Guest Posted September 13, 2003 Report Share Posted September 13, 2003 mr singh.. seva SHOULD be selfless anyway.. so ur not doing it to get any "gun".. whether u get anything out of it or not u do it to benefit others ideal.. i never knew u could do eye transplant :? u sure ur not on about CORNEAL transplant?... id rather transplant something which is more needed rather then eyes.. such as kidneys, heart, lung, liver.. we dont need those parts when we die anyway :twisted: 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

HeyDudesWassup Posted September 15, 2003 Report Share Posted September 15, 2003 This might be a dumb question but let's say the average age we die is 75, who would want your old kidneys, eyes and what not? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

jsb Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 This might be a dumb question but let's say the average age we die is 75, who would want your old kidneys, eyes and what not? this is kinda like asking what poor child wouldn't want your leftover sabji from last night... no one's gonna be picky when they're in desperate need... especially in western culture. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Oh yaa guyz you are right... for very intelligent persons I mean people like yourself every question is a dumb question coz you know everything but there are otherz who would like to know much on this issue... Here is a research on about the AGE Limit at which we can donate our body organz:: It is just that We should be bold enough to be ready to donate... Organ Donation Criteria: Acceptable · Brain death only · Effective cardiovascular function · Approximate age range 0 - 85 years Not Acceptable · Evidence of transmissible disease · Evidence of extra cranial malignancy Tissue Donation Criteria: Acceptable · Cardiac or brain death only · Age limits . Bone/Skin: 12 -85 for female, 12 - no upper age for male · Connective tissue: 12 - 45 for male and female · Heart valve: 37 pounds - 55 years for male and female · Femoral Vein: 15 - 29 for female, 15-49 for male .Saphenous Vein: 15 - 29 for female, 15-65 for male Not Acceptable · HIV/AIDS · Hepatitis Eye Donation Criteria Acceptable · Cardiac or brain death only · Age limit of 73 years Not Acceptable · Active hepatitis · Active encephalitis · HIV/AIDS · Creutzfeldt-Jacob disease · Rabies By donating your organs and tissue you can help 50 people regain life. Your heart and lungs can help one breathe again; your kidneys can free two people from having to undergo dialysis. Donating your liver can save the life of someone who's been on a waiting list, your corneas can allow two people to see again. Your bones and skin can repair damaged joints and heal those who have been burned severely 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted September 16, 2003 Report Share Posted September 16, 2003 most sikhs should be healthy considering they dont drink n smoke.. and if they kept fit by training their bodies would be much more suitable as donor subjects 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
harvindersingh Posted September 22, 2003 Report Share Posted September 22, 2003 from what i understand of sikh beliefs, the corpse has no importance, although we cremate traditionally, this is just one possible clean way of disposing of a body. thus i think there would not be any objection to our organs being donated. common sense should encourage this practise. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mugermach Singh Posted September 22, 2003 Report Share Posted September 22, 2003 it would be cool to donate memories. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sardu Posted September 29, 2003 Report Share Posted September 29, 2003 I don't know what religion says about this. but this is a nobel cause and I whole heartdly back this up, admire this. I would defintely donate my organs. Since donation of organs was not possible in olden days.. that may be the reason that religion doesn't specify anything... otherwise .. i strongly believe that Sikhism would be the no 1 religion to support this. Sikhs are known for their sacrifices.... It is a tradition... I will Keep it up... it would be cool to donate memories. Classic.. I am ur Fan mate. You are simply excellent. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

harjbhela Posted October 12, 2003 Report Share Posted October 12, 2003 The soul leaves the body at the moment of death. We should concern ourselves much more with the journey the soul will take rather than what happens to the body which is discarded as an old garment of clothing. Do not concern yourselves with superstitions regarding the rituals following death - most have only been put into place to offer some comfort for the greiving families. Remember, the body of GuruArjun Dev Ji was not cremated - anyone here saying his soul would have been affected? Donating organs to help others is a seva and I feel everyone should do it 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
