Sukhmani Sahib In House

Hi

I am hoping to hold a Sukhmani Sahib paath at our new house soon to receive Guru Ji's blessings. I have never done this before and so have a few etiquette-related queries. I would be grateful if anyone has the answers or could point me in the right direction.

How is the SGGS Ji brought to and taken from the house? Does someone from the house need to carry the SGGS Ji or will the Granthi Ji do this?

What rules are they regarding having Guru Ji in the house? I assume there should be no alcohol/meat/eggs in the house and that the house should be clean.

As for the langar and Karah prashad, should this be cooked in the house or in the Gurdwara and then brought over to the house?

Many thanks in advance

Vaheguru Ji Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh!

Guru Ji should be accompanied by 5 Singhs to and from the Gurdwara.

House should be clean. Place for Guru Sahib should be neat and clean. The Granthi Singh should take care of how the place is to be prepared.

No meat or eggs or alcohol. I would say even after Guru Sahib leaves the house.

I've heard stories of how people have Sukhmani Sahib in the house and after Guru Sahib leaves they let kaljug enter the house through all this nonsense. Then they wonder why so much kalesh even after Akhand Paaths.

Karah Parshad can be prepared by Granthi Singh if he is tyar bar tyar. Either at Gurdwara or home.

If the Granthi Singh is doing paath and you can't hear or understand anything then tell him to slow down and take his time.

Props for having the paath!

Thank you Penji for your advice and the video links. I will ask the Gurdwara as you suggested. I just want to make sure Ii know exactly what is required so that we do not unknowingly disrespect our Guru in any way

Offering of eat ables to Guru Granth Sahib is against Gurmat. So please do not do it and ignore Brahaminical advice and practices.

Sorry paji, meri mat thori a. Could u explain to me why they do it in some gurdwaras as I don't know? I thought is was normal, maf karo je galat likea hove I will delete that bit.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
