Code of Conduct:

Code of conduct is a set of rules.
Definition of 'Code of Conduct'
as per Dictionary: A set of principles
and expectations that are considered
binding on any person who is a member
of a particular group.


In my understanding
Gurbani is Code of Conduct for
a Bhagat/Sikh/Devotee.


A certified Code for every Human
who becomes God's Devotee(God Oriented)
with His Grace.

This Code of Conduct can be used by anybody i
rrespective of color/cast/religion/language.


I am starting to collect Gurbani verses
those particularly lay stress on a
certain behaviour and help us shape
our conduct as a true servant
of God-Gurmukh.


Humilty is needed to be practiced. Unconditional Love needs to be cultivated.

First guru Ji tells the way to find the Truth- The True One is ALL HIMSELF. He is All-All is He Himself.

ਸਾਚਾ ਸਾਹਿਬੁ ਸਾਚੁ ਨਾਇ ਭਾਖਿਆ ਭਾਉ ਅਪਾਰੁ ॥

True is the Master, True is His Name-speak it with infinite love.​


ਆਖਹਿ ਮੰਗਹਿ ਦੇਹਿ ਦੇਹਿ ਦਾਤਿ ਕਰੇ ਦਾਤਾਰੁ ॥
aakhehi mangehi dhaehi dhaehi dhaath karae dhaathaar ||
People beg and pray, ""Give to us, give to us"", and the Great Giver gives His Gifts.​


ਫੇਰਿ ਕਿ ਅਗੈ ਰਖੀਐ ਜਿਤੁ ਦਿਸੈ ਦਰਬਾਰੁ ॥
faer k agai rakheeai jith dhisai dharabaar ||
So what offering can we place before Him, by which we might see the Darbaar of His Court?​


ਮੁਹੌ ਕਿ ਬੋਲਣੁ ਬੋਲੀਐ ਜਿਤੁ ਸੁਣਿ ਧਰੇ ਪਿਆਰੁ ॥
muha k bolan boleeai jith sun dhharae piaar ||
What words can we speak to evoke His Love?​


ਅੰਮ੍ਰਿਤ ਵੇਲਾ ਸਚੁ ਨਾਉ ਵਡਿਆਈ ਵੀਚਾਰੁ ॥
anmrith vaelaa sach naao vaddiaaee veechaar ||
In the Amrit Vaylaa, the ambrosial hours before dawn, chant the True Name, and contemplate His Glorious Greatness.​


ਕਰਮੀ ਆਵੈ ਕਪੜਾ ਨਦਰੀ ਮੋਖੁ ਦੁਆਰੁ ॥
karamee aavai kaparraa nadharee mokh dhuaar ||
By the karma of past actions, the robe of this physical body is obtained. By His Grace, the Gate of Liberation is found.​


ਨਾਨਕ ਏਵੈ ਜਾਣੀਐ ਸਭੁ ਆਪੇ ਸਚਿਆਰੁ ॥੪॥
naanak eaevai jaaneeai sabh aapae sachiaar ||4||
O Nanak, know this well: the True One Himself is All. ||4||​

ਗਾਵੀਐ ਸੁਣੀਐ ਮਨਿ ਰਖੀਐ ਭਾਉ ॥

Sing, and listen, and let your mind be filled with love.​

Gurbani har alakh lakhiayaa

Then Guru Ji teaches us about How to do His Praise, How the praise become worthy of anything. Discipline is must but it has to be performed with unconditional love and humility.

ਤੀਰਥੁ ਤਪੁ ਦਇਆ ਦਤੁ ਦਾਨੁ ॥
theerathh thap dhaeiaa dhath dhaan ||
Pilgrimages, austere discipline, compassion and charity


ਜੇ ਕੋ ਪਾਵੈ ਤਿਲ ਕਾ ਮਾਨੁ ॥

Listening and believing with love and humility in your mind,


ਅੰਤਰਗਤਿ ਤੀਰਥਿ ਮਲਿ ਨਾਉ ॥

cleanse yourself with the Name, at the sacred shrine deep within.


ਸਭਿ ਗੁਣ ਤੇਰੇ ਮੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਕੋਇ ॥

Without virtue, there is no devotional worship.

He is Beautiful, True and Eternally Joyful.

Gurbani eis jag meh chaanan

Even while cultivating a virtue, we have to keep a check on our mind. Mind must not start believing in 'I am doing' - No. We need to practice the fact: All Virtues are His and His alone- I, me, is nothing.

We need to do Vichaar on both:

1.Without Virtue -no devotional worship is possible
2.All virtues are His alone, none is mine/our.

Cyber Sangat Ji,

ਤਉ ਗੁਣ ਪਛਾਣਹਿ ਤਾ ਪ੍ਰਭੁ ਜਾਣਹਿ ਗੁਣਹ ਵਸਿ ਅਵਗਣ ਨਸੈ ॥

If you recognize His Glorious Virtues, then you shall come to know God; thus virtue shall dwell in you, and sin shall run away.
