If Sikhs Were Forced To Marry Gay Couples?

Sex within hetero marriage can also (does more often then not) lead to us straying from the path described as "khandeo tikhi, valo niki".

Yes this would seriously clash with social norms of today... but the path to Waheguru only gets tougher if we judge what is acceptable by comparing against what the rest of the 'civilised' world accepts.

I knew a very decent Gursikh lad who got married. He was of the opinion that sexual relations outside of the need to beget children was off limits. Unfortunately, his Singhni didn't see it that way and she left him after 10 months, citing the usual, "He never touched me." You just can't win with some people! What can you do in a situation like that? If one side has a sexual appetite that needs to be satiated on a regular basis, whilst the other has one eye on the bigger picture, then what's to be done? It's hardly the kind of question you can ask the vichole to pose, can you?

Sorry, what's a vichole?

Guru sahib prohibited very little, but have told us sex to satisfy kaam(lust)/moh(attachment) only strengthens humkar (sense of 'I'). It is clear what the gurmat answer is here. Its up to each of us decide what acts to prohibit.

If the sexual relationship is for procreation its an action with greater purpose and wouldn't be considered kaam/moh.

To answer ur question plainly because homosexual sex can't lead to procreation and the point of it can only be kaam or moh, therefore it isnt gurmat.

Sex within hetero marriage can also (does more often then not) lead to us straying from the path described as "khandeo tikhi, valo niki".

Would you be opposed to gay marriage if both agreed to not engage in sexual relations- just curious?

its tough mate, we have to look to guru sahib to guide us in such situations.. I wouldnt advise on such matters as I would be a bad example to follow.

The only point I make is that we cant try to bend gurusahibs message to airbrush the hard to digest truth.. We'd only be kidding ourselves.

im opposed to gay anand karaj full stop. A

dont get me wrong I dont judge homosexuals engaged in sex or not.. I see/treat them the same as a heteros. But I believe the anand karaj has only been approved by guru sahibs for a hetero union.

Yeah, can't disagree with that at all. Most we can do is put it down as a lesson learnt and move on.

Same sex couple - no offspring

No offspring = nature unbalance

Guru sahib ji would never allow things that is against natural balance.

What about low fertility rates?

How do you know there's gonna be a natural unbalance? Is having only one kid or three wrong for a couple by that logic?

    • 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.
