Decide for yourself.

Sikhs are supposed to be vegetarian. So most makeup.is made from animal products. Tho there are mineral and vegan makeups now.

Sikhs are supposed to keep their hair long and uncut. Because we keep our body as was given to us by God. To follow hukam. Does make up allow one to be natural?

Alot of ppl say sikhs are supposed to be saint-soldiers or activist-devotees.

But i think we forget sikhs are supposed to be like monk-householders. Thats another reason we keep our hair. As all spiritual seekers, rishi, munis, sants did. Our biggest goal should be to meditate and meet waheguruji. The household part should come as 2nd. Only to support ourselves. But we have made it our primary concern. 

You can go to sikhitothemax and search beauty or jewelry or shingaar or adornments to see what gurbani says about this. You can also take a hukamnama.

In order to come up with ur own understanding. Tho most sikhs and rehit do say, no jewelry or makeup

I don't think theres anything wrong with that, I mean everyone wants to look nice. What about all the young Singhs that wear all those Nike, Adidas hoodies and trainers and branded clothes etc  they obviously wear them to look nice. Iv seen some old paintings of nihungs and their wives are wearing jewelry

Is it wrong for sikh amritdhari women to wear makeup and jewellery (without going over the top of course)? 

How can you even think of wearin make once you have done Amrit shak? Next you will want to know if you can wear shorts or like men. If not shorts then skirts like gora womens. I think you can wear both but for make up you must think hard.

No

We're free to do what we want. Guru Gobind Ji dressed like a prince. Gurbani says we can do what we want with our looks, it changes nothing.

wrong you are not free to do whatever you want ...there is a rehit for amritdhari people and a mentality that you are supposed to cultivate santokh and nimrata ...santokh or contentment can only come if you accept yourself as is , and recognise that Guru Pita ji loves you as he made you . Be humble by not tying your happiness to your appearence , beauty fades as it is temporary whereas the beauty of the gurmukh soul is forever ...choose the target of your shingar wisely

I think gurbani tells us to dress modestly and in a way that doesn't attract wrong attention, so there are restrictions

      Islam has become Redpilled in the West...Everyone is converting to Islam

      By BhForce · Posted

      So, are you saying Guru ji isn't God? Or are you saying the British encouraged this belief?

      Amritsar and Punjab: left out of the New Silk road

      By BhForce · Posted

      Part of the problem is the hostilities between India and Pakistan. If the border were open, Amritsar would easily become a huge trading city. Secondly, the National Highways Authority of India is constructing a new 6-lane expressway from Kashmir, through Amritsar/Jalandhar/Ludhiana to Dehli which will be part of the Ludhiana-Delhi-Kolkatta Industrial Corridor.  Maps of the New Silk Road show Kolkata as a key part of the "road". The Punjab to Kolkata expressway and rail connections will fulfill the ability to hook up to the New Silk Road.  In addition, while crossing to Pakistan via AH1 (Asian Highway 1) is difficult, India does connect to AH1 on the other side, towards the East. Finally, Punjab can trade with the world via Mundra port in Gujurat. Rail to Mundra, then sea onwards. Dubai is very close with a free port. If you send products to Iran, there are ground links onward to Europe.

      Child marriage questions

      By BhForce · Posted

      Yeah, that's one possibility. Another I initially thought is that it's a Muslim trying to gather info. But then, you might ask, how does he know about Sikh textual sources. Well, you'd be surprised at their resourcefulness. A final possibility is he's a weak Sikh who was asked a question by a non-Sikh and now he's suddenly feverishly wondering where it's "written" that you can't marry a young child. To the latter, I would say, you're looking in the wrong spot. Gurbani isn't a 1428 page rulebook, like Leviticus or the Vedas: ਸਿਮ੍ਰਿਤਿ ਸਾਸਤ੍ਰ ਪੁੰਨ ਪਾਪ ਬੀਚਾਰਦੇ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ॥ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ਗੁਰੂ ਬਾਝਹੁ ਤਤੈ ਸਾਰ ਨ ਜਾਣੀ ॥ The Simritis and Shastras discriminate between charity and sin, but know not the essence of the Real Thing. Without the Guru, they know not the essence of the Reality, know not the essence of the Reality. Anand Sahib.

      Starched Turbans - Topi Or Not Topi

      By BhForce · Posted

      You're confusing two different things: One is merely adding starch to a turban to get a certain feel to the fabric. The other is tying your turban once and taking it off like a hat. It is this that people have a problem with. What's wrong with it is that Rehit says to tie your turban afresh every time. If you ask, "Where is that written?", it's written in Bhai Nand Lal ji's Rehitnama. @ipledgeblue didn't just make it up. Umm, no, bro. We're not evangelical Christians like President George W Bush of the US claiming to "talk to God" who told him to invade Iraq. "Speaking to him directly" basically ends up being doing whatever you feel like with the excuse that Guru ji told you to do it. If you still want to take your turban off like a hat, feel free to do so, but don't claim that it's Rehit.

      You don't need to wear either a pag or dumalla in the gym. You can simply wear a meter or 1.5m small turban (gol pagg or round turban). It doesn't come off.
