[QUOTE="Sandeepc20, post: 48145, member: 3889"] Hi, I loved what everyone had to say so far about sikhsim and parental influences. You are all very right in your own way. To give my experience... I've changed my life from being just any good person out there to practicing a life of an Amritari with not so much help, support and influence from my family. My family consists of peaople who eat egg and meat, cut their hair and men who drink, but, all of them do believe in God and pray. My parents, who attend simrens atleast 3 times a week, for example, tell everyone to go to the Gurdwara and pray. It is i who chose to believe and follow that aslong as i am true from the heart, donate to the needy, pray, do simren, stay pure vegetarian, fight for truth and defend myself and others from harm I am with God. I think everyone learns about what is right or wrong, about respect and disrespect, about being fair from school and books if not from our parents or Guru Granth Sahib Ji. Indian culture may teach that guys have more rights than girls but I did not let that take over me because i learned about equality in school. It was after meeting and talking to people who are amritari that i learnt about amrit and the 5 K's, influencing me to add it to my way of living in order to meet with God. Therefore, recently, I have been praying trying to learn more about how i shoud act and think and keeping my hair so that i am not rejecting God from myself in anyway. However, I am always unsure about keeping my hair as I do not exactly understand the relationship between God, my hair and I. Perhaps by keeping hair I am accepting and not altering the way God has made me, and by cutting hair I am only under the influence of what others around me do. If that is the case then i can understand that others are an influence to me in such a way and therefore i may not have my mind attatched with God.
