Khima - Forgiving nature
Ahinsa - Non- violence
Daya - Compassionate
Mridh - Speaking sweetly, polite
Sat Bachan - Speaking the truth
Tap - Meditation, penance, seva
Daan- Giving nature
Seel - Calm and patient
Soch - Pure
Trisna Bina - Without any desire

These are the mentioned 10 qualities of those who have stepped into Dharam Khand (The realm of righteousness).

In JapJi Sahib, Guru Nanak Dev Ji tells us the five realms

Dharam Khand
Giaan Khand
Saram Khand
Karam Khand
Sachkhand

What is Dharam Khand?
When someone 'steps' into Dharam Khand, with the qualities stated above, the being gets an understanding that everything is working within God's system.
The seasons, the days and nights are all working within system.

Our senses are also with Dharam. Controlling these indriaan (Senses) is also our Dharam. We have to be conscious of what we see, hear, or say.

What is our Dharam? Are we walking on the Path of Dharam?

Karmee Karmee Hoey Veechaar, Sacha Aap Sacha Darbaar

To bring our senses within Dharam, is a difficult path. But one can only step into Giaan Khand, once our senses, our mind has accepted the Dharam and is working within Dharam.

For now, we have to be conscious of whether our senses are within Dharam. Be conscious of what effect it will bring, when we speak something false, when we see something bad, or hear slander of others.

We have to do ardaas to Guru Sahib to guide us and save us.

Vaheguruji Ka Khalsa, Vaheguruji Ki Fateh.

Tankhanama: Who is a Khalsa? Do's and Don'ts for a Sikh and consequences faced with these actions

TANKHANAMA BHAI NAND LAL JI - THE CODE OF DISCIPLINE BHAI NAND LAL JI Image 1: First part of Tankhanama Questions by Bhai Nand Lal Ji and Answers by Guru Gobind Singh Ji Note: Tankha = According to Mahan Kosh by Bhai Kahn Singh Nabha, Tankha means religious punishment given to a Sikh who has violated the rehat given by the Guru. Since Gurgaddi was passed to Guru Granth Sahib Ji, tankha is given by Panj Pyare in the presence of Guru Sahib, where a Sikh or an Amritdhari comes forward and admits his/her mistake done.
