This is said to be the most authentic painting of Guru Gobind Singh Ji. It’s said that Mai Bhago painted/commissioned this painting and it’s kept in the puratan saroop of Sri Sarbloh Granth at Sri Hazur Sahib Nanded.

More often it seems you see Guru Gobind Singh Ji Maharaja sitting lotus but he's sitting seiza there. 

What are the Guri or Punjabi words for "lotus" and "seiza"?

I think seiza pose is Vajrasana and lotus is Padmasana

Exactly the one I was looking for.

Actually I've seen a few pictures of Guru Gobind Singh ji with tilak and earrings.  I've also seen his census entry describing himself as a Hindu Khatri.  From other information I've read, it was the British who deemed the Adi Granth as the Guru as they didn't want another living Guru to expand and eventually challenge them by recruiting more Hindus against them and overthrowing them.  So they wanted a way to create a divide and went about it in a very systematic way and eventually achieved their ends.  The Nirankaris were in dispute with them as they believed that GGS ji had retained the Guruship and not died in 1708, and produced various evidences as proof which they got discredited.   

As for the wearing of earrings, it is in the Hindu teachings that piercings are beneficial for extra sensitivity as these were carried out in acupressure regions.  The same for having tilak (protect pineal gland) and toe rings for married women.  So have a scientific basis.

As for marrying within the Gotra regardless of religion, this was all changed by the Brits to make strict classifications so that they could decide on how to organise and control the masses, as has been reported by the BBC as well as extensively researched.

 

I think if the Gurgradi or Joti had passed to a person, as some say, it would have been obvious and would still be obvious.

    • 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.
