! Waheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!! Two years ago, I used to cut my hair and drink alcohol. I always told my self that one day i will change my life around and take Amrit. I always had Love for Sikhism, and would read books, and english translations of Gurbani, but i was not following what i read. I used to love listening to Katha at the Gurudwara, and would go almost every day, but i still drank and cut my hair. One day during Katha, the Singh Sahib on stage was doing Katha about how Guru Gobind Singh Ji sacrificed everything he had for the Khalsa. He spent his whole life defending the Faith in constant wars. His parents, and all of his children sacr…
