Am i prepared?


Recommended Posts

When we are leaving this world for the next one, it shall be like a trip to

another country.

Where details of that country won't be found in glamorous travel Brochures

but in the Holy Granth.

Where our plane won't be British Airways, Air India or American Airlines

but Air Khefen.

Where our luggage won't be the allowed 23 kgs but our deeds no matter how

heavy they weigh.

You don't pay for excess luggage. They are carried free of charge. With your

Creator's compliment.

Where our dress won't be a Pierre Cardin suit or the like but the white

cotton shroud

Where our perfume won't be Chanel, Paco Rabane, but the camphor and attar.

Where our passports won't be British, French or American but " Amrit "

Where our visa won't be the 6 months leave to stay but the "Anhad Bani"

Where the in-flight services won't be 1st class or economy but a piece of

beautifully scented or foul smelling dehi.

Where our waiting lounge won't be nice carpeted and air-conditioned rooms

but the 8 feet of ghee soaked logs.

Where our place of destination won't be Heathrow Terminal 1 or India

International Terminal but the burning log of woods thirsty to engulf you

Where the Immigration Officer won't be Her Majesty's officers but Chitth

and Guptth.

They only check out whether you deserve the place you yearn to go.

Where there is no need for Customs Officers or detectors.

Where the transit airport will be Dharam Raj Inn.

Where our final place of destination will be either the Garden under which

rivers flow or the Hellfire.

This

trip does not come with a price tag. It is free of charge. So your

savings would not come handy.

This flight can never be hijacked so do not worry about terrorists.

Food won't be served on this flight so do not worry about your allergies or

whether the food is Vege.

Do not worry about legroom; you won't need it, as your legs will become

things of the past.

Do not worry about delays. This flight is always punctual. It arrives and

leaves on time.

Do not worry about the in-flight entertainment programme because you would

have lost all your sense of joy

Do not worry about booking this trip, it has already been booked the day

you became a foetus in your mother's womb.

Ah! At last good news!

Do not worry about who will be sitting next to you. You will have the

luxury of being the only passenger.

So enjoy it while you can. If only you can!

One small snag though, this trip comes with "no warning".

AM I PREPARED ?

    • Umm, that's totally irrational, bro. There are plenty of prakash-dara Singhs in Punjab (less than we'd like, but still plenty). No one cares that you are sabat soorat. It isn't 1986. You can walk around in chola, kurta-pajama, or jeans. Whatever. If you want the look @dallysingh101 is referring to, just go into a cheap clothing shop (not a Western-style mall) and buy some shirts for 250 rupees or a track suit for 2000 rupees. You'll get the cheap stuff made in some sweatshop in Bombay.
    • 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!!
