Kesh Katal

[Niyara Khalsa]

Waheguru Ji Ka khalsa

Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh !

Sangat ji !

We all know any kind of ' kesh katal' ( waxing, triming, eyebrow etc. etc. ) is disrespect of gurujis order and is a symtom of manmat .

This hidayat is good enough for those who have aleady started treading the path of gurmat .

But there is a cousin of mine(and some of her friends) whom you can not convince by just a statement ( real reason is that she has not really started walking the right path ).

comming to the point :

I need help from you all for documented evidences , qouatations from rehitnamas etc. to make it drastically easier to convince her.

Akal Sahai.

(AsPokt sÍYXy, sRI dsm gRMQ)

The following five K's are the mark of Sikhi.These five can never be parted from the body. Kara, Kirpan, Kashera, Kangha, recognise these as four of them.The fifth is Kesh, without which the other four are useless. There are also four H's which must be avoided. Understand this without any doubt, no lies have been told. Hukka, taking tobacco (including any other type of intoxicants). Hajamat, removing of hair. Halalo, eating meat. Haram, adultery (sexual relationships outside of marriage). These are the four H's. Dyeing of beards (including any other body hair), and the wearing of mehndi (including other types of make up) are strictly forbidden. (Sri Dasam Granth)
