Quick psychology test Randip: what time do you typically wake up in the morning?Around? Doesnt have to be exact, because it supposedly, tells you alot about a person, so I was wondering if you answer that question for me...

 

Also, you insulted a lot of people when you claimed that those I listed as vegetarian sikhs as "extremists" or "radicals"... why do you believe that the most respected granthi`s in the world and religious leaders are radical?

 

None of your quotations explicity allows meat, and everytime I supply a quote, you say its mis-translated, Im getting these quotes from the version they sell at Harimandir sahib, and comparing it with onlines. Your quotes are not in this version. I have versions of the harimandir sahib guru granth sahib ji because naam jaap there very summer..Its a constant battle between my quotes verses yours and you just claim radical and its never viable... You should go back to my insults, some of them are kick you in the crotch halirious...

If you are a sikh, then you believe in the Guru Granth Sahib Ji. The Rehat Maryada is not mandatory to follow. Like I posted:

 

Guru Gobind Singh Ji verbally explained the Rehat Maryada on Baisakhi Day of 1699, when the Khalsa was initially founded. We do not have a complete set of systematically written directions regarding the Rehat Maryada from him. Of course, many Sikhs, some contemporaries of the Guru and others descendent of those who attended the Guru, have written their observations and instructions regarding the conduct to be practiced by the Khalsa. When these writings are compared, they contradict each other (both directly and by omission). In a few cases, the instructions go against the principles of Gurmat (permanently recorded and authenticated Gurbani in Sri Guru Granth Sahib). Sikh scholars, therefore, realized that some sections of the Rehat Namas were not written by the persons whose names are associated with those writings. They were modified later on.

Hence, when the Rehat was explained to new members of the Khalsa during later Amrit ceremonies, changes were unintentionally made to the spoken instructions originally given by Guru Gobind Singh Ji. A popular school exercise demonstrates that even if one were to whisper a sentence from person to person within a single classroom, by the time the message reaches the last person, it is completely changed from the original. In the specific case of the Rehat Maryada, each new Amritdhari had to learn and repeat not just a sentence, but a philosophy and a way of life. This easily resulted in people creating their own interpretations of the message, even when attempts were made not to do so. One can only imagine the changes which took place when some people tried to create a Maryada "better and holier" than the one practiced by other Sikhs

 

It is subjective, and the only way is to justify it with the guru granth sahib maharaj ji. There is not ONE place or quote, that allows meat eating, so when you justify it, and all other meat eaters, it is of personal perference, and a sin that nobody can forgive you.

Also, whats your favourite place to jaap? How often do you jaap..
