Do Not Smoke
Do Not smoke
Guru Gobind Singh sakhi
Guru Gobind Singh jee and his fauj were walking to anandpur. Guru jee was on his horse.
they suddenly halted infront of a field on the journey home and they all stopped a few moments later Guru ji took the fauj back
and told them they were to go another route home.
on the route one of the soliders ask guru ji " Guru ji why are we going the long
way when we could have just walked through the field that we halted at and we would have reached our destination".
Guru ji replied " that field was a tobacco field and it was not me that halted my horse did. it refused to walk through such an unclean place"
so if my horse is not willing to enter the place of tobacco then niether should my Sikhs enter or be surrounded by such pollution" every action
of our guru JEE was done for a reason. truly they were the bright light in this kalijug

'Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji:
ਮਾਣਸ ਭਰਿਆ ਆਣਿਆ ਮਾਣਸ ਭਰਿਆ ਆਇ ॥ ਜਿਤ ਪੀਤੈ ਮਤਿ ਦੂਰਿ ਹੋਇ ਬਰਲ ਪਵੈ ਵਿਚਿ ਆਇ ॥ ਆਪਣਾ ਪਰਾਇਆ ਨ ਪਛਾਣਈ ਖਸਮਹ ਧਕੇ ਖਾਇ ॥ ਜਿਤ ਪੀਤੈ ਖਸਮ ਵਿਸਰੈ ਦਰਗਹ ਮਿਲੈ ਸਜਾਇ ॥
"One person brings a full bottle, and another fills his cup. Drinking sharab, (alcohol), his intelligence departs, and madness enters his mind; he cannot distinguish between his own and others, and he is struck down by Waheguru, his Lord and Master. Drinking it, he forgets Waheguru, his Lord and Master, and he is punished in the Court of the Lord." (Ang 554, SGGS)
Guru Maharaj Had given us his Image, Roop to his Sikh also, in due course as our Guru was to do, we should ourselves.
"The Khalsa is my own form;
I manifest myself through the Khalsa.
So long as Khalsa remains distinct;
I bestow all glory on them."
