I don't understand one thing. I was in Punjab this year, and saw some Nihang Singhs with HUGE Dumallas. But isn't this risky? What if something happened, and you have to pull out out your Sri Sahib and fight, for yourself, or for someone else. If your wearing a Dumalla that big, you can't really move around very well. I think it will leave you vulnerable to attack, and helpless to protect someone. I know they don't wear them all the time, but still, something can go down ANYTIME, and we must be ready to always fight.

I think that the size that the original Babbars use to wear during the early 80's is a good size, it is light yet big. But the kind of dastar that the Nihang Singh is wearing on the top is a bit too big and heavy. It's not very practical in actual warfare. The Taksali Dastars are a bit too small, but they look nice. A good Taksali Dastar should be as large as the kind Sant Jarnail Singh jee use to wear (it looks so nice on him). IMHO, a Singh who wears a dastar that is too small just does not look ferocious and dangerous. The Sikhs from Delhi wear very small paghs, it makes them look weak.

    • yeh it's true, we shouldn't be lazy and need to learn jhatka shikaar. It doesn't help some of grew up in surrounding areas like Slough and Southall where everyone thought it was super bad for amrit dharis to eat meat, and they were following Sant babas and jathas, and instead the Singhs should have been normalising jhatka just like the recent world war soldiers did. We are trying to rectifiy this and khalsa should learn jhatka.  But I am just writing about bhog for those that are still learning rehit. As I explained, there are all these negative influences in the panth that talk against rehit, but this shouldn't deter us from taking khanda pahul, no matter what level of rehit we are!
    • How is it going to help? The link is of a Sikh hunter. Fine, but what good does that do the lazy Sikh who ate khulla maas in a restaurant? By the way, for the OP, yes, it's against rehit to eat khulla maas.
    • Yeah, Sikhs should do bhog of food they eat. But the point of bhog is to only do bhog of food which is fit to be presented to Maharaj. It's not maryada to do bhog of khulla maas and pretend it's OK to eat. It's not. Come on, bro, you should know better than to bring this Sakhi into it. Is this Sikh in the restaurant accompanied by Guru Gobind Singh ji? Is he fighting a dharam yudh? Or is he merely filling his belly with the nearest restaurant?  Please don't make a mockery of our puratan Singhs' sacrifices by comparing them to lazy Sikhs who eat khulla maas.
    • Seriously?? The Dhadi is trying to be cute. For those who didn't get it, he said: "Some say Maharaj killed bakras (goats). Some say he cut the heads of the Panj Piyaras. The truth is that they weren't goats. It was she-goats (ਬਕਰੀਆਂ). He jhatka'd she-goats. Not he-goats." Wow. This is possibly the stupidest thing I've ever heard in relation to Sikhi.
    • Instead of a 9 inch or larger kirpan, take a smaller kirpan and put it (without gatra) inside your smaller turban and tie the turban tightly. This keeps a kirpan on your person without interfering with the massage or alarming the masseuse. I'm not talking about a trinket but rather an actual small kirpan that fits in a sheath (you'll have to search to find one). As for ahem, "problems", you could get a male masseuse. I don't know where you are, but in most places there are professional masseuses who actually know what they are doing and can really relieve your muscle pains.
