What you mean "don't agree" ? Thats like saying "I know some of you don't agree with murder and rape but..." :stupidme:

There is no debate about the issue. It is not an issue that has different sides of opinion. Everybody, except you, knows that as n amritdhari dastar wearer she can not, under any circumstances, trim her eyebrows / make-up etc. If she wants to do that, thats fine, but she obviously needs to take off the dastar. As you can see from all her photos, she has actually taken off her kirpan and so is actually probably no longer an amritdhari. However, she has chosen to keep the dastar because it is her gimmick / tool for career publicity.

You obviously possess a dodgy dictionary that has a strange definition of the words "same thing" but how exactly are people making it clear they are trimmed non-amritdharis be the "same thing" as someone making it clear they ARE Amritdhari ?

How do you know she had the brows done? Looks like it, but some also have naturally like that ( very few, but it is possible),

Is make up forbidden or frowned upon? How you know she even wore a Kirpan or is amritdhari in the first place, like no males would dare to wear a dastar or trim facial hair if not had Amrit?

I don't know. Which is why we're all interested to know from her (or anybody that knows her) if she is / was because.....she will become the first Sikh woman in the history of mankind to adopt an amritdhari's dastar without being amritdhari. Unless, of course, you think it is extremely common around the world and there are thousands of them ?????

Sorry but you are wrong again, there are non amritdhari women who wear dastar! Some are in prep or some just try wearing or some as I have met in Punjab, who have undergone chemo also wear.

Earlier you post "there is no debate about it", now you state "I don't know", and you would like to find out from her. Please stop making sweeping statements as you come across as very arrogant, a know it all - but you are not.

This sikh blogger in question on this thread, had an interview on bbc asian network, on nihals show, presented by tina daheley. check it out. BTW she is an amritdhari.

Listen to the show from 2hrs 31mins, the interview starts from there. Also the main dicussion on that program in the 1st hour was about whether asian kids living in uk should prioritise english or their own mother tongue languages, decent views.

    • I agree we're not born with sin like the Christians think. Also I agree we have effects of karma. But Gurbani does state that the body contains both sin and charity (goodness): ਕਾਇਆ ਅੰਦਰਿ ਪਾਪੁ ਪੁੰਨੁ ਦੁਇ ਭਾਈ ॥ Within the body are the two brothers sin and virtue. p126 Actually, we do need to be saved. Gurbani calls this "udhaar" (uplift). Without Satguru, souls are liable to spiritual death: ਜਿਨਾ ਸਤਿਗੁਰੁ ਪੁਰਖੁ ਨ ਭੇਟਿਓ ਸੇ ਭਾਗਹੀਣ ਵਸਿ ਕਾਲ ॥ p40 Those who have not met Satguru Purakh are unfortunate and liable to death. So, yeah, we do need to be saved, and Guru ji does the saving. The reason Satguru is the one to save is because God has given Satguru the "key" (kunji): ਸਤਿਗੁਰ ਹਥਿ ਕੁੰਜੀ ਹੋਰਤੁ ਦਰੁ ਖੁਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਗੁਰੁ ਪੂਰੈ ਭਾਗਿ ਮਿਲਾਵਣਿਆ ॥੭॥ In the True Guru's hand is the key. None else can open the door. By perfect good fortune the Guru is met. p124
    • That's unfortunate to hear. Could you give any more information? Who was this "baba"? He just disappeared with people's money? Obviously, you should donate your money to known institutions or poor people that you can verify the need of through friends and family in Punjab.
    • Sangat ji,  I know a family who went Sevewal to do seva sometimes end of 2019. They returned last year in great dismay and heart broken.  To repent for their mistakes they approached panj pyaare. The Panj gave them their punishment / order to how t make it up which, with Kirpa, they fulfilled.  They were listening to a fake Baba who, in the end, took all the "Donations " and fled sometime over a year ago. For nearly 4 years this family (who are great Gursikhs once u get to know them) wasted time and effort for this fake Baba. NOT ONLY this one fam. But many, many did worldwide and they took their fam to do seva, in village Sevewal, city Jaitho in Punjab. In the end many families lost money in thousands being behind this Baba. The family, on return, had to get in touch with all the participants and told them to stop.  I am stating this here to create awareness and we need to learn from whom we follow and believe. It's no easy but if we follow the 3 S (Sangat, Simran and Seva) we will be shown the light. As I am writing this the family in question have been doing the same since 2008 onwards and they fell for this Baba... it is unbelievable and shocking.  This am writing in a nutshell as am at work on my break so not lengthy but it deserves a great length.  Especially the family in question, who shed light on youngsters about Sikhi 20 plus years!! 
    • Giani Kulwant Singh Jawaddi Kalan uses simple Punjabi.
    • Leaving aside Guru ji, the general question of taking afeem (opium) in limited quantities for war/medical wounds is simply unproblematic. When you go to the hospital, they give you morphine. What do you think morphine is? It's an opiate. Even codeine (cough syrup) is an opiate! Ever had a cough? Granted, it is against Gurmat to take opium or other drugs for the fun of it.
