Recommended Posts

Wjkk Wjkf!

I have a question to ask you guys! Can you Amrit Chak at home because I was amrit chack at home and my mom is a amritdhari and she amrit chak me (With Real Amrit from Darbar Sahib). My mom did all the things she did like give me some sprinkles of amrit on my kesh, eyes and did Mool Mantar.

Am I a Amritdhari or Am I not a amritdhari.

(It was in the room and we have a Guru Granth Sahib ji)

I know the rules too.

Ask your mom and tell us whats she says. Also ask her about "real" amrit from Darbar Sahib.

NOPE you still need to go in front of the Guru Sahib and Panj pyare and give your head to the guru. and drink fromt he same bowl as others who have come to take amrit.

There are certain hukams that Panj pyare give and rule they tell you. I should definitly go infront of the panj pyare give you head to Guru Sahib.

Do you have 5 Amritdhari people at your home or only 1? (You need a 7 for 1 Granthi and 1 Amritdhari watching to see if it follows Rehat). Do you have the proper Bhatta and Khanda? Do you have the right sugar pieces, (I don't know what it's called)? Amrit Sanchar requires a lot of things, it's not easy to create Amrit. (Some GurSikhs did take GurSikh ceremonies from their home like Sukhdev Singh Babbar's Anand Karaj, while some toke Amrit in prisons like Balwant Singh Rajoana), you could always invite the Punj Pyare to your home and ask them to give you Amrit there if for whatever reason you can't go to the Gurdwara.

VAHEGURU JI KA KHALSA, VAHEGURU JI KI FATEH

You were probably given what is called choola. It is a means to commit you and your parents to raise you as a Sikh. It is not Amrit as in Khanda-Batta Amrit as created by the Punj Pyare in the presence of Sahib Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji with Rehat, imparting of Naam and Mool Mantar, and the like. You would not be considered a part of the Khalsa Panth - more like a trainee :biggrin2: .

It is typically conducted at birth, but I don't know of any restrictions to prevent this to be imparted after birth.

Details: http://www.damdamitaksaal.org/code-of-conduct#h1-birth-ceremony-janam-sansakar-first-ceremony - Janam Sanskar

Nothing prevents an Amrit Sanchar being conducted at home, bu the requirements are laid out in detail here:

Note: I am posting Maryada from Damdami Taksal as it is more in depth than the other Maryadas that are posted, not as an endorsement of any particular Jathebandi. All Jathebandis have to prepare similarly for an Amrit Sanchar and there are very few minor variations.

It takes a lot more than the 5k's to create Amrit, it takes Punj Pyare, Granthi, and a watcher,(don't know the correct term). It also takes a Bhatta and Khanda for Amrit.

You could always ask the Punj Pyare to give it to you at your home, (they may allow you, IDK). You could always chak Amrit at a different Gurdwara.

    • 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.
