Sangat Ji, its been really a great blessing of Satguru Dhan Sri Guru Nanak Dev Ji Maharaj. There is going to be an Amrit Sanchar at the Guru Har Rai Sahib Ji Gurdwar West Bromwich on the

16 April 2011 at 7PM & Kirtan Darbar from 6 to 11 pm

During an Amrit Sanchaar, Naam manifested in the Divine-Name (Gur Mantar) is given by the Guru (in the form of the Panj Pyaare) to the seeker. The Guru-Roop Panj Pyaare awaken or reveal the Naam within the seeker that leads to the beginning of the Spiritual Journey of Gurmat:

Historical Background of Amrit Sanchar

Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji, on the occasion of Baisakhi of 1699 A.D., chose "Panj Piaras" who rose at the call of Guru Sahib to offer their heads, and created "Khalsa Panth". At this historical occasion of great importance Guru Sahib prepared "Amrit" (Khandey Di Pahul) by reciting five "Banis" namely, Japji Sahib, Jaap Sahib, Sudha Swaye, Chaupai Sahib and Anand Sahib and baptized those chosen five Sikhs with it.

Amrit is compulsory

After that Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji took "Amrit" from "Panj Piaras". From that day, to take "Amrit" (Khandey Di Pahul) from "Panj Piaras" was made compulsory by Guru Sahib for coming into the fold of "Khalsa". In this connection Sri Guru Gobind Singh Ji has clearly given directives in one of the "Rehatnamas" (Manual for code of conduct)

" Pratham rehat eh jaan khandey ki pahul chhake"

Rules (Rehats) and Prohibitions (Kurehats)

a) Rehats

1.Five Kakaar : To keep five "Kakaars" ( Kesh, Kangha, Kachh, Kara and Kirpan)

2. Five Banis : To recite five Banis daily( Japji Sahib, Jaap Sahib, Sudha Sawaye,

Chaupai Sahib and Anand Sahib) in the morning and in the

evening So Dar Rehras and at night Kirtan Sohila.

3.Only Guru Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji :

After taking Amrit, Guru of a Sikh is only Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji.

4.No Discrimination of Caste :

To treat all human being as equal. There should be no

discrimination of caste or creed.

b) Prohibitions (Kurehats)

1.Cutting Hair : Cutting hair is strictly forbidden in Sikhism. From your head down

to your toes, no hair is to be plucked, cut, burnt or

pically/surgically removed.

    • 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.
