you need bani to strengthen yourself, and regular proper sangat. avoid bad sangat that creates doubts in you mind, even if that 'bad' sangat are all friends. i recommend reading gurmukh jeevans to see how much they have sacrificed, read sant jeevans, and listen to katha on the Gurus lives. this will build up faith and strength.

I'm add on to Sunsinghs post, I hope he doesn't mind. You don't have to run in either direction. This is what you need to do: Start off by doing Ardas and then reading Sri Chaupai Sahib da paat. Here is the link to the paat: http://www.chaupaisahib.org/downloads/articles/Chaupai_Sahib_With_Transliteration.pdf

Once your done reading the above Gurbani, then think back to the snakes infront of you. Keep one question in mind. Am I going to save my worldly life or become the Sikh of the Guru. For this you need to read Sri Anand Sahib da paat. All 40 pauris. The Paat starts on ang 917 of Satguru Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji Maharaj. Once the decision is made whether to take the Guru's path or your own path, then read Sri Chaupai Sahib da paat one more time. Then to complete dong paat read Chandi Di Vaar from Sri Dasam Granth Sahib ji Maharaj. This paat starts on ang 297. Here is the link: http://searchgurbani.com/dasam_granth/page/297 After doing all these Banis, do Ardas infront of Maharaj. Here is a link to the Ardas: http://www.rajkaregakhalsa.net/ardaas1.htm

Do this for 5 days striaght and you will have your answer. Pick a quiet clean place to do all the paat. Throughout these five days always be thinking about the paat you did and always be doing Waheguru simran throughout the day.

How would I stay focused on Bani?

I loose my concentration

    • 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!!
