i dont really know how to start this post and i dont realy think i should but anyways here goes. am i the only one who feels as if everyone is becoming trapped in rituals, including myself perhaps. am i the only one who feels as if we call ourselves sikhis, yet we have totally forgotten sikhi and what guruji has taught us. i feel as if i am one of these, perhaps. it feels i am trapped in the external to a certain extent aswell.im not sure but i feel as if guruji is going in one direction and the "sikhs" are going in another..and i mean all jathebandis and generally all sikhs.and i think that everyones following the "sikhs" rather than the guru, especially those who are ne…

i feel so stupid typing this, but i don't know what else to do. for the last month or so i've been feeling really down. first it was just a huge workload, then personal problems with friends, and family stuff isn't so good either. there's no need for too much detail but things have gone on and i feel so isolated and lonely. i don't feel like doing anything which i used to enjoy - from simran/kirtan through to eating/reading/studying. i feel guilty if i eat. i'm not that hungry anyway. sometimes i can't sleep for a long time either. sometimes it hits you that there's no-one who can help apart from guru ji. i dont feel like i can talk to other people about how i feel beca…

Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it. -
Yeah, that's one possibility. Another I initially thought is that it's a Muslim trying to gather info. But then, you might ask, how does he know about Sikh textual sources. Well, you'd be surprised at their resourcefulness. A final possibility is he's a weak Sikh who was asked a question by a non-Sikh and now he's suddenly feverishly wondering where it's "written" that you can't marry a young child. To the latter, I would say, you're looking in the wrong spot. Gurbani isn't a 1428 page rulebook, like Leviticus or the Vedas: ਸਿਮ੍ਰਿਤਿ ਸਾਸਤ੍ਰ ਪੁੰਨ ਪਾਪ ਬੀਚਾਰਦੇ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ॥ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ਗੁਰੂ ਬਾਝਹੁ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ॥ The Simritis and Shastras discriminate between charity and sin, but know not the essence of the Real Thing. Without the Guru, they know not the essence of the Reality, know not the essence of the Reality. Anand Sahib.

back then was waaaay different. ppl didn’t attend higher education or have much to do after the age of like… 13, lol. you’d have 13 year olds boys and girls that know how to do kethi, cook entire meals, etc nowadays even 22 year olds are extremely immature and can be sheltered. the average person doesn’t know how to do anything except their 9-5 which they are probably half arsing as well.
