nindo nindo moko lok nindo   I thought was the shabad , it is clear that nindaks end up picking up the paap di guttadi of the person they do ninda about , the sakhi behind this shabad was a neighbour of Bhagat Kabir ji was constantly doing ninda of him and Bhagat ji felt blessed that this person was willing to wash his sins for him , and praised him as a true friend . When that neighbour died Bhagat Kabir ji was deeply sorrowful IRL. When people do ninda think of them as helpers in a way then your haumai will not drag you through krodh

 

True.There is a shabad Bhale Nindo Bhale Nindo Bhale Nindo Lokho. It's in Mai Bauri Mera Raam Bhataar.

I just remembered 1 more shabad while reading the posts

Bhale Nindo Bhale Nindo Bhale Nindo Lokho. 

Slander me well,Slander me well,Slander me well, O people.

Very, very hard as am in the same boat. 

I suppose if / when they tell u to get involved u could simply speak out tukhts where it states Nindia is wrong? (NOT Sant ka nindhk stated in Sukhmani Sahib) but other times Maharaaj mentions Nindia / juglia. If they get it, good. If not... U perfomed your duty, did yer bit. 

True.If we tell them we do our part.If they dont listen then that's on them.

Now sharing this here also makes me feel that I am getting into Nindeya but I really needed to clarify the differnce between Nindeya chugli and living right life according to our Gurbani..

Really appreciate all your feedback sangat ji ..

Nindiya is when you accuse someone of doing something that he did not do.For example person A spreads a rumour to alot of people that person B is a thief.But in reality Person B is a honest person who does not steal.Then Person A is doing Nindiya which will affect his karam.Chugli is different.Chugli is more of gossiping about others.By sharing this here you are not doing Nindiya you are asking for advice so that is fine.

As for living the right life as long as we take Amrit, do sewa, stay away from 5 vices,do our banis and follow the 3 pillars of Sikhi like

Naam Japna(To meditate on the supreme Lord),

Vand Chakna(Help the needy, give a tenth of our income to charity)

Kirat Karni(Honest living,do not lie,do not earn money through deceit)

We should be fine.

Waheguru ji ka khalsa..waheguru jee kee fateh..

Sangat ji I have some concerns regarding our social lives.. Some kathas and sants talk about being alone is good and then I think about this Ghrist Jeevan.

Sometimes we have to sit with a group of people who are talking in general and then end up gossiping and criticizing others.

I know it is wrong and when I tell them as a joke that we should gossip less, I get the answers back like oh this is the reality..this is how people are.. we are just telling the truth..

So I have few questions in my mind.. 

First of all.. When someone call himself/herself spiritual.. can they still be rude? Can they still insult you in front of others to prove you wrong? Can they still criticize( commenting on others' upbringing) ?

What I understood..that once your heart is pure..you actions are simply sweet.. but then these days..everyone goes..oh be careful from those who are sweet talkers.. those who are little rude..they have good hearts..

My second question and really important for me to know is if I sit with someone(elders.....from family) who talks bad about anyone or gossip.. will it effect my karams too? What to do when you have no choice? Sometimes, they complain and expect you to get involved .. anytime I don't answer, I get to hear oh I am not being respectful..I am being ignorant...especially in the family..it is really hard...

Please advice how to handle this situation..

Waheguru JI

Vaheguru ji ka khalsa Vaheguru ji ki fateh 

If a person is truly spiritual he would not talk rudely.As we are supposed to talk sweetly(Mitha Bolna).They would not insult someone and they would not criticize.If something is wrong they would give constructive feedback. If you sit with people but don't do it then your Karam will not be affected.But if you decide to insult someone and do nindiya than yes.If your family is in Sikhi then advice them politely that we should not be criticising anyone and quote Gurbani.For example.

Ik Noor Te Sabh Jag Upjaya Kaun Bhale Kaun Mandhe

From this Shabad you can explain to them that we are all souls on a journey to experience and meet Vaheguru Ji.We are all in this together.We should not be criticising anyone.

Apologies if I got the shabad wrong.

It should

But if today's separate state happen, will the idiots we have today let panj pyare lead it?.................

True.Those in power now won't let their power go away so easily but it will still happen.

If Khalistan happens the Panj Pyare of Akaal Takhat should lead as government.This is what is mentioned in Bhai Rama Singh ji's book.He said that in his dream of Khalsa Raj,Panj Pyare led government.

As title suggests. I have noticed an increase in ppl from punjab rocking tattoos infact i noticed this for a while and just shrugged it off for some reason. Anyways do you guys also notice this I also seen women having tattoos as well. To me personally i am not a fan of tatoos and they kinda look immature and childish but  i would never think of someones opinion to be lesser just because they have a tattoo i even have friends with it

Same situation everywhere.At my place I know some people who used to keep Kesh then they cut it and became mona.Then they have tattoos all over their arms.Really disappointing that this is happening in the Panth.

Can you connect multiple devices to a tablet/phone via bluetooth?

Not sure about that.I think maybe wireless speakers can be connected to one device.

Edit:Just checked google there are some ways mentioned where multiple bluetooth speakers can be connected to one device

I wanted to have Gurbani playing in the house at most times, when the kids are around, so they can have it one whilst doing homework or just in general. Anyone ever done this with an alexa or Google nest? Id rather not purchase one of them as i dont like the fact that they listen to you, there anything the Sangat does or is it as simple as a bluetooth speaker and connecting a phone?

Veerji,you can place bluetooth speakers around your house and have it connected to a tablet or phone from which you can on Gurbani kirtan the whole day.I have seen these types of speakers in some houses they work well.
