Hi There

I plan to take amrit soon I just have a few questions that I can't find answers properly...

Can we wear elastic kachera instead of naala?

Can we touch meat product and cook meat for others? (Not consuming it myself)

Do we need to do our nitnem before eating/drinking in the morning?

If we sleep late due to work & maybe even night shifts can amritvela be just the time we wake up?

Can amritdhari wear scents (cologne/perfume) and wedding rings, bracelets, watches?

Bhul Chuk maaf, don't mean to offend anyone :) Just need to clarify things before taking amrit

WaheguruJiKaKhalsa!!WaheguruJiKiFateh!!

1) not sure , but as per Damdami taksal , it has to be with naala

2) yes you can touch meat product. we have wounds some times so shouldnt we treat them?

3) yes , in morning jap/japji sahib before eating drinking , in evening rehras sahib before eating

4) yes , however amritvela starts after 12 am in morning , if somehow you can do that its good

5) not sure on this one

1. Don't know but it is better to wear one with naala . I think kachera with elastic will be same as regular underpants

2. You can touch meat but cooking for someone unless it is part of your job... You should avoid it because then you will be contradicting your beliefs... Sikhi is not about rules but living these rules. So saying I don't eat meat coz it is cruelty and then preparing meat for others is a strong contradiction

3. Depends on your health. If you can't pray without eating but it is preferred to do nitnem first

4.you can wear scents, perfumes and watch but no rings or jewelry...

Yes to all.

But note that for amrit vela it can be after you wake up and before you eat, so basically you get up, shower, wash and clean your teeth etc..and then try and do nitnem before you start anything else.

If doing night shifts or graveyard shifts, then you have to adapt and change your body clock in line with your living and sleeping conditons so obviously 2am to 6 am amrit vela won't happen because you will be at work!!

And some cologne/after shave is fine but there won't be any need for rings or bracelets. I'm not sure why you would be tempted to wear such jewelry unless it is a simple sarbloh ring or something with ek onkaar on - like the one's you get from hazoor sahib (I have worn one of these only for many years)

Btw your not allowed to wear elastic kashera, wear naala

How about some very older Sikh babas that have severe rheumatoid arthritis and dexterity problems with trying to tie a nala ???

Well, of course they use an elasticated one, you should try and go do some seva of the old bhujhurghs and see how difficult some things are and how they compensate !

Vaheguru, yes you are right, older sikha don't have to wear naala , due to their problems, but the smaller younger sikhs should wear naala, they don't have any problems with their Sareer do they ?Or are they just lazy ? And can't be bothered wearing naala and taking it of like pants, forgetting its part us

    • 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.
