Every such question needs to be countered with a counter-question before being answered. Its all about what is your priority in life. If your priority is to live the way everyone else is living, you (the you in this post doesn't refer to B4ND4, just a general reference term), then no matter how much someone stuffs you with logic about Amrit, you won't buy any of it. If however you want to live the way Gurujee wanted His Sikhs to live, you won't ask questions, rather out of love you will follow whatever He has commanded. This is only my personal opinion. Its all about priorities.

Is Amrit really required??
Counter question : Why do you think its not required? I could ask "Is air or water or food required?" Again, depending on your hunger, thirst or breathlessness, you will respond. Are you hungry/thirsty/breathless enough yet?
When i say amrit i am talking about about the amrit sinchar ceremony, is it really required??
If it wasn't, why would Gurujee start it? The world was already caught up in rituals at that time, why would Gurujee, who in fact came to end these fake practices, leave us with another new one?
Does it help the individual??
Thats what the individual needs to ask himself/herself. No one else can speak for him/her.
Can't a person be human without that??
There are enough people in our world today who are worse than animals. Unfortunately, all of them look like humans, and some of them are judged as "handsome" and "beautiful" too. You can find a lot of tuks in Gurbani and Bhai Gurdas ji's vaaraan about a Sikh without Amrit.
Why have kes for spirituality??
Keeping kesh is a sign of accepting God's will. If someone considers God to be All-Perfect and free from the least possible degree of error, he/she would stop tampering with what God has made, what God has given him/her. Once you accept God's will, you'll already start getting somewhere. This answers your previous question "Does it help the individual" as well.
Why wear the 5 K's??
Khalsa is the army of God. An army without a uniform is no army. A son who doesn't look like his father is not fully considered as the son even if he claims to be one.

You can listen to this wonderful lecture:

    • 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.
