[QUOTE="CaramelChocolate, post: 142876, member: 228"] If the following were good enough for the Gurus to contribute to the Guru Granth Sahib, then why do Sikhs take such a strong stance against hair cutters? : Kabir, Namdev, Ravidas, Sheikh Farid, Trilochan, Dhanna, Beni, Sheikh Bhikan, Jaidev, Surdas, Parmanand, Pipa, Ramanand Sadhna: 1 hymn [COLOR=red][B][I]A butcher by profession[/I][/B][/COLOR], Bhagat Sadhana was born in Sind. His piety and meditation of God elevated him to saintly status. He was condemned by Brahmins and on a false charge was arrested and buried alive. Sain: 1 hymn Bhagat Sain [B][I][COLOR=red]was a barber[/COLOR][/I][/B] of the royal court of Raja Ram, king of Rewa. He was a follower of Bhagat Ramanand and Bhagat Kabir. [U]The Bhatts [/U]Kal, Kalsahar, Tal, Jalap, Jal, Kirat, Sal, Bhal, Nal, Bhikha, Jalan, Das, Gayand, Sewak, Mathura, Bal, Harbans Personally I would agree with a more basic definition of a Sikh - one who strives for God. I agree that in the greater scheme of things prostitution is WRONG and if one is searching for God, one would abandon this, in the same way that cutting the hair is about physical appearance and changing onself from the way we are made... but for goodness sake... who is to say what is in a person's heart? Why is their SUCH A BIG emphasis on APPEARANCE? One can appear like the holiest person in the world, and still have a DIRTY HEART! ਬੰਕੇ ਬਾਲ ਪਾਗ ਸਿਰਿ ਡੇਰੀ ॥ You make your hair beautiful, and wear a stylish turban on your head. ਇਹੁ ਤਨੁ ਹੋਇਗੋ ਭਸਮ ਕੀ ਢੇਰੀ ॥੩॥ But in the end, this body shall be reduced to a pile of ashes. ||3|| - 659 ਮਨ ਰੇ ਨਿਜ ਘਰਿ ਵਾਸਾ ਹੋਇ ॥ O mind, dwell in the balanced state of your own inner being. ਰਾਮ ਨਾਮੁ ਸਾਲਾਹਿ ਤੂ ਫਿਰਿ ਆਵਣ ਜਾਣੁ ਨ ਹੋਇ ॥੧॥ ਰਹਾਉ ॥ Praise the Lord's Name, and you shall no longer come and go in reincarnation. ||1||Pause|| - 1477 [/QUOTE]
