Dear One,
I too fell in love with the form of the Khalsa that Guru Gobind Singh created and gave as a gift to human kind - but I have never felt guilty about this - nor is there any reason for you to feel guilty. When the Tenth Guru created the Khalsa he said we should stand out - the form of the Khalsa is quite beautiful and it is only natural that in our love of the Guru and the Guru's teachings we would want to emulate this form so that we too stand out to glorify the Guru's radiance.
