Kabeer, if you live the householder's life, then practice righteousness; otherwise, you might as well retire from the world.

All nihang Singhs and Damdami Taksal see great importance in Keski but however they do not regard it as kakkar, Kesh is kakkar, and this is apparent through any katha done by Gursikhs of these jathas. The implication by the original user that keski is indirectly a kakkar is completely unfounded and misinterpreted. Respect is given to Kesh and as such that is Kesh remain covered.

Nihang Singhs do not have to stay unmarried, in fact the many I have seen do have families and young bhuchangies with them, eg.

What is a kakkaar ? A kakkaar is something whose name startes with "k" and is to be kept with the body all the time. Nihung Singhs are supposed to keep a blue keski ALL THE TIME. Even while drying their hair, they are supposed to cover the head with a keski.That makes keski a kakkaar. GALL KHATAM.

If it makes you feel better then fine...

I'm not gonna get into a debate on this, I told you that both Nihangs and Damdami Taksal give great importance to Keski, however it is not a Kakkar in their eyes(Not your eyes, their eyes).

This is evident from the screen shots that Freed Bhaji has posted, if you care to take a look at point 21, which states,

"21. Panj kakaar (Kes, Kangha,Kara, Kirpan, Kachhera) eh sareer de ang samjhaney, kis vakht (ishnan karan samey ja raat saun samey) koi kakaar sareer ton vakh nahi karney."

Again I respect your views as it is your decision, but you can not speak for a whole organisation from a misinterpreted line as you did previously.

Bhul chuk maaf

Man, this is really sad and tells the state of the panth. U think I am some agent who wants to delibrately misinterpretet and prove that Budha Dal belives in keski as a Kakkaar ????

I am not speaking on the behalf of the Budha Dal as I am not a part of them and nor I am trying to misinterpretet. Budha Dal people keep a blue keski in their kesh all the time, even while drying their hair.

What I wrote was that, doing this actually means treating keski as a kakaar(not that budha dal calls it a kakkaar).

This is whats written in their rehit.

26. Amritdhari Singh - Panj kakaar di rehat dharan karey, ate kurahit ton sada bachey.

a. Singh Singhani kesan naal kesgi neeli jaroor rakhey.

b. Kirpan isht jaan ke har samey pehn rakhni.

c. Singh Dastar dhari hove (Topi manmat te kurahit he)

I consider all amrithdaris my brothers, all nihungs my brothers, its a shame that these days we have started to dislike each other on the basis of jathebandis. If u took amrit from x jathebandi and u go to smagam of a y jathebandi, people suspect u to be a jassoss, hahahaha etc. What a shame that is.

Lol I never said or implied you were an agent. Chalo Rabh Rakha, I apologise if I upset or offended you

veer, i assume u are a part of some nihung jatha. This is what u wrote

"but you can not speak for a whole organisation from a misinterpreted line as you did previously."

So according to you, I was trying to speak for a whole organiszation by misinterpretating a line. Man, u just spoiled my love for nihung dals. SHAME ON U!

I apologised didn't I?

man, the words that u once let out, are not easy to forget. One can forget a slap, but its tough to forget korrree bol. Words like "If it makes you feel better then fine..." and "Not your eyes, their eyes" and "but you can not speak for a whole organisation from a misinterpreted line as you did previously."

I never tried to prove that in Budha Dal rehit maryada, kesh is substitued for keski as a kakkaar. All my poor aatmaa was trying to say was that Budha Dal's rehit tells both singh/singhnis to keep keski with kesan and to even cover ur head with keski while drying hair which I feel is like treating keski as a type of kakaar.

    • Was listening to Sant Ji's katha on youtube.  Sant ji stated apart from the traditional raags, there is nothing wrong if Kirtan is sung in other NON - Raags set up by our Guru Ji's.  His example: Think of poison in a bowl.  Drinking the poison then blaming the bowl is silly. The poison is bad not the bowl. Likewise, we will never call a bowl Amrit once it contains Amrit init. Sameway it's not the raags being good / bad... it's WHAT we put into those raags. How many times Kirtan was sung but on a track of sum Bollywood tune? It is happening in Gurudwara by Raagis! Youtube also has Kaweshri jatha singing history of 1984, on Dr Dre's - Still Dre track.  Rap instrumental/ Bolly tunes stand neutral. We can either put bad things and sing with our own remixes and lyrics... or we can recreate to sing Shabads of Gurbabi, kirtan and Sikh Prachaar over them. 
    • Everything in Gurbani points us towards the Atma. Atma and Parmatma are the same… Atama and Parmatma is the source that creates and causes everything… What have the following items got in common? A fan. A television. A fridge. A radio. A computer..? These things are powered by electricity. Without electricity these things are lifeless. It’s the electricity that causes these things to function… Atma is the source of energy that allows everything to happen.    without Atma, we are lifeless… Call this Atama RAGUNATH…call this Atma by any other name…the fact remains that it’s the life force energy… Dieties also have the same Atma as humans, but they still part of the creation, and not the creator…  
    • Hi I want to know who’s ragunath in gurbani Hindu claim this word appear for ram chandra if we read guru teg bahadur maharaj salok maharaj clearly rejecting ram gayo ravan geo but at the last pangti Kahu naanak īh bipaṭi mai tek ēyk ragɦunaaṭɦ ॥55॥ Says Nanak, in this calamity, the Lord alone is my support who is this ragunaath why would maharaj use ragunath as refrence for god?
    • Throughout history we have been tested and tried. We remained steadfast and resiliant. The events that took place in Punjab and outside of Punjab in the past years made it quite clear we are big players in the game which kept the world powers on edge. It started off with the drug pandemic in Punjab, to the uproar by Bhai Amritpal Singh to the Farmer's protest. Outside of Punjab the deaths of Avtar Singh Khanda (UK) and Hardeep Singh Nijjar (Canada) created a stir within our community. This was probably our first real opportunity to establish something but how quickly members of our own community forget history. We have been a threat to civilization in the past and this is probably what the world powers are concerned about. However, may we continue grow and learn through Gurbani and like Jaswant Singh Khalra said: 'May the spirit of equal rights Punjab continue to kindle'. 
    • This is why people used to get married earlier in puratan times. Think about it, nowadays you legit have to be brahmacharya at ages when you're supposed to be married and producing children, which historically speaking, is unprecedented outside of the Sants in Indic tradition.
