Waheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh!

I was listening to radio..and this old bajurg(baba ji) said that on Visakhi..all those people have taken amrit, it should be reviewd...are they keeping up with what they said to Guru sahib when they took amrit? if not then take that outer look(fake look) away from that person! Pakhandi..

and said "Natak cheetak..." need to be stopped!

Who decides if " they keeping up with what they said to Guru sahib when they took amrit"? This is stupid. It's not our responsibility to make sure others are keeping rehat. The only ones who can decide that are our gurus and waheguru. We are NEITHER. Stupid comment, stupid idea, just plain stupid. It isn't up to us to do this kind of crazy stuff. Taking away people's sikhi? Think about it. That makes you even worse than the person who has failed their "review". That means that you're going to take away their kirpan, their kara, their kesh, their kanga, and their kachera. Remind you of anyone?

Sat Sri Akal:

You make your own mistakes, learn from them and grow. This is the idea behind Sikhism. The Punj Pyare dictate the Rehat and it is your responsibility to follow it to the best of your abilities. It is your own path and you are the only one who is going to benefit from it. But it is up to you to go as far on that path as you desire.

I understand that it may be frustrating to see people who have the appearance, and took amrit, but who do not keep rehat...

But, it is not up to us to judge. It would be worse of us to take away their own rights...

We should not think anyone to be higher or lower, but even better would to see our own self as the lowest... then not judge anyone as lower than us...

Remember, that only by his grace, some will follow the path, and also by his own command, others wander around aimlessly.

No one is above his command.

    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!! 
    • Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi Kalan uses simple Punjabi.
    • 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.
