Red is the color of the turks

green of the hindu army

Color do not change what type of person you are !!!

[00gurpreet_singh00]

it says in bhai nand lal jis rehitnama that guru gobind singh ji said anyone whoi wears red is a tankhiya

[Gurbar Akaal]

Red is the colour that Banda Bahadur tried to make the Khalsa wear after he tried to take over the panth, from all the rehitnameh that ive been through ive never seen one which says dont wear green though

btw, blue is the colour of the turks, bani itself says it.

FATEH!

khalsa ji,

I got a video from DDT stating the above, that green and red are anit gurmat.

It's a scientific fact that Red colour excites the mind or makes u panic under pressure (which is y casinos etc etc haf red lyt <_< )

Anyway the link to the download is below:

s1ngh ji u r quite right...but this could leadto arguements as 2 y we need 2 wear 5 K's.

Basically, its best if we wear simple clothes...so i fink orage/blue/black/white r simple colours

Pleasee tell me if Im rong..

Its not an anti-gurmat day because its not our holiday just like Eid, Christmas, or Holi are not anti-gurmat days.

Color changes your appearance and it reflects your personality, in old times those colors were associated with different religions and are visible until today, if you goto a mosque the color green is very visible, and if you goto a Hindu parade or pooja, the color red is still very visible.

The Khalsa is distinct, that is why Guru Sahib said to wear distinct colors and not those associated with another religion or customs.

Its just a matter or representation, say if you have a green pugg and kes/dhari people gonna think you are a muslim because thats the color most associated with their religion/appearance.

OK ...

I think i should put my own two cents here...

I dont get it ... whats wrong wit colours ?? Colours are just a colour ... and nowadays there are no mughals or hindu armies that are upon us ... so why are we all into the whole colour thing. And why are we so superstituous about it that if we where it, it will effect our mind. HOW ABOUT if we do simran and paath, then nothing can effect the way we think and act, can science prove that wrong ?

ALSO, i have seen the many ramaala sahib put over guru sahib in grudwaras in red, green and many fancy colours....

.... i dont know if its written by guru gobind singh ... i guess we have to read and understand .. is he saying IN GENERAL or is he implying to only of that time ...

bhul chuk maph.

this is rediculous...

wearing any colour isn't going to make you any less or better a sikh....

i know an uncle wears a green pug...the guy wakes up at 2am every day and does simran for hours...one of the most humble loving guys....in fact he wears any colour pug..whatever he finds sitting there....

i highly doubt guru ji's gonna ask you about what colours you wore when you die...he might ask us about whether or not we kept amritvela, whether or not we did simran, seva, sangat, whether or not we served his children, whether or not we loved humanity....so why not concentrate on those things??????
