Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh

I wore a chola today with some shastars in my dumalla. My bibi didn't like it and took the mickey saying stuff like "Its halloween tomorrow not today" and that i should go trick or treating like this tomorrow because people are going to think im a ghost. :@

I tried explaining to her that it's uniform of the khalsa and about khalsa fauj wearing chola and being thiaar par thiaar etc but she said "why would you go to jung in a ghagari" I didnt know what to say. Could someone tell me what I could say to her? I have worn a chola before but this is the first time she has said anything. The weird thing is that she's a gursikh and lived most of her life in punjab.

I think I know who this might be lol. You shouldn't really care about what people think, that's what I do. When I wore a dastaar to school for the first time my 'sikh' friends talked about me behind my back. At first it really annoyed me but now I've gotten over it. Focus on your Gursikhi rehit, and I'm sure your bibi was only joking :D . Lol and was you giving out water at the langar hall at soho road Gurdwara today by any chance? If so, I know who you are lol. :LOLz:

if u have trouble with family instead of showing up suddenly with dummala shasters and banna go slow ... and do read banni and do ur naam simren waking up early in the morning doing ishnan ... once ur family has in mind ur growing internally to no one will stop you from growing externally .... and shift towards banna slowly .... else its very natural to have a surprised family !!!

ji i do my amritvela every morning and took amrit a couple of weeks ago. This isn't the first time i wore bana or shastars in my dumalla. They never really said anything good or bad about it before up till now. sikh in melbourne, your right she does think that its only for nihangs. Could someone post some gurbani about bana that shows its not only for nihangs. Thanks.

A singh in bana looks so handsome, God knows why these punjabi bibis dont like bana. I also wear bana. Initially, people around me thought I had gone mad. Now, they have realized I have become a BABA hahahahaahahahaha

    • The Mind is Jyot Saroop (Waheguru), but the mind is under the influence of five evils… Through Naam Simran( Rememberance), the mind will begin to detach from evil, and get back to its original form ( MANN TU JYOT SAROOP HEH)… Until the mind breaks free from the five evils, one will go through the cycle of paap and punn….which leads to Karma… Naam Simran destroys past karma, and prevents new karma coming into fruition… I did this, I did that… This non realisation of the Jyot Saroop gives rise to paap and Punn, which in turn gives birth to suffering and misery…
    • 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!!
