[QUOTE="sukritkaur, post: 158905, member: 16999"] Gyani Jarnail Singh. I agree with you on the fact that Sehajdhari Sikhs and Amritdhari Sikhs need to work together however over the years both have established their own seperate communites and neither is willing to address the growing divide. I am a girl who has kept her kesh, ocassionally does path, often researches about the panth. When I go to the local gurdwaras for Naam Simran and sit in the Sangat, I feel as though I'm not even acknowledged by the Amritdhari girls there, they seem indifferent to me and the fact that I've come to the Gurdwara for the same reason as them: to listen to gurbani, bow to and experience the SGGS jI, and be a part of the sadh sangat. In my area it's even gotten as bad as girls who wear dastars do not speak to girls who although also amritdhari just choose to cover their heads with patkes ! This really is madness, if I feel as comfortable as I do, one can only imagine how our monay brothers and sisters feel when they walk through the Gurughar. No wonder they seek out the deras of theses fake Babas, firstly its because they're uneducated but also because they don't feel welcome at the Gurdwaras.
