Waheguru Ji Ki Fateh
I am a usual sikh kuri. Not a amritdhari but but i have believe in God. I just want to ask u people that is love good in sikh religion cuz I love a guy very much even more then my life.I've been loving him since i came to America and he is my first and last love. He is amritdhari. He didn't touch me or we didn't go out anywhere alone together. Its just that i talk to him on phone and in school.I also asked many people this question but 75% people said it doesn't matter till u touch each other. and 25% people said it does cuz loveing opposite sex is against our religion.and someebody told me that u can about this site and i felt that i will get the right ans. I just request u people to give me a straight ans. And my main point is that we both will never leave each other and will never touch each other.Plzz reply me as soon as posible and plzz be sure that ur ans is correct cuz with ur ans i will take a different step in my life.
I hope u all understand my feeling and will coperate with me.

Greetings to you in the Name of God the light of every soul and in the Name of Guru the life of every Sikh.

Dear one, God is loving all His creation. When we live in love and devotion to the Creator and this creation we are living in God consciousness.

Your love is fine. Love for the divine within you is great. Love for the divine in all creation is what our Gurus have taught.

When you descibe your love, you say that you love this man more than you love your life. God gave you your life and your breath so, you must have love for the God within you that is equal to loving the God in someone else. I am not judging you, but I do want you to understand the difference between emotional love and devotional love.

A love that distracts you, upsets you and brings you no peace is very emotional. The love that brings you peace, harmony and the ability to be great and graceful is a divine love. The emotional love is limited and has an end. A devotional love inspires you to greatness.

It is natural for you to want to have the love of a man. You can fulfill this love when you marry. For now, inspire yourself to love the God and Guru that gave you these deep feelings of love for this man. Channel these feelings into a devotion to the rehit maryada and your experience of your own excellance and grace.

For the next 90 days do this meditation at sunrise and sunset. Relax onto your back, arms at your sides. Inhale deeply and hold the breath...recite with your mind "I am grace of God" 10 x. Then exhale, and hold the breath out...and recite with your mind "I am grace of God". Do this ten times.

Then, sit up. Place your left hand at right angles to your body. Tense your pinky finger..and recite out loud " I am grace of God" 5x
Tense your ring finger...and recite out loud "I am grace of God" 5 x
Repeat this for each of the remaining 3 fingers, individually.

Thid meditation will bring you the love of the grace of your own divinity. It will tip your aura in Gold and will protect your grace and bring only positive love to you.
