Hair Dye

thanks for all your comments. I don't think I want to wear a keski to mask something that I am. Maybe I will just go white and see how things pan out, the underlying cause for it is medication and there isn't much I can do to come off that.

Looking for the yellow brick road....

According tp the Sikh Rehat Matyada; The code of Sikh Conduct and Conventions which is accepted by the Khalsa panth

One who dyes his beard is liable to chastisement involving automatic boycott;this follows for kesh

O so dhari dyin = no. n kes dyin = mayB?

nope:

dhari dying = NO

Kesh dying= NO

there is no difference between the two.

The reason for wearing a keski is not to mask what you are, its to follows Guru Sahibs rehit.

My point is that the choice to wear one shouldn't be made because you want to use it to hide. it should be because you want to follow rehit and Guru's way..... I don't think that religion should be used as an excuse but as a way of life.

Strange that the Rehet Maryada does not mention when hair are still  uncut  :

- No hair fixer

- No tying of beard

-No Hair weaving.

- No hair Gel

 The reason no-dying has been included has nowhere been mentioned. The Dying Hair is no disrespect.

One reason given is that one has to accept the natural state of the body. So why not accept any other disease that develops in the body. In fact white hair early is a sign of lack of melanin - a chemical in the body that keeps hair black.

Sikhi goes along with a householders duties and living. The Sikhi needs the Sikh to refrain from the five passions . Sikh is seva and simran. In the Rehetnama the " No smoking and No liquor " restrictions are easily understandable however the inclusion of "no hair Dying" looks incongruous .

In today's world  when vegetarianism is not encouraged it founds no mention thus the food habits are untouched except No Halal restriction . There is "no jhutha" advise also and understandable as it is undignified as a sikh. The  premature greying of hair is a recognized medical problem caused by many factors like stress, vitamin B12 deficiency, Hypothyroidism, unbalanced diet, . Premature graying  is depigmentation of hair and a  disease . 

So rehetmaryada needs to be re- looked in  so that social self esteem of the Sikh is maintained .

So you guys say that any effort to bring white hair to black is sin?

So if some herbal shampoo say that they can conver premature hai to black then we should not use them as its against sikhi?

In Ayurveda potato skin and other treatments etc can convert white hair to black. Is that also sin?

bhen ji you should see a doctor because it sounds like a shutdown of melanin production which could affect your skin too e.g. phulberi/vitiligo , it's better to eliminate disease processes from the questions . Homeopathy can help with premature whitening but you need to get a consultation to indivualise treatment.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
