First off this question isnt in favor nor is it against the rehit of AKJ. The AKJ seemingly puts a lot of emphasis put on "puratan maryada" and upholding the true rehit laid out by Guru Gobind Singh Ji. But what about the rehit regarding the style of kirtan? Isnt it supposed to be sung in raag as per tradition and instructions given in Sri Guru Granth Sahib as to what raag to use? I would like to know the reason for this. This is a simple question and I hope everyone stays on topic, please dont turn this into a pro-akj or anti-akj debate, if it turns into that, i would advice that this topic be closed.

I asked this question to my ‘main G (gurmukh)’. but I was left with the answer of, ‘there is a ghost on the left hand and it makes u do bad things; and that at the time of satjug everyone was right-handed. and as the times got worse till now, kaljug, the leftys increased’. o_O I then answered ‘ I don’t believe in that’ then the reply was that, ‘nowadays, people don’t believe…

In my lifetime, I have been to untold Gurudwaras, people's houses for Parth, weddings and funerals. I have always observed the many rituals and ceremonies in place, even though there are variations everywhere in the World, due to other customs and traditions. But, the question begging in my mind like a bad dream is....Is The Almighty Creator really impressed with such precision, timing, colour, ritual or tradition ? What say thee brothers and sisters ? :D
