Cent percent. Veer jeo. Have you experienced any change by doing this.Answer this if you are convenient in answerig.It is my inquisitiveness. Though I am fully convinced about this.

As soon as you notice an evil entering you, or is there, best thing to do is just switch the mind to naam simran.

However, i hear some people say that we should control, and not abolish our 5 evils.

You can think whatever you like. :D

Naam Simran is a thunderbolt to blast all the 5 vices. In case they try to return, you would need a slippery floor for them to slip and not re-enter your mind. This slippery floor is provided by tears of bairaag. In a state of bairaag, none of the 5 vikaars can dare to come near you. Naam Simran combined with bairaag will repel them very strongly.

And bairaag is...?

Bairaag should not be confused with depression. Its a feeling when you feel the longing for Akal Purakh and come to tears, when you feel so full of His grace and can't thank Him enough and come to tears. Bairaag is a blessing. Its not sadness or sorrow. I am unable to fully define it, but I hope you get what I am saying.

Bairaag is detatchment from the worldy things.It is a stage where one may not be considered normal.

One will become introvert to the extent that it may be called as selfish, some may call that one has become haughty and arrogant. Othersmay think that he is not normal.One may attain this kind of state if one has spent entire youth in Gurbani and at 50/ 60+ he can be a Bairagi. But there are only a few these days.

Keep your chanting and Simran on waheguru that's we can do.

Waheguru ji.

Selfishness and arrogance arise out of vikaars and these can't come close to you in a state of Bairaag. Also, you don't have to wait to be 60 years old, it can hit you whenever Gurujee does kirpa. Please kindly explain what you mean.

    • 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.
