Can You Wear A Full Wedding Outfit If You've Taken Amrit?

In true gurmat practice- No colours matter

- No hiding the face completely like the old chund

-No piercings

- No excessive make up like bright red bindis, bright lipstick and henna.

Although, i'm sure that there is nothing wrong with using feminine beauty clarifying products like cleansers, exfollients, clear complexion creams...etc..

-I don't think a lehnga is any problem

- I have seen chura or vanga being worn, although they only have a few.

Maybe I wouldn't wear to many on the arm your kara is on or say that they hide and mask the kara.

I'm sure that as long as your kara can be clearly seen it's OK for a few churhas, after all a feminine look is still feminine and Guru Nanak ji talked more about equality rather than dampening feminine looks !

In terms of outfit or what you wear, I completely agree with Raj Karega khalsa ji above that there is no hard fast rule, and you can wear whatever you feel appropriate as long as it is not extra loud.

So you don't agree with Bhai Daya Singh ji's Rehat?

The Khalsa life style is split into all three nature -diet/life style in accordance to Giani Gian Singh and Bhai Daya Singh. Please read the rehitnama of bhai dya singh ji in its totality -where he talks about sato, rajo, tamo life style/dietary.

Bhai dya singh ji rehitnama put an end to all the controversies including never ending meat debate started close to 100 years, rehitnama talks about khalsa can subscribe to any three gunas diet/life style or mix the lifestyle as it suitation warrants- sato(sant), rajo(house holder-gristhi), tamo (nihangs in jung suitation) based on their life style.

May be Prabhjot Singh veer can help us with direct quote from bhai dya singh ji rahitnama.. I read it long time ago on hard copy.

Waheguru Jeo,

Here is Bhai Daya Singh Ji's Rehitnama jeo:

I think we'll have to read the whole Rehitnama to understand it fully but the last 3 pages are perhaps more relevant to current discussion, the last page has rehit for bihangham singhs..

Mahankosh:

ਸੰ. कुसुम्भ ਕੁਸੁੰਭ. {ਸੰਗ੍ਯਾ}. ਅਗਨਿ- ਸ਼ਿਖ. ਅੱਗ ਦੀ ਸ਼ਿਖਾ ਜੇਹਾ ਜਿਸ ਦਾ ਫੁੱਲ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ, ਐਸਾ ਇੱਕ ਬੂਟਾ, ਅਤੇ ਇਸ ਦੇ ਫੁੱਲ ਦੀਆਂ ਕੇਸਰ ਜੇਹੀਆਂ ਤਰੀਆਂ. ਇਸ ਦਾ ਲਾਲ ਰੰਗ ਬਹੁਤ ਭੜਕੀਲਾ ਹੁੰਦਾ ਹੈ, ਪਰ ਧੁੱਪ ਅਤੇ ਜਲ ਨਾਲ ਤੁਰਤ ਫਿੱਕਾ ਪੈ ਜਾਂਦਾ ਹੈ. ਗੁਰਬਾਣੀ ਵਿੱਚ ਮਾਇਕ ਪਦਾਰਥਾਂ ਦੇ ਚਮਤਕਾਰ ਕੁਸੁੰਭਰੰਗ ਜੇਹੇ ਵਰਣਨ ਕੀਤੇ ਹਨ. "ਕੂੜਾ ਰੰਗ ਕਸੁੰਭ ਕਾ". (ਸ੍ਰੀ ਮਃ ੩) "ਹਥੁ ਨ ਲਾਇ ਕਸੁੰਭੜੈ ਜਲਿ ਜਾਸੀ ਢੋਲਾ". (ਸੂਹੀ ਫਰੀਦ) ਦੇਖੋ, ਜਲਿ। (2) ਕੁਸੁੰਭੇ ਦੀ ਤਰਾਂ ਟਪਕਾਇਆ ਅਤੇ ਕੁਸੁੰਭੇ ਜੇਹੇ ਰੰਗ ਦਾ ਅਫ਼ੀਮ ਦਾ ਰਸ, ਜੋ ਰਾਜਪੂਤਾਨੇ ਵਿੱਚ ਬਹੁਤ ਕਰਕੇ ਵਰਤੀਦਾ ਹੈ. "ਪਾਨ ਡਰਾਇ ਕਸੁੰਭੜੇ ਰੂਰੋ". (ਚਰਿਤ੍ਰ ੧੧੧) ਅਫੀਮ ਦੇ ਰਸ ਵਿੱਚ ਸ਼ਰਾਬ ਮਿਲਾਕੇ.

Thanks for posting that prabhjot singh ji, really appreciate..will go over it shortly.

In the meantime, prem Sumarag granth one of most puratan granths, has full chapter of sikh marriage for grishti householder sikhs- some of things does not make sense when we look at it from today's perspective but some of things are very detailed and make sense. I urge every one to read it - take whatever you can from it.

Marriage starts from page- 20

Which bit's don't agree ?

I'm not sure about how far you take this makeup business.??

You state in true gurmat.....................which makes it that Bhai Daya Singh ji is not expressing true Gurmat with the rehat.

I have no opinion on this issue, but you do when you stated true gurmat...........................Opinions would only hold value if they made sense with Gurmat and we did not have an authority, like the Punj Pyare clearing this question the OP has asked. However we do have an authority clearing the issue, which means there is only three things left to do for a Sikh as Gurbani states. Accept it as the truth (the rehat is coming from Bhai Daya Singh ji) be content with it, that it is the truth, and then contemplate in the mind that i am low and rehat is high, one day by contemplating on Gurbani I hope Satguru blesses me with how and why this rehat is the truth.

Just gave the chapter on marriage a brief perusal. Do modern-day Sikhs (the rehatvaan types of course) still follow those ways in their entirety, i.e. presenting the Singhni to be married with shashtars? Also do chardikala Sikh families stick to the time-frames specified in the granth?

    • 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.
