But historical evidence is not a necessary part of a rehatnama. I said the information that goes against gurmat in rehatnamas cannot be trusted not that the whole rehatnama is invalid. My point is we must use our brains. I have nothing against rehatnamas only the parts where the information stated is against gurmat like the colour red being a bad colour.

So what about gurbani?Do you Belive that?

You do have a very valid point. This time I have to agree with you.

This is the first time you agree with me?I thought you agreeded with me in the past.That makes me sad :(

I have read this thread and to say that Sikhism is religion that was created at a time of moghul empire and it being a very ruthless empire, like many of the past. Even if you look at Buddhism that originated from India and now is the most practised religion in China, the Chinese people are no different to a Sikh, they were fortunate to get Buddha come into their region when Hindus rejected Buddhism in India. I agree with the original question the outside has no reflection of a good honest person, look at the politicians of Punjab, bearded uncut turban wearing Sikhs, faithful to their Gurus but not true to themselves, Sikhism or the people of Punjab. It is a matter of personal choice, Sikhism is open to all mankind and to embrace more, cut haired Sikhs should not feel any less closer to God than those that have not cut hair, God is with everyone, if you only believe and be honest life with no harm to planet, people, animals and nature.

For those who r giving different shabads from sri guru granth sahib ji... Do u remember the following lines:

Kabir preet ik sio kiye aan dubida jaye. Bhanvein lambe kes kar bhave gharrar mudaey.

This is also bani of sri guru granth sahib ji... I havent found anywhere that if i cut my hair... Den i m doing sumthing wrong... Yet i have kept my hair... Never ever tried to cut them... But always thinking about it... And i never found anywhere dat it is mendatory to keep hair... Nowhere it is writen... What i found is an order sayng " naam japo .. Wand shako... Te kirt kmai kro""" i think if we do this... Den our gurus will be lot more pleased... Than just keeping long hair nd pretending to be a sikh...

You are insulting all Sikhs who gave their head rather than their faith.

In 1984 Hindu government mobs did not celebrate taking wallets from Sikhs. They celebrated forcibly cutting Sikh hair.

Those mobs have better knowledge of the faith and history to which some of you lay claim.

‘Nowhere it is writen’ that you can’t put a tire around yourself and set it on fire. Let us know if you will contemplate that also.

Then on the same bases get ready for something mind blowing. All those women who dress half naked are not also wrong. Exposing there chest, other parts are right to do so in the same sense you present the above lines of Gurbani.

Ang 324 Bhagat Kabir ji says

kiaa naagae kiaa baadhhae chaam ||

What does it matter whether someone goes naked, or wears a deer skin,

jab nehee cheenas aatham raam ||1|| rehaao ||

if he does not remember the Lord within his soul? ||1||Pause||

Is anyone ready to present this to their sister, wife, or mother to justify her scantly clad way of dressing? Give this to the teenager struggling with her identity.

Gurbani is not here to justify wrong doings of cutting hair.

    • 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.
