you are looking at sikhi as the colonial contrust of sikh"ism".

sikhi is a panth, sikhs pratice dharma and not religion. Religion is followed by christians and muslims, ie goras and arabs.

sikh is a learner. a sikh doesn't learn to follow or practise learning, instead a sikh is a learner. Religions are more about following. A sikh learns from the Guru.

Sikhi is not a religion, it is Gurbani. Gurbani is not a religion, it is Truth.

Truth cannot be confined to a religion, Truth is God, how can He be confined to one religion. Hence the statement 'No Hindu No Muslim'. We are all one(God), there are no religions, that is the Truth, it was a huge realisation of Truth for Guru Ji who had been immersed in simran(Truth Gyan comes on it's own during simran- God speaking to us).

The Gurus added the Truth Gyan many bhagats had configured in the times before their own (our Guru's) births and this avoids any confusion as to whether sikhi is a religion or if Gurbani and Truth is and has been the Guru throughout the ages.

Gurbani states that in Satyug, only truth existed. Gurbani has been around for a very very long time people, it is nothing new- the gurus who are/ have been attuned to the Truth Guru that is Gurbani take on a seva to awaken the lost brothers and sisters and put them on the path to discover the Truths they have themselves discovered, on their own.

Hence once the bhagats get deep into their simran(attunement to the frequency of God/Truth/Gyan/Guru/Gurbani) and bhagti, they are able to write their own verses having not only read the gyan from their own Guru/Gurbani and implemented its instructions/gyan, but also expereinced/discovered it physically first hand- The discovery becomes their own.

this last paragraph is so much fire... 110% on point

    • 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.
