Sat sri akaal.

I am punjabi sikh. I always topped in class went to best college and got best job. I get really a good punjabi girl who was punjabi but pure heart. I treat all well and thought I only had moh not ehnkaar. I recited sukhmani sahib daily

 

After 3 months of marriage me and my wife had severe accident. She got head injury my bloodviens were ruptured both of us see death and after long time we recovered with effects.

 

I became amritdhari this year. But part of me was angry with God. 

Now I again become complicated  with urinary problems and wad tested positive for hcv. Had to be operated with 50 percent chances of success. My amrit was stopped as my hair of body were cut.  I blamed God and become tensed. My tension lead to my wife loosing hearing of one ear. And we are living apart I love her too much.

 

My misfortune grows so I started to think of either jumping in river or hanging myself but I don't garner strength to do it.

 

Only now I realised that I had ehnkaar all of my life and when I know it I cried a lot. And recite sukhmani sahib again.

 

The problem is I am not afraid of death but my mom for my wife is not allowing me to live in peace as I am responsible for all her pain.

 

Please guide me how to minimise moh to my wife and accept death separation as true reality. Even thought of living dying without her is unbearable.  How to control moh. Please please.

Really need advice. Has anyone has such experience?

Nimanaa Jee,

very very sorry for your painful experiences. Do not commit any nonsense by jumping anywhere to suicide, or by any other means....

Just tell me one thing, do you really think Wahiguru Akal Purukh has anything to do, in this your hard times.

Just think, before this birth, where, or in which joonees were you, let´s say in your past 200 years ? Can you answer this?

If not, then behave yourself and be barambaar thankful to Wahiguru, for giving the chance to be born in human form, so that you can do His bhajan bandagee as per Gurmat, and get out for once and ever from this mayavee creation. So, if you suicide, how can you ever achieve that high goal, of meting and merging in Him.

You see, He knew your destiny karma of this birth of yours, which by the way, are your own sown seeds, and in spite of knowing all that, He blessed you with this human form, out of His utmost love for you,so that you cut off all your karmas, all your bandhans in this creation, by doing the right devotion and merge your surtee in Him.

And here, you are blaming Him somehow, partly ....By your painful experiences you are just paying off your heavy load of karmas, which once again, are not a product of  pure chance, but by the laws which govern this creation, as you sow, so shall you reap. Aapay bhejay, aapay khaae.

Be brave, be a true sikh, face life as it is, by love and faith at His Lotus feet at all times, without wavering, and you shall be ferried across, by His apaar kirpa.

 

Sat Sree akal.

I have two  shabads that are really very moh-destructive but again moh maya is according to sachepatshahs hukam.

may be same shabad means everything to me but nothing to some other person.

Those are some tough times to go through and it seems they are not exactly over.  

It seems you are stuck in the past.  Majority of your energy is being spent on feeling bad for what you have gone through in the past.  I think you need to focus on the here and now.  We can't change the past.  Pain does not go away by ending your life.  Trying to make sense of the past to learn from your mistakes is productive but you need the right tools to analyze it.  This whole system of paying for past deeds in a past life is way tooooo complicated to understand.  I wouldn't take a random person's opinion of it as the gospel.  It's a math equation only understood by the Gurmukhs.   Start today with a clean life.  From this day forward you are going to work toward the Gurus path.  Best way to start is by doing ardas for what you want in life.  Then pick your favorite paath and read it with utmost attention.  Your mind is probably racing, thinking about what you could have had by now if all this misery didn't come in your life.  Let go and start reading Gurbani for direction in life.  Some make the mistake of reading Gurbani so they will receive something materialistic when truly they need santokh.  They think the materialistic object or affection will give them comfort, but it's the thing that is causing the pain.  

Self reflection is wonderfu when we have the right tools to do it.  Many in their imbalanced emotional state try to look for answers.  This leads to self destructive ways.  Right now you are running after time, trying to catch up.  The way to beat the clock is by focusing on the now through the Gurus instructions.

Guest Difficult times

Please do not do anything to hurt yourself. Contact the sikh help line in uk or similar if abroad. See your gp and contact a counsellor who could help you.

Later marriage counselling for both of you.

It is good you are doing paath. Try to make time to visit gurdwara and do seva. This will help you as you take faith in Guru who is going to help you resolve and take you through the karma and challenges in life.

 

Find a Gursikh who is in the community who is living rehit and can perhaps mediate (help negotiate) between you and your wife. Whether yours or her family are present or not depending on how helpful family is. 

In the mean time work to become a better person, work on your personal issues and deal with you inner self. One way to do this in Sikhi is to sit and do simran whether you start with two minutes and slowly extend it. Free your mind and let vaheguru lead your path.

    • We have lamp (or Jyot) the pure unscented candle for a reason. Traditionally, Patis used candle light (jyot), so they could read SGGS in darkness. Light, elec didn't exist. Dhoop is used to attract the "Good spirits" but also keep freshness where Maharaj will be.  Interestingly and coincidentally I heard Sakhi a few dsys ago. During Dasa Pitha's time these souls were roaming the Earth and even Sangat noticed. Maharaj asked them "y u here?" They replied during recitation of SGGS and making Degh they didn't bother lighting candle. THAT WAS THEE ONLY REASON NO GATI WAS GIVEN TO THEM!!!  AUTHENTICITY NOT CHECKED I heard once on YT like 2 days ago.  If u apply dhoop in one room of your house twice a week u will notice a difference esp in the smell and freshness of that room. 
    • Sangat ji, With the hot weather as per Guru's Hukm, how can we look after our kes?  First of all the beard! Working in Construction, factory and any other heated environment I UNDERSTAND! At my workplace it's over 32 degree celcius and sometimes we have to lift 20kg ALL! DAY! My tips, regularly shampoo the beard during ishnan. APPLY OIL! The technique of applying oil is by rubbing it thoroughly in the roots. Pay attention to the noise esp on the chin. You will hear this "crosh crosh" noise. Keep rubbing oil until u can't hear it no more! This means the oil has blended in properly.  Second tip on beard, keep an extra kanga in your pocket. Every two, three hours give your beard a proper comb down to get rid of any sweat or stickiness. SECOND BENEFIT! Do this all 12 months every single day your beard will look like it's been professionally groomed. TRY IT! People will ask you "What gel u use? How can yer beard be naturally like that?" You can say all I use is coconut oil or whaeva oil but just comb the beard every 2-3 hours for a minute.  As for the kes, morning time get rid of all the gronjra (or knots - forgotten English word), in the morning. However, during evening comb down make sure you get rid of small remaining gronjra and comb yer hair nice and straight. You will feel soooo so relaxed. Yes our hair will go unnoticed due to Dastar, but our hair demands time and self grooming!So proper combing down, spending a good 15-20 mins most evenings is an absolute MUST!  Most evenings I let my hair down and cover hair with my parna for 2-3 hours so it gets to relax from the tying up.  FINAL TIP! We are Sikhs so we keep fighting and remember this! The tradition of Dastar and uncut hair started in India, where the weather is twice as hot. Everytime we bring this thought in the mind, Guru ji will bless us and make us feel cooled down by a notch.  Fateh.       
    • Been so much nindya and attacking Shastarvidiya since the 2000s, however if we look at gatka now it's still mostly as poor and poorly taught as it was back then, still morris dancing moves and still behzti moves in BBC shows about sikhi and vaisakhi. If people were going to attack shastarvidiya, wouldn't have made sense to improve gatka instead and make it more effective? Additionally, the Nihang Singh presence has improved greatly now, and the cracks within the the SGPC and affiliated jatha jathebandis are showing more greatly as panth becomes more knowledgable with dasam bani and itihas day-by-day, so much gyaan which was lost within panjabi sikhs during colonial times. In the 2000s, the groups were able to talk down this bani and  gyaan by associating it with  RSS and hindus, brahminwaad etc. Not working so well now is it? However with gyaan it would be also good for us to try and preserve our martial arts and keertan vidiya as well! More and more crazy keertan videos are coming out from jatha members that are being made fun of and making sangat annoyed and upset, on tiktok and instagram reels.  
    • Author Posted April 24   On 4/21/2025 at 2:43 PM, ipledgeblue said: sirr should not be nanga because keski is usually worn.   Sikhs can sleep nanga-sirr if they choose to . Being from Punjab, almost every Sardaarji i know (amritdhari or not) sleeps/showers with their hair uncovered. I don't think Guru Sahib asked us to wear Dastar to sleep and I don't think it is in SRM.   The idea of "keski being worn to sleep" is cos in Bollywood films (Bachna Ae Haseeno) Sikh characters usually tie a gol parna when sleeping since the actor's usually Hindu. So they gotta cover his head somehow or he'd have cut hair. Same reason Diljit wore a pagg to bed in the El Sueno vid. Only time they didn't do that was in Gadar with Sunny Deol which just looked odd tbh   What in the world? What sikh or even a decent human would base their knowledge of their culture or religion on a movie industry, that too Bollywood?  Believe me, no sikh ever said, I must cover my head becasue an actor did so in a movie. I've been doing it all wrong, I must start covering mh head because the sikh in that movie did.  Just because every panjabi and sardaar you know, does something, also doesn't make it right..  Follow the guru. And if you have a medical condition, then exemptions can be made.  Just admit it, because of my medical condition, I am not able to follow this rehit. Why are you getting everyone else to drop to your level?
    • Wasn't Guru Arjan Dev's martyrdom on amd always commemorated on 6th June? How come it was 30th May?  Just like 6th June 84, where the likes of Terrorists like Indira Gandhi chose to attack Darbar Sahib where many many innocent Sikhs would suffer, as they went to commemorate Martyrdom of Maharaj.
