Guru Gobind Singh Ji...and earlier GURU NANAK JI shaib never INTENDED the KHALSA to be a Army of ROBOTS. "we" created this army of robots so that vested interests can REMOTE CONTROL....

WE..refers to the Mughals who torured and hunted in order to recruit their robots..the British..using more subtle methods..like enrollment in army..jobs, titles, lands, jagirs, or hanging, jailing, torture etc...and now the same thing via different agencies..sgpc, takahst, badals, rss, goi, bjp, etc etc etc...sants, babas, rs beas gurus, namdharees , cults like nanksarees, rarrewallahs etc etc...attempting to rope in as many keshadharee/monas/whatever "Sikhs" in their TENTS/Camps and handle them by REMOTE CONTROL....the Beas Remote Control controls so many lakh votes..the Sauda Saadh RC has so many premi votes...and so on...some move when the Akal Takhat jathedars finger presses his REMOTE..the cry rises Akal takhat Mahaan hai..REMOTE CONTROL ton aee awaaz..channel change kardo...and so on..we have becoem robots..watching dishtv...videocon..suntv..kiseh te dish swaar hai..kisseh nu con chnaggah lagdah hai..koi tatatv de gunn gayee jandah hai koi zee zee zee karda firdah hai..sabh de sabh ROBOT hann..GURU DE SIKH bahut Ghatt hann...

Re: Why are we not allowed to cut hair when it's ok to cut nails, since both are created by God?

All Khalsa soldiers are controlled by Guru and Gurmat. But it is hard to come to it.

I have been doing Sehaj Path. I do like 15-20 Ang per day. Trust me, it is like small shackles are breaking up within me. The hate and anger is gone. Guru is replacing it all with Pyar and Acceptance. It is really magic. Though it is something different that I wake up with more hate again. I think once I will break of this cycle. I think doing Sehaj Path before sleeping helps. It undoes what damage has been done to your psyche in the day.

I personally feel we should do complete Path of Guru Granth Sahib once at least in our life. Let our Sikhya and Guru's set of instructions for us, be not left incomplete!

That is very nice to hear and I agree that we should all make attempts to do it. Whatever one can do in the time they have is totally acceptable.
I know exactly what you mean about feeling a better person within yourself. The love you feel for everything is infact undescribable and you begin to appreciate that every breath you breathe should not be wasted.

I'm sure you will continue to do this throughout your life as there is never not enough or too much. Once a person completes it, then it feels like a huge void and quite sad, this 'lost' feeling encourages one to do it again!!
I do believe that the words of the Guru can do something quite magical and uplifting.

Re: Why are we not allowed to cut hair when it's ok to cut nails, since both are created by God?

It is as per SRM !! A SIKH should keep one sehaj paath going on continuously...thats real Naam japp...read..contemplate..understand..IMPLEMENT..s ee the resultant CHANGES...human to DEVTA !! Thats what the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji is FOR....

a spanner is for..turning NUTS...tighten them or loosen them...BUT if someone uses his spanner to....."Throw a spanner in the works.."...its Gross Misconduct...similarly IF a Sikh uses the Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji as a paper weight...idol...covered in rumallahs..sukhasan..air conned room..fresh flowers, perfumes etc etc BUT Never reads..opens..follows..then its Gross MISCONDUCT...MISUSE of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji...GHOR BEADBI...Human becomes INHUMAN...invents fake tall tales of how he fasted..and forced Guru nanak ji to come out of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji and eat his food..wah wah...as IF Guru is in PRISON of Paper !!!..hungry and cold..or sweating in summer and needs air cons....how stupid can we be ??? apparently only Guru nanak ji walked out..why the other NINE Gurus remained INSIDE is a mystery only that Mahapurash (Khasmeh kreh beraberi) knows...or maybe IF Guru Hargobind ji and Guru Gobind singh Ji Guru har rai ji a re also in there..then GRASS also needs to be brought and placed in front of Sri Guru Granth Sahib Ji..just in case these Gurus come out on HORSES..then what will the Horses eat ??..so easy way out,...Confine Grimms Fairy talke to Guru nanak..safest that way...icecreammundaicecreammundaicecreammundaicecr eammundaicecreammunda
Reference:: Sikh Philosophy Network http://www.sikhphilosophy.net/showthread.php?t=32165

