I'm sure someone will not be wearing shirt and tie if they are wearing bana. So your argument is nonsense again. 

Besides, where will Singh store shastars with shirt and tie?

So if he goes to office interview he should go in a chola? Doesn't mk sense. 

Is wearing pants or pajama forbidden  in Sikhism . Where is it written kachhera shudnt be covered

Was thinking about this the other day. More and more women are wearing short skirts to the gurdwara with bare legs. It's kind of uncomfortable when they are bending over and doing matha tek in front of you I just end up standing 3 meters behind them and once shes gone then I walk forward and do matha tek. It's even more uncomfortable when there is a lot of sangat at gurdwara and you have some girl in a short skirt bending over in front of you, it's like what do I do? Do I walk walk forward and matha tek or do I just look down and wait for her to go. Lol  especially when there are elders sitting in sangat too. 

Recently I saw this girl wearing a skirt and one of those tops that slip of your shoulders. But then again there is no dress code in the gurdwara other than shoes off and heads covered.

But surely if you've got your head covered out of respect you should cover the rest of yourself out of respect too! It doesn't really make sense otherwise.

I don't think there is any dress code in sikhi in general though, but then where do you draw the line?

Well, you gotta ask yourself. Do you consider man and woman to be equal? If so, then if you can wear shorts to the Gurdwara should women also be allowed to wear shorts or not? rolleyes.gif

Sure, people say "What are you talking about?" "That's insane!". But if our Gurus gave both men and women equal status in society and in practising religion, then why not?

Here's the thing, people say "Oh, if women wear shorts to the Gurdwara, then it creates kaam for men". Well, don't you think its the same for women? :T: If you wear shorts, they will also be distracted to look at you, and if you got a fit body, they would get kaam as well.

So it all depends on the individual, let me kno what you guys think? Bhul chuk maaf karnee!!

Daas,

Daljeet Singh

I must agree! Also 3rd Guru Sahib stated "Learn to control where/ what your eyes are staring at..." Ehna simple hukam we kithna aukha aa ?

basically the same silly girls if invited to see the Queen at buckingham palace would be wearing a posh suit, lengha or longer length dress to look elegant and classy ....just goes to show the mentality towards Guru ji ,' it's not like there's a person/ King  but a book so why bother'

This girl from another religion told me that one should become an ambassador of God in a world where godless-ness is fast spreading, So it's important to dress modestly to represent your faith and respect for God.

I think ones outfit is an expression of who they are. If one feels like a s1ut then they will dress like a s1ut be it in the gurdwara or the high street. 

It's ones choice if they want to represent their faith and respect for God and dress modestly or if one wants to be an ambassador of s1uts and dress like a s1ut

Near London. I go gurdwara like 3 or 4 times a week so I see all sorts. Now and then you see females wearing skirts with bare legs, tops slipping of their shoulders..

Once in the langar hall I saw this s1ut with blonde bleached hair wearing a short t shirt with most of her lower back showing, you could also see the trashy tattoo above her bum.

They basically s1uts who are going to breed and raise the future generation of s1uts. 

Back in school there used to be this Punjabi girl who used to go to the gurdwara langar hall and skive, she used bring along her hijab wearing paki friends too.    Not many females take gurdware seriously.

To be honest you shouldn't paint people with the same brush, some people just dress that but does not make them what you say.

Totally against them doing it in a Gudwara, just a quick question, have you ever approached one of these girls and asked them why they feel the need to dress that way?

They might be feeling very insecure about themselves.

    • 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.
