I cried reading that honestly.

You made 2 contrasting coments. You went to a fake baba! when you got REAL saints like nanaksarr wale. The sant that convinces you of black magic is wrong. I believe in sants and baba but only the good not the ones that say something has been done to you by neighbour.

look this is where the problem lies, just stare at yourself in the mirror without making any effort to look good, like bed hair, drowsy eyes etc. look into your eyes and convince yourself that there are people in the world that will find you gorgeous.

Tell yourself you are beautiful. look, there are people living with horrible diseases. just look at Guru Ji's 4 sons that gave their lives for US! at such young ages, because they loved Sikhi. Trust me you are a beautiful being, and besides beauty lies in the eyes of the beholder...........

But Sir I have myself seen my neighbour throwing burnt ash on my head in 2006 then she Hid her face.....I never believed in these things myself but when it happened with me I had horrible dreams I could'nt sleep whole night I have something like Hallucinations seeing Dark Pictures...It all happened when I changed my school from Guru Nanak Public CBSE,Ludhiana to Guru Harkrishan Public,Ludhiana I lose everything then I came back to my school 10 months later everything was then OK.....Depression has been ruining my Life whole day No friend circle at that time No Support Nothing I had in My Life except Tears and Failure...I have been an average student in my School though

I can understand how you might feel.
All I can say is... it is really your choice. Who do YOU want to please? God or society. I know its easy saying then doing. Here in the west is worse. People say worse things and don't even recognize you are a sikh, but muslim. But.... Sikhs who have high love for Waheguru, God has also given them high power to deal with these. I am not saying tolerate it... Educate them, ignore them because you know what you are doing is actually right, not wrong. People who are strong in Sikhi have a REASONS to keep their hair. The reasons are Hukam of our Father Guru Gobind Singh ji, Dasam Dwaar, power of Hair in spiritually.

We spend soo many lives pleasing people, but when will we start pleasing God who gives us love, food, family, clothing and everything!

And one thing I can garunteeee you! A person, who is Amritdhari, does full Nitnem... dark maggic and NEVER approach him/her. It is a fact! I have seen many many incidents! Because the person has power of Gurbani, power of Waheguru... and no magic is abover then His power. This also tells you how much Gurbani has power, and how much power hair has... Gurbani says to keep our hair in many many places!

You know Guru Sahib ji always says that in God's Court, the true and the false are separated out, while true Gursikhs go to Sanchkhand, false go to hell. Isnt it true in this world too? Even in this word... kaliyug.. only true once remain intact in sikhi, weak once go off path easily.

Choice is yours brother You are from a very good family where Sikhi was blessed to you by birth, here we have to FIND it.

I think you lack Sangat of Gursikhs.

Start attending evening Deewaan at Dukhnivaran Sahib.

Then volunteer for Seva at Jorha Ghar, Langar hall, Chabeel etc

Try attending Shabad Chownki at Sukhaasan every now & then.

Do it for seven days and see !

I think you should move to a location where you won't worry about society. I believe you should move somewhere in Toronto, like Brampton. I live in Michigan, but when I visited my cousin in Brampton, he too is a Sikh with a turban. And he also went through the same struggle you have about looks and what other people think. But after moving to Brampton, he realized mos of the people there are Sikhs. He then went to his neighbour (who is also a Sikh) and explained the trouble he was having. After, his neighbour explained/expressed to him that all Sikhs go through this period of doubt and what society thinks of them. But it is the persons choice of wether taking the route of Sikhism or Society. He then realized that Sikhs cannot stay alone, but stick toghether. I hope this helped you through this rough time you are having in your life, and I hope you pick the right path for your lifestyle.
