[QUOTE="S|kH, post: 12864, member: 217"] Actually, they are running away from the physical appearance because of SOCIAL pressure, not because of what they feel inside. Hence, with the recent crisis of post 9/11 and the semi-recent events of 1984, the Sikh identity has come to the forefront of Sikh issues that we must address. That is WHY we make it seem like its the most important thing, because in this state of crisis, it is. So then, why not argue with the Panj Pyare that they are making you feel unwanted when they only give the Amrit Sanchaar ceremony to people who keep the outwardly 5 K's, and that they THINK are also pure on the inside? The 5 K's were meant as a standardized test, so that one could view pure action which often leads to pure thought. There's nothing that someone can say that will prove you otherwise? Please, do try to take amrit at the next amrit sanchaar ceremony, and let us all know how it goes. Let us know if the Panj Pyare, the people who were GIFTED by Guru Gobind as equals think you have pure action and thought and are ready to join. What you have, is in your inside, pure thought...that you think of God in a pure manner...but all that is, is just a philosophy. You must turn this love of God into action. I am sure you have a connection just as good as a Gursikh with our Guru, but it is our Gursikh that actually puts that love into action for all of humanity to see. We all have a philosophical connection with Guru/God, and most of the time its the same philosophical connection, but hardly any of us put those thoughts into action to help humanity in the way instructed and demonstrated by our Gurus. And that is what I am saying, it should be a choice...but up until they can make a rational choice, it must be the way of the Khalsa to raise them along Khalsa principles. This is part of the vow you make when you get married. Yet, we still have parents who cut their childs hair when there like 5?, or let their child cut his hair when he's 10. No, you raise him as a Khalsa, and let him choose at 18. This just doesn't make sense, because marriages happen like three times a year at most gurdwaras. Like Drkhalsa said, we ARE not talking about ENTERANCE to the Gurdwara, or praying, or being a part of "sangat". We are talking about VOWS made with the GURU in public, not in private, not in your "inside", but both in action and THOUGHT. -- In conclusion, no person should be allowed to make vows in public to our Guru infront of others, demonstrating commitment, or hold high seats of Sikh office unless they are both externally, and internally Sikh. Bibi Kaur was recently expelled because she was corrupt. [/QUOTE]
