33.) Sikhs praising their own service.

This is a message to the sikhs who are being total idiots. Doing langar, seva, protection then praising yourself all over the internet or real life is anti-gurmat. Page 1428- ਤੀਰਥ ਬਰਤ ਅਰੁ ਦਾਨ ਕਰਿ ਮਨ ਮੈ ਧਰੈ ਗੁਮਾਨੁ ॥ ਨਾਨਕ ਨਿਹਫਲ ਜਾਤ ਤਿਹ ਜਿਉ ਕੁੰਚਰ ਇਸਨਾਨੁ ॥੪੬॥ Those who make pilgrimages to sacred shrines, observe ritualistic fasts and make donations to charity while still taking pride in their minds, O Nanak, their actions are useless, like the elephant who takes a bath and then rolls in the dust. ||46||
