Vaaheguroo Jee Ka Khalsa!

Vaaheguroo Jee Kee Fateh!!

I am aware that in sikhee, if an amritdhari singh/kaur commits an error, he/she is liable to get 'pesh' and retake amrit. However, what happens if that particular person continually commits kuraihts and uses the idea of retaking amrit as an excuse to commit these kuraihts?e.g. when confronted about the wrongdoings, the person-in-question simply says oh i can juz retake amrit and all my sins will be forgiven.

Doesn't that negate the purpose of amrit and being amritdharee? Isn't that person turning amrit into a license to commit wrongdoings? Whats the sangat's view on this?

hmm very deep topic though.. but good one.. never thought of this before.. :T:

Well i can say that today we take the meaning of "Amrit" in a very wrong direction..

e.g. when confronted about the wrongdoings, the person-in-question simply says oh i can juz retake amrit and all my sins will be forgiven.

I would say that it's pure ritual if one say.. "I will take amrit again so that my sins will be forgiven".. NO sins will be forgiven, he/she won't go that easy.. ONE has to follow the "Amrit" path seriously with pure heart.. If one follow amrit just to cleanse the sins of his/her life, then it's of no use.. One has to work hard for it.. It's like the ball and one has to work to go and fetch the ball.. ball ain't coming right to the person..

I agree with Vicky, that while you are amritdhari, you can't commit any sins, that's the whole purpose of taking amrit. By breaking certain rules, you've broken your promise to your Guru, and will get punished for it (depending on the circumstances of what you did).

If one follow amrit just to cleanse the sins of his/her life, then it's of no use.. One has to work hard for it..

Totally agree! wubb.gif If you take amrit, and say "oh i just took it to cleanse my sins, and if I do something wrong I will retake it", taking amrit is more of a promise, and a form of dedication to the almighty-waheguru!!

Bhul chuk maaf! ^_^

Bhai Sahib Randheer Singh jee has replied to this issue in Amrit Kalaa. Those people who think they can violate a rehit and then say "amrit is still inside me, no one can take it away" are fooling themselves. Amrit was given on the basis of certain conditions. Amrit loses its effect if rehit is broken or not followed.

But peshee is no joke either. Someone is only forgiven if they genuinely regret the mistake they made and will not do it again. If someone is peshed for same mistake again and again, there could be a point where Punj Pyaaray refuse to forgive it and send person away.

If someone makes a mistake in rehit, then it's best to pesh before the Punj Pyaaray who will tell how to avoid it in the future and how to make up for it

Yes I agree with this.. but with each round of amrit sanchaar, the 5piarehs administering amrit are bound to change. So there is the SLIGHT possibility that the person-in-question gets off scot-free with his mistakes. Isnt there???

On the other hand, what if the 5 piarehs are under the impression that the person-in-question is a good gursikh who duz lotza seva and daan and naam baanee OR are weary about bringing the person-in-question to justice ??? What happens then??

*no offense intended. im juz asking this in general terms only* Bhool chook maaf.

theres no need to bring worldly justice to a person who has done kurehits..

we all make mistakes.. but the court of law here is of the Supreme Lord Vaheguru's

HIS ways are unknown.. how God deals with the person is between God and the person..

saying the person gets out "Scot-Free" is silly talk.. we dont know that.. we dont know what the person wil go through.. so theres no need to judge them.. or hate them....

and we def. def. shouldnt condemn them..

the panj payare are Guru Roop.. but the ulitmate justice comes from vaheguru

as far as him taking advantage of Amrit.. or "breaking" his amrit.. well i dont agree with that.. Amrit doesnt break.. sikh breaks..

i hope i made sense

    • 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.
