[QUOTE="Gyani Jarnail Singh, post: 97269, member: 189"] Dear All, My humble opinion on these Abstracts...and personal experiences !! 1. At first glance and superficial reading...it does look as if the author is advocating Abandoning the 5 Kakaars...anti kesh and all that....BUT is that really the case? Maybe and maybe not..ONLy the author and Akal Purakh knows whats in his heart...BUT I managed to CONVINCE some Youths who had cut hair, saw absolutley no need for the Kirpan...and the other 5 kakaars as well...THROUGH THE USE OF THESE SAME ABSTRACTS. I had in my posession various Tracts and pamphlets published in FAVOUR of HAIR/KESH..arguing on variosu aspects like Kesh is good for health..Vitamin D..scientific facts...and finally that Kesh Kakaars are a Godlen Gift from our Guru Ji..etc etc. These people were not convinced. What did the trick ..so to speak....these Abstracts !! I applied what is called REVERSE ENGINEERING....and the Gurbani quoted in these Abstracts actually solved the dilemma of choice facing these wayward youths..and..NOW these seven youths are proud 5 kakaree KHALSAS.. The Choice is... INSIDE KHALSA first or OUTSIDE KHALSA first. Many of us overzealously push for the OUTSIDE SROOP First...Take Khandeh dee Pahul FIRST..and then "talk"...but then first of all we TERRIFY them by saying..This will break your Amrit..that will break Amrit..you cannot do this..you cant do THAT....so many black and white RULES....and the poor fellow says..OK..I get it..Amrit is damn hard..and I am NOT READY...and I can bet he/she will never be READY. Guur Nanak ji stressed on the INSIDE....and the other Gurus followed suit for the next 200 years or so...and then FINALLY Guur Gobind Singh Ji saw the Khalsa READY for the OUTER SROOP...and made the Amrit mandatory to the KHALSA who are READY. Nearly 20,000 at Anandpur Sahib in 1699 were READY..and the rest..60,000 were NOT READY. But the important thing is Guru Ji DIDNT CHASE THOSE AWAY....they remained just as honourably as BEFORE the Amrit Ceremony !! 2.

What the CSS dont realise is that MOST of those css who call themsleves SIKHS..not only have no "outer Sroop"...they DONT HAVE much SIKHI too..as they DONT know GURMUKHI..Cannot communicate in Punjabi...and their GURU....most of them are also SIKH just because they were BORN to Sikhs..their NEXT Generation are even LESS SIKHS as time goes along....going to Gurdwara and looking for the "Gyani ji" forevery small task...is commonplace for them...just so the "gyani Ji" can handle everything..is fine with them....some one died..quick phone the Gurdwara and ask the Gyani ji..what to do....want to do an "akhand paath"..ask the Gyani lah..he will handle everything..blah blah blah..what SIKHI is THAT ??

These are soem of the Khamian..shortcomings among us..that are leading towards decline..we cna arrest this decline and reverse the trends...IF WE sincerely FOLLOW GURBANI in word and deed.
