So i have heard its Varth tomorow. I just wondered  if anybody celebrates it and if you dont, why not ? 

As a Sikh, I don’t celebrate it, as I see it as a ritual that has no outcome. There are some pangtis of what Guruji says about fasting in the link below:

I don't celebrate it but all the ladies in my family celebrate it. I don't believe in it because how will fasting protect your husband? Only by the recitation of Naam will he be protected and I just believe it to be a ritual. Guru Ji tells us that such rituals are pointless and not to be wasted time upon. However, this is my opinion and I am dearly sorry if I have offended anyone, that was not my intention.

Varth is a celebration when the wife has to fast for the longliveity and health of her husband. The point I am trying to make is why does the wife only have to fast for the husband why doesn't the husband fast for his wife? Sorry if I have offended anyone, that was not my intention.

It’s the ritual created by other culture/religion to control/degrade/slave the female gender. Our guru sahib jees teaching is far advance than this  ancient slavery controlling lifestyle. 

Sikhs do not believe in this as well as sandoor type culture. There are some of our brothers/sisters who follow these alien non-Sikh culture because they got assimilated into their culture by power of media (shows/films etc).

Varth as fasting, will only help to make our organism  work fine, as it works  24 hours 7 days, it needs a break also as all machines do need.

In hinduism or maybe in other religions also, it is done to please the gods, in addition to other forms of worship, from whom one may receive some type of rewards, that´s it, though all this is being stuck in maya, very much in the cycle of 84.

Purity, divinity, gyan, at its peak, is only in Wahiguru and His Saacha Nao, and it is only in His devotion Guru Sahiban, and Bhagat Jan, as per Bani, tell us to give our love and bhakti.

If ever, we have to fast to become better human beings, let us regularly fast on our weaknesses, which are malice, avarice, jealousy, hatred, falsehood, ego, anger, desires, anger....until we one day are able to totally erradictae them from our within.

It is not easy to achieve that state of purity, but nevertheless we should keep trying, and keep knocking at His door for His kirpa, His forgiveness, for all our huge gathered piles of filth(sins) within us since we left His darbar, and stepped into this mayavee creation.

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.
