according to rehatnamas a khalsa sikh is only supposed to wear the khalsa colours which are blue black orange white.

for a phug this is usually just blue, black or orange, becuz if u wear white people will think u are a naamdhari lol

it is especially important a phug is one of the khalsa colours. no greens, reds, pinks, spotty, flowery, etc lol

the strangest thing i have seen is a nihang with a HUGE red phug. hmmmmm.

I still dun udnerstand whats wrong wiv Green Reds etc :) :T:

bhull chukk maaf

It shouldn't matter, what matters is its significance and purpose. We should focus on our Sikhi more than useless matters of this kind.

vwihgurU jI kw Kwlsw!

vwihgurU jI kI &iqh!!

Agreed. Its what is inside that counts...

And if you look closely at the shabad that was quoted earlier, it doesn't say anything about orange, so is that forbidden too (note the sarcasm)?

I was giving my personal interpretation of the shabad above because I thought maybe it has been misinterpreted. Please forgive me for any errors.

That said, I still think, if 5 rehitdharee Khalsas did Punj Pyare seva and issued the hukam to you that you should wear only orange, blue, black and white, then I can't preach to you what you should or shouldn't do but Bhai Daya Singh Jee (THE FIRST of the FIRST punj pyare in 1699) gave a rehitnama that instructed Sikhs that whatever is told to them in their amrit sanchar, they should keep it close to their heart.

The only time I can see this being an exception is if practicing the rehit is very difficult in your INDIVIDUAL, PERSONAL, UNIQUE situation (Guru jee is always forgiving) or if you somehow have the avastha to realize that your punj weren't really qualified for the seva because they don't do their nitnem or they did some kurehit or they are teaching major anti-gurmat including namdhari or nirankari philosophies.

Red and Green are most associated with Islam, Hinduism, and Santa Claus / Christmas.

However blue is also associated with Muslims, ORange also with Buddhists.

So I don't think it's about religious difference.

In fact that would be a new level of colour-based racism.

I think they are just practical colours - the philosophy of orange and blue is deep... orange is the alert, attack colour, blue is the calm, peace colour - Sant / Sipahi right there.

In India, white is for death, In A

merica, black is for death. Sikhs keep death on their minds all the time - always preparing to meet with Guru jee.

It just makes sense - my punj pyare said it to me . . . I avoid wearing tacky clothing anyway. . . but my sister says all my clothes are tacky :) . . . except for my blue chola rolleyes.gif

bhul chuk maaf karnaa jee

    • 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.
