gur fateh ji exactly!!! u may feel that ur in love and u feel on the top of the world ( dnt say i dnt knw how u feel cz i do knw how u feel) and so on bt these feelings only last until fr a short amount of time bt if u get physical before marriage even kissing and stuff its gnna take away all the pleasure and understanding plus as sikhs (amritdhari or not) we are nt required to get physical... do u knw how ppl in the victorian ages dated?? well they were too off the top bt they did not get physical cz they always had a chaperone... so if u wanna be able to retain your amrit di daat then u dont wanna take this drastic step cz when u take amrit you try to abstain frm doing this kind of stuff... (thats why ppl marry) and if u cant control yourself avoid going to each other s houses and go out with frnds and Stay in public places hope you wont get mad or anyone who s reading my advice cz it s just advice if im wrong please forgive me

gur fateh jio i have a really good frnd who is a amritdhari bt she like s to remove her facial hair and when i tell her not to she gets mad at me infact she doesnt like my explanations at all..... so can one of you tell me as to wat reason should i give her so she quit s doing this stuff?? i dnt wnna mess up my frndship with her bt then i also dnt want her to do this.. hope one of you can give me a nice and solid reason as to why we amritdhari s cant remove our facial hair or any kind of hair anywhere so i can save her and our frndship... gur fateh jio

oh ok sorry i guess i messed up the name sorry

gur fateh jio! as usual i got a thought out of nowhere while driving home....... does any one from you all know if this pankti is in aad sri guru granth sahib?? and if yes wat ang number??? i only know the first part of the pankti... it goes like this ....... jananni jannai toh bhagat jann, ke daata, ke soor (this is the first part.........) please help if you know the answer....... thanks alot! gur fateh jio!

gur fateh jio!! guys is it bad fr an amritdhari sikh girl to be independent,have a great career,never marry,adopt a kid and never do bad stuff(like an affair etc etc) i mean is it necessary to live acc to our punjabi culture or gur sikhi?? my czn is like this im confused abt her hence this post............ feedback and advice needed!!!!!!!

adina jee you need to read the entire paragraphs i wrote ,and not nit pick .i am trying to state the bigger picture in my post .i am not here to try to define whether the person you get married should be ''fixed '' for you or whether its someone you get to know . Who knows the magical twists and turns that God can trigger for a relationship to start and end up as a marriage ,unless life is nothing but a strict set of rules you follow robotically .A bf may be just a guy you get to know,where the friendship develops to be husband and wife .My post is there to answer the original question mentioned in this post ,not to compromise or promote any sort of anti-gurmat licenstious /promiscuous behaviour .The intention of my post is to inspire youths to think along gurmat lines ,and i hope thats what you derived from my post if you read it line by line .We are not here to just argue ,debate with one another showing off our debating skills ,egoistically .We are here to inspire each other ,learn from each other ,and interact with each other humbly .opinions can be endlessly debated upon but truth is realised by dwelling on other's wisdom ,thinking out of the box a bit ,and stretching your imagination a bit as well as allowing others to touch your passion and your heart .Idont contribute on this forum to demonstrate my intellectual skills with an over alert ego waiting to pounch on the tiniest thing i can find wrong with someone else's contribution .Rather ,i read carefully what you or others may write and create a mental picture of what a blessed and inspired sikh you are ,and the insights Gurujee has given you or others .This forum is here for us to get passionate about sikhi ,to be able to see sikhi beyond the narrow parochial interpretations it has been given in the past ,to be fired up about sikhi ,to let sikhi shine ablaze in our hearts .my every contribution is an endeavour in that direction as to what can i write that will inspire both me and others to love sikhi ,and see it as a relevant force in our lifes .Sikhi is definately not about getting panic attacks over every tiny thing another can write that does not fit into your convenient orderly arrangement of words and sentences that are politically correct in your mind .it is the content of my post that you need to focus on ,not a random word i may have loosely used (relative in its meaning)to share what i consider is gurmat . sorry veer ji........ i had no intention watsoever of doing that sorry if i offended u

omg!!!!!!! neat yo! im so baking these cookies tonite...naah wait! 2morrow! lol thanks !

