Dalpanth has seen it. It's no secret.

Opiates are probably the most addictive drug out there. They are no joke. If some of our ancestors took some in the past, I think they did it under specific protocols and that they were aware of the real serious dangers of the substance.

My nana employed a worker from Bihar who became addicted to afeem and helped him get off it. He said it wasn't a pretty sight. He had to lock him up in room for a while until he dried out. 

 

I know a few desi guys on building sites use it regularly too. It's potentially dangerous stuff.

In dal panth it is said that opium helps bihangam nihangs to keep jat da pehra (celibacy).

Opium has been part of jatt culture of punjab for a long time now.

Many of our ancestors took opium and worked like crazy in the fields and lived long lives. 

Navjot sidhu sometime back tried to make opium farming legal in punjab.

Dude, you're posting most of them. 

I hope you know that some silly apnay will use this as justification for recreational drug use brother. 

But we can't hide our historical granths

These granths are not Gurbani, bro.

You realize that, don't you? 

They're just written by humans. What do you think, they descended from heaven?

It would be nice if you found the original text for that. 

Macauliffe sort of slated Kavi Santokh SIngh because of his alleged use of bhang:

I wonder if its a good idea that we should believe drug induced poets when retelling our history. Santokh Singh has basically made our Guru and his followers into drug abusers.  Opium is probably one of the worst drugs for addiction and we are supposed to believe that our Dashmesh Pitha was a user. Some of the comments on here are hugely disturbing, the way people so eagerly believe if Nihangs do it then its ok ?  Have you spoken to Nihangs when intoxicated, they are so far removed from Sikhi its unbelievable. I think its about time we boycotted so called Granth's that are anathema to our Guru Granth Sahib.
