Hello so I’m after some advice the beard that a Sikh male has can it be trimmed to keep it tidy.  Also the knife they carry does it have to be with them at all times (example if they were in the military). And also the undergarment they wear does it have to be worn at all times.

1. To keep your beard tidy, assuming you leave it Flowing and not tied, you can use Beard balm.

If you are in military, you can always tie your beard, with hair spray or you can even use a BEARD JAALI. Any veteren sikh soldier can tell you abt that.

2. The purpose of knife that a sikh carries is basically to defend themselves. If you are in military then you prolly gonna have weapons on your body so no worries. 

The reason it was provided was because there was a constant threat to the sikhs by neighbor powers and thus Guru sahib Told sikhs to always carry a KIRPAN. To protect themselves.

3. You can use any undergarment you want. Again, it was provided because sikhs were going to fight on battlefields and ride horses. And a DHOTTI wouldn't be much help.

So in my opinion, With undergarments, its more like Guru sahib made sikhs of that time more Gentlemen, rather than finding spirituality in a PIECE OF CLOTH.

Trimming beard is not allowed for Amritdharis.

Rather we wash it everyday and comb it.

    • 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.
