That's not why they use dye. The fact that they get grey hair is not why they dye. They dye because they're trying to pretend not to be old.

It's like saying, "I get tired, and that's why I use heroin."

Not sure I quite get your heroin analogy BHforce. ?

Anyway, saw a singh at a wedding once who had obviously dyed his beard and mucha. He'd obviously had a chemical reaction to it because his lips and eyes were obscenely swollen. I mean REALLY swollen. Felt really sorry for him because I bet he begged his wife that morning not to force him to go the wedding looking like that. Wifey knows best though.

Actually, now that i think back about it. His wife was from India and that probably explains it. He probably didn't want to dye his hair and was happy being distinguishly grey but ladies from India don't like it. Whereas in the west it's quite common for men to go a little bit bald and grey in their late 30s the only grey haired people you see in india are the very old buddeh. or maybe you don't see non-old buddeh that are grey in India because it's extremely common to dye and everyone non-buddah does it. Or maybe the grey ones that are non-budda are so ashamed they just stay indoors and thats why you never see them. Maybe it's the water, soap and shampoo we use in the west that makes people go balder and grayer at a much earlier age than in india. Maybe it's the stress. Not only the stress of modern life but also the stress of having a wife from india who forces you to dye your hair. I don't know. It could be any of these things or none at all. I don't really know what i'm talking about here. I just came to say I didn't understand the heroin analogy.

    • 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.
