Physical Fitness

Guru Angad took a keen interest in physical fitness, and encouraged his devotees to be involved in sports after their morning prayers. Guru Angad Dev ji inspired people to lead healthy lives. According to Guru ji, if you are physically fit only than you can pursue higher goals in life, because a sound mind can exist only in a sound body. He provided opportunities to underprivileged sections of the society to maintain good health. He encouraged all people to be involved in wrestling bouts or Mal Akharas to compete in physical competitions. This was again his way of doing away with social taboos of people of lower caste not having physical contact with higher castes. These steps initiated by him laid the foundation for a spiritually, educated and enlightened, healthy Sikh community, without distinctions of caste and creed.

That's brilliant. I'd forgotten this aspect to Guru Angad Sahib's period of Guruship. Physical fitness is absolutely essential. No one's saying people have to attain an Olympic level of fitness, but at least get to a stage where even mundane efforts don't get a person winded.

All Guru Sahibaan were ONE JYOT. All Guru Sahibaan were Kings of Sachkhand. All Guru Sahibaan had Gyaan of God's AKaali Nihang Army that functions in Karam Khand and from there does raaj over entire creation via beant shaheedi faujan.

Guru Nanak Sahib's Barchi(spear type shastar) I feel can be seen in some Itihaasisik Gurdwara Sahib in Orissa.

So what I am trying to say is Guru Hargobind Sahib Jee starting Wrestling among sikhs is the same thing as Guru Angad Dev Sahib jee starting Mall Akhaaras.

You mentioned Guru Angad Sahib in relation to fitness and sports. Not me. I didn't make the distinction between Guru Sahibs, you did. I merely commented on an aspect of what one particular incarnation of that jyot spearheaded. Keep your caps lock and bold letters under control, Singh Ji.

Veer jeeo, I am sorry. Please forgive. Its my way of writing that I use caps lock and bold letter. They are not meant for any offense. You are my dear sikh brother, so please forgive me.

Regarding my post, it wasnt a reply to ur post and what u wrote was totally right. I just wanted to put more thoughts that even Guru Nanak Sahib had an amazing Barchi Sahib(which lots of sikhs dont know). I just get AMAZED reading about what our Guru Sahib did. They were/are KINGS of Sachkhand. All the SHASTARS bow in front of all our Guru Sahibaan and that included Teeji Paatshahi Pta Guru Amardaas Maharaaj and Sodhi Sultaan Chauthi Paatshahi.

See: the above caps lock was just to stress my thought and not any offence!

The official Akal Takht Rehat Maryada, I won't say much else, since the mods here can't allow civilized discussions.

Okay, I think i'll keep my old fashioned views to myself then, you know, the one where taking amrit means you don't eat meat.

Amritdarries don't eat meat or drink alcohol! Next we will hear they don't wear Kacherrays, Sri Sahibs, Kanga Karres and Kesh!

Instead of the 2 of you being internet warriors on the issue, go tell some Nihangs not to eat meat, (your not solving anything complaining on the internet)

    • 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.
