Thankless I am

Thankless I am, for being totally blind

Calling you cruel, although YOU were kind

Thankless I am, for throwing all the blame

When it was my mind that was totally lame

Thankless I am, for calling them bad times

Which actually cut the sins of my past crimes

Thankless I am, for not understanding

That YOU always give, and yet I am demanding

Thankless I am, for not being able to rejoice

And not knowing that every sound, was nothing but YOUR voice

Thankless I am, for being such a fool

Unaware that YOU gave me, every possible tool

Thankless I am, for never apologizing

Always drawing conclusions after senseless analyzing

Thankless I am, for always complaining

Crying for what I lost, forgetting what I am gaining

Thankless I am, for whenever life was hell

I lost my faith, and would cry and yell

Thankless I am, I ran after this world

Wounds and pain, that is what it hurled

Thankless I am, as my mistakes are repeated

My weak human eyes don't see YOU, so high YOU are seated

Thankless I am, the most thankless one ever

And yet YOU love and care for me, and forget me never

the mul mantra is pauri number 1, not zero

oh no, not another controversy that plagues the sikh panth.

i would say its pauri 0, because its the timeless message from god, like god it has no end, or beginning, just like 0.

everything else was built up after the mool mantra. but the mool mantra is the source of all, hence, its timeless.

everything around us orignated from 0, without this, counting would be stupid, you have to thank zero that we have computers so we can discuss sikhi! yes zero is behind computers as well ji! that is the source of everything.

in the same way sangato, the mool mantra has built up our faith. with out the mool mantra (the source of all), would we not be different? wouldnt our lives be affected ji? just as is if we didnt have zero, would we not be affected?

zero is behind our worldly stuff, the mool mantra is a timeless message from akal purakh. just like zero, the mool mantra has no beginning, and no end.

the mool mantra is more or less a summary of SGGS, after the mool mantra is explained in detail the teachings of god, thats when the pauri's start.

so...

mool mantra, timless message from god, has no end or beggining (like zero)

the pauris after the mool mantra are a more in depth view of the teachings of the gurus, hence the reason of the "sochai soch nai hovai" etc is pauri number 1

    • 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.
