Leisure What Do The Five Thieves Steal?

[Scarlet Pimpernel]

what I can understand, truth, love, to have no enemies, to have no fear and to worship the Creator through service to Creation.

Veera Remember those five are your enemies ,now I suggest you do what you said and have no enemies or were you thinking of letting them remove you.

hahahah very good brother, but I do not consider them my enemies, they are part of me, I am not prepared to go on a mental battle with them when I could be using the time much more wisely.

Neither of us is going to win this one brother, I respect your views for you though, enjoy the battle, I hope you do not lose your head in the process......

Veera they are always described as not being good for you, even though they want to reside with you, you don't need them,for example what would a little greed be good for, so you could commit a small theft instead of an international fraud?
Quote Ambarsaria Ji,I am trying to understand if the following would classify as small or big "greed"
They say there is no end to the greed one can display, 'but left to my own devices I probably would...'

I have a house but opt to buy a bigger house beyond my needs because I won a lottery (I wish) versus giving
I would probably buy a 60 inch plasma display to put in the house.
A man has a wife, but the group allows him to have four. Is he lucky or greedy or neither and just immoral.
He is very lucky as the group could have allowed ten.
We can go through above four and then pose more as there is no end in sight. Greed will be defined by the perpetrator
Greed has been defined by the Guru as being a dog.
who may or may not recognize it as such or the moral police (Greed Detection Section).
G.D.S. in a Saint is like Interpol , G.D.S. in a sinner is like Punjabi police.

Veer may be we can define a bit what we (you) are trying to eliminate. Let us take the one you referred to above. Namely, the evil of greed.

I am trying to understand if the following would classify as small or big "greed" :motherlylove: whislingmunda,

• I keep eating when my stomach is full and don't leave enough for others to eat
• Local gas station is having a Gas/Petrol sale and there lines of motorists. The station is going to run out of Gas but I fill my tank full regardless and don't concern with others and I have no plans to drive the car immediately.
• I have a house but opt to buy a bigger house beyond my needs because I won a lottery (I wish) versus giving or using the lottery money for more needy.
• A man has a wife, but the group allows him to have four. Is he lucky or greedy or neither and just immoral.

We can go through above four and then pose more as there is no end in sight. Greed will be defined by the perpetrator who may or may not recognize it as such or the moral police (Greed Detection Section).

Sinner veer ji comment on the following,

Greed has been defined by the Guru.

Teaching on how to handle greed but not every example or description of greed. Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji is not a dictionary or a book of synonyms.


who may or may not recognize it as such or the moral police (Greed Detection Section).
G.D.S. in a Saint is like Interpol , G.D.S. in a sinner is like Punjabi police.

What does G.D.S. stand for!
Punjab (what is Punjabi police!) Police we all know and they do work with Interpol I assume.

Sat Sri Akal.

keep eating when my stomach is full and not leave enough for others to eat or fill my tank when I didn't need it This is greed gone beyond the balance that I consider healthy
