[QUOTE="Gyani Jarnail Singh, post: 5237, member: 189"] Waheguru Ji ka Khalsa Waheguru ji Ki fateh. The GURUS all married and had a householder's life because this was according to the GURMATT PHILOSOPHY advocated by GURU NANAK Ji . The Only GURU who didnt marry was the Child-Guru HarKrishan Ji. The GURUS not only had happy married lives, some like Guru Hargobind Ji had more children than normal...and I dont think this interefered in any way with their Bhagtee/sewa/saving of humanity. Guru nanak ji knew that He would be Travelling the WORLD, leaving his Family to fend for themsleves during His LONG Absences....YET GURU Ji also MARRIED and had a Family. Guru Ji ddint for a moment think: my family will interefer in my sewa/bhagtee. Gurbani at any place DOES NOT SAY or even "encourage" CELIBACY. On the Contrary.....CELIBACY as a means of Bhagtee /sewa is CONDEMNED in many places by Bhagats as well as GURU Sahibaans. IF any one can Quote me a Single Line of Gurbani that advocates/encourages/promotes CELIBACY as a means of sewa/bhagtee/ etc I will be thankful. [b][u]Guru Gobind Sinmgh ji in His bani also concurs with gurbani that Celibacy is a Complete waste of Time[/u][/b]. For an "institution" like nanaksar that Places so much "importance on GURU NANAK" to the exclusion of other GURUS. [b]a policy that CONTRAVENES GURMATT like CELIBACY !!! is beyond me. And secondly for an institution that "loves" GURU NANAK ji "so much"..its leaders should FOLLOW GURU NANAK JI as a Role Model...and that includes MARRIED LIFE.[/b] Regarding the "speed" of Akhand Paaths..this is not a genaralisation..anybody who "knows" even a little bit or has seen an akhand paath going on will tell you that SPEED is of the essence, the Paathi taking over MUST NOT MISS a SINGLE ALPHABET...and FAST and SUPER FAST Pathis are the NORM.
