Lobh – Greed 2 Mighty Khalsa
The human being is afflicted with various desires, expectations, and cravings in his mind. Out of these Sikhi for Toddlers

more than what one needs or deserves, especially with respect to material wealth. Generally, it is con-
sidered as an excessive or rapacious desire and pursuit of money, wealth or power. The most common 3 New Sikhi Classes
explanation is that the greedy person values money or possessions more than anything else.
4 Parkash Divas of Sri
Guru Granth Sahib Ji
Describing greed and its effect on human beings, Sri Guru Granth Sahib describes:

Hankaar – Pride (Ego)
Hankaar (Pride, Ego), the fifth vice, is considered the original and most serious of all vices, and indeed the ulti-
mate source from which the others arise. It is identified as a desire to be more important or attractive than oth-
ers, failing to acknowledge the good work of others, or excessive love of oneself. In Sri Guru Granth Sahib,
Hankaar (Pride, Ego) is described as, ‘the corrupter of the soul and the root cause of suffering. It spreads out
such illusions that people forsake friends, and befriend enemies. 10
All vices are actually mental disorders and harmful for the man. But, „egotism is the worst disease in this world’.
11

The one who is afflicted with this terrible ailment suffers throughout life. Therefore, ‘he is brave and a true war-
rior, who subdues his vicious ego from within. 12
Gifts for Seniors
‘He is pure, who conquers his egotism and removes his vices. Such a person liberates him-
self, and all his genera- tions as well. 13
Finally, we arrive at the conclusion that „the vices, cruelty, attachment, greed and anger are like rivers of
14
fire. Those who fall into them burn themselves and suffer; one is only saved by holding tight to good deeds.
In the coming article, we will discuss „How to control these vices‟?
