dust of your feet

rom rom har oucharai khin khin har soee ||With each and every hair, they chant the Lord's Name, each and every instant, the Lord.

rom rom raviaa har naam ||The Lord's Name permeates each and every hair of mine

rom rom man than eik baedhan mai prabh dhaekhae bin needh n peeaa ||Each and every hair on my head, and my mind and body, suffer the pains of separation; without seeing my God, I cannot sleep

guramukh rom rom har dhhiaavai ||The Gurmukh meditates on the Lord with every hair of his body

kaes sa(n)g dhaas pag jhaaro eihai manorathh mor ||1||With my hair, I wash the feet of Your slave; this is my life's purpose

rom rom mehi basehi muraar ||and on each and every hair, the Lord abides

romae rom rom romae mai guramukh raam dhhiaaeae raam ||With each and every hair, with each and every hair, as Gurmukh, I meditate on the Lord

I am sure these are enough to suggest that God is in every pore of our being. What we need to do with our hair is now obvious.

the translation is wrong. Rom Rom means each cell in your body where lord abides. When we meditate with Rom rom, it means our entire body, each and every cell is meditating with us. This is very high spiritual stage, the entire body is filled with naam and this is what guru nanak dev ji maharaj was on about when he said in gurbani "those who meditate on god with BODY and MIND, i am over and over an sacrifice to them".

now fight and defend your beliefs.

truth will stay as the truth.

Does sikhi has to do something with going to toilet or not?

But sikhi definately has to do something with "keeping kesh".

Sikhi is a way of life: ie: living the life as a Sikh. My post was made with humour in mind - because I found the other post quite the same blush.gif

now fight and defend your beliefs.

lol wow is that a lalkara 2 us?

Bhai ji you've answered your question yourself. Let us presume you are right, and that rom refers to cells. Are hairs not originating from cells? In fact cells are smaller than hairs! If God is in cells, and hairs arise from cells, then what difference does it make? When people say "romaan di beadbi", does that mean we are removing our cells? So rom has to refer to the smallest hairs on the body. Rom is also known as "rongtey" in Hindi and that for sure refers to the smallest hairs on the body.

And by the way, no one is fighting here. I don't know you, and so I don't know if you are keshdhari or not (which is none of my concern by the way). If you don't want to grow your hair, no one is going to force you Bhai ji. Its your life, your choice, and no one on this forum has any right to judge you as only Dharam Raj does that job.

And yes, truth will remain the truth

rom rom mehi basehi muraar

bhul chukk maaf

with regards

I am not saying whether we should cut our hairs or not. I personally keep my hairs myself.

I just wanted to correct the rom rom bit, rom rom is each cell in your body not your hair.

You're right the hair grows from the cell but if we shave we just shave the hair, the actual rom (cell is still there) and this is what causes our hair to re-grow.

    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!!

    • Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
