VJKK,VJKF.

I have a question for everyone.

If someone tells you that Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji is not the Guru....and instead they say it is a man....what do you do? I am faced with a dilemma...i know of a man who is teaching kirtan to kids and telling them that Guru Ji isnt the real Guru. Should this man be allowed anywhere near Sikh kids or vulnerable people? Should he be given a stage? Should he be accepted by the Khalsa Panth? Should i not say anything to him? If he is mis-guiding people then should we not excommunicate him?

Please advise.

VJKK, VJKF.

Guru Gobind Singh Ji declared Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji as his successor and the one and only Guru for the rest of eternity. THere can be no other person claiming himself to be the successor of the Gurus. ANyone who says otherwise is totally misguided, needs help, and shouldn't be preaching since they are preaching the wrong info.

Sri Guru Granth SAhib contains the bani of our Gurus and bhagats, and it says "Bani Guru, Guru hai bani." So if someone is saying its 'not really teh guru' then he's got another thing coming at him.

phaenjee.. If you can't raise this issue with gurdwara members/leaders, you should inform the parents of the kids.

Please don't mind me saying.. but What is accepted in panth or whom should be exclude from sikh panth is very huge job and we should leave it to the singhs/kaurs who carries vast knowledge of sikh religion and culture. :lol:

I suggest you tell an elder, the Gurdwara ParDhaan, local Gursikh or the Granthi Singh. Ensure that this man is not in a situation where he can indoctrinate innocent children. Sadly brainwashing kids is often used by Pakhandi groups to break people away from Guru Granth-Guru Panth.

Here are some useful articles for you:

" Who says 'Sri Granth' is Guru? "

" Guru Maaniyo Granth. "

Is the teacher a Namdhari? If so, then you might as well accept the fact that he will only believe in his guru. Simple solution, don't learn off him if it's affecting your Sikhi. There are GurSikh teachers out there.

Advise others of the situation and let them make their own decision. If they still want to learnt a Gurmant activity from this person then they are just lame.

      Concept of Sin

      By BhForce · Posted

      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

      Fake Baba

      By BhForce · Posted

      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.

      Fake Baba

      By Singh1989 · Posted

      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!!

      Is suraj parkash right? is it a reliable source of info?

      By BhForce · Posted

      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.
