[QUOTE="vsgrewal48895, post: 97291, member: 8024"] Dear All. Going off the track and spinning the question does not help. % k's may be the first step in detering the lower spirit but does not help in spirituality in developing virtues, which are developed by individual effort and deeds. 5 K's per se has no spiritual value except being political and a sourse of Identity. I am a student of Spirituality and not of materialism. These are a show of external piety and are left behind just like the holy thread of the Brahmin falls and burnt after death. It is by self dcipline that one progresses further. [B]Sanjam-([/B]ਸੰਜਮੁ/ ਸੰਜਮ) meaning ਵਿਕਾਰਾਂ ਵਲੋਂ ਪਰਹੇਜ਼, ਮਨ ਨੂੰ ਵਿਕਾਰਾਂ ਵਲੋਂ ਰੋਕਣ ਦਾ ਉਪਰਾਲਾ/ਵਿਧੀ/ ਆਹਰ/ਰਹਿਤ/ਪ੍ਰਹੇਜ਼, ਇੰਦ੍ਰੀਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਵੱਸ ਕਰਨ ਦੇ ਸਾਧਨ/ਜਤਨ/ਤਪੱਸਿਆ, ਇੰਦਰਿਆਂ ਨੂੰ ਵਿਕਾਰਾਂ ਵਲੋਂ ਰੋਕਣ ਦੇ ਯਤਨ, ਮਨ ਨੂੰ ਵਿਕਾਰਾਂ ਵਲੋਂ ਰੋਕਣ ਦੇ ਜਤਨ। (ਟਿਕੇ ਰਹਿਣ ਦੀ) ਜੁਗਤਿ, ਧਾਰਮਿਕ ਪ੍ਰਣ/ਉਪਰਾਲਾ/ਵਿਧੀ/ ਆਹਰ/ਰਹਿਤ/ਪ੍ਰਹੇਜ਼, ਰਹਿਤ-ਰਹਿਣੀ, ਬੰਦਸ਼, ਪਾਬੰਦੀ, ਪਰਹੇਜ਼ -Brevity, restraint, discipline, soberness, forbearance, abstinence, austerity. This word comes many times in AGGS in one form or the other advising self discipline in all forms and Guru Arjan in Raag Bilawal refers to it as question and answer; Q. ਕਿਤੁ ਬਿਧੀਐ ਕਿਤੁ ਸੰਜਮਿ ਪਾਈਐ ॥ਕਹੁ ਸੁਰਜਨ ਕਿਤੁ ਜੁਗਤੀ ਧਿਆਈਐ ॥ [I]Kiṯ biḏẖīai kiṯ sanjam pāīai. Kaho surjan kiṯ jugṯī ḏẖiāīai.[/I] In what way, and by what discipline, is God obtained? Tell me, O good man, by what means can we meditate on Akal Purkh? A.ਜੋ ਮਾਨੁਖੁ ਮਾਨੁਖ ਕੀ ਸੇਵਾ ਓਹੁ ਤਿਸ ਕੀ ਲਈ ਲਈ ਫੁਨਿ ਜਾਈਐ ॥ਨਾਨਕ ਸਰਨਿ ਸਰਣਿ ਸੁਖ ਸਾਗਰ ਮੋਹਿ ਟੇਕ ਤੇਰੋ ਇਕ ਨਾਈਐ ॥ [I]Jo mānukẖ mānukẖ kī sėvā oh ṯis kī laī laī fun jāīai. Nānak saran saraṇ sukẖ sāgar mohi tėk ṯėro ik nāīai.[/I] If one human being serves another human being, the one served stands by him.

Sāḏẖsang ih haumai cẖẖorai.[/I] If you long for honor for yourself, then renounce your ego in the Saadh Sangat, the Company of the Holy. ਆਪਸ ਕਉ ਜੋ ਜਾਣੈ ਨੀਚਾ ॥ਸੋਊ ਗਨੀਐ ਸਭ ਤੇ ਊਚਾ ॥ [I]Āpas kao jo jāṇai nīcẖā.
