Gupt Singh Posted July 26, 2003 Report Share Posted July 26, 2003 "women should not have their hair loose but tie it in a topknot on top of their head" - bhai daya singh, i think the 1st of the panj pyare. of course women should look like khalsas. usually when i see a sikh girl (amritdhari) i cant even tell if she is sikh - sometimes she looks like a paki with a hajib thingy, other times a hindu. its always easy to see a keski wearing lady. if u tie it neatly they look kinda gangstah. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Javanmard Posted July 26, 2003 Report Share Posted July 26, 2003 Rahitnama says: Dastar for men, dupata for women. Knot on the head does not necesseraly imply dastar for women. Dastar for women was meant for hunting and war. :shock: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gupt Singh Posted July 26, 2003 Report Share Posted July 26, 2003 so why would it say in sau sakhi to keep a small (keski) and large dastaar on always? and why would other rahitnamas also say such things without mentioning anything about gender? have u got any rahitnamas to back it up because i am interested. Mod Note: lalleshvari, can you please provide refrence to back up your claims. Khalsa Soujla and rest of the sangat is waitin. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
narinder Posted July 30, 2003 Report Share Posted July 30, 2003 lalleshvari I find your views strange and very anti-gurmat. I do not want to predjudice you. so may I ask what you back ground is? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Javanmard Posted July 30, 2003 Report Share Posted July 30, 2003 what do you mean by anti-gurmat? If that means to study the languages of Sikhi and look at the sources in their original language instead of reading the idiot's guide to sikhi then yes I am! but if it means that I am not devoted to Maharaj then:no I am not anti-gurmat! :evil: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 30, 2003 Report Share Posted July 30, 2003 Gurfateh what do you mean by anti-gurmat? If that means to study the languages of Sikhi and look at the sources in their original language instead of reading the idiot's guide to sikhi then yes I am! but if it means that I am not devoted to Maharaj then:no I am not anti-gurmat! :evil: As you have informed us that you do not use an 'idiot's guide to Sikhi', which I didn't know existed, please quote relevant sources to back up your claim. This has been requested for the second time. Gurfateh Gurpreet 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Javanmard Posted July 30, 2003 Report Share Posted July 30, 2003 Please Gurpreet Kaur, don't try a Narsingha on me! It won't work! Sorry to dissapoint you. What I mean by Idiot's guide to Sikhi is all this literature written by pseudo scholars about sikhi like dentists writing books about sikhi claiming to be scholars without having the required knowledge 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 30, 2003 Report Share Posted July 30, 2003 Gurfateh Please Gurpreet Kaur, don't try a Narsingha on me! It won't work! Sorry to dissapoint you. What I mean by Idiot's guide to Sikhi is all this literature written by pseudo scholars about sikhi like dentists writing books about sikhi claiming to be scholars without having the required knowledge Firstly, I didn't request an explanation about the existence or meaning of the so called 'idiot's guide to Sikhi'. Secondly, I do not consider myself worthy of criticising scholars belonging to any profession. If you do, then that is up to you. Please Gurpreet Kaur, don't try a Narsingha on me! It won't work! Sorry to dissapoint you. You have not disappointed me because I wasn't trying to belittle you. I wouldn't know what 'trying a Narsingha is', and I hope it stays that way. I reiterate my first point, provide sources to back up your claims, as the other members have, otherwise I don't see how this discussion can proceed.

Guest Javanmard Posted July 30, 2003 Report Share Posted July 30, 2003 which claims are you talking about for god's sake. A scholar is a scholar not a dentist. You can be a scholarly dentist but not a scholar and a dentist at the same time. sorry but it takes years and years to be a scholar of Sikhi. Mod's Note: This claims you made thats what she is talkin about?? Rahitnama says: Dastar for men, dupata for women. Knot on the head does not necesseraly imply dastar for women. Dastar for women was meant for hunting and war. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
