Guidance Needed

Hello All,

It seems a good platform to discuss my scenario and get proper guidance. I have been trimming my beard in past and recently I have stopped trimming my beard. I wished to take amrit with Guru kirpa, but now my beard length is becoming very long and it makes me think to reconsider my decision. I keep my beard open but don't know if will not make any difference in professional life to work in a company? With guru kirpa, I am vegetarian and do 5 baani nitnem daily. Please guide me if I am unnecessarily compelling myself for Amrit as bani says "Jo priye maane tin ki reesa, koorae moorakh ki haathesaa". rab rakha

Only take Amrit if you are willing to give your head to the Guru.if u feel u are uneccessarily compelling yourself you may perhaps need to reflect on yourself and establish what Amrit is and its importance and then if its for you at all. Khalsa isn't a wish wash of people following like sheep. You habe to uphold a rehat , a high discipline lifestyle and give your life to the Guru.

I have a long beard and it hasnt stopped me in the professional world. There are challenges but its certainly not going to stop you getting a professional job at all. Again you need to reflect why you are growing it and whether you are forsaking a gift from Guru due to influence of Maya or not.

waheguru

sabat surat dastar sira,

sabat surat sidha darha , kath ka kanga keshi chada

i keep my beard flowing ,

waheguru is making me work in IT company as a TL.

the main hurdle is your own family or the rishte you gona get they going to say tie your beard,

so its hard to find singhnie who doesnt want you to tie your beard,

for me its like this saroop is my father Guru Gobind singh ji's den

and its on rent for me till this chola lives

to alter this and tie this beard would be tying my fathers beard which is unacceptable

however,

you also need to take care of your hair , if you work in a hazardous envoirnment , you can tie your beard enough so that it doesnt come in your way

but as you are stating for professional life.,

the answer is No!

it wont make a different , they see your work .

    • 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.
