Rehat Or Not

[Bundha]

If a situation arose where you had a chance to do par-upkaar, to help someone – maybe to save their life, to get them out of a bad situation or from a bad way of life that they may have got themselves into – BUT is meant that it properly compromised your Rehat/marhadha, what would you do?

Do you - do the par-upkaar and “rehat javay taa javay”

Do you pull back and not get your self ‘dirty’? – wash your hands of it and walk away and keep your rehat?

Are you talking about organ donation or bone marrow? As in the kes would need to be shaved in order to remove the organ or bone marrow, is that the situation you are talking about?

This is just a hypothetical question, nothing specific.

I have just thought of a very silly situation but it illustrates the point.

Say if some one was smoking and eating a roast chicken and just then he has a fit and the only way to save him was by mouth to mouth ressacitation(?) . Do you put your mouth over his mounth knowing what he has been eating/smoking or do you keep your rehat ?

Guru ji answers this :D

(BUT I DONT HAVE "AMRIT RAS" WITH ME ANYMOREEEE NAHIIIIII)

http://www.sikhitothemax.com/page.asp?ShabadID=2518 << Bhagat Ravidas chatting to Akaal Purakh about it.

Just Like AKaal Purakh, like a mate, asks Ravidas "Eh Ravidas, you worked your way away form Moh Maya etc.. but what if I trap you again into it?" Then Bhagat Ji replies, "Then I would trap you with my love".. because Akaal Purakh allows Him to be bound by his Bhagat to keep the Bhagat's Bachan true.

Story from Mahabharat:

Duryodhan and Arjun (the massive war between the 2 families about to rage) both go to Krishan. To cut the story short, Duryodhan arrived first, and asked for his help. So did Arjun. Now Krishan had to do something. So he gave a choice to Duryodhan: "Pick me, I'll be a charioteer and promise not to use any of my powers/engage myself into the war. OR pick my army and my brother and artillery etc"

Duryodhan picked tHe army thinking "what good will Krishan do to me?" and Arjun picked Krishan.

Bisham Pitama - On the Kaurav's side - was a wise man. He knew about this promise and did Pratigya to make Krishan break his promise. During the battle between him and Arjun, he aimed at the chariot wheel, shot the arrow, and the wheel fell off. Krishan in Josh picked up the Chariot wheel to use as a weapon. Then Bisham Pitama laughed "hahaaaa ... lol... u promised not to pick up a weapon in battlefield!" Krishan replied: "U did pratigya to break my promise. So I broke mine to keep yours."

So back onto the topic, Akaal Purakh is ready to break His pratigya to keep yours. Therefore, "Heh Man" (in desi accent) Akaal Purakh wil save this bacha to keep your rehit intact.

On the side note: The 1st post seemed biased to me - as in Bundha looks like he already had his answer - which was to break rehit to save the kid.

PS: U can still do chest compressions on a patient who can't breathe. As long as the blood is pumping to the brain - Better than doing nothing at all. Plus: You have special masks if u wish to cover their mouth during mouth to mouth so u can perform it
