Har hare, I know what I am, and obviously a Sikh wouldn't be delusional as your thoughts are so go ahead and carry on.

How ironic you call me delusional yet it is you who decide that you're completely right and infallible, then by extension live in a life of baseless assumptions without trying to comprehend anything outside of what any random person will tell you :( It's alright my Hindu Sister, you may flourish yet.

I thought Sri Mata Sahib Devan becomes our Mata ji because she is the mother of Khalsa.

True , because Guru ji had only allowed marriage to Mata ji because she insisted that she would do sewa of Guru ji and panth rather than go home with her Father , she had no children so Guru ji put Khalsa panth in her cholee to be her children.

Nothing wrong with marrying someone of your own caste/background    but when you start thinking your better than another sikh or that your below another sikh because of your caste then you are very wrong and against gurus sikhi.

All the gurus married within their own caste, in fact I dont think there is a single case of a sikh from our ithiaas who marries out of his caste. But at the same time they all ate together regardless of their background.

I have no problem with marrying outside my caste but some Some sikhs have different cultures depending on their caste and these cultures will clash after marriage. Like I come from a very traditional family and I cant see myself marrying someone who is a khatri because culturally they can be very different and our families will just not gel. The cultural difference will get in the way. But at the same time there should be no discrimination.

Regional differences can create cultural clashes aswell. I come from a traditional doabi family and will have to mary some from doaba, not only can the culture be different but the dialect too.

Iike one of my cousins married a girl from a village near amritsar and there have been so many cultural clashes that the marriage almost ended up in divorce. When they used to argue especially the girls mother  you could only understand around 75 % of what shes saying   the rest would be some local amritsar pind words! And the swear words she would say were filthy. 

We all come from diverse backgrounds and its important to take all this into account when getting married especially when you come from a traditional family

If your from a more modern gorafyed family then I doubt any of this would be a problem.

Regardless respect each other and dont see yourself as higher or lower because of your caste.

I agree with all you have said. But i think there r sakhis of ppl marrying out of caste. 

The one about the rani who wouldnt lift her veil and went crazy. Later on a woodcutter sikh married her. 

The sakhi where a poor sikh spilled spots of paint on dasam patshah. And guru ji said to slap him . All the niktvarti sikhs ran to slap him and ended up bearing him severly. Guru ji was displeased and said he was supposed to he slapped not beaten. The sikhs all pleaded we were just following hukam. Then guruji said, fine marrynur daughter to him. All were silent. Until one sikh stepped up. 

Also bhai manj that married his daughter to a badmaash.

And yet the Sikh Rehat Marayada as per the Akal Thakt is unequivocally against even asking what caste the spouse is and insists that a Sikh is to marry a Sikh regardless of the caste. Sri Guru Granth Sahib ji clearly shows that caste is a non-Sikh entity and has no bearing on character etc.

This, however, did not stop the numerically dominant Jats from separating so called lower castes at the village level, differentiating where each caste was to reside in any given village. Why so? Can any person on this forum answer this? 

Isn't it the case that many jats converted to Sikhi after caste abolition by the Sikh Gurus and rather than submit to the casteless protocol of Sikhi, the Jats separated themselves from everyone else (literally at village level) and ensured that the so called lower castes would always be reminded, that they will never be on equal terms. This manifested in separate Regiments (Sikh Regt v Sikh Light Infantry) to this very day. An utterly ridiculous concept that flies in the face of common sense, Sikhi and gurmat.

Until this anti-sikh caste division at the village level is destroyed, the Jats will never allow the casteless Sikh inspired society to flourish, be it in the village, the Regiment, etc.

Only then will Sikhs marry other Sikhs regardless of caste en masse.
