Why does Sikhism introduce a husband as a lord?
Anonymous Ji in Sikhism husband is not Lord. In Gurbani it is mentioned that there is only ONE HUSBAND GOD and we all are HIS wives. All human beings are metaphorically called females (Soul Bride) and only ONE MALE HUSBAND GOD. That will answer your other questions as well. I need to cut myselg piecRead more

"Abandon your love for your children and wife." SGGS 141. Why does Sikhism call for renunciation of wifely love, does it not encourage domestic violence?

Anonymous ji in this Shabd Guru ji is not telling us not to love your wife and children. Gurus were also married and had children. They loved them. We need to understand difference between Love and Attachment ਮੋਹ. Love is unconditional and Attachment is conditional. For Love one can sacrifice everything but for Attachment one gets egoistic and asks wife or children to sacrifice themselves and their needs. It is Attachment when one says if you cannot be mine, you cannot be for others as well. That leads to murder and sometimes murder suicide. That leads to honour killing of children. This goes for both spouses. It is not only for men not to get attached to their wife and children, it is for wife as well. This is what Guru Ji meant in this Shabd.

HayyrishRaaj ji according to Gurbani there is no difference between plants and animals. God in Its perfection has designed all things. We eat the flesh as part of the natural order of things designed by God. Human beings have been eating meat and vegetables for millions of years. God has not designed human beings to eat meat by mistake. In all living beings there is a breath. They are all identical in matter and within all is the same light of God. ਜਲਿ ਥਲਿ ਮਹੀਅਲਿ ਪੂਰਿਆ ਰਵਿਆ ਵਿਚਿ ਵਣਾ ॥AGGS 133 (Jal Thal Mehial Puria Ravia Vich Vna). The God is totally pervading the water, the land, and all space. It is contained in the vegetation as well. All grains have living beings. So no one is vegetarian. There is no difference between beef and pig. Sikh can eat any meat. We kill living creatures like mosquitoes, flies, rats, cockroaches. If that is not sin, then killing animals for food is also not sin. The only things forbidden to the Sikhs are tobacco, drugs and alcohol (Intoxicants). Enshrining the Virtues of the God in mind (Mann), are more important than quarrelling over eating or not eating meat.

Being a Punjabi is different from being a Sikh. A Sikh can be Punjabi but Punjabi does nor mean a Sikh. Punjabies are Hindus, Moslems and Sikhs.

After taking your cleansing bath, remember your God (Get Spiritual Knowledge and Wisdom from Bani), mind (Mann) and body shall be free of disease. Guru is emphasizing importance of cleaning the body with daily bath and then cleaning the mind (Mann) of effect of Maya.
Is it beneficial to practice writing “Satnam Waheguru” repeatedly on a notepad?
Guru says: ਰਾਮ ਰਾਮ ਸਭੁ ਕੋ ਕਹੈ ਕਹਿਐ ਰਾਮੁ ਨ ਹੋਇ ॥ ਗੁਰ ਪਰਸਾਦੀ ਰਾਮੁ ਮਨਿ ਵਸੈ ਤਾ ਫਲੁ ਪਾਵੈ ਕੋਇ ॥੧॥ AGGS 491 Ram Ram Sabh Ko Kehai Kehiai Ram N Hoe || Gur Parasadi Ram Mann Vasai Ta Fal Pavai Koe ||1|| If someone chants, repetitively only by tongue Ram, Ram or the preferred Name of God; by such chanting, thRead more
Guru says: ਰਾਮ ਰਾਮ ਸਭੁ ਕੋ ਕਹੈ ਕਹਿਐ ਰਾਮੁ ਨ ਹੋਇ ॥ ਗੁਰ ਪਰਸਾਦੀ ਰਾਮੁ ਮਨਿ ਵਸੈ ਤਾ ਫਲੁ ਪਾਵੈ ਕੋਇ ॥੧॥ AGGS 491
Ram Ram Sabh Ko Kehai Kehiai Ram N Hoe || Gur Parasadi Ram Mann Vasai Ta Fal Pavai Koe ||1||
If someone chants, repetitively only by tongue Ram, Ram or the preferred Name of God; by such chanting, the God can’t be realized. The fruit of realization of God is through the grace of enlightenment.
So writing on a paper or repeating one word repeatedly is meaningless.
What Guru says we should do:
ਸਾਸਿ ਸਾਸਿ ਸਿਮਰਹੁ ਗੋਬਿੰਦ ॥ ਮਨ ਅੰਤਰ ਕੀ ਉਤਰੈ ਚਿੰਦ ॥ AGGS 295
Sas Sas Simarahu Gobind || Mann Antar Ki Otarai Chind ||
Chant the Name of the God with every breath and all worries and anxieties of the mind (Mann) will go away.
ਊਠਤ ਬੈਠਤ ਸੋਵਤ ਧਿਆਈਐ ॥ ਮਾਰਗਿ ਚਲਤ ਹਰੇ ਹਰਿ ਗਾਈਐ ॥੧॥ AGGS 386
Oothat Baithat Sovat Dhiayai || Marag Chalat Hare Har Gayai ||1||
Chant the Name of the God while standing, sitting, sleeping and walking on the way.
How can one chant the Name (Naam) of the God with every breath, sitting, standing, sleeping and walking? Is it possible to chant while sleeping, working in the office, shop etc.? It is not possible. What Guru meant is to remember the spiritual knowledge and wisdom about virtues of the God all the time, with every breath. When we remember God every moment of our life, we will never do anything wrong in our life. Whenever we think of harming others we will remember God and stop it. We will not ask for bribe, not see women as sexual object and will not indulge in sexual harassment, not get angry when someone uses bad language for us, not get jealous of others wealth and get greedy, not look at our spouse and children as our property that they should obey us and we will not be egoistic.