I was once "trapped" into becoming a Pyara..a member of FIVE "singhs" invited to a Sikh home for parshada..dinner in order to ward off evil sukh shanti etc..When we arrived..a mahabhart was going ON...apparently the one who invited us..wasnt at all much appreciated...one daughter in law threw the kheer pateela on the floor...another one threw the ice creams (five) out the window...finally peace was hastily restored....ceasefire...then firing broke out again..the one who had deliberately upset the kheer pateela noticed her name was LEFT OUT of the ardass...she kept insisting she was paying full attention..her name wasnt mentioned..everyone else said it was...what a CIRCUS...a child was sent out to buy another Five ice creams for dessert..he cmae back with four..having eaten one on the way...sent out again..hastily...i never laughed that much again....SUKH SHANTI...Parshaada for Five..No wonder..the house was a battlefield...no amount of Five eating parshadas could ever solve their war zone....this is SIKHI today...empty ritualsim...hoping FIVE gyanis eating will solve marital problems, daughter in alw problems...>>>???/

Even one line from Anand Sahib changes your perspective about the world:

ਏਹੁ ਕੁਟੰਬੁ ਤੂ ਜਿ ਦੇਖਦਾ ਚਲੈ ਨਾਹੀ ਤੇਰੈ ਨਾਲੇ ॥
ayhu kutamb too je daykh-daa chalai naahee tayrai naalay.
This family which you see shall not go along with you.

And when you read the treasure of Gurbani, on each Ang you read a theme which can touch you like anything. It is so inspiring that your heart calls out to Gurbani and you read louder and louder in a merry state.

Yes I am sure that once I reach Ang 1430, I would go back to Ang 1

You know in software world, some test team people will cry saying there is no DEFINED CAREER GROWTH PATH for them. When it comes to Sikhi, Guru Sahib has shown us a very clear path. But no Sikh would like to follow it! We would like STATUS QUO! We have so many tools of liberation!

That is just like giving food to 10 pandits was known to solve health problems. But it has been proven to be false.

On side note, Gyaniji you could have met the family separately and given them Gurmat counselling. What's wrong in a try?

If you wish to breed Sikh robots, all following orders, that is up to you, I myself would prefer a conveyor belt with Sikhs at various stages, but where each stage is understood and practiced, the hair comes from love, not orders
You are right.... Hairs wud come with love & not with orders BUT ..... If someone have love with his Guru he'l love his order as well !!

There is a saying, 'first do no wrong', the principle being that doing nothing is better than doing the wrong thing. If one were to love the order of the Guru, than I would take that as being the same as love, period.

Orders are different, orders are what certain people live their life by, they know what to do, when to do it and how it is to be done, but they understand nothing, because there is no wisdom, no learning, no application, just a firm belief that if orders are carried out, everything will be ok.

If I may say so, you seem to represent the latter. Your firm belief that the DG was written by the Tenth Master is, in my view, validates this. All you seem able to see is Tenth Guru+some writings=DG. I do not believe you are digging deep enough, you seem happy to accept very weak surface explanations without listening to your heart. Would the Tenth Master really have either written, or agreed to have such filth next to his own works. The sad fact of the matter is that the answer is so glaringly obvious, I take even questioning it as a bigger shameful action.

No Sikh Guru that I am aware of forced anyone to accept anything, ours is not a religion of forced ritual or orders, it is a religion of Love, and everything that is done, is done out of Love.

It has to be that way, otherwise we would end up chasing dreams like everyone else, instead we chase the truth, our only friend being Love, that is what the Gurus were full of, and that is the spirit in which they would want us to proceed.

I disagree with your stance on the DG, you think all Monas are sick, which stance is within Sikhi? Which stance stands for everything that is wrong with Sikhi?

If I am mistaken, then I am depriving myself of valuable assistance along the road by not having a full head of hair, however, if you are mistaken, you could be chasing ghosts for years

First do no wrong............
