I had been a amritari for atleast two years before I ate meat.

After I ate meat I thought I should take the kirpan off.So I took it off.
Before I ate meat I kept on getting these visualizations of Guru Nanak Dev Ji.
Now I don't.I feel bad.Also when I used to do jap I quickly lost control of my body in less than 10 seconds.I felt so free.It was like I was floating,now its not like it was.
I also have another question I fell in love with a white girl.Do I have to leave her or what.
Sorry for this long question.
(REPLY) Did you know that you can take Amrit again? You will have to be questioned by the Panj, and tell them why you need to take it again, since you broke your commitment. Guru is always there for us, just like the sun is shining, but when we turn our backs, we can't see the light.
As for the "white" girl, I presume you mean a non-Indian. The color of someone's skin doesn't matter, what does matter is if you share the same goals in life, if you share the same spiritual understanding. If you are truly in love, you will want to marry, and marriage means that you are willing to merge not only your bodies, but to intertwine your two souls into one. "Falling" in love doesn't sound very uplifting, even the words describe a lowering of consciousness! Love, on the other hand is an exalted state of giving, of willingness to sacrifice for the other person. You have a lot to think about. Your first step is to get rid of your guilt from eating the meat, and the only way I know you can do that is to recommit to living as Amritdhari. May God and Guru bless and guide you. SP
