You need to take Amrit and receive Naam and be taught how to practise it so that you can start Japping Naam.

How can your Jap Naam if you haven't received it from the Guru?

Yes it will have some benefit to repeat Vaheguru but how exactly can one "Jap Naam" if they have not received Naam? I think this comes down to a lack of faith in the Panj Pyare and an underestimation of the power of Naam.

bhai, did prehlaadh get amrit from punj, did any of the bhagats whose bani is in guru granth sahib get amrti from punj. no they didn't.

i totally agree with you that getting amrit will help immensly and make the journey easier. but pelase dont say that without amrit it wont have much of an effect.

Veer "Papi" Ji I suggest you do a little bit of research into the lives of the Bhagats and the relationship of Guru Nanak Dev Ji with them in their lives. They did not get Naam from Panj Pyare but they most certainly did receive Naam from somewhere.

Quite simply Amrit is the very first step. It is agreed by all that Naam is given in the Amrit Sanchar, so how exactly can someone who has not received Naam, Jap it? They can attempt to copy the outer movements or the sound, but most certainly it is not the same as the actually practise of Naam as is done after Amrit.

As I previously mentioned, the type of attitude displayed is more that of one who does not appreciate the power of Amrit and Naam.

peyareo, i didnt say they didnt recieve naam, ofcourse they did. but i said they didnt receive it from punj payarey.

they way you are putting it, it seems like without amrit there is no point of japping naam. i didnt mean to say that one should not take amrit as it is imperitive that every sikh takes amrit. i was jus saying the other side of the story, whereby encouraging the person to jaap naam even though they might not have taken amrit yet.

i'm sorry if it came off as me saying that we dont need amrit :D

bhul chuk maaf. guru rakha

    • 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.
