DO NOT DRIVE IF YOU ARE TIRED.

if someone can sit with you and talk to you to keep you awake, then thats fine, otherwise PLEASE avoid driving at all when tired. The consequences of falling asleep while driving are fatal.

After a rainsabai is it possible to sleep over at a frends house nearby to where the Gurudwara program is?

i dunno its not good to be drving on the highway especially when your sleepy, and its easier to fall asleep when you are in a peaceful mind state as in right after a keertan,

or get married and shift to where all the programs are at then in the future itl be convenient to take the whole family hehehe

Will share what i learned from a friend (Truckers son).

He said whenever you feel sleepy on a long drive just park your vehicle and get a few hours sleep.

Better safe than sorry !

So pull down your car seat and take a nap.

Have a quick power nap before leaving. If you MUST drive, then do Ardas before setting off, take some firends with you in the car and tell them not to fall asleep! keep a bottle of water with you and some sweet / high energy food like chocolate etc. The sugar will help you stay awake for a bit and the water as well. You can spray water onto your face if you feel the need. Also, keep the heater off, switch on fresh air and put down your window once in a while - the blast of cold air will help. Have some Red Bull or similar if you drink that stuff.

Stopping at the services and walking aroung / stretching your legs will help wake you up as well.

If you're not up to it, don't risk it.

have some sleep before the programmes in advance have some tea/coffee unless your on no caffeine rehat then you need a designated driver, dont drive tired your endangering not only yourself and your passengers but all road users even kids, old people pedistrians. Get another means of travel train, bus or stay over in someones house for rest then drive back if its too much then cut back the length of time your spending in those programmes leave early or get there late after rest and leave late. Don't risk your life and others lifes.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