so true ! that is so true! bt its weird that our punjabi ppl ar not so much into sikhi as ar ppl from other races.... idk its just an observation......... i mean all the punjabi guys at my gurudwara ar clean shaven and those who hav darha sahibs hav em cut ..which doesnt make any sense....... whereas on the other hand guys from other religions like sikhi alot and dnt hesitate from converting and keeping full rehat idk why our ppl say its bad to marry someone frm another race/culture/religion etc etc i think as long as your partner helps you achieve the goal that we all came to achieve its all cool so race/culture/religion dnt matter bt parents these days ar so adamant! <_< WAIT ! lol does this mean boyfrnds ar allowed?

lol veer ji! actually i would love that too!marrying a gora singh bt then my parents will go nuts and make my life a living hell so yea dreams ar best left as dreams lol......... :rolleyes:

ok......... good luck veer ji ! :lol:

screw that, i'm enlisting as commander-in-chief dear veer ji ! u cant enlist as a commander in chief...lol u gtta become an officer before u do that :D

aw man! not fair! i really wanna know wat u all think .........

tie it into your keski. for girls, wear shorts that will cover your kachhera and a modest swim top. it's totally possible (and fun) to go swimming, even as an amritdhari. i'd actually encourage everyone to know how to swim. it's a skill that could save someone's life someday. ok i totally got your point bhenji bt wat abt the amritdhari girls? i mean we dont actually wear shorts cz of our hairy legs...(sorry guys) so :umm: any ideas?

lol......... yea we ar so off topic bt yea way to go dude!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!! proud of u brother

lol.......... u ar my bro dude........ and why u sorry u deleted aim? i mean WHY did u?

um shashtr ji ! i asked for the thoughts not for feedback or advice that ll change my mind about something ( or this topic...) and why u always harping around about how much i talk ? <_< i m curious for god s sake! it s not a crime to talk as long as u are thinking before u speak ! lol sorry if i sounded mean veer ji !

gur fateh jio! as usual i get some weirdo thought when im driving around........ just a thought wat do u all think about gursikhs (amritdhari sikhs) joining the u.s air force,u.s navy,u.s marine corps or the u.s army? :gg: i mean with the law passed which doesnt allow turbaned singhs to fight at the frontlines ( they can serve but not active duty) so i just wanted to knw how u guys felt about this topic gur fateh ji !

lol.......... thanks fr supporting my point veer ji ! u r the first one whos actually said "read read!" all my czns ar like"u insane? we punjabis dnt read!"

idk............ bt the common response when our elder s hear abt someone adopting a kid is " they cant hav a kid ..hence they adopted that kid!" well im pro adoption cz wats the harm in sharing your happiness with a child who doesnt hav any happiness in his/her life? some ppl say yu gtta be rich to do so ... ( i laugh at em ) cz u dnt need alot of money to make a child happy just gtta put in the efforts............. there ar so many kids ( meaning children of the shaheed singhs) who deserve the same kind of lifestyle that we v got here ( and take for granted of course!) for example: great education,oppurtunities to earn some pocket money,awesome libraries,ways to accomplish ur dreams etc etc and honestly they deserve more than us cz their parents sacrificed so much for khalsa panth... cnt we do something for them?............ other than just build foundation stones and leave those projects uncompleted? and those who are trying to make lives better for these children ar being mocked at and their projects being disrupted an so on......... i am adopting 2 kids.. ( i mean i had made up my mind before a long time before! bt my best frnd said i was crazy to think like this <_< ....... so yea i gt discouraged bt i am adopting 2 kids....)

gur fateh jio! hmm u like reading veer ji? cz if u do i recommend reading macauliff s whole set of sikh history......... um, if u hate reading there is stuff on the internet that u can google up and start reading sakhi s does your local gurdwara sahib hav a library?

omg shastr ji !! how am i supposed to know abt a so called arcade that i havent even heard about! :umm: care tellin me more abt it? wow! dude! india de vich rishwat face to face sunee see bt this is the first time iv actually seen a bribe request and that too on a forum ! lol u guys ar just awesome :lol:
