Waheguru Jee Ka Khalsa

Waheguru Jee Ki Fateh

Im not amritdhari yet but hope to be very soon and have started thinking about taking amrit alot recently.

I have a question for the sangat - how does one know when they are ready to take this gift of amrit from Guru Jee.

I would be grateful if the sangat could share their stories as to what inspired them to take amrit.

It’s so good to know you wish to receive Amrit! :TH:

It’s the most amazing thing ever! :)

I guess you know when you are ready but is it about being ‘ready’ or is it about surrendering to Guru ji’s Hukam because you want to?

We cannot overlook how important it is to become initiated into the Khalsa Panth, I mean even Guru Gobind Singh ji Maharaaj received Amrit from the Panj Piareh, how Great is Guru ji and how lowly are we, yet we still don’t appreciate this gift of Amrit given to us!!

Many people say all the time “oh I am not strong enough” but it’s not about being strong, it’s about having the will; if you have the will, the love, the longing, the wanting you will be granted the courage, the strength and the power to offer your head and to face up to the rest of the world as a Khalsa.

Also we do not know when we will leave this earth, the day we wake up from this dream, that we call life, is the day we die; would you rather not leave as a Khalsa, as a Guru ka Sikh and have Guru ji himself guide and help you??

We have nothing to lose by becoming Amritdhari but we have so so soooooooo much to gain!

It’s easy to receive Amrit, the hardest part is maintaining your Rehat and enhancing it; but again if you have the will, the love and the determination to do so with Guru ji’s kirpa you will be able to!

So my advice – do not delay!!

If I have said anything out of context then please, anjaan bachi samaj ke maph karna.

I guess the easy way would be to ask yourself:

"If Guru Gobind Singh Ji came through that door and asked for your head, right there on the spot, what would you do?"

The answer is give him the sword.

i was lucky in a way that i saw myself in amrit sanchar. Wen the rehat was being given i had a dream of this image, that image was then. That must have been my calling.

You know because you are hungry, you are thirsty, you can fill ur stomach on snacks and drinks but u still more hungry! you crave something so sweet nothing can fill it. Thats when you want amrit.

Ask yourself, are you ready to die? Are you scared to die? Me personally, id rather have this life taken and be with Guru Ji in Sach Khand. Only Guru Ji can bless me with that much and i can only hope i dont have another life on this planet. See what happens, but point being, you have to work for it! You will get tested so much to see if your ready and when you are, amrit sanchar will be there. If not, and you ready, let us know and we can arrange one!

Do lots of simran, feed your soul sikhi! Then go to Guru Ji and offer your head, if he wants it, he will take it. If your not ready, then he wont. But until you take the step to beg for death, you cant have it.

    • 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.
