Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh!
Many people stop chatting on MSN, and say that they are wasting precious time. But then again, they don't exactly do something any better with that time, though some do say it gives them time to do paath, simran, etc.
One thing that I believe is, that as a human, we are not born for the sole purpose of achieving eternal peace, or being One with Vaheguru. We have been provided with a World full of much, and as a human, we should use what we need. Leaving it all together doesn't make much sense. If that were the case, and that was how we could have Darshan, then why would Vaheguru put us on a world that contains other materialistic objects/surroundings?
I think that we should enjoy out time spent on Earth, and not lock up ourselves from the rest of the world. Enjoy, take what you want, give with all your heart, but do not become attached to it. Think of it as a home. You stay, do what you like, follow your Sikhi, but also balance it with the world around us, instead of completely shuning the world. But don't become attached to this home, as when Akal Purkh wills, you will have to leave everything, and be prepared to move out.
Bhul chuk mauf,
Vaheguru Ji Ka Khalsa Vaheguru Ji Ki Fateh!
