LOL Manmit Chera, you did soo well for turning your monther away from such things, no doubt you will be rewarded well for this.

Is the Guru you bow to the same Guru who says :

Soohee, Fifth Mehla, Gunvantee

When I see a Sikh of the Guru, I humbly bow and fall at his feet.

I tell to him the pain of my soul, and beg him to unite me with the Guru, my Best Friend.

I ask that he impart to me such an understanding, that my mind will not go out wandering anywhere else.

If Guru Ji expressly did not want you to bow to any other then Guru Granth Sahib Ji exclusively then

they would never have written this, even if it is a gursikh to bow to.

Bhaji,

When Guru Ji says only bow to Guru Granth Sahib Ji, then what is meant here is only bow to ONE Guru, which is Guru Granth Sahib Ji, there is no other Guru. We must not bow down to anyother so called guru as there is only Guru Granth Sahib Ji. But that does not mean we cannot out of satkaar, piyar, respect, adhav bow to a GurSikh - as a Guru Ka Sikh.

If a Gursikh has such an avasta that AkalPurkh has done parkash in him or have pargat in him then would you not bow to this person?

We must understand the views of BHAGAT KABIR JI who said GURU IS SUPERIOR TO GOD I WILL BOW BEFORE THE GURU FIRST. Our GURU HAS SACRIFICIED EVERYTHING FOR US GURU SHOWS THE LIGHT OF GURU GRANTH SHIAB ,IT IS HUMILITY OF OUR GURU JI WHO SAID THAT WHO WORSHIPS ME WILL GO TO HELL I HAVE RESPECT AND DEVOTION FOR GURU JI AS GURVANI IS GREATEST COTRIBUTION TO US AS GURU ALSO SAID I WILL REMAIN ALWAYS WITH MY SIKH EVEN IN HELL IN PRESENCE OF OUR GURU AND GURU YRUE LOVE IT WILL BE BETTER THAN HEAVEN. GURU HAS CONSISDERED GURSIKHS SUPERIOR EVEN TO HIM THIS CONTINUES FROM GURU NANK DEV JI TO DASAM PITA GURU GOBIND SINGH JI. BHUL CHUK MAUF

There's room for figures of speech in Gurbani, but I don't think this was one of the instances where it's open for interpretation. I mean it's pretty clear, "I humbly bow and fall at his feet". And it wasn't that they fell at the feet of every sikhs feet, they fall at the feet of a true sikh of the guru. A Sikh in the truest aspect and form. Also, draw the line where you feel comfortable. I think it's silly to try and impose someone's belief on someone else, when Sikhi is about openness and acceptance of other's beliefs.

I think you've misunderstood the gurbani, at the very least I'd like you to point to the gurbani line that says Guru ji is above God, because i'm just confused at your post.

    • 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.
