The actual Mool mantar ends in "gurprasaad" (that's the way it's written elsewhere in Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji too). Many people just read it until "nanak hosee bhee sach."

Anyway Bhaji, i wish i could give you some wonderful advice too, but i can't concentrate on school either, or most other things.. it's really stressful, when i would really like to do the assignments and i start writing but it's so unstimulating that i just start thinking and doing something else instead, and then it never gets done even though i might try very hard. And the pile of unfinished homework, missed deadlines and failed courses just grows. I tried some medication too, but i didn't like the side effects. I don't know your situation but i hope you're doing a bit better at least!

this issue reminds me of something Bhai Joginder Singh ji said at Khalsa camp this year, about concentrating while doing paath.. that it's NATURAL for the mind to wander.. but when it wanders, let it wander in the Garden of Guru Sahib! (ie. think about some other tuk from SGGS ji or something about sikh history etc.) :)

everytime your mind wanders, make a mark on a piece of paper. over time count the ticks within every hour space of studying. then u will know at what times mind wanders most, when is best to study.

also, eat protein first thing in morning, helps wake u up. do exercise, cardio especially is vital to helping with school. the first 2 weeks u may be more tired, but later it will actually boost your energy. lots of times people can' t focus b/c they are too stressed, exercise and paath both are needed to get rid of this excess stress.

You should do Gurbani (begin with Japji Sahib) before going to school in the morning and also do an Ardaas.

When you come back home, be sure to revise all your lessons and do all your tasts. Before and after that do 5 mins Naam Simran or Kirtan, depending on your abilities (if you can do kirtan or not, etc).

Hope it helped.

    • 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!!
