[QUOTE="JimRinX, post: 111125, member: 6872"] SPN jis I learned a long time ago (In an American High School, in fact) that there are two broadly different types of People; Those who will mutilate their bodies with apencil eraser, and those who won't do so. (My English Comp Prof. busted out laughing when he read this at the start of one of my essay projects!). It's all just a Fad - a thing to make girls (but not [I]fully[/I] [I]mature[/I] [I]women[/I]!) think that they should 'like you' more than that wussy who won't HARM HIMSELF! All a sign of the degeneration that occurs now that all of the Challenges - which once brought out our best - have been beaten back; now that all of the Frontiers have been conquered. Your Body and Soul ARE seperate, Sikh friends; and any of the things that you might do to your Body only have an effect upon your Soul through the KARMA of such actions. Although I appreciate your adherence to a Noble Tradition that, at least at one time, displayed your loyalties in a bold manner during an age when that was of the utmost importance, I KNOW that The Great Formless One isn't going to penalize those of you who cut your hair or beard! What's important is, if you do do so, that the Karma of the act - the motive behind it - be 'pure'; not whether you break a promise that Guru Gobind Singh would probably - in this day and age, and for the kinds of very modern reasons that a Sikh might have for needing to trim things down a bit - gladly excuse you from. After all, if trimming ones hairs is truly a 'needful thing' for a Sikh to do, then Guru Gobind Singh would be generating BAD KARMA by insisting that you continue to do so! You don't think that, of all people, a Sikh Guru would generate BAD Karma in such a manner, for such a reason, do you? I was just reading the 'Christian Watch' thread; and, in it, Satyaban ji talks about the evils of Fundamentalism - and the evil things that fanatics who espouse such philosophies do to all of us; and, while I certainly don't mean to be rude by questioning such a Noble Tradition (look at my Profile Photo - I haven't cut that Hair since it was taken 3 years ago! It would be even longer, but I had to have Brain Surgery!), sometimes it seems to me that you're in danger of having the Fanatics amongst the Sikhi turn these kinds of Fundamental Issues into an excuse to HATE those who aren't as 'Pure' (in their opinion!) in their adherence to the 5K's!:yes: Please watch out for this, Friends! The Sikhi are one of the most Noble and True to God People on Earth! I don't want to see you generating all this Bad Karma over something of so little consequence, in Gods eyes! You'd be turning a Noble tradition into an IGnoble excuse to behaive in a DIVISIVE MANNER!!! [/QUOTE]
