When I was a child, in our front room we had a plaque which said "Vaheguru Satnaam" in rainbow colours - beside the plaque was a picture of a tower of man, tall, brave and strong. He held a huge blood stained sword in his hands and his eyes streamed conviction.

In contrast to the above, his face glowed with love and beauty - you could imagine his voice so soft and caring...

As child growing up (between the ages of about 4 and 10) I used to sit an stare at this picture for hours - any small problem and I would imagine this tower of bravery saving me from even the silliest of situations.

When I started Panjabi school, it was then I learnt that this man was in fact the great Baba Deep Singh Ji Shaheed, and many life times before, his bravery had in-fact saved me, and my family. And that the reason I was here today was due to the great Sacrifice this amazing man gave.

Baba Deep Singh Ji Shaheed is my role model.

WaheguruJi Ka Khalsa. WaheguruJi Ki Fateh.

Sikhi has waaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaay tooooooooooooooooooo maaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaaany role models, why are you making my life so difficult by asking me pick only one!!!! ohmy.gif lol. But that is indeed a wonderful question.

One, huh? I was going yo say 'Nanak' (that includes all our 10 Nanaks, and including Guru Granth Sahib Ji which is our final Nanak), but you ruled out the Guru because, like you said, it's obvious for every GurSikh to have his/her Guru as their role model.

Of all the names running through my mind at this time, it's got to be one whose image flashes before my eyes more than ever - Sant Baba Jarnail Singh Ji Bhindranwale. He was the image of the ideal Sant-Sipahi of the Guru who lived in our lifetime. He was amazing and a Bhindranwale in me feels like breaking free . . . Through him, I saw glimpses of my Guru like I would imagine . . .

SantJi inspired so many Sikhs to come back to Sikhi and at the same time did not take insult to our faith and Gurus. He spoke out what he had to and sided only with the Guru Khalsa Panth. He's certainly my role model.

WaheguruJi Ka Khalsa. Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh.

    • 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.
