Why so harsh, maybe she got pregnant and then in the period of 9 months decided to come back on the sikhi route? Before assuming, lets try and understand the circumastances ay? or maybe she still isn't on the sikhi route but wants to get married. Mistakes do happen u know. If she isn't amritdhaari then noone has done anything wrong and we can not blame the op or anyone.

Mistakes do happen, whatever happened happened, its important to learn from your mistakes and move on, you must come in terms with your mistake otherwise your mistake happened in the past won't let you move fwd in sikhi and will hold you back..i would say do ardas infront of guru maharaj asking for permission to be in anand karaj with that person, asking for permission to start from fresh(post anand karaj) with that person, take hakumnama from guru maharaj and follow through anand karaj vows going fwd, do extra gurbani patt/play gurbani specially during pregnancy time...everything will be fine..we don't believe in this christian/protestant form of sin (oh you made a mistake, you be doomed in hell)- main idea in sikhi if you made a mistake is to man up be honest with yourself, accept your mistake, learn from your mistake, do personal ardas infront of sri guru granth sahib, take hakumnama- follow through hakumnama and move on rest of sikh spiritual journey - Bhai Prapat Manukh Dehuria Gobind Milan ki Eh Teri Baria- You have gotten human life after long time, this is your chance to meet you Vahiguroo...!!!

Please speak with some elderly Gursikh known to you. Better if there is more than one. Not really asking you to go to Panj Pyaare, but if you could consult 5 devout Singhs and speak to them, I am sure they could guide you better. This is a real life situation so I would suggest speaking to someone wise enough, or someone who has been through a similar ordeal, if not worse. An online forum is definitely helpful, but this is something not many on here may have an advise on.

Let's put it this way-

1) It's better to have anand karaj whilst pregnant than having them with your little toddler running about !!

2) If you don't have anand karaj, then you will live together without any wedlock in faith.

Would you feel more comfortable then ??

No matter what reasons you come up with, you are NOT going to find a good enough reason to NOT have anand karaj in this instance.

Of that, i'm pretty sure !!!

Do ardas, ask for forgiveness for whatever reason youv'e ended up in this situation.

Wahguru is more forgiving than anyone on this planet !!

But you have to have faith and you shouldn't make a habit of commiting mistakes under the impression that you will be forgiven !!

I think the difficulty lies in the fact that people should be married first and then have sex. It sounds like the opposite has happened here.

I don't think there is anything prohibiting this other than social culture. It may look awkward if you've progressed far enough in the pregnancy that others notice.

Go see Maharaj Ji and speak to Him.

I think it should be the same as for a normal sikh........whatever happened....is gone...can't be undone....that doesn't stop anyone to follow the techings and beliefs.........apologize from Guru ji and move forward with whatever you have on hand........as a normal sikh would do.......if you keep thinking about one thing...you won't be able to get over and move forward........

      Concept of Sin

      By BhForce · Posted

      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

      Fake Baba

      By BhForce · Posted

      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.

      Fake Baba

      By Singh1989 · Posted

      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!!

      Is suraj parkash right? is it a reliable source of info?

      By BhForce · Posted

      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.
