bhai sant singh jee

Giani ji as well as being the Jathedar of Damdami Taksal was the Head Granthi (Priest) of Sri Harmandir Sahib. They would always make themselves available to talk with and discuss issues with any Gursikh who would come and see them. They would also take part in the seva of cleansing the Parkarma (outer path), picking up the droppings of birds with their own hands. They would also pick up any hair and burn them as per the Rehat Maryada (Code of Conduct) of a Gursikh. Giani ji would do Seva of Sri Guru Ram Das Sahib ji's Darbar (Court) with much passion. They had such great discipline that even when one of their grandsons passed away they still didn't miss any of their daily Seva.

FIRST OF ALL I WILL BOYCOTT BADAL FROM PANTH, BUT YOU KNOW HE CAN ANNOUCE A NEW JATHEDAR IN THIS SITUATION.

YOU CANT DO ANYTHING TILL BADAL IS HERE.

BUT STILL I WILL BOYCOTT HIM.

I WILL REMOVE ALL GRANTHEES / PAATHEES WHO NEVER TOOK PROPER SANTHYEA FROM GOOD TAKSAL AND FROM LARIWAR SWAROOP AND I WILL GIVE JOBS TO THE SINGHS WHO HAVE TAKEN PROPER SANTHEYA AND KNOW MEANINGS OF GURBANI.

I WILL REMOVE ALL RAAGIS FROM DARBAR SAHIB WHO DO NOT KNOW KIRTAN IN RAAGS, COZ DARBAR SAHIB'S MARYADA IS CLASSICAL KIRTAN.

I WILL GIVE FUNDS TO WHOLE GURDWARAS AND WILL TAKE ALL LOCAL GURUDWARA UNDER SGPC AND REMOVE ALL PRESIDENTS OF GURUDWARAS WHO ARE PATIT AND NON AMRITDHARI.

BAN ON BAND BAJA AND DRUMS IN NAGAR KIRTAN.

BAN ALL DHARMIK SONGS ON BY PATITS AND ALL SONGS WHICH ARE MEANINGLESS.

I WILL GIVE SCHOLARSHIP TO ALL SABAT SOORAT STUDENTS.

OPEN NEW SIKH INTERNATIONAL UNIVERSITIES AND COLLEGES IN ALL COUNTRIES.

AND MUCH MORE THINGS COZ TOO MUCH CHANGE IS NEEDED BUT BEFORE ALL THAT I WILL TRY TO BE A GURSIKH.

"If You Were Made Jathedaar Of Akaal Takht Saaheb..., what would you do?"

I'd do what any other self-respecting Sikh leader would do. Initiate an expensive project (typically the building of a new Gurdwara) giving my family members the top jobs with over inflated wages and then secretly siphon off some of the Sangats donations to build my big kotee somewhere in the Punjab. Then quietly step down from my chair and 'disappear', leaving any financial debts to the Sangat.

    • 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.
