Sat Siri Akaal. Though the panj did not fully recite the Amrit, I don't believe that made the ceremony ineffective. What is far more important is that you believe in yourself and take your Amrit vows seriously. Blaming the panj for YOUR lack of discipline is just you refusing to take responsibility for your life and your vows. It seems to me the best course for you, personally, is to take Amrit again. Understand that I do not mean to say that the amrit ceremony was defective or that you should take it again because of the Anand Sahib thing. Only that you seem to need it to confirm it in yourself. (Also, let the panj know ahead of time you expect all banis to be fully recited.)
