Bhull Chuk Maaf!

have someone older thn you talk to ur P.E. teacher! he can't threatn u like that!

it could be that he is just worried about the safety of the other students and/or his! while u working out or playing etc kara can hurt someone so try to see it from his perspective as well. really dont argue with him...it will only lead to problems. his ego will be hurt...and we all know how much trouble that can cause grin.gif

so really have someone respected talk to him about it (over the phone or just in person). if that doesn't solve the problem then talk to the head of the department or principl of the school. im assuming u are in high school :)

bhul chuk muaff karniii

waheguru ji kakhalsa waheguru ji ki fateh!

Thinking it over, I feel that a kara in gym class, where you do vigorous activities in some cases, could possibly slide off your hand and hit someone, or it could accidentally hurt them while on your hand. That's why at a lot of fitness centers say not to wear any jewelry while using equipment.

I can see where he is coming from even if a kara is hardly jewelry. He is just worried about the school getting sued.

Yes I agree with all of you, but instead of asking me to take my karra off he threatened 2 take me 2 court or fail me, i have tried looking at it his way as well but it makes no sense my karra is blunt & thin n even if it hits sumone it wont even leave a mark our karra's arent that dangerous.

So my parents were told 2 take a copy of the kakkars & there meanings & have a meeting with the skool.

But our karra is our rehat just lyk our kesh, 2 us taking off our karra is lyk taking of our pagh or dastaar.

Thanks 4 ur helpfull coments

1. WHERE ARE YOU?!!! which country, city?

2. Who witnessed this conversation? Write down their names. Are they supportive and willing to confirm what the teacher said, if so ask them to INDEPENDENTLY write a detailed statement as to their recollection.

3. You write down a detailed statement immediately as to what took place.

TELL US WHERE YOU ARE!

why don't you just get a wrist band..and slip the karra under that...that way your teacher will be more comfortable with it not hurting anyone..

if you wear a dastaar ...you could do what i used to so and just take it off when you're changing for gym and put it in your dastaar...this was for when we had to play contact sports...

Your P.E. teacher feels evidently threatened himself / herself and that may be the reason behind the threat to you. Your teacher can, in no possible manner, harm you in any way. Be rest assured. DO NOT FEEL THREATENED.

To put your teacher's anxiety to rest, you could try wearing a wrist band over the kara so that while Gym-ing.. no gets hurt.

    • lol dal panth Panj told me explicitly not to associate with Vadhbhag Singh Sodhi followers!
    • We have lamp (or Jyot) the pure unscented candle for a reason. Traditionally, Patis used candle light (jyot), so they could read SGGS in darkness. Light, elec didn't exist. Dhoop is used to attract the "Good spirits" but also keep freshness where Maharaj will be.  Interestingly and coincidentally I heard Sakhi a few dsys ago. During Dasa Pitha's time these souls were roaming the Earth and even Sangat noticed. Maharaj asked them "y u here?" They replied during recitation of SGGS and making Degh they didn't bother lighting candle. THAT WAS THEE ONLY REASON NO GATI WAS GIVEN TO THEM!!!  AUTHENTICITY NOT CHECKED I heard once on YT like 2 days ago.  If u apply dhoop in one room of your house twice a week u will notice a difference esp in the smell and freshness of that room. 
    • Sangat ji, With the hot weather as per Guru's Hukm, how can we look after our kes?  First of all the beard! Working in Construction, factory and any other heated environment I UNDERSTAND! At my workplace it's over 32 degree celcius and sometimes we have to lift 20kg ALL! DAY! My tips, regularly shampoo the beard during ishnan. APPLY OIL! The technique of applying oil is by rubbing it thoroughly in the roots. Pay attention to the noise esp on the chin. You will hear this "crosh crosh" noise. Keep rubbing oil until u can't hear it no more! This means the oil has blended in properly.  Second tip on beard, keep an extra kanga in your pocket. Every two, three hours give your beard a proper comb down to get rid of any sweat or stickiness. SECOND BENEFIT! Do this all 12 months every single day your beard will look like it's been professionally groomed. TRY IT! People will ask you "What gel u use? How can yer beard be naturally like that?" You can say all I use is coconut oil or whaeva oil but just comb the beard every 2-3 hours for a minute.  As for the kes, morning time get rid of all the gronjra (or knots - forgotten English word), in the morning. However, during evening comb down make sure you get rid of small remaining gronjra and comb yer hair nice and straight. You will feel soooo so relaxed. Yes our hair will go unnoticed due to Dastar, but our hair demands time and self grooming!So proper combing down, spending a good 15-20 mins most evenings is an absolute MUST!  Most evenings I let my hair down and cover hair with my parna for 2-3 hours so it gets to relax from the tying up.  FINAL TIP! We are Sikhs so we keep fighting and remember this! The tradition of Dastar and uncut hair started in India, where the weather is twice as hot. Everytime we bring this thought in the mind, Guru ji will bless us and make us feel cooled down by a notch.  Fateh.       
    • Been so much nindya and attacking Shastarvidiya since the 2000s, however if we look at gatka now it's still mostly as poor and poorly taught as it was back then, still morris dancing moves and still behzti moves in BBC shows about sikhi and vaisakhi. If people were going to attack shastarvidiya, wouldn't have made sense to improve gatka instead and make it more effective? Additionally, the Nihang Singh presence has improved greatly now, and the cracks within the the SGPC and affiliated jatha jathebandis are showing more greatly as panth becomes more knowledgable with dasam bani and itihas day-by-day, so much gyaan which was lost within panjabi sikhs during colonial times. In the 2000s, the groups were able to talk down this bani and  gyaan by associating it with  RSS and hindus, brahminwaad etc. Not working so well now is it? However with gyaan it would be also good for us to try and preserve our martial arts and keertan vidiya as well! More and more crazy keertan videos are coming out from jatha members that are being made fun of and making sangat annoyed and upset, on tiktok and instagram reels.  
    • Author Posted April 24   On 4/21/2025 at 2:43 PM, ipledgeblue said: sirr should not be nanga because keski is usually worn.   Sikhs can sleep nanga-sirr if they choose to . Being from Punjab, almost every Sardaarji i know (amritdhari or not) sleeps/showers with their hair uncovered. I don't think Guru Sahib asked us to wear Dastar to sleep and I don't think it is in SRM.   The idea of "keski being worn to sleep" is cos in Bollywood films (Bachna Ae Haseeno) Sikh characters usually tie a gol parna when sleeping since the actor's usually Hindu. So they gotta cover his head somehow or he'd have cut hair. Same reason Diljit wore a pagg to bed in the El Sueno vid. Only time they didn't do that was in Gadar with Sunny Deol which just looked odd tbh   What in the world? What sikh or even a decent human would base their knowledge of their culture or religion on a movie industry, that too Bollywood?  Believe me, no sikh ever said, I must cover my head becasue an actor did so in a movie. I've been doing it all wrong, I must start covering mh head because the sikh in that movie did.  Just because every panjabi and sardaar you know, does something, also doesn't make it right..  Follow the guru. And if you have a medical condition, then exemptions can be made.  Just admit it, because of my medical condition, I am not able to follow this rehit. Why are you getting everyone else to drop to your level?
