Sikhs are instructed by Guru Sahib Ji to not indulge in smoking, sheesha, drugs and alcohol. Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaj calls tabacco “Jagat Jhooth (the falsehood of the world). With Guru Sahib’s Kirpa (grace), even Guru Ji’s horse refused to walk into the tobacco field. Instead of getting high on worldly poisons, Maharaj Ji emphasizes for us to get high on the Amrit of Naam and feel the real Anand (bliss). Our body is Harmandir (the temple of God), so we must respect it. We cannot pollute or harm it by consuming these worldly poisons. If we do indulge in these intoxicants, then finding Sadh Sangat (holy congregation) and learning about Naam (connection to the Divine) will be life-changing for us.
