ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੀ ਕਾ ਖ਼ਾਲਸਾ ਵਾਹਿਗੁਰੂ ਜੀ ਕੀ ਫਤੇ

I've been invited to a naamdhari wedding of someone I work with.

It is going to be at 5am in the morning starting with Asa Di Vaar before the Ananj Karaj.

Would it be wrong if I went?

In my opinion I'm going to go for the Keertan.

Sangats input will be much appriciated

Please let us not be so narrow minded.

We live in a world, of different cultures, different religions, different races with whom we do have interacation at some time or other, as we are social beings.

Other thing is, if one is obliged to do something which is wrong, like, to smoke, drink alcohol, or other bad actions... This is what one should see and avoid...

But to attend a friend´s feast, or wedding, or birth of a child ... I think it is a good idea.

As long as one knows, where one stands, then it is fine....

So brother, go and enjoy, and make him happy, just from a human point of view... I myself have christian friends, or muslim also, and we talk normally, and there was a time, when quite a few years back, I had customers of almost every corner of the world, and I learnt a lot from them, nothing wrong in it.

Of course, good and bad people we have it everywhere ...the goodness or the evil is not in the bodies, but in the minds, and it is there we have to take care of ourselves, as long we have our beloved Wahiguru in our hearts or minds through His Simran, then not even the devil dares to come near...

Sat Sree Akal.

    • 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.
