Eyebrows

Here is what I read/heard once. Ancient Romans (or was it Greeks? not sure again) held the belief that tampering with eyebrows reduces one's intellectual capabilities, and the person can't think straight. They were the ones who started this "doing eyebrow" tradition for women, so that women don't think and blindly follow the men.

Baki tuhadi marji. Bharvattay patt ke magar magar turna, ja sherni bann ke gajjna...phaisla aappe karo...

Interesting.

Any source?

I also heard it from a katha-vachak...but he didn;t provide any source to verify this info.

maybe sum of the people who do it can tell us why they do it? does have "nice" eyebrows make you more appealing? or make u feel better inside? duz having rubbish eyebros make you feel hugly or inferior inside? having nice eyebrows make you feel whole?

thats excuses womenses use to explain having their breasticles enlarged. cos they say we didnt feel right. we felt inferior or wotnot.

i am very happy wiv my monobrow even tho it curve right round my eyes and almost touch my ears.

You must have great eyes because I really can't tell if someone has "done" their eyebrows or not. If I got a few inches from their face and saw it up close, then maybe I could. Or, it could be the fact that I just don't like to get all up in people's business like that.

Remember, some people, whether men or women, just don't get a lot of hair on certain areas of their body. I would take this into account before you start labeling anyone, which you shouldn't even be doing in general.

The Khalsa will still be just as strong, even when this world has been destroyed and every person who was ever on it is just a faint memory.

:) ye like me...people think i shave my dhari because i dont have any facial hair on my cheeks and people also think i shape the hair on my chin to make it look "cool"

lol hahahaha

Yea exactly man. As long as I cover my head hair who cares. Guru Nanak Dev Ji would allow me just like Guru Gobind Singh allowed the singh who pulled the white hair out of his dhari.

I wear a dastaar, do my eyebrows and go clubbing - you people shud mind ure own business. And if you wanna say its wrong then I am gonna tell u its judging....... rolleyes.gif

Oh man do u not sense the sarcasm....I posted these kinda topics on sikhsangat before. Apparently you cannot tell people they should not remove eyebrow hair, how they should not wear makeup, perfume, bleach face, go clubbing....cos its erm judging them. I got attacked and was told that I was judging ppl and how I am awful for that. This is the biggest load of cr*p I have heard.

Incidently with my story of the 10th Guru Gobind Singh, I shall repeat for those not familiar......there was a singh..the Guru loved him alot and complimented him on his dhari....the singh then looked in the mirror one day and noticed a white hair. He pulled this one white hair out cos he felt it was ruining his nice black dhari...and then he went to see the Guru but the Guru BLANKED him.

The singh then asked the Guru if he was upset with him. The Guru told the singh that he thought he was imperfect with the white hair when infact by pulling and removing it he is no longer perfect. We should be confident to love what God has given us. Likewise we shouldn't do eyebrow hair, its not judging cos the Guru wud have then judged too.....

So to people like Manmit chera...we don't need to wear a bracelet and pretend to think what the Guru wud say. We already know what our Guru says........also i don't go clubbing....i just was using reverse psychology ie applying the logic of those who say u shud mind ure own business!

I believe we should comment on these things...and we shud not brush them aside. Our Guru's commented on everything, no matter how tiny or how small..removing eyebrow hair is wrong but its equally wrong to create a culture where u cannot comment about if its wrong. Obviously u don't need to mention names but raising public awareness is a huge thing, it indirectly encourages those sitting on the fence to stop doing their eyebrows! I'm gonna leave it at that and sorry for any misunderstandings.

    • 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.
