Who To Give Amrit To...


Recommended Posts

Panj Piyaare have to stand for a longer period and its hard for a disabled person to do so. While preparing amrit the hands are to be placed on the sarbloh batta (correct me if this is wrong), so ideally a person should have both arms intact. While preparing the amrit and reciting bani the eyes should be concentrated at the amrit. This is what i think could be the reason for having able bodied singhs.

lol actually i think they prefer 'handicapped' now - dont ask how that sounds better!

Anyone who has received amrit can never be called handicapped. It is those who have not taken amrit are the ones who should be called handicapped.

Better? :umm:

What would have happened when Guru Ji called for someone to give their head and a disabled person stepped forward?

"what would have happend, if a bibi came forward?"

"what would have happened, if mataji didint bring patasey?"

"what would have happened, if no one came forward?"

i could go on for a while .......

the point is stop speculating, this "what if" will be the end of us. we all know what DID happen, so lets keep that in mind :TH:

na my point is that if they were disabled then it would be acceptable for another disabled person to have the honour of being a panj piyara. It might sound a bit iffy but i reckon i'd b a tad bit upset if i tried real hard to be the best sikh i can be but when it comes to being a panj piyara i cant because i'm not perfect in another persons eyes. Even though what Bandar pahji says makes loads of sense. But what bout if ur blind in only 1 eye?...

    • 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.
