Sikh And Want To Cut My Hair


Recommended Posts

How long do you think hair from a really short hair cut would approximately take to grow back? And any idea what the turban is called that the magician magic singh ties? As for facial hair i only have a mustache but have never shaved in my life. I think i will be ready when i fully know how to tie a turban right now i don't know nothing about tying turbans. I've tried many times but it ends up a total mess.

about the messiness , yep I went through all that too , but the more times you tie , better you get, after about tying twice daily as Guru ji has ordered within the month it will become second nature and so much cleaner and neater looking, love your kesh they are the sign that you are trusting Guru ji from deep within

Waheguru keep you in chardikala Singh ji

if at your gurdwara theres a Singh whos around your age and is a Gursikh to help you out you shouldn't be afraid to reach out and ask for help on tying a dastaar a certain way. Also old sevadaars of your gw would gladly help you out with tying a dastaar that suits you personally. On the other note, I suggest you to read more history of great sacrifices of Singhs in the past especially Shaheeds who have so much for us to enjoy the freedom we have today. i can see your point of view of keeping kesh being pointless, but if you want to be a True Sikh of the Guru you have to follow his Hukams and guru ji's kirpa will do the rest. What I really think what you need is inspiration and motivation but theres a lack of that around today but you gotta keep your head up going through tough times in life. I do suggest you to first give effort of learning more about Sikhi and learn to tie a dastar from any sevadaars and than decide what path you want to choose. But if you give no effort and straight away cut your hair because you think its meaningless and want to fit in society today then I can't respect that.

Pray for me brother as I hope to become a Gursikh once again in time. Once i know how to tie a turban that fits me I'll surely grow my hair back. Hopefully Waheguru will forgive me later in life.

    • 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.
