      ਵੀਰ ਜੀ,
      ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੀ ਕਾ ਖ਼ਾਲਸਾ, ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੀ ਕੀ ਫ਼ਤਿਹ।।
      ਤੁਹਾਡੇ ਸਵਾਲ ਦੇ ਜਵਾਬ ਵਿਚ ਗੁਰੂ ਗ੍ਰੰਥ ਸਾਹਿਬ ਵਿਚੋਂ ਸਿਰਫ਼ ਇੱਕ ਉਦਾਹਰਣ ਦੇ ਰਿਹਾ ਹਾਂ। ਹੋਰ ਵੀ ਹਨ। ਉਮੀਦ ਕਰਦਾ ਹਾਂ ਕਿ ਤੁਹਾਨੂੰ ਆਪਣੇ ਸਵਾਲ ਦਾ ਜਵਾਬ ਮਿਲ ਜਾਵੇਗਾ। ਜ਼ਿੰਦਗੀ ਦਾ ਅਸਲ ਨਿਸ਼ਾਨਾ ਤਾਂ ਗੁਰਸ਼ਬਦ ਦੀ ਰੋਸ਼ਨੀ ਵਿਚ ਆਪਣਾ ਜੀਵਨ ਢਾਲਣ ਦਾ ਹੈ ਤੇ ਆਪਣੇ ਔਗੁਣ ਛੱਡ ਕੇ, ਜੀਵਨ ਸੰਵਾਰ ਕੇ, ਜੀਵਨ ਮੁਕਤ ਹੋਣ ਦਾ ਹੈ ਕਿਉਂਕਿ ਸਿੱਖੀ ਵਿਚ ਮਰ ਕੇ ਮੁਕਤ ਹੋਣ ਦੀ ਕੋਈ ਕਹਾਣੀ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੈ।
      ————————
      ਘਰ ਕੀ ਨਾਰਿ ਤਿਆਗੈ ਅੰਧਾ ॥ ਪਰ ਨਾਰੀ ਸਿਉ ਘਾਲੈ ਧੰਧਾ ॥ ਜੈਸੇ ਸਿੰਬਲੁ ਦੇਖਿ ਸੂਆ ਬਿਗਸਾਨਾ ॥ ਅੰਤ ਕੀ ਬਾਰ ਮੂਆ ਲਪਟਾਨਾ ॥੧॥ ਪਾਪੀ ਕਾ ਘਰੁ ਅਗਨੇ ਮਾਹਿ ॥ ਜਲਤ ਰਹੈ ਮਿਟਵੈ ਕਬ ਨਾਹਿ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ (ਪੰਨਾ 1164-65)

      ਅਰਥ: ਵਿਕਾਰੀ ਬੰਦੇ ਦਾ ਟਿਕਾਣਾ ਸਦਾ ਉਸ ਅੱਗ ਵਿਚ ਰਹਿੰਦਾ ਹੈ ਜੋ ਅੱਗ ਸਦਾ ਬਲਦੀ ਰਹਿੰਦੀ ਹੈ, ਕਦੇ ਬੁੱਝਦੀ ਨਹੀਂ।1। ਰਹਾਉ।
      ਅੰਨ੍ਹਾ (ਪਾਪੀ) ਆਪਣੀ ਵਹੁਟੀ ਛੱਡ ਦੇਂਦਾ ਹੈ, ਤੇ ਪਰਾਈ ਜ਼ਨਾਨੀ ਨਾਲ ਝਖਾਂ ਮਾਰਦਾ ਹੈ, (ਪਰਾਈ ਨਾਰ ਨੂੰ ਵੇਖ ਕੇ ਉਹ ਇਉਂ ਹੀ ਖ਼ੁਸ਼ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ) ਜਿਵੇਂ ਤੋਤਾ ਸਿੰਬਲ ਰੁੱਖ ਨੂੰ ਵੇਖ ਕੇ ਖ਼ੁਸ਼ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ (ਪਰ ਉਸ ਸਿੰਬਲ ਤੋਂ ਉਸ ਤੋਤੇ ਨੂੰ ਹਾਸਲ ਕੁਝ ਨਹੀਂ ਹੁੰਦਾ) ; ਆਖ਼ਰ ਨੂੰ ਅਜਿਹਾ ਵਿਕਾਰੀ ਮਨੁੱਖ (ਇਸ ਵਿਕਾਰ) ਵਿਚ ਗ੍ਰਸਿਆ ਹੋਇਆ ਹੀ ਮਰ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ।1।

      Only one wife. Rest all as sister or daughter
      ਏਕਾ ਨਾਰੀ ਜਤੀ ਹੋਇ ਪਰ ਨਾਰੀ ਧੀ ਭੈਣ ਵਖਾਣੈ। Bhai Gurdaas Ji in No Raag – 6
      ਪਹਿਲਾ ਵਸਤੁ ਸਿਞਾਣਿ ਕੈ ਤਾਂ ਕੀਚੈ ਵਾਪਾਰੁ ॥ (1410)
      Gurbani teaches us that we must identify and analyse in detail before taking any action or step in our life.
      Once both husband and wife are one with Akal Purkh with the help of Gurbani. They will have same opinion with the help of Gurbani. Then they will be able to develop a successful family system.
      ਏਕ ਜੋਤਿ ਦੁਇ ਮੂਰਤੀ ਧਨ ਪਿਰੁ ਕਹੀਐ ਸੋਇ ॥੩॥ – 788
      Gurbani teaches us that we must identify and analyse in detail before taking any action or step in our life.
      Firstly one must himself know about Gurbani written in Guru Granth Sahib. This will help you to know about the realities of life.
      Sikhism is not religion to carry out some formalities. But a way of life to become Sachyaar by understanding and following the Hukam of Akal Purkh. So you must study, understand and analyse Gurbani written in Guru Granth Sahib.
      This will help you to develop your will power and ability to take next step in your life.

      Please go through the following articles in Gurmukhi related to our daily life.
