Wow @ Free Advicer i do not agree at all with your statement.

The first thing you did that was totally wrong was hitting a woman/(our sister) if that has a part to play in her leaving then you will have to wait to see if she mellows.

I dont believe that you should play the "bad mother" card as its vindicative and cruel and if she genuinely has fallen out of love with you then you should let her live her life. You should however maintain as much contact with your kids as possible. Research has shown that living unhappily doesnt help kids and divorce is not the end of the world.

Until you are happy within yourself how can anyone be happy with you.Balait_da_sher provided a beautiful quote for you earlier you admonish your wife for not being happy with someone who rents or doesnt have much money in the bank. But i say you are an amrtidhari sikh you are in good health i presume and have 2 wonderful children time to see how good your life really is.

whenever im feeling sad i stop and start feeling awesome instead

I just don't know what to do with myself now. I don't want material things. I have no care for money, wealth, property anymore. My bank is empty and I only work enough to survive. I was wondering if gursikh girls are interested in houses, etc, or are they happy with whatever waheguru gives them? I have seen that although girls are gursikh, they still have demands of houses, etc. Doesnt seem right somehow.

The wife you are looking for is 1 in a billion chance. No disrespect to Singhni's as finding a Singh that doesn't care about houses, etc is also 1 in a billion. Being in sangat we all figure out very quickly that majority of the youth are caught up in worldly ways and the Gursikh youth are not even in these sangats or come on very rare occasions. They bless us with their presence on special occasions. Speaking to one of these youth, they tell us to progress on the path of Sikhi, we all have to get up and do it ourselves with Maharaj Kirpa. What your going through can only be fixed if you tell yourself that only Maharaj can solve the deep feeling of loneliness. No wife, parent, brother, sister can get you out, unless they do Shabad veechar with you. Satguru can only take us out of the deepest pit of hell and into Sachkhand. Satguru can make sinking rocks float and cross over.

In this temporal world we all look for circumstance to fill the emptiness in our life. With all due respect, your wife was looking for a temporary thing to fill the emptiness in her life. And she found you for a short period time. Then once she got bored of you and the emptiness came back, she found something else. Now she's living on another temporary filler, which we refer to as children and the potential next spouse to come. This is a vicious cycle and we see people doing this all the time, including ourselves. Buy a car talk about it all day and feel really proud of it and when it gets a bit old then it's worth nothing to you and then we look for another car that will fill the emptiness. This is all circumstantial and a really crappy way to live.

You have two children, so now get the motivation through Gurbani to keep providing for them and say to yourself that your working for them. The fact your in a sad state shows your wife that you need her. She wants you to change to her conditions and then maybe she'll take you back. Again she wants to make you into a circumstance that she loved. Only Gursikhs notice the atma in a person. Everyone esle doesn't love the atma, they love what the person has become to favor their way of thinking. Love is such a strong word that circumstantial people don't understand it. Don't give in and keep providing for your kids. As it's hard to do, but always stay in Chardikala.

Start listening to Sri Sukhmani Sahib da paat. This paat will remove the sad state your in.

Thank you for a measured response. Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji says that money/material wealth is not important, so with Guru's grace I stand by that. If he wants me to be with someone I will, otherwise I have my kids to provide for. A lot of todays Sikh youth are that way for sure...they are looking to have the material wealth thats is associated with this false world we are in. I trust in Waheguru to do what is best.

    • 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!!
