VAHEGURU JI KA KHALSA, VAHEGURU JI KI FATEH Mahapurakhs were both celibate and gristhi. Unless someone here is a Brahm-Gyani to be able to tell which Mahapurakh was "superior" to another, let's agree that there is no requirement to be one or the other. Then, Gurbani quotes, which focus on self-surrender, were posted - none of which implies that either gristhi or bihungum lifestyle is preferred. It is a question of controlling the mind, not marriage status is. Vaaran Bhai Gurdas examplify Guru Nanak Sahib's crusade to ensure that celibacy loses its "superior" religious status. His dialog with celibates is adequately documented there and every time, Guru Nanak Sahib dismissed the ego and hamkaar of celibates, who were quick to dismiss gristhis as ever being capable of mastering any spiritual path, and chided them by saying you insult the very people who you beg at the door of and did not the celibates come into this world as a product of gristhi jeevan? Saying anything against Sant Jarnail Singh had better come with evidence. Who were the Punj Pyare who told Sant Ji to leave Harmandir Sahib? If your father's house is being attacked, would you not defend it? What right does the Indian government have over Harmandir Sahib? It is as much at Sant Jarnail Singh's home as it is any other Sikh's - he has absolute right to defend an attack on his home (do you not call your father's/mother's home your own)? This antiquated argument is flawed to the core. Again, there is NO special status of celibates in Sikhi. One can choose to be celibate or married and live Sikhi to its fullest. Many gristhi Mahapurakhs have done seva in the Punj Pyare and led the Panth through difficult times. Guru Sahiban were themselves gristhi.

Thank you everyone for your replies, I really appreciate it!! I have had my eyes tested recently and everything is OK! I have always had anaemia for as long as I can remember, but I never experience these sorts of severe constant headaches before tying a dastaar, and I still don't when I tie my hair in a plait....but I will definitely take on your advice and make sure that I consult the doctor about this again!! He is aware of my headaches and has only ever told me to take supplements!! To the veerji above, I really appreciate that input because sometimes I feel that they are a result of a lack in my spiritual life!

I'm not by any means saying don't take advice of sisters above, just bear in mind there is an additional outlook.

Its the best question. Most including me lack massive amounts of Gurbani Abhiaas. If we take Sansar Rogi, Naam Dharoo philosophy and make it an integral part of our lives many ills can disappear. We have placed too much faith in man made medicines and less in Aukhad Gurbani and naam.

If is hot there.

Didn't even know there was such a feature. Imagine the time I could have saved if I had known about this earlier lol

Neck Headache http://physioworks.com.au/injuries-conditions-1/neck-headache-cervicogenic-headache

Sorry by exercises I meant the yoga type where you turn your head to relax your neck.

Headaches are mostly linked to eyesight. Have you had them tested?

From her, Kings are born From woman, woman is born, without woman, there would be none O Nanak, there is only one without woman, the "Eko Sacha" (One Consciousness that is the Universal Reality) That mouth which endlessly praises with devotion is blessed in abundance O Nanak, those faces shall be radiant in the Realm of the True One Video in link below: https://www.facebook.com/QiRattan/videos/587723468043570/

One of the strangest and most stupidest experience of my life was when, on a visit to Punjab, someone suggested we leave our real life farmhouse on a real life farm with a real life persian wheel where we were sitting on a real life manjha in a real life rural outdoors watching our real life jattian relatives milk the real life buffaloes and instead..............go to a restaurant in a polluted city where they have plastic statue mock-ups of the real thing. In other words, leaving our real life in Punjab in order to visit a place that badly mimics our real life in plastic.
