Mata Sundri and Mata Jito are the same; however Guru Sahib never married Mata Sahib Kaur, just made her mother of the Khalsa. Guru Hargobind did have more than one wife; however, Guru Arjun Dev Ji arranged them for him, because of his respect for the Sangat, even saying stuff like, "If he,(Guru Sahib) is a 5, then Sangat is a 6." Sangat requested Guru Sahib(Guru Arjun Dev Ji) to marry his son, (Guru Hargobind) to them.

According to Gurmat there can be NO difference between KATHNI n KARNI (speech n action)

Then how can Guru Sahibaan's have multiple wives & teach Sikhs to have only one !

Did you guys read the comments -

(The fact is that not that one is trying to question the Gurus, its the dubious things attributed to our Gurus that are questioned. You mention Guru Har Rai marrying 7 sisters which is mentioned in a few fairly recent books like the Suraj Parkash Granth (1843) and some sampardas like Taksal. But fact is that many even older books mention only 1 marriage: Mahima Parkash, Kav Sondh, Bhatt Vahi (all 18th century works) etc. The story made prevalent that Guru Har Rai married 7 sisters as a child is beyond doubt fake and concocted later on.)

Research indicates that overzealous writers often mythologized and concocted narratives as per their times. We know the Sixth and Seventh masters only had one spouse. Mata Jeeto Ji died early, and the 10 master remarried. Mata Sahib Kaur Ji is the virgin mother of the Khalsa.

Sixth guru had 3 wives.

    • 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.
