...Sikhism is a religion that believes in acting, doing sewa, etc etc, not just sitting on your "bum" and doing paht all day.

YES!! Now there is something i fully agree with !! GREAT POST!!

bhul chuk maph!

But NEVR EVER forget that pathh makes us very very strong internally.So do sewa but to shed ur ego DO NOT misjudge the importance of pathh. I know we guyz share the same view but I just wanted to make the things more clear.

From Bhai Sahib Bhai Randheer Singh Jee's autobiography "Jail Chittiaan"

In there it says that Bhagat Singh actually confesses to Bhai Sahib that he did not in fact shoot the man for whose murder Bhagat Singh was convicted. Furthermore, Bhagat Singh confesses that half his motivation for his actions were popularity and recognition. He confesses that before cutting his hair, even when he had a turban he was an empty shell and had no faith in God. After saying this all at some point he becomes distraught and guilty. Bhai Sahib deeply and emotionally consoles Bhagat Singh and explains about the Gurmat teachings about his life and his soul. Bhagat Singh becomes filled with renewed hope. He tells Bhai Sahib that he now has faith in God. After that point on, Bhagat Singh did in fact believe that his soul would go on (in rebirth) and he would not just "die" into nothingness like atheists believe, and in fact he had another chance to come back in to the human life. In his honest effort from that time until his death Bhagat Singh did keep his kes and he did read gurbani.

Bhul chuk maaf karnaa jee

All jails must keep a log of all people who come to visit prisinors, which must have been especially true during British Raj. I've heard a lot of arguments both ways about Bhai Sahib Randhir Singh visiting Bhagat Singh. To clear up this debate, wouldn't it be easier to get hold of the visitor's logs at around the approximate time that Bhai Sahib went to visit him.

Does anybody know if this has already been done?

Acutally, according to Jail Chittian, Bhagat Singh wanted to meet Bhai Sahib Bhai Randheer Singh Ji before his execution. Bhai Sahib knew that Bhagat Singh had cut his hair, and he refused to see him. Right before his execution, he met Bhai Sahib, and Bhai Sahib told him that it would noble of him to keep his hair and die as a Sikh. After this meeting, Bhagat Singh became a Sikh.

    • 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.
