So What Do You Do?

Vaaheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa Vaaheguroo Jee Kee Fateh !!!!!

Sangat jee, I have had a bunch of dumb questions for quiet some time about the Rehits ever since I took Amrit. I request only Amritdhari Singhs and Bibis to respond.

1.) Do you use 2 towels during your ishnaan? One for the body & one for the kesh?

2.) Do you use a large kangha in your joora or a small or medium sized one?

3.) (For Singhs) Do you use he same kangha to comb your kesh and your beard? And do you keep the same one in your joora?

4.) Is it ok if you sit on the floor on a spread out bedsheet to do Nitnem if there is no other higher place or furniture in your bedroom besides an air filled mattress which is too uncomfortable to sit on for an hour?

Thank you

1. Yes, 2 towels when I do kesi Ishnaan

2. My hair is very long n thick, so i need a pretty big one

3. I use a daree brush to comb my dari

4. yes its okay...

1. Two towels are supposed to be used when you do ishnaan. Singhs that were going to do panj pyara de sewa stayed at our house a while back and specifically asked for two towels each- one for their kesh, one for their body.

2. Use a kanga that is approrpriate for the length/thickness of your hair- that you can properly comb your hair with and keep in your dastaar.

3. Dad uses a different kanga- bigger one for his dhari, as he has has more dhari then he does kes on his head. He keeps that neatly in a drawer in the bathroom as thats where he usually combs it.

4. Whoever does paath/has gutka in hand should always be higher than all other bodies (your furniture doesn't count in this). I've been taught you should try to sit on the floor as we do in Gurudwara Sahib and only for circumstances where you can't resort to- sit in chairs, etc.

think its fine to do your nitnem lying down, its a personal choice to be honest, some people even have there nitnem on mp3 its all gud, 2 towels is a deffo i think, as for kanga the bigger your kanga the higher your iq mines HUGE! :wub:

.....i think it's impossible to do Jaap Sahib lying down. And we should stick to Maryada. Listening to mp3 is okay but by reading from Gutka we have Darshan and stops us from looking around.

Also people reading Paatth from the Internet, what if they are wearing shoes and their head isn't covered?

[Guest baba amarjeet singh]

it is not impossible to do jaap sahib lying down, it is very possible

what marayda says tht u cant recite bani while lying down?

its fine doing nitnem lying down

like i said, if you are reading out of a gutka, thats different, and you should be sittin up, and no one should be seated higher than the person with the gutka, etc

but if you are just reciting bani from memory it is fine to lie down
