First lets define what Religion is and who is a religious person.

Relgion is falling in tune with the whole, falling in love with the whole, falling in a togethereness with the whole.  A religious person is one who is not against the whole and the irreligious is one who is fighting the whole, is in confilct with the whole.  The religious person is life-affirmative.  The irreligious person is life-negative.  To the religious person all is good--his affirmation is absolute and total.  Nothing is wrong; even if it appears at time that it is wrong, it cannot be wrong.  It must be a misunderstanding, a misinterpretation.  It must be based somewhere in our ignorance because we don't know the whole story.  So maybe some parts look as if not fitting with teh whole.  We have not heard the whole song, so some note appear to fall out of line.  But everything has to be good if there is God.  God is guarantee of goodness.  Evil, as such cannot exist.  If it appears, it must be a nightmare of our own minds; we must have created it.

The religious mind denies not.  His affirmation is absolute, unconditional.  He says yes to existence.  And his 'yes' has no condition--remember it; when he says yes he means it.  If you find a person who says no to existence, to life, to this and that, then remember, he is just an egoist--not religious at all.  He is fighting the whole, trying to prove himself the conqueror, trying to prove that he is something special.  He is doomed to fail.  His frustration is so

oner or later going to be; it cannot be avoided for long, it is predestined.  It is predestined by his own attitude of conflict.  Religion is cooperation--cooperation with all that is.

    • 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.
