Punishment From Vaheguroo?

[SikherOfTheNaam]

WJKK WJKF!

I was just curious, i have OCD (obessesive compulsive disorder- handwashing) which means that i see nearly everything contaminated with germs, and i have the obesssion to continuously wash my hands. If you want to know more about OCD please go on this link: www.ocd.org.

However my question is, is my OCD a punishment from God?

Many thanks

You can see it as a punishment, or as a challenge. I'd recommend the latter, and get some therapy for it.

Thanks for replying,

I have had therapy and i have been discharged from the service.

However i have to cope with the problem for the rest if my life as it will never go.

ਹਰਿ ਕੇ ਲੋਗ ਨਹੀ ਜਮੁ ਮਾਰੈ ॥

har kay log nahee jam maarai.

Death cannot strike down the people of the Lord.

ਨਾ ਦੁਖੁ ਦੇਖਹਿ ਪੰਥਿ ਕਰਾਰੈ ॥

naa dukh daykheh panth karaarai.

They do not see pain on the most difficult path.

ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮੁ ਘਟ ਅੰਤਰਿ ਪੂਜਾ ਅਵਰੁ ਨ ਦੂਜਾ ਕਾਹਾ ਹੇ ॥੧੪॥

raam naam ghat antar poojaa avar na doojaa kaahaa hay.

Deep within the nucleus of their hearts, they worship and adore the Lord's Name; there is nothing else at all for them. ||14||

it depends on the way we see things - a human with no limbs can still achieve their purpose in life, but they would have to look past the apparent barriers - most people would think it's terrible to have no limbs. but i know disabled people who will smile and say it's all God's sweet Will, inspiring others in the process.

we can ask if it's a "punishment" to have OCD, or we can thank God for everything else we have and continue meditating on His greatness. the second option is harder, but is a better use of time.

who knows, maybe it's part of your karams. but what will knowing do? i'm sure if God wants you to know then He will tell you. our minds can only take so much. if we look at it deeply, God loves us. everyone has tests to pass, maybe yours is to love God whilst having OCD. we never know, but all we can do is try.
