hi,

im 17 now and i took amrit when i was 11, i was very religious and felt a real passion for sikhi when i was young, so i did what any passionate sikh would do and took amrit at a very early age. as i got older it became harder and i lost the passion i had for sikhi and got really lazy and i had a bad inflance in school, i didnt feel like an amrit dhari anymore and den it went down hill from there, i did aot of things i really regret, and i proberbly did and hav broke my amrit now :( ive started to better myself now and started doing paat and going to gurdwara every morning before school and alot of things to make myself closer to god, ive started to get more into sikhi again but the thing is i know i have already broke my amrit and i can tell my parents i want to take it agian coz i would have to confess for what i did but sadly i cant do tht :( they wont be able to handle it, so i dont know what to do? i still wear my 5ks and i never left my 5k's even while doing everything, but i feel wrong pretending to be amrit dhari. help asap please!! i promised myself i would b=never do anything bad again and i wont, i want everything to go back to the way it was when i was young and it kind of is but i keep reebering my past

I think you need to just be honest with them at tell them what is the reason. Being a Sikh it's ur duty to tell the truth. I personally took amrit around that age too because I was young and was "influenced" by my family. I did take it but never truly accepted being a Amrit Dhari from my heart because I felt as if I was pushed into taking Amrit and didn't take it from my heart. So I went to my grandpa because he's a very strict Amrit Dhari and told him about it(I stayed Amrit Dhari for a year) because I thought he would have understood. But no he got really mad off at me and was like "Sikhi nu mazaak samjaya a." He was right in his part too but for me I thought of it as why be a Amrit Dhari if I fully don't feel it from my heart? So I told my parents and went to pesh. I feel horrible to this day but I felt that was the right thing to do. When Guru ji will do mehr it will happen but it should happen truly from your heart.

We are humans - we all make fails - we learn of out mistakes - thats why we are SIKHS . LEARNERS ! I guess, you are caught in this mumbo jumbo "ritualistic " sikhi? Let of the guilt and starts accepting the failure you did, contemplate the words of Guru and don´t blindly repeat them! If you don´t understand read in english... Then if you have all guts back tell your parents... A Sikh fears no one.. He respects everyone.. And tell your parents with respect what you did! They aren´t perfect as well.. I bet they made mistakes in their life too!

    • 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.
