Okay so this thought all began from the song - Mangni by Joban Sandhu... this song is about a girl who fasts on Mondays for her desired groom, i began resarching into this and saw that there are a lot of ladies who do this... seems kinda like a cute thing as every spends a huge amount of their time dreaming about their perfect husband so its like their actually doing something lol...

I was wondering is there any truth in this, even if it a tiny bit? there must be something because the bazurgs back in the day were quite knowledgeable. I know its nothing to believe in blindly like imagine if you fast so you can value food and ezperinec the hunger some people go through everyday alongside keeping a varat of lying and other bad and doing sukhmani sahib, would be pretty good.

It may feel like a romantic thing but it's a hindu thing, as are many cultural things. Like maiiyan on wedding and circling water and so much more. India is a hindu dominated land so even though bajurags are wise, it probably is that they followed the sheep to some extent. Hindu culture is everywhere loook at divali lorhi pre wedding rituals almost everything is hindu traditions are 'indian traditions' as it's their country. This doesnt mean that sikhs should follow any of them. Yes we may have indian ethnicity.... does that mean if somebody becomes british thst they must follow christian traditions? Of course not. hope this makes sense.

Fasting at best, can only make one loose weight.

Gyan, sharda, pyar, pargaas, is only got by devoting ourselves to Owner of akhoot bhandaar of all virtues, who is none other than Wahiguru Akal Purukh, as per Gurmat, through His chintan alone, not by any type or amount of rituals.

Sat Sree Akal.

Your ignorance is defiently bliss, it may look like a romantic thing that they were fasting, but in reality it's a Hindu custom called Karva Chaudh, it's a religious thing for them, doesn't actually mean anything. (What kind of songs are you listening to and putting the lyrics in your head?)

doing fasts , putting the body through hardships in the name of penance or as a bargaining tool is mentally deficient activity because you are misusing the body Waheguru ji gave you as your vehicle in this plane of existence, besides what can you offer Waheguru ji which already wasn't owned and given by Him? Answer is your Love . Love and trust Waheguru totally and you not only will have sukh in this land but in the realm beyond. Just as putting sindoor on your parting will not do anything to lengthen your husband's lifespan , doing fasts or feasts changes nothing also , this is fokat karam (pointless/unrewarding actions) do Sewa of the poor , read gurbani, sing kirtan , listen Katha these will help you more in life . Cultivate santokh (contentment) within life by living in hukham, embrace sat (truth) by contemplating His qualities and japping nam

It's not Karva Chauth, it is called Sri Shiva Somvar vrat which is particularly taken during Shravan month. Mondays are sacred to him, and so it is the preferred day to do the vrat dedicated to him.

Akal Purakh made all days equally valuable ,there are not bad days   just wasted ones

Dhan so vela jit darshan karna

So it's a different fast festival, (actually watched the video without the volume to seem to get a somewhat understanding of what O.P was talking about). BTW, even without listening to the lyrics, note to O.P, listen to Kirtan and Gurbani before music, at the very least a little bit to start.

    • If relationship with Guru is strong, then kanga is done twice a day, and turban should never be taken off or put on like a hat, there is a lot wrong with that as it is against rehit! maryada is to take off every layer of turban/pagh/dumalla individually, and tie fresh turban each time!
    • the whole 'your husband/wife is chosen for you'/sanjog thing is real, it's just that a lot of people end up marrying the wrong person. they did not end up with the person that was meant for them. my friend, you should marry someone who you feel a connection with and love. there are millions of sikh girls, i'm sure you can find someone who aligns with your sensibilities and who you can truthfully say that you love. sikhi does not say anything against love marriages. you can also be in a loveless arranged marriage which is a safe option b/c both families are more inclined to keep the union intact. i was one of those people who was like meh, i guess i'll just get arranged to some sikh. well i finally started dating for the first time this year and i'm getting married to someone that i love and cannot even imagine leaving. i think it's better to have lost & lost than never loved at all. unfortunately, a lot of people confuse love w/ looks & lust. a lot of men go for the fittest girl they can find and think they won the jackpot or something. in reality, your partner should be like an extremely loved best friend. there's a reason why it's a fact that the most stable and long-lasting relationships started as friendships.  i also think a lot of women are petty and divorce over small reasons, but there's other terrible things like high cheating rates as well. that's why the divorce rate in the west is high. be careful out there.
    • andrew tate praises sikhi too & likes sikhs. his brother also donated to sikh families iirc. they just like any "alpha" religion and tbh islam is the most "alpha" in their eyes. islam is very good at promoting that image. but imo a real alpha man doesn't command respect by beating up his wive(s) or forcing them to wear a burqa. a real man will have his woman listen to him w/o raising a hand or his voice, and command respect by being respectful. he leads by example and integrity. that's true masculinity. you get the idea. + yes, it's definitely true that islam is growing rapidly and making massive inroads. strength in numbers + belief will do that. but rlly it's just because of the birth rate. a lot of them are muslim b/c it's their "identity" just like how a lot of young sikhs will say they're "culturally sikh" or whatever. there just aren't billions of sikhs who lambast their identity everywhere and have strict and linear rules like in islam. besides, the reality is that islam and its followers are some of the most morally bankrupt. you can see all the weird trans rules in iran, bacche baazi in afghanistan, visiting brothels, watching p*rn, p*dophilia what goes on behind the scenes in countries like uae & qatar, etc, and come to your conclusions. you can google all the stats yourself and see which countries do the most of these ^.   
    • stop associating with hinduism, that's the absolutely worst thing you can do as a sikh. not sure if you noticed but the entire world looks down upon and spits at india & hindus, literally no one respects them and considers them weak and cowardly. literally 1+ billion of them but not perceived as a strong religion commandeering respect. 
    • you wrote a whole lot but told us nothing. what exactly did you do wrong to make you feel this way?
