Sat Siri Akaal. I'm not going to tell you how much paath to do. I will tell you that Sikh spirituality is developed through practice of bani and simran. You have to take the approach that these things come FIRST in your life. So act like an adult and put it first. For most that means first thing after waking up, but if not, then set aside a time every day to do it. Don't wait for your folks. Don't do the internet first. "Every day at XXX time, I will sit and do paath in a devotional, meditative fashion." Make it the time between you and your Guru. If you have a Babaji's room, do it there. Once you 'fit' it in and make it such a habit that your day is weird without it, you won't have this problem. This problem, is, BTW, the challenge of all Gursikhs. Sehej is not just balance IN THE MIND. It is about life balance, of the daily affairs of a householder in balance with daily practice of spirituality. Guru ang sang,
