Is homosexuality a mental illness?

[mahandulai]

I would love to know your thoughts, on why homosexuality is deemed not normal in Sikhi (are they allowed to take amrit?)

**Is it just a mental illness? And can people be turn heterosexual via paat and naam simran, or is it allowed via God or I dont know how to phrase this question properly?

homosexuality like other innate aspects of an individuality is a fruit of previous life's karams. And no gays can't change to heterosexuals. It is not possible ! Sexual orientation is decided before birth. So no gay person ever made a choice to be gay, it was selected for them before birth . 

Its not a mental illness , but homos tend to have brain wiring typical of opposite sex. 

I am gay.

I am beginning to think a certain member by the name of mister. Is also a homo or bi. Judging by the amount he likes to talk about the whole homo issues and the amount of time he chats with ajeet

I think former homosexuals are really just bisexuals who changed their emphasis. Regardless kaam is kaam and Naam is the cure.

Is homosexuality a mental illness?   

  I don't know...….But, if a "mental illness" is about Mind, then yes, we all have diseases of  mind. Gurbani tells us that this life is all about the mann. The mann is what we have to win over and conquer. The mann is what leads to our actions and karams, via the feelings and emotions it expresses.  ….it's ALL about the mann and we have to find the jyot through it via japna since "mann tu jot saroop hai"

However, if mental illness is about brain neurochemical deficiencies or imbalances, then it is a brain chemistry thing that can be corrected with psychiatric meds. It's a biological and physiological issue.  I'm pretty sure there haven't been  reports of brain chemicals that can cause gay orientation, because if there were, then we would have people being treated in psychiatric units.
