forgive me, cuz i'm not trying to foster inequality here, but i'm gonna try to parrallel this news (and it's good news in my eyes) to other areas....

in fact, i'll simply narrow it down to an open ended question, which i'm sure people will make their own assumptions from (which is a good thing in this case)

does this mean it's okay for sikhi to "adjust with the times" in some areas than in others??

after all, this isn't an old idea being brought back to the forefront... this is in fact a brand new..novel idea, of having singhnees doing keertan in Darbar Sahib, Amritsar.

so again.... is the idea of "moving with the times" a selective idea?

Well I think that what we gotta remember is that Sikhi is a religion, but culture intertwines in everything we do.

Its not Sikhism that is changing... the teachings of our Gurus are the same, but the culture is finally beginning to catch up to it!

Now all we need to see is the return of Raag keertan with traditional instrument from Guroos times, such as Saranda, sarangi, taus, dilruba, etc. wouldnt it be cool

THis is WICKEEEDD :@:@:@

I've been told that in the 1920's in the masand rule, Women (for obvious reasons) weren't aloud to do Kirtan di seva (because WOmen were trated very badly, a way i can not even describe :wub:... please listne to the katha called 'SAka Nakana Sahib by BHai Pinderpal SIngh ji on gurmatveechar.com for more info), and other Sevas in the Gurdwaras, so it's jus been the way that these 'new people' havn't been bothered to chang eit and didn't wish to either.

so from what ive' heard prior to 1920's SInghnees were aloud to do Kirtan there - infact NOT a new thing .

this is very good news :@:@:@:@

:nihungsmile: :e: :T:

pyare veer japman singh jee

this is not sikhs moving with the times

this is the SGPC catching up to the wishes of the panth for the last 100 years

they are still 100 years behind

you know when you go to get a driver's license they send it to you in the mail in a few days?

if you get a passport made it takes a week or two?

if you apply for immigration to a new country it can take months or years?

Gursikh Women have been demanding equal rights in Darbar Sahib for many years. Mahants, Narakdharis, Kookas, and RSS, and our own sheep in Lion's clothing Sikhs are the ones responsible for the delay in making this happen.

We're not moving with the times we're catching up to what should have been done a long time ago.

It seems SGPC has the longest turnover rate, more than any agency or bureaucracy out there.

please forgive my mistakes

    • 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.
