Beast Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 iv seen ome of the threads and its sick ppl calll themselves a sikh wen they dnt follow they religion So all those so-called "Sikhs" before Guru Gobind Singh Ji have no right to claim that they are Sikhs? You don't need to be an amrit-dharee to be a Sikh. my msg is can a hair - cut singh claims he is a sikh? in my view NO i wear a pagh and everyday i tigh it i kiss the lar. keep a full dhari! proud of my sikhi korm!

Morpheous Posted May 18, 2004 Report Share Posted May 18, 2004 Does a Sikh need to keep hair ? I think you should really ask yourself; Do you need your hair to learn about spirituality ? Secondly, Jaidev(A bhagat to whose Bani you bow to) had a bhodi. Gurfateh Harpreet PS. before the flood of criticism, im not stating that hair is unimportant. Please read comments carefully. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sikh_fauge Posted May 19, 2004 Report Share Posted May 19, 2004 There is a clear distinction between a gurus sikh/a disciple and a khalsa. Just because followers of the gurus were not amrit dhari before the khalsa was formed, doesnt mean they werent sikhs. You CAN be sikh and not have the panj kakkar, most definitely, but the only thing i would suggest (which doesnt mean squat but this is my opinion) is that u should keep ur dhari and take charan de pahul, to declare ur love for ur guru (and look distinct and manly) without having to become khalsa. Having bits of protein hang off ur head and chin does NOT make u a singh!! Without the sacred amrit and being a khalsa, no one has the right to call himself a singh!! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hari Posted May 23, 2004 Report Share Posted May 23, 2004 As a Sikh of Satguru Nanak Devaan Dev, your duty is to sikh (learn) from your Satguru.Simple. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted May 24, 2004 Report Share Posted May 24, 2004 Forgot the most important concept in sikhism: Call yourself Sikh ( By the way i dont claim one to be ) One who calls himself a Sikh of the Guru, the True Guru, shall rise in the early morning hours and meditate on the Lord's Name. Upon arising early in the morning, he is to bathe, and cleanse himself in the pool of nectar. Following the Instructions of the Guru, he is to chant the Name of the Lord, Har, Har. _________________ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
