besoft and khalsa4ever have got it correct, there are no "physical" places. In short, no, there is no Hell, but there is "hell" to get it. ;)

satori, besoft, khalsa, bhen jis and bhai ji's - Just a point that I have learned from life and bani, you just cannot be sure what ANYTHING is (hell/heaven)

We dont know anything, we just comprehend and try to guess so that EVERYTHING makes sense to us. And then we try to stand by that point which we THINK is right until someone contradicts it..and someone always does.

:)

Whether hell is physical or of a spirutual torture state, bottom line it is a place where you DO NOT want to be. Simple as that.

As per the jamdoots, lol..everything is the lord, the lord is everything, those who deserve to be scared by jamdoots, the lord scares them as he wishes, those whom the divine lord wishes to sing his glorious plraises and thank him for everything, this life etc, they sing, we all dance as he wishes us too.

In Aarti we recite

Ese Chand partaap tey

devan vadeo partaap

Teen lok Je Je kare

Rare naam sat jaap

In Jap ji sahib, it is said there are countless planets, countless galaxies with his beings, we just dont know about them because we dont need to know.

His creations are spread throughout the universe and he takes care of them all as he wishes, as they deserve, Great is his way of justice.

How and why..we dont know. We have been given the instructions on how to obtain him and what will happen if we dont, and also if we follow the five demons in our body, kaam krodh, moh etc.

The deep details our human minds cannot understand and we dont need to know, we can keep arguing like fools, but everything we need to do has been clearly defined and proved again and again.

Well for starters, people have tried to tell the world what it is. Though, just like them, I cannot tell you, too what it is, you have to feel it, experience it so to say. The topic was being discussed if there is hell and if so, what about punishment? do you get punished even if there is no hell, and my answer to that will still be no.

o common, you do know everything, you just don't remember...

fair enough, but people ought to get out of the whole physical state of hell, it'll just cause more misery in people's lives and fear... talk about healthy living bahaha!

Hell is not wanting to be at gurus charan, hell is not wanting to be a gursevak, hell is being aboserved by 5 evils, hell is not remembering waheguru with every breath, hell is being attached to things that wont get us anywhere, hell is not seeing waheguru in every human being.

i think im in hell :sad:

    • 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.
