Should You Wash Youre Kashera By Hand

[Guest Guest]

Sangat jio I was woundering if you are allowed to wash your kachera in washing machine ? or should you wash it only by hand ?

Both ways is fine.

Mmmmmm I think it’s ok to use a washing machine, many Gursikhs I know do this, though washing it via hand is convenient in the sense that after your ishnaan just give it a wash and a rinse and leave it to dry

Also on the topic of kashereh is it ok to remove them during sexual intercourse? Someone asked me this and I said I presume it isn’t because as a Kakaar it is never meant to leave our body right? Even during ishnaan it’s not removed so I doubt it would be allowed to be taken off during intercourse? Someone else said it was fine to do so however so we were really no help to the person

don't forget that sikhi's not about following a standard set of rules... i mean, obviously to an extent it is.... but we can't tell people that sikhi is practical if we don't believe it ourselves...

i'm not going to get into details, but let's jus say uhh..movement ....uhh..would be slightly.....restricted....

if you couldn't take your kachhera off...... i meean, unless you wanna like... tie it around one leg or somethin, i donno... but seriosuly, that's jus getting a lil bit TOOO much into detail

I must firstly disagree with japman, that sikh actully does follow a set of strict rules , very stict rules actuially. A kashera should eb washed by hand in my opinion , it is discipline the only reason you wouldn't wash it by hand is if your lazy , you wouldn't wsh just a kashera in the washing machine and it's unlikely you would haeva washing load everyday , that could mean you leaving your dirty kashera for a few days before it's wshed , thats not acceptable. Scoendly in resposne to anjaans post , a kashera must never be taken off completly , even when having intercourse it must not be removed completley ever. you should never put raas of flesh above your devotion for Guru ji

All I want to say is that only wearing white kashera is brahmanvaad.

I agree 100% with Japmans. We are too worried and entangled in Rehat Maryadas, when we fail to do the simple and important things (ie following what we read everyday in the Guru Granth Sahib)

[tarunjeet singh]

rehat is essential without it you can't even call yourself a SIKH. Guru Gobind Singh Ji made that very clear. So all you lazy people who can't be asked to keep rehit and say "we just follow whats in Guru Granth sahib "" you need to wake up and smell the coffee cause your running on the spot and will not progress in your Sikhi.
