Why so harsh, maybe she got pregnant and then in the period of 9 months decided to come back on the sikhi route? Before assuming, lets try and understand the circumastances ay? or maybe she still isn't on the sikhi route but wants to get married. Mistakes do happen u know. If she isn't amritdhaari then noone has done anything wrong and we can not blame the op or anyone.

Mistakes do happen, whatever happened happened, its important to learn from your mistakes and move on, you must come in terms with your mistake otherwise your mistake happened in the past won't let you move fwd in sikhi and will hold you back..i would say do ardas infront of guru maharaj asking for permission to be in anand karaj with that person, asking for permission to start from fresh(post anand karaj) with that person, take hakumnama from guru maharaj and follow through anand karaj vows going fwd, do extra gurbani patt/play gurbani specially during pregnancy time...everything will be fine..we don't believe in this christian/protestant form of sin (oh you made a mistake, you be doomed in hell)- main idea in sikhi if you made a mistake is to man up be honest with yourself, accept your mistake, learn from your mistake, do personal ardas infront of sri guru granth sahib, take hakumnama- follow through hakumnama and move on rest of sikh spiritual journey - Bhai Prapat Manukh Dehuria Gobind Milan ki Eh Teri Baria- You have gotten human life after long time, this is your chance to meet you Vahiguroo...!!!

Please speak with some elderly Gursikh known to you. Better if there is more than one. Not really asking you to go to Panj Pyaare, but if you could consult 5 devout Singhs and speak to them, I am sure they could guide you better. This is a real life situation so I would suggest speaking to someone wise enough, or someone who has been through a similar ordeal, if not worse. An online forum is definitely helpful, but this is something not many on here may have an advise on.

I think the difficulty lies in the fact that people should be married first and then have sex. It sounds like the opposite has happened here.

I don't think there is anything prohibiting this other than social culture. It may look awkward if you've progressed far enough in the pregnancy that others notice.

Go see Maharaj Ji and speak to Him.

I think it should be the same as for a normal sikh........whatever happened....is gone...can't be undone....that doesn't stop anyone to follow the techings and beliefs.........apologize from Guru ji and move forward with whatever you have on hand........as a normal sikh would do.......if you keep thinking about one thing...you won't be able to get over and move forward........

    • 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.
